hi guys

coming from cherry mx black, would there be a huge difference in typing and gaming feels if i were to switch to cherry mx red or mx speed?

im planning to switch from cm quickfire rapid mx black to either ducky shine 6 red or speed, or do you guys have any other mkb recommendation that has RGB at a lower price point but close enough build quality?

ended up with ducky one tkl red. it does feel lighter, and it's sort of giving me the 'cheap' feeling when typing on it. i've had several misfires already but ill prolly get used to it heh

heh just realized it's you

guys, are there any local sellers that sell those transparent keycaps for maximum RGB effect?

Prolly cause id associate weight with build quality and them being lighter to the press compared to my black keycaps

But yea ill get used to it over time. I somewhat felt that this keyboard is also less noisy when typing than when I was using my QFR mx black

why are black switches hard to find in most mainstream keyboards these days?

yup, i have been using it for the past 6 years actually and liked it. but i had no choice but to go for red switches when i changed my keyboard cause there's no one selling mx blacks

no prob bro, enjoy

it's softer to the touch, in the beginning it somewhat gave me the cheap feeling cause i was used to the tougher mx black and another reason why i can think of the 'cheap' feeling was because the keycaps on this ducky one makes the more 'click' sound than my old CM QFR which makes more of a 'clack' sound.

i've also had some misfires while typing but im starting to get used to it heh, and my current keyboard doesnt sound as loud as my previous one while typing. in terms of fatigue, i've never felt tired typing on the black switch so switching to red didnt seem like an improvement for me on this department.

gaming wise i did not feel any noticeable difference in terms of response, they feel pretty much the same to me

a little, only while quick typing though

anyone here tried this kind of keycaps before?



feel like getting it but worried it might actually be annoying while gaming

heh i actually like blank keycaps cause they look clean to me

only difficulty for me is sometimes typing numbers in cause once i look at the keyboard, i kinda get amnesia on where the numbers are on the 2nd row

guys, anyone know which site i can go to that isnt US based that I can do some custom keycaps like putting my username on the spacebar?

guys,

safe to say they're basically the same thing?

on Lazada

on Aliexpress

sweet, guess i'll order from lazada then since it's cheaper

nope not yet, i ordered via fb group instead, still waiting for the guy to msg me

you'll get used to it

i've had several misfires when i switched from black to red and now they don't feel too light anymore

it isn't that hard removing keycaps from the costar stabs tbh, what i did was place the stabs into the keycaps and then 'hook' them onto the metal. but now im with this cherry stabs and i like it more cause of how plug n play it is

kek i bet you lubed it as well

it's nice to customize your keycap colors without needing to constantly replace them actually when you have RGB

RGB 4 LYF

yea it depends on the controller's capability. but if they can do different pattern, they surely can do a static color

ofc IMO it will never be as good as having the actual keycap itself in the particular color

best way to learn touch type is to get blank keycaps

yup, blank keycaps kinda forces you to do that
