Image is just an example on how the spacebar look like.

Hi guys, I bought a HyperX Alloy Origin Aqua switch few days ago and got this spacebar rattling issue which I suspect due of the right side stablizer. The left one sound solid when pressed but the right sound like loose spring. I tried to take out the spacebar keycap and put it in again but still the same. It feels like those cheap spacebar from RM20 keyboard. How to fix it? I just send an email to HyperX but I doubt it will help. When press the spacebar it sound very loud like spring while the rest of the keys it solidly quiet. Very disappointed for a RM400+ keyboard.

Caution: Too much lube will make the keypress mushy.

Hi thanks for the video. HyperX asked me to return the KB so I just return it.

400 bucks better top up and buy ducky, filco or leopold.
Or even spend less and get ikbc

RM400 is the max for me. I am still not hardcore enough to buy higher price KB.

I understand. There should always be a limit.
What I'm saying is, at rm400 better get a Leopold TKL (rm489) or Ducky SF (rm449) and you will have 180% better product minus the RGB on the Leopold. Maybe next time.
Honestly not much diff between rm209 Tecware Phantom elite and HyperX especially if you lube.

I also considered the Tecware Phantom but when the RGB is off the legends is harder to see. The tecware has better keycaps IMO. Too bad I only saw this post after I bought the KB. Maybe next time.
