Hi Guys!
My first post here
Since i stumbled into this thread, I would like to ask.

I have a blackwidow ultimate (i think bought somewhere in 2012 - don't remember)
There was once i was fixing my pc wiring and i think the extension cord flared up a bit (sparks)

After that the additional soundport extension on my keyboard stopped working since. Not really a big deal as i have not used it since but was wondering if this could be fixed?

Oh yeah, I'm also looking for another keyboard (more for office and my ps4 use) - wondering if there is a market for mechanical keyboards below RM 200? Just want a cheap, portable set of keyboard to carry to the office.

Sorry for the noob questions.

Thank you!

Well, it worked perfectly fine before so I did not test it on another pc.
Any person or thread here that specializes in repairing keyboards?


I came across this keyboard review but I don't think it can be found here but it does look like something I'd consider.

What about custom keyboards?

The price made me fall off my chair

It does look astounding thou.

Thank you for the lesson

I don't know what magic this place has but after a year+ of not using that extra soundport on my keyboard today it works again. lul

I need someone to help translate taobao for me haha. (Veli banana)
Okay! from today onwards will refresh garage sales page everyday

If not for my budget constraint and curiosity of trying out other keyboards i would likely get another BW =\

Nyooo your reply make me very sad. I know razer gt bad repo when it comes to the quality of most of their products, especially the headset. My kraken pro still works but the pad already peel off and the headband is peeling away after only 1 year of use.

However i used this keyboard for 3 years now and it has yet to give me any problem. Maybe it's because I've gotten used to it haha but i feel it's not that bad as people say.

I'm no keyboard expert with little knowledge of how 'premium' keys should feel and BW is overpriced(like all their products), i'm sure but i dont think it's that bad of a deal. =)

Okie Then I consider myself very fortunate that mine still works for so long haha.

Btw, I'm searching through Taobao ...found some keyboards but probably need someone to translate for me haha.

(Keycool stuff too expensive)

Want your opinions

Oh my budget < rm200 haha. Cheapskate xD.
Was advised to either get second hand (bit hard to find and dunu will get cheated anot) or search from taobao. =(

Plus most second hand i see on the market is selling for rm200+ and most of it is tenkeyless. I need the numpad because i deal with excel alot.

Question then..what would be the normal depreciation rate for a keyboard? ..for a second hand unit..used for X number of years..how much would the price go down?

What about this keyboard? Probably the cheapest full size one around lul

Instead of a wrist rest, I elevated my chair's arm rest

Well..whatever floats your goat.

I wait so long can't find seller

Maybe my budget too low =( RM 250 only and most people only selling razer. Haha I want to avoid those if possible.

Btw, where can i find a mechanical usb numpad?

I'm thinking to get a tenkeyless board first and get a mechanical numpad extension later on when got extra budget.

Another question - Now razer changed from blue/brown to green/orange switch. Is this bad? What do you guys think?

Im actually very curious to try tenkeyless since alot people say it's more ergonomic as they dont have to move their right hand across the number pad side.

So i want to try out tenkeyless and put a numpad on the right side of my mouse hand see how that works out haha.

Ok..i've heard some pretty lousy opinions about kailh so i will buy back cherry at least, even if it's razer.

Good advice

This Filco has backlighting feature? Saw the utube video looks like dont have

^

Wah damn sad I like backlighting because i'm always working in the dark lol.

Only mainstream gaming keyboards have backlighting?
