Go for Filco Majestouch 2 TKL.
For Filco Majestouch 2 TKL, all keys can be remap including FN.

Alright,then i guess i probably go for the yellow one,since it doesn't have any Fn/media keys laugh.gif from the first page,Inter-Asia is the distributor for Filco,do they accept walk-in?

Hi, i'm a newbie to mech keyboards.

My budget is around RM500.

What brand should i go for?

I prioritise Cherry MX Blue and build quality over anything.

I don't really mind about the backlighting, i think it's a gimmick and i don't wanna stress when one of the LEDs die.

Been looking at DAS, anyone got any other recommendations?

Cheers.

go for Filco as recommended by quovadis123 thumbup.gif thumbup.gif went to Lowyat test a few keyboard with diff switch (C-zone was nice enough to open the boxes for me to play around with a few keyboards)
Typed on a few Filco and Ducky,end up buying a Filco MX blue

now shopping Taobao for keycap,white PBT and Nyan cat set wub.gif

As much as i wanna get a Filco, I don't think I will be willing to shell out RM500 for a keyboard.

I'll probably end up with a low end ducky.

Anyone had experiences with Ducky Zeros?

i think keyboard is cheap,keycaps are expensive shakehead.gif just a white 87 keys PBT,1 set Nyan cat,1 set colour (shift ctrl alt..etc),keycap puller cost 200+

Went to c-zone and gadgetzone at digital mall today. Couldn't find any Ducky's or CM Storm's within 300-350 cuz no more stock, possibly not bringing in also. Guess I would have to look elsewhere.  cry.gif

Hey guys i got a problem with my Ducky Shine 3. Please do refer to my image here : http://imgur.com/a/L43m5
The problem i got is that when i press FN+F9 , the F5 LED will light up while F1-F4 & F6-F8 didnt light up. At 1st only 17 LED r dead, i do the soldering but even more LED die. I dont even know why, probably because i got shocked a few time during soldering process? will this cause more led to die?

shocked?u should check your soldering iron,been soldering for almost 10 years,never got shocked before while soldering sweat.gif
