>>51431745
did I do good?
>>51431755
How much?
I am also not a fan of the white, but I know some love it.
Thinking about selling my pok3r and going for a TKL.
My hands feel cramped when I'm typing for long periods of time.
>>51431779
180$ CAD (So fucking hard to find in Canada with tactile switches of any kind) I also am buying Logitech G600 mouse, a white desk, and a white computer case, so it should be beautiful.
>>51431802
That would probably look pretty cool.
I'd be worried about keeping it clean to be honest.
Speaking of odd colors, I am tempted to order a chromalusion plate set for my ergodox.
>>51431745
Just put in my order. Steel plate, and probably going to do the split space thing.
>>51431745
there's no Delete, End, or PgDn key???
i'd be lying if i said i didnt want one.
>>51432043
I am still not decided on what to do.
Thinking either steel plate and clear top (pic related but a different board), or just black top.
Split space is tempting too, but I am worried about finding caps to fit.
>>51432087
Fully programmable. Make it whatever you want.

I suddenly want an HHKB now but is there any reason to own one if all I do is play video games?
Pic related my current keyboard.
>>51432124
>I suddenly want an HHKB now but is there any reason to own one if all I do is play video games?
I don't get the HHKB love.
I like the Japanese layout one better. Arrow keys FTW.
>>51432116
my god that is b-e-a-u-t-f-u-l
and fully programmable???? damn this is gonna hurt...
>>51432116
i must have those caps!
Just ordered an Azio MGK1 with white backlight and Kailh browns.
Looking forward to it.
What are some mechanical keyboards with a Trackpoint built in?
I know there's the Tex Yoda in pic. It satisfies a lot of my requirements (middle mouse button is a MUST), but I'd prefer for it to at the very least have arrow keys and dedicated Insert/Delete/Home/End/PgUp/PgDn cluster -- if not, at least be programmable.
>>51432201
Kailh browns
>>51432247
I think I've seen a thread on leddit where someone made a trackpoint for their Poker 2, don't quote me on that entirely though, gl to you if you decide to go on that endeavor.
>>51432193
Here:
>http://pimpmykeyboard.com/sa-jukebox-keycap-set/
>>51432146
That is actually a slightly different board. That is a B2.Mini.
The Compact SQ SHOULD look similar except for the layout.
If you are interested in a similarly designed B.mini, here is the B.mimi EX X2. It is even more compact than the Compact SQ, but would probably cost twice as much.
>http://winkeyless.kr/product/b-mini-ex-x2-pcb/
>>51432247
The tex trackpoint module is available seperately right?
You could probably implement it into a custom board. Probably a royal pain in the ass though.
>>51432294
Meh, I prefer the bump of browns, and clicks of a red are too noisy
>>51432321
blue is the one that clicks, red has no tactile feedback/ Kailh is your problem, not the color of switch you chose.
>>51432321
He isn't complaining about the browns (well he actually may, they are hated by many) he is complaining about the Kailh part.
They are terrible clones that constantly fail and have stems break off.
>>51432321
>>51432355
I always hated how the old switch guide in the /mkg/ threads circle jerked browns as the ultimate in tactile feedback.
They are just a mushy mess.
>>51432355
Oh please, they're literally the exact same spec key.
There is absolutely no evidence to support the argument that Kailhs are of inferior quality, other than meme bullshit.
And for what it's worth, we literally build keyboards where I work with Cherry blacks and we see bad switches and occasional failures on them as well.
If you have any objective evidence to support your statement, I'd love to see it.
>>51431745
>inb4 Razer
I know.
>>51432350
You're right, spaced on that. It's late.
>>51432457
>Oh please, they're literally the exact same spec key.
Not really.
They don't have the crosspoint contact that Cherry switches do.
But for the most part they are a straight copy.
>>51432420
I like them: I actually don't even really mind good dome keyboards, but a mechanical is nicer to use, so the browns are a fit for me.
I don't mind blues, reminds me of the 386 I had growing up, but they're super loud unless you have the right room.
The one wall of my office is exposed brick, and the floor is tile, so there's no way I'm going to listen to that.
>>51432499
Actually that is the only really tangible difference, that and the Kailhs are slightly heavier.
Actuation force and everything else is pretty much the same.
>>51432547
>Khails are slightly heavier
Can confirm, Khail Blues on my Keycool 84 with PBT caps are harder to press than on my Filco Majestouch TKL with Cherry MX Blues.
>>51431755
this is sexy af do want
>>51432116
I love the SA layout.
I just don't like any of they keysets for it.
I want something sorta classic.
>>51432247
check out an RT3200, not a mech but you can get one for 20~, they were made by IBM, and it has middle mouse, I rarely ever use the trackpoint but it is aesthetically pleasing as all hell to me, or one of the model ms that have one inbuilt but you'll be spending near 250$ there as well
>>51432043
What color was your top plate?
I am seconds away from submitting my order.
Thinking silve switch plate, clear top.
Any nordling here?
Do you buy Nordic keyboards or more common layouts and switch keycaps? (If that works)
I haven't been able to find smaller mkbs (even tenkeyless) with a Nordic layout.
>>51432701
That is a beautiful keyboard, anon.
Do you know what kind of adapter I would need to use it with my laptop? My laptop doesn't have any PS/2 ports -- only USB.
I know there are PS/2 to USB converters and adapters and some have fancy stuff going on inside of them... I'm not sure what I would need for that kind of keyboard...
>>51432957
Depends on the board.
Some work with passive, some need active adapters.
>>51432458
That's nice, Anon. I wouldn't think to use brown but it looks good.
>>51432692
You should look into Deskthority's Round 5a.
Full Sculpted SA with dozens of color options.
Deadline is the end of this month.

