Yeah it comes with hot swap pcb.

I'll try to get used to it first. If cannot then i guess I'll get a single switch. I see shopee seller some even sell just the springs.

Thanks for the recommendation!

here is the list of builders who might be able to help you out, https://www.facebook.com/groups/MYMECHMARKE...79389625627322/

gat yellow is comfortable for most people. just use it for a week first. i think you will get used to it.

yes, you can just get some lighter ones, and replace them right away (the immediate convenience of switch hot-swapping)

+1

It could be a lot of firsts for me. First 65%. First wireless. First linear. First hotswap.

Seriously tempted.

first to do giveaway here.

thanks.

Yeah, i was also thinking to just try it out first. Or at least wait until want to buy other things then can add that single switch just to try. At the moment to just order a single switch i feel bad for the seller. Haha

I can giveaway some Krytox 105. Made it myself. Production increases when I see or smell yummy food. Want or not?

New Akko Midnight finally arrived from Chaiina.



Not sure which board to put this on yet. Was originally thinking of putting this on the Keychron but there's so many extra keycaps just sitting there doing nothing The packaging and the box it came in are so good. Surprised they went through all this for a relatively cheap keycap set but then again this isn't a 2 year GB Only took two weeks to arrive. You can pay around the same price for a "cloned" GMK set and they still ship it in some cheap plastic tray versus this 3 layered package with a nice hard pvc case with indents inside to lock the keycaps in so they don't flop around (other than the spacebars in that pic ) or get damaged. Would definitely buy again

nice haha

yes, plan your purchase. i feel bad for you too if you just get one switch, because that makes the total cost of that switch being the same as (switch cost + shipping cost).

Haven't seen this mentioned here but our local mech outfit has a GB going on for two frankenswitches, Harimau (tactile) and Penyu (linear) until the end of the month. Linkage: https://www.rebultkeyboards.com/products/-g...nd-penyu-switch

Looks nice! How much did you pay for this set?

RM168 damage not including shipping. Also has blue keycaps as well, not included in that pic lol. Akko is actually on Shopee so you can get their official stuff cheaper than 3rd party local resellers:

Buying Akko switches from them directly is way cheaper. But the trade off is the 2 week waiting time. I'm thinking of getting some switches along with the cables next time. I really wanna try the Ocean Blue and Rose Reds.

Yeah, I ordered from that Akko shopee store as well. Just wondered if sifu got lobang to find cheaper. Haha.

But the price is very good already actually when compared to Akko US official price, which can be almost double.

I'm really intrigued by SA profile. Very retro looking. The WoB like yours especially looks exactly like my old typewriter. Does it wobble like people usually say?

Yeah AKKO keycaps on Amazon $59.99. They always like to ketuk whitey haha. ASA profile is slightly different from SA iirc. Best user comparison I've seen is that it's SA profile with OEM height. https://en.akkogear.com/faq/akko-keycaps-profile-comparison/ I haven't actually put them on yet since I got them yesterday. Thinking of doing the foam mod on my Keychron so might as well one shot everything. Might do it on Sunday assuming I don't just put it on my Filco tomorrow at work.

Eh, I thought ASA is like SA. I was wrong. Just googled and realized they are very different indeed. And ASA looks damn good on 60% and 65% keyboards. Ish cannot change my order already. Haiz..

Just realised some of their ASA sets are very generous with extra keys.

The ASA Macaw comes with practically a full set of teal accent mods.


And their ASA Wave comes with a full set of green accent alphas.


If you buy both, you'd have enough keys to fill 3 full size boards!

Is there any software method to solve keyboard ghosting?

So far it's impacting my gaming experience. Any advice?

Sounds like a membrane problem. What kind of shitty mech did you get that has ghosting?

There's a fuckton of keycaps including with their sets and they're relatively cheap compared to pre-order and wait 2 years 3 letter brands My Akko Midnight set has 178 keycaps.

Hallo everyone, sharing my first board ever built. Finally deciding to get into the hobby after kena racun so many times by taehatypes, taekeyboards and Hipyotech on Youtube.

I have a thing for knobs and I know its a bit of a budget board, but I fell in love with the TM680 since I saw it on Reddit.

Anyways, here is my somewhat of a budget build:

TM680 Wired
Outemu Silent Greys + Lubed + Filmed
Stock Stabs (Came badly lubed, so had to re-lube)
Artisan Pokemon keycaps from Senikeycaps on IG




Overall, for my first board, I'm really happy. But I get what people are saying, once you start venturing down the rabbit hole, it's hard to turn back. Anyone have any recommendations for a budget 65 - 75% with a knob. GMMK Pro is on my list but it's a bit out of budget. Hahah. Hopefully, Cooler Master actually brings in the MK721. 65% with knob + bluetooth + 2.5Ghz. Very excited. Anyways, signing off for now. I shall continue to racun myself here on everyone else's build.

Thanks and stay safe!

Your TM680 looks good man. I just saw a soundtest that was super thocky.

Opening the bottom looks like a disaster waiting to happen.

Or wait for Keychron to sell the Q1 with knob. Should give you plenty of time to self consume racun in the meantime.
