both sounded like key chattering. you can try blow compressed air into the affected switches (stuff like lens blower works also), and see if it helps: take off the cap, press the slider down, and then blow air into the switch. you should spam the switch for a while also.
usually air blowing trick should do the job well. if air blowing is not working, you can still desolder and tear the affected switch down, then clean it up, then put it back. or, you can just replace it with a good one.
if it's still not fixed, it might be something else at fault.
Thank for the feedback bro. Any idea where can I purchase an original new Cherry MX brown switch? Stumbled upon a few shops in lazada but not sure if they're genuine.

While what horns mentioned is really good advice, just a note about this method, silraveDO NOT blow using your breath, technically our breath contains quite a bit of water/vapour in it and might cause oxidisation to happen on the contact points in the switch. A lens blower would be the safest if you want to blow some air to clear off dust.

i think you should ask this at mymkb fb group. i think there should be someone who have spares.
usually i get switches from taobao (kbdfans, ymdk, and other reputed shops). locally, it's keys.my, and from users at lyn, mymkb, and mechmarket.

Yep selling off another one. Figured I am just wasting money and best to use the fund for something more useful like stocks lol
his presentation/marketing and quality of his work is quite impressive i must say.
how much?

good point and here i am still wasting money on hobbies.
i spent on 3 mkbs before i called it quits. My main driver MKB is still solid up to today doubleshot and dye sublimated keycaps still clear as the day i bought them. No new replacement required.
My only experience with led lighting was back when i use a Logitech G15, but even then the lighting was subpar compared to whats available these days. If i bought a new MKB, i'd probly try a doubleshot mkb with led lighting. There quite a lot of choices for this now

well most of my keebs are just used and bought fairly cheap. just to have fun trying diff keebs. and just like u, my 1st mkb i bought is still going strong at my mom's home pc which is use by whole family.
but after all the purchase, i can agree that spending on one(or more) damn good kibod is better than buying a lot off the shelves boards even for cheap. it all depends on how into kibod a person is. for me, i just like to collect antiques. afterall, its a hobby and hobby demands money.
Hi guys, I'm kinda out of ideas here, been looking for MX Clear keyboards and while there are some Leopold sellers in Msia (like Gamer's Hideout or PCByte on lazada). The clears are all out of stock, would you guys know any specialized places where I can get clears or something similar to clears? (good build quality + strong tactile bump + no click)

I guess it depends on the form factor you're looking for. No ideas of any TKL that comes standard with Cherry MX Clear that's readily available in Malaysia right now, but I did see some Ducky Miya Pro (65% form factor) with Cherry MX Clear in readily available stock.