very nice!
Pic is of doubleshot ABS set
isn't PBT superior? what should i pick in terms of quality feel
>>51433572
>isn't PBT superior?
Yes.
But PMK makes some pretty solid ABS sets. You wont notice any wear for quite awhile.
>>51432458
Not a fan of your keycaps, but I wouldn't have believed that a razer board could look so nice if it wasn't for them.
It's nice.
>>51433572
>he fel for the pbt meme
This is a keyboard thread.
Post and identify keyboards.
>Ducky Shine 4 with doubleshot translucent PBT caps
>>51432838
They have pok3r on amazon UK with Nordic layout
>>51433792
Sure, the legends on PMK keys won't wear out since they are either dyesub or double shot.
However, only the retro style SA profile can really be described as "solid". The newer DCS and DSA profiles are much thinner to save money on material.
The thickness of the keycap plastic is the single largest factor when it comes to quality. I'd take thick ABS over thin PBT any day.
I would like to create a 7 key mechanical keyboard. This should give enough permutations to represent an entire keyboard. I'm not so worried about the hardware part as I am software. What would be the best way to create multiple mod keys and/or aliases to achieve such a thing? OS would be Arch Linux.
>>51432838
Look for a Poker or some CM Storm board, they make decent compact stuff with a Nordic layout.
Beware that you *will* have trouble finding replacement keycaps if you buy any kind of ISO board (nordic, uk, german etc.) and for Nordic specifically it's even worse.
>>51431745
is varmilo key tester programmable?
Are there any really cheap and functional mechanical keyboards? Let us say that mu budget was somewhere between 50 and 60 dollars. What would be the best that I could get?
>>51434913
lolita spyder maybe
Sorry for the noob question but are Corsair any good?
>>51435736
i'd say a decent entry level keyboard for a premium price.
Why isn't there wireless mechanical keyboards?
>>51435776
But there are?
>>51432701
Does that have rubberdome keys or similar keys that old thinkpads have?
>>51432116
>Split space is tempting too, but I am worried about finding caps to fit.
I'm getting some R5a. I already placed an order for a bunch of customised shit for my NovaTouch, so I can use a number of leftover caps to full in some big spots on the SQ. I'm saving money, I swear.
>>51432821
Probably too late now, but I did black acrylic for the top and bottom. I'm not huge on the frosted acrylic look nor am I into LEDs, but a band around the side that lets me occasionally announce that I suck cock will be nice.
>>51433354
>Deadline is the end of this month.
Oh anon, you're such a kidder.
>>51435998
I waited to order. Probably gonna do it soon.
Think I am going with block top, and acryllic for the rest.
I figure I will just leave the lights off when I don't want to look like a weirdo.
>>51431783
that's because mechanical keyboards are shit
Finally got my new caps yesterday. Switching from abs to pbt makes as big a difference as switching from rubber dome to mechanical. The feel, and the sound of pbt is just so much more right.
>>51436344

