hey guys . a CC in subang jaya uses Hermes Gamdias mechanical keyboard. the feel is good. but the usability sucks for gaming.

I was playing half life LAN (yes, crossfire map biggrin.gif), I press W to move forward, and it seems like the key D is slightly sometimes "activated". So I really don't trust Hermes inexperience.

so question is, what's the best quality mechanical keyboard with back-light I can get for around RM300? Numpad is not required, but will be a bonus

Look for the second hand mechanical keyboard, probably you can get less than 300 bucks. Go look for iKBC, CM, Filco, Rosewill, vortex, KBC, KBT, topre..
Most of the guy here start with second hand real mechanical keyboard.

My daily driver keyboard was a 3rd hand keyboard. Bought it because I couldn't afford the new 1. probably around 5 years old now. Quality board can't break easily.

Does anyone knows how to fix double click issue? The y button of my previous mech keyboard was found double click after a usage of 2yrs . Or it is literally un-fixable ?

probably look for lower tier keyboard ba, with china switches..
Can't recommend any quality cherry mx, coz pricing over RM 300+ for backlit.

thanks.how bout something under 400 ? i guess backlit is secondary. quality first
for numpad, i can get another a dedicated usb numpad (not used often)

i dowan to recommend one coz i dont trust China board.  whistling.gif nvr heard complaints but its a personal preference.
except magicforce 68. Its the cheapest and easiest board to get for that layout.
got good reviews online oso. but i dont own one. miskin

Im more to buy used boards that have quality. n im no backlit person(reason y im not intrigued for RGB cheap china boards)
i bought a 2yr old Filco and it is still nice to type on it.
so ill recommend Filco -> Leopold -> iKBC.
or as recommended above by quovadis.

Happy click clacking !
*
Tq. Ill try to look for filco

i thought all companies are doing that, no? they all have at least one-year warranty.

which board are you using that caused this?
