planning to buy mech. keyboard..
brand that in my mind right now is Gigabyte Osmium with red cherry switch..
i like it since it has place to put armwrist(i really need it)..
is this model good?
or should i get different type cherry switch?
need help or opinion on this..
i am a gamer (dota2, lol, diablo) and do some light typing work..
*
switches is personal
wrist rest can buy separately
and good keyboard brands are Filco Ducky CM storm
if you do not need LEDS than go for filco for quality and what kinda of budget are you looking at
Gigabytes is not really know for their keyboard

level 3.
based on this video, it is inaccurate.
it does not shows whether keycaps rattle or not when mounted, also it does not demonstrate whether the keycap will stuck due to stabilizer (less likely happen)

my piece of advice: prepare the stabs, mount the plate, and put the switches to each stabilizer, mount keycaps and test whether it is smooth.

thanks for the advice will ask you on whatapps if i got any question about it

Palm rest.

And partly because of the design and back-lit, raised key caps compared to other mech kb.

Not good ah? Apa beza with Ducky?

its not that corsair not good but they got high LEDS failure rate and its not that you buy red get red leds there is a option of 2 colour in Malaysia BLack body with red leds or sliver body with blue Leds but sliver has being recall in Malaysia so hard to find .
why ducky because its quality thumbup.gif

Palm rest, if wanna get locally here, will cost around how much?

Honestly I don't need those extra medie keys, I never use them anyway.

So, let's say I'm looking for something other than the Corsair but it must have a red backlit keyboard and Cherry Brown switches. I heard that Cherry Brown is tactile like Blue but less noisy, I don't want something noisy tongue.gif

At the lowest price point if possible, design doesn't matter since most look similar. If you can quote a few models, it would be great smile.gif

Any from these 2 topics?

if you want palm rest quovadis123 is selling look at his signature
yes brown is tactile but i do suggest you go feel them before you make you decision you never know you might like something else
what size are you interested in ? for TKL(tenkeyless) you can go for CM storm Rapid I but comes in white leds only
if not that ducky is your best bet in Malaysia for red LEDS
or you can get this to change them to red if you go with white LEDS

I just noticed the Rosewill RK9000 with silver colour. Wow it looks good!!

Edit: Any other recommendations for budget of RM200-350 for a silver/white keyboard

1) With Red backlit keyboard (the picture below is nice but I want red backlight)

user posted image

2) With non-red backlight

***If any keyboards with nicer design with a little bit of top up, do mention it here also laugh.gif

deck got red back lit
here is a new keyboard from ducky
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.7...67942523&type=1

Red coloue back lit is really hard to find unless non standard layout from CM storm
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/934337

rosewill you need to be careful because they just started using kailh switches which is a cherry knock off

So what's the cheapest mech keyboard with red backlight? Don't need full size smile.gif

Can get anything around RM3XX? Any lubang? brows.gif

Edit: I noticed the CM Quick Fire Ultimate Red backlight from lingloong for RM335 only brows.gif

The trigger Z has a bigger keyboard base (which makes it look more spacious) and THERE'S A PALM REST!!! Only RM385 hmm.gif

Might go for Trigger Z biggrin.gif

like i said cm storm older keyboard are non standard layout means hard to find replacement keycpas if you are fine with that than go ahead if not ask cyntrix tech about the shine tkl
i dont think leds colour matters since it can be change you just put on the leds cover that i show you earlier white is the safest among all

Looks like for below RM400, CM is probably the only option for Red backlit keyboard.

CM Storm Rapid I vs Trigger Z vs QuickFire Ultimate ?

I know that Rapid I uses white LED whereas Trigger Z only has Blue LED on Blue caps (My preference is BLUE switch) but if the cost of moding the LED colour is reasonable, I might go for it, which depends on you guys experience between the 3 choices biggrin.gif

I heard that Quickfire Ultimate uses lower quality keycaps?

Cm storm latest cherry mx keyboards is the rapid -I so i think that would be a better choice and the cheapest way to change leds is led caps i told you earlier http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...728&abbucket=11
rapid i do have more lighting mode and solid build quality

i think you can pre order the ducky shine TKL but you need to contact cyntrix tech to do so

Sorry, didn't really know how it works...I mean the link you sent about the LED caps?

So at the bottom of each cap, there's an LED? If so, then how to connect all the electric circuit when I get the key caps. I always thought the LED lights are provided by the keyboard base, not the key caps.

Edit: I think I know how it works already, it's basically putting a coloured piece of plastic just above or next to the white backlight:
http://www.banggood.com/DayDream-LED-Cover...t-p-925837.html

I can't read Chinese, so is that 4.50 Yuan for 1 key cap? So changing the entire keyboard layout will cost a bomb? rclxub.gif

Can't find any info about the Ducky Shine TKL? I hope it's below RM400 as that's my budget sad.gif

Thanks for bearing with me notworthy.gif

Ducky shine 3 TKL need to pre order so price need to talk to cyntrix tech about it
ducky is good because its build quality is pretty solid and leds failure rate not that high compare to corsair

as for the led cover is 4.5 RMB so its acutally around rm2.6 for every 10
and as or colours yellow orange pink red green blue purple and white
so shipping from agent is usually rm 12 and 1% for agent fee so you can look for a agent to order for you
http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...728&abbucket=11

and yes white leds is the safest route to go because you can change by using the leds cover

Haven't put caps yet, so can't comment on how it feels. The caps are at home and I am stuck in office. In terms of width, it is shorter than HHKB because HHKB still have the bezel. 2TU doesn't have bezel. Length are almost the same. But being acrylic the bottom part of the case has some scratches. Not sure if this is acceptable for something premium like this. I guess it is inevitable. Even some CC direct from the man himself have scratches.

Edit: love the fact that it is clear acrylic so I can see the beautiful PCB. And the two stands are just flawless!
