just want to share the profile of the GMK Dolch is indeed lower than CC - is this because this Dolch is DCS or what?

Absolutely. I have forgotten how much I love the clickiness of MX Blues. It's like visiting an old love; lol. I have shoved my RealForce 55g into the shelf and using the 2TU at home as daily driver now. Let's see how long that last. But the switches are a bit too light to my liking. Love the form factor, definitely love the disco lights that become brighter and brighter as I typed and then fade to nothing when I stopped typing. Super duper gadgetry but still fun, nonetheless.

I gotta admit that I really like stock Clears, so I think I will enjoy MX Green once my JD40 is assembled and shipped. But I really wonder how practical JD40 is in real life.

want to ask since you love 60%
how is it ? is it piratical ? why people hype so much about 60% ? hmm.gif
*
yeah. I use a HHKB at work so I use it almost 9 hours daily. I have no problems with 60% - that is how practical it is. The few times I have problems is when I needed to do heavy Excel work, ie I needed the arrow clusters. Then pressing FN keys and navigating in Excel was a pain! Other than that, 60% is my choice! Now I am using the 2TU at home and it was ok so far. Haven't really game with it yet, so can't comment.

Even though they are all Topre: FC660C, HHKB Pro 2 and RealForce, people claimed that they all feel different. I have not tried the FC660C myself so I can't really comment. HHKB is one of a kind because it is case mounted, so it gives out a totally different feel and sound - it's a very unique keyboard. You can't go wrong with HHKB if you have to choose between FC660C and HHKB. But if you went with FC660C, you will be left wondering what's the big deal with HHKB and will want one eventually.

But if one chose HHKB, won't one be wondering what's the real hype over FC660C?
Assuming first time experience with Topre of course.

I have not known anyone who has a HHKB who thinks of FC660C; normally it is the other way around.

Heeey so after few days whats your thoughts on the 55g mx blues?  biggrin.gif

Too light for my liking. I think for people who prefers light switch, it's a good combo - light and clicky. I don't find that I type faster with it, strangely, maybe my fingers, which are used to heavier switch, are expecting something before moving on to the next key press. It's kinda like there are some very small pauses so I think it's a very interesting board/switch for me. This is also the first time I use a GMK made caps and I must say it gives a good solid feel, despite being a ABS. And I really like the caps.

Nothing wrong with ABS. Just that my preferences is PBT. As I have mentioned, my daily driver is HHKB and RealForce, both using PBT. Before that, my 60% was a Poker 2, which also use PBT. So I am bias towards PBT feel. When I use a ABS, the caps is just too smooth on my finger to my liking.

So dadude, the 55g MX Bluex that was mentioned above is my Korean custom. It is very light and therefore, as clicky as well. And I put in GMK Dolch, which is ABS - I think GMK Dolch is thick ABS, but yeah, it feels good in a tacticle and clicky switch. So, I agree with you biggrin.gif

Which part of my post did I imply I'm not happy with my Dolch? On the contrary I love it.
That was why I said "despite ABS" but that doesn't mean I hated it.

How much you donate?
I know a ppl donated USD10 just won a bb. sweat.gif

I doubt that is the case. I always leave the donation as default i.e. usd$2. BunnyLake is an honorable man and does not just give dibs because of petty stuff like this le.

So far I am 2/5 when it comes to raffles system so I am pretty sure it is totally random.

You can buy and try.
Hope you will appreciate the feel.
Veterans tried many switches before reach a conclusion it's the best for linear.

Although it's not recommended for newcomers to get vintage black directly.
It's same like Topre, if you get Topre at the beginning before you tried other tactile, you will think Topre is pretty normal feel.
So, will sell the Topre off at the end of the day.
And please don't get 55g in the beginning also, same story.

Start at level 1, end your game at level 100.
Need farming before you understand what is end game.
Get end game item at the beginning, you don't understand the passion behind keyboard.

Don't start your game at level 100, and get end game directly.
People won't jelly, just pity the great keyboard falls to the hand of sohigh ppl.
It's just my humble advice for keyboard enthusiasts.  nod.gif

Great insight!

I have used stock black for 6 months on a Noppoo and hated it.
I doubt I will like vintage blacks. No end game for me? blink.gif cry.gif
