Haha I admit that Filco quality is top notch. I even fiddled with it at the shop.

But coming from Logitech G110, it makes sense for me to go for something I am familiar with.

I do take your recommendation seriously. It gave me ideas on what to look for in a Mech KB. But I do have other features I can't live by and for me its worth the sacrifice.

Btw, nice color scheme!

bro you should go and google g710+ keycaps breaking/issue you will need a replacement soon enough.
there is few option from taobao but very limited.

Hello all,

I really want to get the clear switch top from this GB on GH.
I tried to find the same stuff on taobao but to no avail. Can someone lead me to the same transparent cover on taobao.

If there's none on taobao, I might go ahead and buy it from GH.
So if someone wants to get the clear cover and share the shipping cost from US to Malaysia, PM me.

I'm based Kuching Sarawa though.  blush.gif

ASUS STRIX Tactic PRO Gaming Keyboard, you guys got any opinions on it? I am no pro, but, I feel it's "MEH". It's USD 170...  doh.gif

if you just want quality can go for filco both TKL OR Fullsize available but only the tkl fits your budget.

err there's a promotion on razer blackwidow ultimate which cost about rm 339 from rm 449
i m deciding whether to get cm storm trigger or BWU with the price of only 339
cm storm original price
which 1 is more worth it to get?
*
if you dont mind cloned cherry mx switches which reported inconsistency issue and you do not plan to change keycap than go ahead as long as you dont regret your decision later.
Razer is a brand i will not recommend due to quality issue.
and for your information they used to sell 449 for the original Cherry mx switches than after change to cloned switches they still selling the same price until end of last year.rm3xx is the new price just some retailer want to earn money off you.

QUOTE(ck.chunkeat @ Mar 7 2015, 12:41 AM)
thanks so much for clarifying the difference between the springs with me. that kinda confirms what i initially think of it, because it doesn't really make sense to say that a 62g spring is lighter than a 60g force switch and I sort of figure out that it meant the bottom weight.

That kinda makes me wanna make the mod immediately.  drool.gif I'm all in for a lighter switch but heavier than mx red. However I'm worried because my keyboard is still new and is currently under warranty, I do know that switching the springs means that I have to void the warranty due to swapping springs requires desoldering the switches.

Where can I buy those springs? and should i change them? from what i know, the only problem for mkb is either led dying or the switch causing some double press issues. Which 1, my board doesn't have much led and i don't really use them so i don't have to worry. 2, I don't hear much double press problem and the only double press problem that i hear are from razer keyboards..
I found that group buy but i thought of not spending so much again right after I buy the keyboard. Might just want to try a 37 set pbt first, the most i want is also a 87 set, does the group buy have link for 87 set? but from what is see, its for full size... or i could save up and buy some second hand ones that some of you might have buy but didn't use much. biggrin.gif
*
there is 87 set but most of the 87 set price is only RMB 30-50 less than fullset so its not worth getting 87, and also easier to sell fullset than 87.
ad for 37 will not look nice if you dont have a matching set.

Guys, i have some question. Are these keycaps good to get?

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r....=1&abbucket=12#

I like the one which is grey and black. Since it's not white, i think it might be less likely to have discoloration..
*
those are taihao ABS double shot is one of the best value keycaps and you can get them locally from cyntrix tech or their re-seller like heavyarms
https://www.facebook.com/cyntrixtech?fref=ts
if you are interested in the dolch colour i do have a set that i am selling.

I was expecting to be charged for over rm100 for 25usd from the GH group buy.. sad.gif

That's why I was hoping that sifu 016 will have some extra gateron black and will be kind enough to sell me some. sad.gif

you dont have to wait for a group buy just look for a agent and get directly taobao its really cheap

Hmm, how much would it be if i were to get from agent? @@

Sorry, not too familiar with taobao stuff.
*
most agent charge 1% fee and RM13-15 per kg
and the switches is RMB1.3 per switches x 100 =RMB130 =RM77
Shop to china warehouse is RMB10 =RM5.9
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10....&id=39999080987

so this is rough estimate i am not a agent but i bought few times from taobao so i am just giving advice base on what i know

Upon googling & browsing via lelong,vortex pokerII is about 70 ringgit lesser than a ducky mini.. Between this 2,which will be a good buy in term of build quality,price,software support?
*
poker better if you want to mod the keyboard for example you can get after market aluminium case install leds in the future.
as for ducky its comes with dual colour leds and it has a aluminium top plate which looks nice.
both quality is ok but poker is coming out with their new poker 3 very soon.
if you buying from heavyarms their KBP Paradise V60 Mini 60% is the same with poker with different branding thats all

You sure you want that low profile case?  shocking.gif

well case profile is a personal preference. i actually don't mind try low profile case and see what is the difference and base on picture the difference is not that much but i might be wrong.
