I bought this from Taobao. From this guy/girl:
https://world.tmall.com/item/43367765788.ht...0714.0.0.rxbR1J

Anyway, I found out the culprit. It's the USB extension cable I'm using. Maybe it's the extra voltage needed to power the keyboard. As long as I do not fiddle with the LED brightness or LED cycle, it will work fine. Anyway, now I'm plugging it straight to my laptop and it's working like a charm.

So, from my short use since this morning, I can safely say this is so going to replace my red switch! Never tried Topre or the Novatouch before but the sound made by this thing... thok thok thok... 

I just got mine and I'm unimpressed to say the least.

The quality of the moulded plastic case is shoddy (worse than many membrane kbs), the sliders are scratchy on both the upstroke & downstroke (I would go as far as to say they are unusable without lubrication), the RGB modes are bleh, and 3 of my keycaps have HOLES in them! 



These are just a few of my grievances. I could go on and on, but at the end of the day the RK930 is definitely NOT an accurate reflection of what Topre is supposed to feel like. Rather, it is a cheap bastardized version of the Topre experience mainly because of these factors:
1) Scratchy action
2) Factory dental bands
3) Length of sliders adjusted to compensate for said dental bands (this affects the key travel distance, more so if you choose to remove the dental bands)
4) Questionable dome weighting (55g RC930 feels lighter than 55g Topre)

No way will this board make it as part of my rotation, let alone become my daily driver. To anybody that wants to own Topre but can't yet afford one: Save your money. This is not a shortcut answer. I am surprised this board got a good review on Massdrop, now I know why Geekhack people always complain that Massdrop people are noobs.

If you have not tried a proper Topre (or at least a Novatouch) before, you now have a dilemma - choose to be ignorant and not try it just so you'll be oblivious to how bad the RK930 is in comparison - or try it and you might end up throwing your RK930 away.
I suggest you don't.

I ordered
Logitech G710+ Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
RM307 after discount
www.gemfive.com/my/logitech-g710-mechanical-gaming-keyboard
use may30 coupon
only 3 stocks left

You can use code may30 and get 30% almost any item on gemfive. i think minimum purchase is RM300.

was choosing this between the k70 but decided to to g710+

found code from
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3921025/+1400

Damn. Max discount of RM150. That's shitload.

If that's the case, why don't you just build the keyboard yourself?
Desoldering the switch and resolder them back is kinda troublesome though.
You can source PCB(e.g GH60), case, stabilizer and also led quite easy from taobao too.
So, I personally would recommend you to just build yourself a keyboard

I am using a yellowflower (黄花) brand solder. It's cheap and reliable, so far have worked on quite a few PCB without any issue, though my skill is still bad. The total price was around RM60 shipped iinm

Guys, if i wanna get a pbt keycap set for my k70, where should i get it other than maxkeyboard and massdrop? anywhere that i can get it with cheaper postage? from all this website postage itself cost rm50 and more alrd. and some don't even provide tracking code.

In the first link, GH60 整板 is the one with diodes and resistors presoldered, you need only switches and led and it is usable, but I'm not sure whether the stabiliser is included or not.
In the second link, GH60 主板+卫星轴 is also presoldered but stabilisers are also included.
Remember to buy the plate for mounting the switches too
Good Luck !

since its your first time, why not share your parts list and let others see if you have left out any important parts? the GH60 comes with presoldered diodes and resistors and the firmware flashed.

Hmm, for computer parts I think u wont get taxed
Btw, wont your shipping fee be expensive?
I bought switches before but the international shipping fee is expensivr as hell...

Planning to get a wireless keyboard for daily use. Not into gaming. Currently I saw a few models:

1. Logitech WIRELESS COMBO MK345:
https://www.logitech.com/en-my/product/wire...o-mk345?crid=27

2. Microsoft Wireless Desktop 850
https://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-my/p/...p-850/PY9-00018

3, Rapoo E9100P
http://www.rapoo.com/product/148

Any suggestion on which is better or any other better recommendation?

Planning to get either the Logitech or Microsoft. These two are almost identical to each other. Found one more which is DELL KM714.

I think the kit you are requesting is still fairly rare, especially it's a fulll size...
If you want RGB, why dont just go for the keyboard that cm storm is offering, although it's using cherry stab...
Meh, otherwise you can just design the PCB, case and plate yourself, problem solved.

Back to the topic, https://world.taobao.com/item/44256491567.h...96601.34.Re3Mvk is this okay for you? I think taobao has some people offering 104 full size acrylic case too, but not sure they fit it or not.