My Filco Majestouch II, with MX Blues, in French AZERTY.
Some of the original keycaps are starting to wear off. I really need to get a load of new ones.
>>51436464

good luck getting new caps of good quality yuro¢uck
>>51436481
The struggle is real.
But such is life in the zone.
>>51436464
tfw french and using qwerty/ansi shit
next keyboard i'm going iso, and back to azerty :^)
>>51436536
My next keyboard will be custom built, but as >>51436481 pointed out, finding good quality caps is just a fucking pain.
I wish there was a DSA Dolch ISO Azerty set.
>>51436569
i know it's a meme board, and a meme set but i think im going to get a pok3r w/ international granite's (azerty tho)
>>51436664
>>51436569
kind of like pic related
>>51436664
>>51436674
Where would you find the granite set in Azerty ?
>>51436444
artisan pads are snake oil
How do I reflash my keyboard's firmware? I keep getting an error when I try to do it.
>>51436703
Looks pretty tho.
>>51436685
there is an international set
The HHKB is great.
Except for the fucking rubber feet. They fucking suck. Holy fucking shit they fucking suck.
So how good are those keyboards directly from Cherry?
Like, this guy http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MN3MFV4/ref=s9_dcbhz_bw_g328_i2_sh
>>51436750
Oh boy! Maybe that's what I should get too. Any plans on getting it or are you waiting for another drop on Massdrop?
>>51436790
waiting for another drop, i heard one might be coming in january. pretty exciting, really nice looking caps
I'm gonna buy a deck hassium for my entry mechanical keyboard is it good?
>>51436744
you got an ugly one big ass font e-sport shit lol
>>51436803
It's just too bad that it's not precisely what I want, but then again, if I want French Azerty I don't have a whole lot of choice to begin with.
>>51436834
yeah, it's a shame there's not many options. i've looked around, but couldn't find any i liked.
hope you can find a set you're satisfied with.

alright WHILE this ISN'T technically ABOUT a MECHANICAL keyboard, IT still INVOLVES a KEYBOARD
I fucked UP and BROKE my THINKPAD t430's SPACEBAR (managed TO remap IT to CAPSLOCK with MIXED results)

so i just bought pic related from amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FMWLR8
not sure if ill keep them. they definitely reduce the noise, but idk i kinda like the noise
they also make the keys feel much more mushy than i was expecting. a lot less satisfying to type on
Are there 3D print files for the TKL WASD v2 & CODE keyboard's case/shell? I recently got the board on its own and I'd like to actually use it.
>>51441023
For fucks sake,
The Num Lock LED on my Ducky Shine 3 is dead. Only had it for 8 months. Fuck.
/mkg/, should I buy a refurbed Corsair K95 RGB at $120? I know that the glow is a bit of a gimmick, but the build of the keyboard at $120 Cherry MX is not bad.
Suggestion? I don't think a Ducky of comparable quality can be had at such a price and all.
>>51442236

I have a wrist condition that makes it such that I need an "ergonomic" keyboard such as pic related.
I've googled left and right for mechanical alternatives but found nothing... Can you guys help me out?
>>51437145
Same here anon it's a very good daily driver
minimal, no flashing lights. Simple
>>51442589
There are a ton of ergonomic mechs, unless by "alternatives" you mean "100% exact same layout".
>>51442589
Atreus/ergodox? or literally google "ergonomic mechanical keyboard" lol
>>51442633

Closer to 200 fully assembled.
Plus it ends today.
>>51442753
Yes it does. The plate is almost identic to the Filco one.
I know it for a fact because i swapped the case.
By the way, if you are in Europe you can buy it from keyboardco dot com (not listed on the site, you have to ask for it to the customer support)
>>51443726
Good to know, but I'm in the US, unfortunately. I'm looking at these acrylic cases on Deskthority, but it seems the designer only made them for the one group buy.
ducky 60% boards any gud?
>>51443884
yes if you can tolerate the case it comes in, or can buy a different case to put it in (which involves cutting the pcb i believe)
or you could mod the stock case too
>pic related

that new case looks fucking worse it looks cheap as shit

How cringe is a Razer Blackwidow to /g/?
I sort of want the carpet to match the drapes with my DeathAdder and i haven't heard any real argument against razer products beyond that they are overpriced.
>>51447979
If you want your garbage to match your garbage, then go for it.
>>51447979
Try to get a Blackwidow from 2013 or older if you can. They have legitimate cherry switches, compared to the 2014 or newer models, which switched to a new Razer Khail switch, which seems to be unreliable compared to the cherry switches. You'll also only be stuck with either mx browns, or mx blues if you want a bw.

