any1 here with tecware phantom elite?
i am using gatheron switches..some of them dont sit tight in the hole...this makes the keys dont align horizontally as one or two keys will be more tilted than others

is this the switch problem or the metal board problem?

Not plate cutting (u remove switch will see cutting still same), switch (you check got bent pins or not).

It's the socket on the PCB. Reported in since they launched, they have QC issue like this.. <--

So, the simple fix is, disassemble the board, and reseat the socket properly.

The socket looks like this

he means the sockets not being seated properly on the pcb (the black pieces that have 2-pin holes in the picture) this is manufacturing defect. if this happened, the shop should be able to arrange replacement of the board for you.

however it's better to check if this is caused by switches first. switch installation is simple, but bent pins will be common if you're not patient enough.

I see.. But if they are already soldered, still ok to reseat them?
