The MCR keycaps profile designed from the original profile of Cherry. We enlarged the overall size a little, so the actual finger contact surface is bigger, also we make them more round and higher.

Of course ,MCR is still similar to the original Cherry Profile, ABS material and Doubleshot legends, medium thickness, it's basically no much difference from GMK for typing. But with more delicate surface treatment and a brand new unique fonts, so the recognition will be better than others.

hi all, is there any physical store in klang valley that allows testing keyboards now?

i wanna test switches before committing to a purchase. tbh i already bought a switch tester, but still can't decide whether i prefer linear or tactile.

i think i will be able to decide if i can test type on a whole keyboard instead of only a few keys lol. but i don't want to spend on full sets of switches just for testing, you see. prefer to save money where i can coz i'm kinda broke at the moment, but also wanna treat myself to a nice keeb for my birthday haha.

Isn't that rebult qk65 overpriced? Rm1199 for full case kit and pcb.

agree it come back to user pref 

well for me the expensive one  i try not to buy hahaha 

I feel it's overpriced because it was 800+ on the gb. That's after market for you.

FL CMMK Stab

anyone have use the above stab???

YES the poison is real   

Ok I will be the tester .. will get it and report back hahaha
I want to know how good their claim is 😜

And crap i have been poisoned and got the white Q1 barebone already 😅

dang just realized ... q1 is screw in stab .. is there anyway to use the plate mount one???

any sifu can advise??

haha yea, that's why i'm wondering if anyone here knows a dedicated store that's not in a mall so it won't be so crowded... or a specific store in a mall so i can go directly and leave as soon as i'm done instead of wandering from shop to shop.

i actually already kena covid recently (and i was so careful too ), but of course reinfection is a possibility so i'll try to be cautious still. thanks anyway!

They guy I bought forget to give the stabs
he will pass it to me later
Anyway I will get the screw one later .. which one recommended??

you mean the FB group ??? i applied but didnt get approved though 
gave up already and here is better

hahaha

i gave up already 

anyone tried owlab stab???

but usually stab is install and forget right hahaha

Owl stabs is all hype no substance. Selling point is being touted as the solution to bent wires, said to be the cause of ticking, by using what they call "liquid metal" wire that reverts back into shape like a memory foam therefore never "bending". Except for when it comes out of the factory "bent" or "not straight", but because it always "reverts back into shape" it will always be "bent" and not fixable.

Cherry clip-in = OG Cherry, always good if you know what you are doing, need to clip legs, cheapest of them all i believe

C3 = Comes in a wide variety of colours to match your build, cheap, widely available, v3 comes with a lot of additional goodies to mod your stabs

Durock/Everglide/JWK = Better than C3 from my experience but more expensive, widely available, could benefit from additional modding (holee mod) but downside is mushiness if not done perfectly, ticking do come back in some cases (without holee mod) after some time

TX clip-in = Stem is made of double shot with TPU mixture (soft material) on the inside to minimise rattle, think of it like a holee mod but built in without the mushy feeling of holee mod, clip-in is easier to install, not as readily available as quite new and still hype so it sells out but I've seen it remain in stock for weeks after restock

Staebies = Tightest tolerance of all, probably the best stab to use without lube, it will be tick free even with just a little lube, due to it's extremely tight tolerance there are reports of cracked keycap stems (very rare) and incompatibility with warped keycaps, bent PCBs and long pole stem switches. Biggest downside is it's almost always never available since it's technically still in beta and is the most expensive.

My go-to right now is TX because it is the best imo among stabs i can actually get my hands on.

thanks
i think i saw a seller sell cherry screw in somewhere

Nice summary. Just want to add a comment for my fave stabs, the Equalz C3. Their initial approach was similar to Staebies - Very tight tolerances to fix all noises and wire popping issues. To the point that there were issues with PBT spacebars and their V1s. I am daily driving their V2s and a few months ago I noticed 1 of the stems on my 2.75U KAT spacebar has cracked....

The current V3s hopefully solved this problem, I already have some for my next build.

Logitech’s new MX keyboard brings mechanical switches to the masses
https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/log...d-mx-master-3s/

My brother bought (and in the end passed to me) one of those budget cheapo dunno what brand models. Nice enough to use at the start (got knobs and everything and sub RM100 price) but by the time I got it already got bouncing keys etc. QC probably non existant. My current RK68 is SO much sturdier and reliable.

How does Oil King compare to Aqua King in terms of stem wobble? Planing to use Oil King on Mammoth 75.

Thanks 

Gazzew fanboy strikes again!

From Goat's review for the Aqua King v3:
Immediately upon testing these switches I was drawn to comparing them to Gazzew’s Boba U4 switches in terms of wobble. Much like those near perfect switches with respect to wobble, these have absolutely no top housing wobble and only the most minor of stem wobbles in either direction.

Haha.. really wanted to try Oil King. Guess I'll just pull the trigger next month. Gonna use it stock. Lazy and no time to mod.
