QUOTE(-Hzu- @ Dec 16 2015, 11:27 PM) Someone is selling his Poker II in the Facebook group. Not sure if he still wants to sell it or if it's already sold. POK3R is more expensive, and if you don't care about its aluminum case, then Poker II should suffice. However, if you really want POK3R, then Ultimate.Zone is selling them for almost RM600, not over. Went to Ultimate.Zone on Tuesday and saw the Pok3r there, gosh the price is RM589 if im not mistaken... I was kind of stunned by the price of Poker, the package also didnt include other goodies like the extra modifiers or keypuller like Poker II, guess the alu casing is really the expensive part here

QUOTE(-Hzu- @ Dec 16 2015, 04:23 PM) Don't get confused with the actual Cherry MX Green switch, as they are in no way fun for gaming and is probably the heaviest switch out there. But it like them the most, and I use it for both gaming and typing. The Green on the Blackwidow is a variant of the Cherry MX Blue, they should feel almost the same. Yeah. I wasn't comparing the MX Greens and Razer's Green switches. I was merely saying that the Razer's Green switches are like a hybrid of the Cherry MX Blue clickyness and Cherry MX Red responsiveness.

QUOTE(ncys1 @ Dec 16 2015, 10:47 PM) I'm interested in trying out a 60%, thinking of buying a POK3R. Do they really cost RM600+? If anybody can point in the direction of a better deal, I'd appreciate it. pok3r wont be more than 600. i was about to get pok3r last time but its quite heavy and i need to be mobile with my kibod. bought pokerII, had never regretted it -lightweight, sanded down for low profile, put on granite keycaps from massdrop, orings, self install LED. demm. gooding yo,. but depends on you laa, wanna go for latest premium heavy product that only sits on ur desktop forever, go on with pok3r.

If POK3R is heavy, then I think I'll take Poker 2 also.

Got 2 Acer PS2 mech keyboard at least 15 years old Hmm, I didn't know that Acer made any mech kb back then, lol. Maybe I'm too new. Usually old keyboards don't worth that much money anymore, even Cherry corp. keyboards. Usually keyboards that worth some money are like custom korean keyboards and some old keyboards that have some really rare switches in it like vintage black or something else in it or rare, mint and NIB. Hope this helps

Bought a cherry brown rapid-i to replace my 2 year old cherry red poker2 as i miss those f1-12 buttons.
I got to say maybe i should have gone for cherry blue but still im liking this tactile sensation more than cherry red on the first day haha.
Still undecided what to do with my poker2 as it is aesthetically more pleasing to my eyes. My brother is using mac so seem abit pointless to pass it to him.
Not very interested in spending much on keycaps but the rubberized keycap on massdrop looks refreshing and tempting. It might make this rapid-i looks better maybe...

Other than that, it behaves like a normal keyboard like you use in Windows. I use mkb in linux, win, mac. Just don't worry, pass your poker 2 to your brother.  "Enjoy your feeling"
