Now looking for DAC, or just stick with Aune T1 DAC, and then focus on keyboard. I'm gonna need aluminum casing, maybe Hammer, FMJ, or LZ CE if I'm lucky and no more upgrade. One 60% keyboard with aluminum casing and imsto classic keycaps is my end game. No more buy or sell again. sweat.gif

It break their heart when people mentioning their rival such as CM Storm. laugh.gif The backlit is not really an issue as it can be turn off. Oh Corsair, change your layout and you can beat your rival. But TBH, even though I'm a gamer I don't think gamers design make you a gamer. But most gamers want that kind of design, to be different from ordinary keyboard.

I don't see any starcraft progamer use "gaming" keyboard. the design and macro are just gimmick imo

The funny thing is when a gamer said macro is a must. After buy standard mechanical keyboard,  they didn't complaint regarding the absent of macro key. laugh.gif
I don't think so. Imagine Razer with pink keycaps. It's more like a pink hearted gamers. laugh.gif Pink means not pro. laugh.gif From what I observe in Dota 2 facebook group, when someone ask what keyboard should they buy, the first brand is Razer BWU, followed by Logitech because Razer sucks. Then Corsair fan came in, bashing them all. CM fan will try to join the crowd and they will say CM design too common. And that's where Roccat and Armageddon come in.  thumbup.gif

Recent case, this fellow fall in love with pink white Limited Edition Ducky, and I support him. And I was the only person that ask him to buy Ducky. And another guy attached lowyat.net mechanical V18 link. And the rest, gaming link, review, and gaming brand. And they start to bash each other. doh.gif

QUOTE(justnits @ Dec 26 2013, 05:07 PM)
i'm going to have to assume.
the led you want for your keyboard are the 3mm size.

there's the regular rounded top led and there's a square led.
from what i gather, square shaped 3mm led is the best for keyboard as it disperse the light more evenly in broader angle compared to rounded led which tend to focus in where it's pointing.
EDIT: seems like both square and round have focus and spread light type. the only other reason it's better is because of square type is shorter and bottoming out have less chance to hit on the led

and as for colours, u'll have to take note of the different voltage specification for certain colours.
majority are 3.0-3.2v whereas some have lower voltage specification.
unless your board has a variable resistor (such as keycool's new backlit board) you'll have uneven led brightness if you mixed led with different voltage using the same resistor value. this might cause damage to your board also in some situation.
best way to avoid this is this: 1) use the same voltage spec led. 2) change the resistor on your board for that particular led to match with the majority.(u'll need to do calculations)

i hope i answered your question :swt:

thank you very much for the detailed explanation. notworthy.gif

i don't think poker2 is a good board for gaming. the lack of f rows and arrow keys sometimes can be a pain in ass blink.gif

True, that is why I'm preferring red switch as many osu players also use red switch.

At the same time I like the small size of Poker 2 so I'm interested to get a Poker 2 with mx red as my next keyboard.  rclxms.gif

EDIT: Anyone here uses Poker 2 for gaming and found it inconvenience because of its layout? I'm not hardcore gamer though. *inb4 anyone mention bout BlackWidow*

i am using it for starcraft, it is fine for me.
