I prefer to use the third party Corsair Effects Engine though.

thanks for sharing. wasn't aware 3rd party software existed for this. but I personally have no problems with Corsair's CUE though.

(p.s. upon googling for CEE, I found out that it was created by this geeky chick with vampire teeth #1 #2 LOL)

Yes, they can order stuff for you if they don't have the stock. That's what they usually do for me.

Haha.. Just let me know who is the distro behind.. Inter ASIA is sole distro for Filco locally. smile.gif
Just want to know if your board rosak, where you can get warranty from?

I recently also know some boards imported will not warranty under local distro/brand..
Like if your board is from UK, then warranty will not cover even in Malaysia. smile.gif

warranty never once come into my mind concerning mechanical keyboards, of course i stray away from brands that are prone to failing with my experience according the brands.

so.. if all hell break loose.. i think id opt to fix it myself than going to warranty. lol

Just dropped by ultimate.zone. Filco MX pink is sold out.
Btw, just had a brief try at BW X with the new Razer Green. Despite being Razer, I've gotta admit that those switches are really good. Much smoother than its Cherry MX blue counterpart. Wonder how will it be on thick PBTs.

I understand they teased it 2 days ago? Although it's still not up on their website

Would probably get it if it were < $175

Glorious MX Pink! I've written a review in GH

Link (there are in depth review of the switch, the sound, what I'm reviewing is based on the sound/feeling that I felt) -

Since I've heard of the 'MX Pinks' and reading the reviews here in GH, and knowing that they are pretty close to a Topre in terms of smoothness, I have to give them a try.

I won't go into details as to taking the switch out as OP had already had a much in depth review on them, I am just going into how I feel about the keyboard.

Now I have had numerous MX Reds in the past, of which I still own some of them today, some hidden away. Such as the Aorus K7, Ducky 9087g2 (At least that's the name I remember..), CM Rapid I, and so on. I have also owned KMAC2 with 62g vintage blacks, also some stock MX black keyboards, like Steelseries 6gv2, CM Trigger. Also currently have these tactile keyboards in stash - Cheats 62g MX Clear, CM Rapid I MX Brown, CM QFR MX Blue, Topre 87 modified with 45g alphas, and the rest 55g, oiled stabs. I have also owned several Filcos in the past (White casing, camo casing, black casing all browns unfortunately.)

Feeling wise - oh boy, MX reds were like typing on a cloud of boobs? These are like natural size D/E feeling (I know how they felt.. until she left me...), soft, smooth. I think that's enough of an example to understand how smooth these are. MX reds feels a little bit empty now comparing it to MX pink, as what I read in here, it is somewhat closer to what a Topre would feel, but without the tactile that Topre has. I loved gaming on MX reds, the Aorus K7 was my keyboard of choice for gaming for awhile since they've been given to me by the Gigabyte boys, so no doubt I would prefer these on gaming (have yet to try though), not to say that Topre's are bad for gaming, they are great as well.

I am currently waiting on my EnjoyPBT set to get to me, and then I'll compare these again. From the videos in this thread, the thick cherry keycaps seems to be very close to what I would want, so I'll just wait until the EnjoyPBT to arrive.


SIDENOTE - the keyboard feels a little bit sturdier + heavier for some reason, compare to other Filcos that I've had before. Not sure if they've changed OEM or something, but by looking at the pictures in this thread, it doesn't seem like it... if that's the case, seems like they've buffed it up a little bit. It just seems a little bit more solid now.

Didn't realise I've been gaming on D/E boobs for months. Thanks for the heads up. biggrin.gif
