anybody using this in KL or Malaysia? lemme test it please

Just published a review on Cooler Master MasterKeys Pro L with Intelligent RGB and Cherry MX switches.

It's include teardown as well.
The images are all optimized to 90-120kb each, friendly for local slow internet. haha

Just got myself a Corsair Strafe RGB Cherry Red for RM 400+ from Gemfive.

Can't wait for it to arrive

Finally have the money to afford an expensive keyboard.

I managed to sort out the LED issue, as expected the LED itself was okay but the resistor was busted.

I couldn't find the exact SMD resistor so I used a regular one instead.



Looks ugly but works perfectly. Will desolder & replace it with the proper SMD resistor once I've taobao-ed it.

wow! Nice! This is for my future project if I can find some time for this! Thanks for the updates on this.

It's an easy mod, you won't need to spend a lot of time on it

Opening the casing shouldn't take you more than 20 minutes if it's your first time (or 10 minutes if you're experienced).

The actual soldering takes only 5 minutes.

Hi tribaleps, do you have a working copy of the software? The one here doesn't work for me. It can't be unzipped (already tried on 3 different computers).


We must have the same thinking I did the exact same thing with the exact same lube using a toothpick + art brush to make sure the contact points were fully coated. Took me about 1 1/2 hours but I can still feel the sandiness

Overall I would say the improvement was only 30% or 40%

haha... you also need to take into consideration the last time I actually hold up a damn soldering iron was like... ummmm... my high school? and I'm in my mid 30s now. LOL~

Bro, try 7zip the next time. Anyway, I've attached the file, see if it works.

Yea, unfortunately I couldn't completely eliminate the sandiness as well...guess it is just the unpolished plastic surface.
Hopefully through some wearing out, it could feel better over time. Thought of taking it apart and sanding the stems with an ultra-fine sandpaper, but the thought of it, the handling of the springs and all, really puts me off. One day perhaps.....one day.

But despite all its shortcomings, I really enjoy the keyboard, especially the quietness of it. Tend to swap back to this from my main Filco brown.

Thanks bro, works like a charm.

Was hoping the LEDs could be set per-key rather than per-zone via the software but unfortunately they can't

Topre RGB goodness to look forward to

This is the 2nd year of Topre RGB, since they showed it last year.
Always the same "design not finalised".
But, the layout is nice, non-common Realforce layout.

The case kind of resembles a Ducky Shine

PBT keycaps and 55g? If no, no buy.

45g + cheapsui ABS Backlit key caps.

So the endgame hasn't changed. Thank God.

What end game ? HHKB 55g?

Hi guys can ask where to buy 60% keyboard near jb ? thx !

So guys, I've bought the the parts required to build my own 60% keyboard. All except for the PCB board itself. My plan is to buy GH60 board with the resistors and diodes installed. Is this the correct one?

or this?

Please help me out here as my Chinese is not that good, I don't really understand the electrical words for keyboard. I've read some guide on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboard...board_parts_on/
Some guy says that most GH60 already pre-soldered with resistor, diodes, basically everything except for the switches and LED itself. Is it true? I'm pretty worry about it, not sure if I should buy diodes and resistor separately...
