Hi guys, just wanna ask u guys something. I recently won an lucky draw for an cherry mx mech kb and was given a choice to get the red or brown switches. Just wanna know which is better cuz its the first time for me to get a mech, I was using an Microsoft membrane keyboard since many many years ago. So which I should choose? I type a lot and game now and then too. Hope to hear from u guys.

thanks for the reply. I'm really new to these mech thingy. What I read from online and reviews is red is more noisier without tactile bump whereas the brown is more silent with the tactile bump is it?

Whoa didn't expect to see u here! Haha.
I think with so many of you recommending brown, I will go for the brown. Will get it this Wednesday and see how it goes.
Just wondering one more thing, is all mech keyboard can be modded to add backlit led in it? Or only certain ones?

alright thanks for the input guys, will get the keyboard on Wednesday.

hi guys, with all those who recommended me the Brown switches, Thank You! I was at the shop and testing out the red and brown switches. Some how in the end I still feel the brown switches are suitable for me.
Here's the cherry mech that I got. It's nothing fancy but its my first mech. ^^

xD Last time I don't understand why people wanna spend so much on mech keyboard. But the first time when I plug in the mech kb and start typing it really felt so different compared to membrane.
Hehe thanks again for u guys input really sastified with it. ^^

but wanna know is it possible to mod an LED into it. I'm more curious about that.

awww~~ alright

yaaa I saw the EL Wire Mod on youtube and it seems do-able. But still I'm checking the price for the EL Wire.

guys wanna ask where I can get WASD keycaps ah? Mind despite new and using it for just less than a week can see the WASD starts fading off already T__T

linkie linkie

yup I'm using one. Its quite decent actually. Just very basic mech kb. Only thing I cannot stand is the words fades off quite fast ._." especially wasd. ><
