MasterKeys S PBT..

yeah! kinda wish I got the Pro S instead, so I can use it with the norbauer case later on... oh well!

I’m looking forward to trying their new tkl from cm too.

Although pro s still acts weird sometimes, it’s my current primary for gaming.

i suggest u change ur keycaps soon.
i lost my 'S'-key legend because of excessive dota night.
its laser etched PBT iinm?

Pad printed, according to Deskthority.
I've been looking at keycaps, but damn they are expensive. I thought of getting ABS ones from china/kbdfans, but I think i'll hold off for awhile hahaha.

ok thanks for correcting. it is pad printed.
and yea, as per review,

"Unfortunately CM went with pad printing for the legends, making the use of PBT material rather meaningless. A real shame because the legends will soon wear off and you'll need to replace the keycaps anyway (PBT or not)."

and i can confirm that coz my legends are almost gone after 1 night of heavy gaming.

just start off by buying any cheap ones. but u will feel the diff between thick n thin keycaps.

Hi guys

I am looking for mechanical keyboard with illumination (more to office typing/coding wont mind of the clicky sounds,with some casual gaming)
any recommendation? Budget is around 200 or less
Thanks!

firstly note that boards with better qualities start at myr 350 or above (might not come with led). with below 200 + a little topup, you can check out the garage sales section for boards with gateron switches.

if you're really tight on budget, you can get something with outemu switches, like those from 1st player or tecware.

for office use, it's best to have brown (tactile) or red (linear) switches.

tecware phantom rgb is best choice.solid built and quality

Hi guys, I'm looking to buy some DSA profile keycaps to fill up a board.

I don't care about the legends or colors of the caps, but blanks and symbols preferred.

I need the following sizes:
6x 1.25u
2x 1.5u
2x 1u

I was thinking RM4 a cap, but price negotiable. I'm looking for stuff you guys want to get rid of, nothing premium as it's not a premium board, thanks!

Was wondering if anyone can recommend a decent cheap "board" to start as a base for modding?

Basically I found myself with a whole full keyboard set of Cherry MX brown switches. Thinking of buying a sturdy cheaper brand, desoldering the old switches to replace with MX browns.

Preferably, non backlit.

it's more like caps for modifiers, not just random dsa caps. maybe some of them are harder to get here.

alternatively, you should go to aliexpress or taobao to get what you want at cheaper price.

maybe you can find something worthy at mymkb market fb page or garage sales section here.

why not custom built gh60 board..so nice

Anybody interested in Razer Ornata Chroma or Ducky Zero DK2108 Mx Brown? Selling mine. Link in my thread.

Getting myself an iKBC F108.

nice

about ikbc, i almost forgot about this, but i think it's useless to wait for their mf series locally anymore. it's available for so long almost everywhere. just not here (now v2 already)

Well, I didn't back for years, and Filco seems to die down?
Still recommend for daily typing?
Mine still rock solid after all these years. Looking for Full size for office use since I will be handling more "numbers" task from now on. Any good alternative to Filco great typing feels? And erm, no customs please... Thank you in advance.
Cheers to those still subs and modding mech keyboards.

filco ceased. Ran out of business, although we still recommend it.

Thanks for reply. I searched Ducky and it seems One receive quite a numbers of praise, is the typing feels as solid as Filco?
I searched and no direct comparison between those 2, wonder anyone tried both?

filco is still one of the best prebuilt brands, and it's still one of the cheapest if you considered its solid build qualities.

uh? ceased? that means we can only get it by importing now? that's bad news.

edit: that also means new mkb users don't have a good reference to start with. other alternatives are not exactly easy to get locally too. (leopold; varmilo) that's really bad.
