I have saw a review complaining about the ping of tactile switch on this keyboard . Can I know what is the ping he described about ?? thank you

Will there be any additional tax when the kb reaches here?

Thinking of buying 1 but no idea wether will get tax or not. Wife wont be happy if knowing that I spend that amount of money for a keyboard.

Damn, gonna be fast!

Anyway, thanks for the info, really appreciate it. 

Ya I tried HHKB before, it's Topre switch and I like the tactile feeling, almost like Cherry MX Blue but without the clicking noise. The tactile in Topre might not as strong and the key press is lighter a bit, but that's the closest switch I can find that simulate Cherry MX Blue without the noise.

The so called Cherry MX Brown which claim to have the tactile feel of blue switch but without the noise is totally a lie, I tried side by side with both my left and right hand pressed at the same time, can't get the tactile feel.
Lol you go around and advertise it is it?   

Anyway I ordered one  , please take care of the item ya 

looks like oledy sold out.

bye bye novatouch. ull be in my dreams, always. 

Thanks for letting know about this case, it's really beautiful, too bad it's sold out.
I just bought a new keyboard, please don't poison me   

Btw, in term of durability, Topre switch won't last as long as Cherry MX switch right?

my 1st foray into mechanical kibod..

just bought a Redragon K553 kibod for 220...

ya.. i knw is not real cherry mx switch.. but according to reviews.. is a great budget kibod..

Can anyone recommend me a budget mechanical keyboard that below RM80? Basically i just use it play Dota 2. Thanks.

Hey guys. It's been a while since I explore MKB stuff, I'd like to ask something about MKB. My custom made Magicforce 68 Gateron White had a few switches that were spoilt ( double register) and I swapped them out. The age of the keyboard is about 6-8 months

Is this considered as normal for Gateron White since it's only 35g? The spoilt switches are the commonly used for FPS game.

I'm also thinking of building a new mini layout MKB. Any new MKB pcb available on Taobao? Budget below rm500 without the key caps.

My goal is to make MKB with Gateron Red/similar. Preferably without LED too as they're too troublesome.

sweet this is a good idea that i haven't tried out yet. i wanna see if it can make the board more quiet, too

mind to share how you did it? what brand of non-slip pad is that? where to get it?

Hi guys. Any comment on Drevo Calibur/Tyrfing? And if i purchase from armyourdesk.com will kena kastam tax?

kailh box switches arrived (black, red, brown, and white).

at first glance, imo they're smooth, have relatively less wobble stems at stock.

- black is the heavier linear;
- red is light linear;
- brown has but somewhat weaker tactile bumps at the beginning of key press (it's the opposite of cherry mx brown, which happens after key press)
- white is like cherry mx blue, which has the clicky effects (the click bar helps produce sharper effects; again, tactile bumps are different from cherry mx blue imo)

the housing of kailh box switches are different from cherry mx style switches. (mainly they're for anti-dust/water standards) these switches are all meant for smd-type leds if you're into baclklit boards.



for kailh box linear switches, the first impressions are actually not bad. now i really hope there will be silent versions of their linear switches.

btw about silent linear switches, gateron silent is a disappointment. the current better option for switches to build a silent board is still lubed cherry mx silent linear imo. (the comparison is based on what i have now; not including zilents mod or the zeal silents/zilents)

nice! bro you're a heavy tactile guy, kailh box brown is just like cherry mx brown in terms of spring weight. i guess you will swap at least the springs later lol

edit: i have done lubing for kailh box red. (i have read that kailh box switches are pre-lubed; however, just to be sure, i lubed them. again.)

imo,
- the improvement of switch smoothness is not significant after lubing. (compared to cherry mx and gateron switches. for these two you will notice the change of smoothness right away, with cherry mx more apparent than gateron) i think they're actually pre-lubed already. (this is actually not bad. you can just grab these box switches, enjoy the nice smoothness out-of-box, without doing anything!)

- the silencing effect with thick lube is also not that noticeable. (maybe i did it wrong; i just painted all the contact points between stems and housing, and its spring, that i think will cause frictions)

what keycap set is this? damn sexy
