nice....

ordering.

Tested the wireless mode, definitely not suitable for gaming. Lags and constant disconnection. Ok for typing and general usage. But i am using a cheapo bluetooth 4.0 dongle, so that could be the issue.

will try wireless.

got some guy in fb said no lag at all....

yeah could be my cheapo dongle. let me know if the wireless works for you.

man, this year has been a lot of GB for custom 65%. any thoughts on this year's release?

your thoughts on 65% keyboards?

form factors and layouts are just preferences in mkb.

this iteration of 65% covers a lot of things, including different keyboard constructions; inclusion of plate/case foams; more case/plate options, to name some. it's a good thing, making these kits more complete of possible options.

hi guys, i am planning to get a keyboard that can connect to two PC, because i have my working laptop and personal laptop now, switching need to plug and unplug. using ducky zero red switch for like 5yrs already. i saw wireless might be the way to go for this. I see logitech g613 having promo at lazada on 11.11 maybe only rm289 or less, is this a good keyboard to have? i just worry i get used to red switch and i see g613 is tactile type.

yeah man. the difference designs really brought out the uniqueness of the 65% board. but man, mati katak wallet, want to buy one also sweating balls. d. The Mark : 65 is pretty well priced though.

Still got? I think the extras just ran out

out. only one left is that melody65 on kdbfans.

the boop set on kdbfans though. not very creative on the design.

Leopold FC900R. Both the community and the seller told me to pull/swap keys to narrow down the issue. Ordered some keycap pullers both locally and from China arriving maybe end of this month. Didn't dare to use the one they gave which I think it's called the keyring keycap puller or something because I heard it might scratch the keys.

just get the ones that you prefer the most, or wait until you found one.

mean while, polish the fundamentals and gain more first-hand experience on different combinations of parts. one problem with kits these days are their variations that are getting richer day by day. getting the right options can be tough if you do not have sufficient experience on parts. (a mid-tier kit can be costly if you took in their complete options)

oh. it might just be due to misaligned installation. my leopold (fc660m, fc750r) don't have such an issue. yes, use thinner caps might also help.

i just use the typical wire keycap puller that comes together with key cap sets. do it slowly and patiently, and you will not scratch anything.

I was attracted by Mark 65 for its design, hot swap with gasket mount and price. Too bad that my wallet not allow me to do so.

You mean the issue could be raised by the thick keycap that comes with this keyboard?

Al alright, maybe if I run out of patience I'll give it a try today doing it slowly.

it shouldn't be the cause tbh. you should take a closer look to see what's going on exactly.

Hello guys, how do you all clean your keyboards? Without dismantling the whole thing? I usually wipe it with a semi-wet (mostly dry) cloth every single day. But in between the keys, there will be dust. How to clean them thoroughly?

usually i do this for actively used units after few months (subjective; depending on how dirty the plate/pcb surfaces are):
1. take out key caps and wash them with ultrasonic cleaner + warm water + dental cleanser tablet;
2. use brush to sweep weird stuff out of plate/pcb surfaces (do this out-door); use wet cloth to clean it up again;
3. use brush to sweep the internal of case;
4. reinstall everything.

the more frequent one are step 1 and 2 (subjective also; depending on how dirty they look)

for key caps, i wash and dry them before putting them back into their box/bag/tray.

Don't want to dismantle.

any unit to reccomend?
