Curious about this too.

Also, any news about your upcoming budget acrylic custom? I suspect you're still busy with your TGR Jane right now.

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.

For MOBA or RTS, yes, it's pretty good. Prevents misclicking, but you're not gonna like if you play FPS games heavily, which you may prefer Reds over anything else. Besides, I think the Black is the better alternative to Greens for gaming, if you like the Greens but want to game heavily.

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.

Probably not on some, like the bottom row? I use the Blackwidow quite frequently but I can't really remember.

Or you can just find a set for only the characters and find other sets for the modifiers.

The one that is very active in this very own thread is StoreUni (@quovadis123). http://www.storeuni.com/collections/keycaps-set

There are also some others, but most of them are the usual Tai Hao keycaps. I believe Ultimate.Zone sells PBT keycaps too.

PM'd. My fingers and eyes are very eager for some PBT blank keycaps lol.

That's so beautiful.

Use it however you like it. If you're talking about the LED, try checking out the cool Music Visualiser plugin. It's hella cool.

I think white on blacks or black on whites will do. I used to be able to see my non backlit keyboard just fine in the dark since they are white on blacks.

Else it's all muscle memories.

Happy New Year everyone. Just heard from home that my new set of keycaps from @quovadis123 have arrived safely.

Can't wait to go back and put them on my keyboard.

Life, man. Can't do anything. Just a few more days before I can enjoy my new set of keycaps.

Gonna try them with and without O-rings. How they feel and how they sound. Gonna have to memorise the layout of this keyboard first before then. Those are blank keycaps lol, the new ones.

I like linears only when playing rhythm games like O2Jam or osu!mania. Lol. I feel that the most important thing when it comes to linears is the chassis of the keyboard. Some produces really nice sound, and feel.

I particularly like the SteelSeries Apex M800. The switches are light like a feather, but is actually very nice to type on. Not to mention the godly LED. I played minesweeper and snake games on it lol.

Low profile keycaps are sometimes fun, but too low is very annoying and hard to type on IMO. I tend to hit the keys hard, pure satisfaction.

What can I do, I have big, fat, bony fingers.

I believe there are some E-Elements RGB that goes for pretty cheap.

Also, Granite DSA on Massdrop. Beautiful.

If it's MX compatible switch, then you just need to check for the layout. But if you get a non-gaming keyboard, you most likely won't have any issues.

Well, since you don't care about the switches you might as well just lool for the one with the most customizable backlighting. That's what you want, but cheap ones probably can't.

I talked about the SteelSeries Apex M800 the other day, if any of you noticed (lol) but anyway, here's some pics. I tried my best to take some photos, I'm really bad at photography lol.

It's pretty cool.

Then you don't know about this keyboard. I'm not talking about the lame SteelSeries Apex which is obviously a rubber dome or membrane (I can't remember), this is the Apex M800 which uses their own QS1 switch. The switch is light as a feather and really short in height too. It's so light that I can't almost feel what I'm typing, which is kinda annoying. And yup, not MX compatible. The spacebar freaked me out too when I first saw it.

Not mine, but my relative. He got it for free for reason unknowns lol.

Neither do I lol. The keycaps feels very thin and as expected, it's purely for bling-bling. They claimed it as the most programmable mechanical keyboard, maybe just the backlighting is the most programmable, I don't know. I didn't spend too much time on it, but yeah I can't play snake and minesweeper on the keyboard. So they weren't lying, perhaps?

What can I say though, it's a keyboard targeted for the "gaming" community. Most of them don't even care about the switches, how it feels and whether or not those keyboards have any impacts on their typing experience but just only for the bling-bling. When we talk about a keyboard, they all scream RGB and the software to modify the backlighting right now. It's sad lol, makes me wonder what does that have anything to do with gaming at all.

That's your first and you wrote there "reliable"? How are people gonna trust you lol?

Honestly, you're not gonna like the idea of switching keycaps unless you have the money. They're crazy expensive for some reasons.

There are some cheap sets, but it's not going to be better than your stock ones.

If you're only using it for Dota, then you don't need RM300-400. Check out @KuzumiTaiga signature, he's selling one that's cheap but pretty good. That could be good enough for you.