Not a real store so they actually take forever to ship. Been 3 or 4 days, but at least shipping is free.
>board in OP
Still need to order switches (green) and keycaps (no clue yet).
Between Cherry MX blue and Cherry MX clear, what do you all prefer?
>>51448377
they're two completely different switches.
What is it like when you buy a mechanical keyboard for the first time?
>>51448377
For me, clears. And I haven't even tried them. I like browns over blues and clears are more or less browns with a heavier spring. I prefer browns due to less click noise and the release and actuation points are very close making it better for gaming.
>>51448141
>non RGB leds
I personally wouldn't, but that's up to you. If I cared about LEDs, was going to swap Keycaps or case, just go v60
Anyone know of a keyboard layout similar to this one? The price point is good, comes with Cherry MX Blue Switches and you get the 104 with a bit more compactness (though not quite a TKL) but then again it is Adesso...
http://www.amazon.com/Adesso-Compact-Mechanical-Keyboard-MKB-125B/dp/B0038KLIPA
Convince me this isn't worth checking out and please suggest ruthlessly; I'm looking to invest in a mechanical w/ blue switches for work (requires tenkey) and one w/ blue switches for gaming/writing at home (preferably TKL with Insert/Home/Delete/End/PgUp/PgDn + arrows.
>>51448974
I don't know of any like that, though I am relatively new to this so somebody else might. Strangely I don't see Cherry MX blue anywhere in the title or desc, even though there's a picture of the switch.
Apparently the key sizes are non-standard for this one, specifically space and backspace. Some users report lack of key rollover, although it could be an OS problem. You may not want to buy that if you plan to change Keycaps or cable.
My first inclination would be a Das, Code or Wasd fullsize board. Unless you are really tight on deskspace the superior layout will be worth it.
I'd also probably go clears or brown switches for work, you may not believe me but blues are really loud if you bottom out frequently. If you're absolutely positive you want blues you may want to buy o-rings to dampen the clack, but not the click.
For the at-home keyboard you could look at a Novatouch TKL or Quickfire Stealth. They're relatively inexpensive and are generally good. Page keys and arrows.
How much does cherry mx switch cost? $4 for one? Or did I search in a wrong place?
I want to build a mechanical keyboard, but I don't want to spend $500.
I live in europe btw.
>>51448974
Cheap as fuck. Probably worth it on that alone. Looks like it has rollover issues and annoying non-standard keys.
If you want somethingsinilar, but actually good, look at the keyboard in the OP.
Way more expensive ($140 unassembled, $220 for full assembly) but a similar layout with none of the previous issues.
>>51449726
~$0.30-0.50 depending on color.
Should be around $40-50 to covet any layout.
Is it worth it to upgrade to Shine 5? I only have DK2108s Zero
>>51449788
if you care about RGB, then yes. otherwise it shouldnt be anything very new to you.
>>51449768
Could you give me a link to the auction or a page where I can buy some, please?
>>51448974
I use that keyboard, It's OK for $50, but the switches are uneven on mine, some keys are very loud, but others don't click at all. Other than that it's great, although I wish it was backlit.

What keyboard is this?
Okay, I'm struggling here. I need a new keyboard. Keyboards last a long time, so I'm willing to spend a decent amount of money on it. I want a mechanical keyboard, mx-brown switches, full-size.
That's it. The best thing I could find price/performance wise is the Ducky One for 129 Eurobucks, which is a lot. I mean, I don't want lighting because I'm afraid of dead leds after a few months. I don't want silly gamer bling. Just... a simple, black, full-sized keyboard with mx-browns. It seems to be really difficult for European resellers to have something like that.

how often should i be cleaning my keyboard? and should i buy some keyboard cleaning supplies or something?
What's the cheapest TKL mech with whatever cherry mx clones and still acceptable build quality?
I see a lot of stuff on aliexpress being sold as mechanical keyboards, but I have my doubts about what they define as a mechanical keyboard and what not.

I'm selling off my Ducky shine 3 TKL because TKL is a meme and I'm sick of browns. What's a good quality fullsize board with greens/greys/whites, maybe blue switches /mkg/?
Nothing in the guide is really doing it for me. Cheers.

