such a clean wyse compared to mine which was dismembered by me just for the switches haha!

i'm liking the layout. making the teensy mod to try and use it as my daily driver. the keyboard is as old as i am, 1980 baby.

A bit off topic, but where can I buy the recommended soldering kit?
RM150 seems affordable hmm.gif

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.
*
i am actually not really liking the feels on these black switches. or maybe it was the low profile key caps on that WYSE keyboard. will try it on other types of keycaps.

come on, show a picture of your cleaned-up wyse drool.gif  drool.gif
don't think there are any locally available RGB mechanical keyboards here. try taobao for the keycool although it's not using Cherry MX switch if you do not mind
*
no more WYSE, throw away all the case. i only keep the mounting plate and switches only shocking.gif

maybe keep for future projects.

QUOTE(-Hzu- @ Jan 12 2016, 11:16 PM)
I believe there are some E-Elements RGB that goes for pretty cheap.

Also, Granite DSA on Massdrop. Beautiful.