I like the design of this keyboard, it looks so easy to clean. You just hit it with compressed air from the sides and any dust or pet dander that is sitting under the keys will shoot out.
I'm actually really interested in getting a keyboard that is easy to clean.
>>51451376
As someone who owned a full size mech keyboard i would strongly recommend against it.
Unless you know you need the numpad on a hourly basis or something a tenkeyless version not only will it be cheaper but more minimalist and pleasing.
>>51452201
I play roguelikes, I need a numpad. Plus, it's great for data entry, as rare as it is.
>>51451470
Already seen that one, 190 Euros.
>>51452081
Great post, thanks.
>>51451955
That's a surprisingly good option, but I utterly loathe that gamer font. Holy shit how did that ever get into production.
Too bad that the Ducky Zero is sold out everywhere...
>>51447780
Please tell me where you got the key caps.
>>51452157
>I'm selling off my Ducky shine 3 TKL
What layout is it and how much are you selling it for?
Other than that, get a Ducky Shine 4 with greens.
>>51452342
>but I utterly loathe that gamer font
the font is terrible, but you could just get some nicer keycaps to replace the stock ones
Leptons arrived today, can't use them until my planck arrives.
>>51452654
It's just the TKL Shine 3 with white LEDS. Looking to get about $120AUD for it.
>Ducky Shine 4 with greens
eh anything like this but with white/No LEDS?
>>51452986
CODE keyboard, maybe?
>>51443815
I forgot that, with a Filco case, you need to cut a hole on the bottom part of the case to have access to the dip switches.
Are the corsair keyboards the only mechanicals with volume rollers? Anyone know of any others.
>>51453505
They are the ones with those dedicated macro keys at that. I know that there's AHK as suggested by anon before, but the number of companies who make a fullsize keyboard that's not tenless with macro and those multimedia controls are rather few.
>>51452342
I play roguelikes (now unreal world, not really a roguelike) and you can get by without a numpad to b honest, or you can get a $3 external numpad.
>>51452570
Those caps would have either been from a GB or Originative, I bet.
>>51453505
Das Keyboard 4. I would've bought one if they weren't so damn expensive.
Are there any other ergonomic numpadesque mechanicals similar too a Razer Orbweaver? I tried one at the store and the shape is much more pleasant than just a simple flat numpad with a wristrest. And will be used for gaming and drawing.
W-would really like something other than Razer so I won't be ridiculed on /g/.

What options did you choose?
>>51432124
I've got one and play video games with it. I justified it to myself as I am a programmer too
>>51454207
gateron brown
dye sub
white led
I wish zealios was a stock thing already but I'm fine with browns
>>51453732
Could buy one hand of the ergodox.
Works great as a gamepad actually. Would be fully customizable.
>>51454245
You can't just buy the left hand of a normal ergodox if you're a righty, though. Needs the right hand to work.
The infinity dox would work, if it were available (both in a one-hand version, and at all).
>>51454231
The top dye-sub caps definitely look better.
>>51454231
>brown
>>51454303
Yeah, for only 5$+ for dye sub youd have to be mad to pick regular too
>>51454326

I suggest you RMA your fingers and brain
Leptons arranged into my planck layout... I have too much time.
>>51454286
You can build it flipped.
It is quite easy to build a left hand only ergodox.
>>51454451
Please, I would love to be enlightened.
- Where can you buy parts for only one hand? I only ever saw the PCBs and cases sold in pairs.
- If you flip the right-hand PCB over, would it even match a left-hand case? I've not seen one in person, but from what I observed the connectors wouldn't have the correct holes.
- Does putting the Teensy on the opposite side as intended lend any firmware considerations? I never got to this point in my research.
>>51431745
Got the white backlit pok3r on pre-order
Should be here next week hopefully
>>51454777
You would sure be lucky if that happened.
>>51454588
You have to buy paired pcbs, but the pcb is only like $30. You could try contacting Falbatech, they may be able to sell you just one side.
As for assembly, you just doit like normal but mirrored. Firmware programming is also flipped I suspect, so no using the configurator, gotta use tmk.
I think if you check the ergodox project site they will have more detail.

when will this meme go away?

Never.

I think liking the keyboard is enough of a reason to get it

Still waiting on my Pexon cable which was shipped on the 13th, how long does this shit usually take to arrive? I thought DHL was meant to be fast.
>>51450677
Shit build quality, but awesome features. Got to love the mechanical face buttons.
I'm thinking about getting this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823567009
It looks like a pretty good deal.
As a poorfag, I can only watch these threads. I'd like to experience the clickiness of the Cherry blues...
Sorry that this isn't for a mechanical keyboard, but what are some good rubber dome keyboards?
>>51457855
Looks cancerous.
>>51432116
damn that's nice
How much did the whole setup cost?
>>51458018
This is the best rubber dome keyboard I've ever used.

You should get a barebones model and buy a real set of caps separately.

Just paid /g/ a visit again after a few months of excl/o/sivity, see this and find a white-on-black SA inter/swedish kit. Much thanks go to you, fellow /g/entleman.
Need this to finalize my selectrix layout at the office. Also contemplating doing the same for my SA-set at home.
