>>51792362
because those are shit boards.
>>51792362
I don't think they do UK keyboards.
I need my big-ass enter key god damnit
>>51792390
Yeah too bad it's not a Razer Blackwidow or Corsair k70 right anon?
>>51792417
Do you srsly ever touch the top of the key?
>>51792417
here you go
>>51792450
I use the middle.
>>51792417
I didn't even know Amerikek keyboards had that funky little manlet enter until I started frequenting /g/ and its insurmountable amount of keyboard threads.

>mechanical keyboard
>audiophile
>quilting

How fucking embarrassing...
Because I've got a Model M coming in the mail.
>>51792442
Name a single reason to get this board over f.e. a varmillo.
>>51792547
>no win key
>no menu key
Ew.
Oh shit should I cop this?
Right now I'm using a $60 knock off keyboard with Chinese generic switches lmao
"Asio memetron" why did i even buy this lol, it's ight i guess tbqh familia.... i want to cop a danker oen tho
>>51792559
MxClears and TK homeboy
>>51792450
I do, but I have kinda long fingers so the rake of the keyboard doesn't really give me a choice
>>51792570
>win key
pointless
>menu key
i dont even know what this key is
>>51792606
>>51792570
>EVER touching either one of those keys
Time to rethink some things
I don't have memememe, can someone tell me how much this shit costs and if it is worth copping or not?
It requires account to see
>MX Clears
Tempting...
Are clears heavier browns?
I have the mx browns version of this keyboard for work but they don't cut if for me.
>>51792625
I use the windows key more than my functions to be sure. When's the last time you pressed F6 anon?
>>51792631
It's 150 bucks for TKL; 160 for full size.
This is the first (maybe only) time DasKB has come in mxclears... And the first time their tkl has come in any CherryMX.
>>51792362
Just got my novatouch.
I'm very sure I'll miss having labels on my keys.
Clears sound bad compared to just having topre.
>>51792691
How is the Novatouch?
>>51792684
>$150-160
Lol this especially terrible now that the Canadian dollar is so fucking shit. Nope sorry not paying $200+ for a new keyboard. That's almost the cost of my thinkpad.
>>51792717
There's no reason. Go for the White Fox drop upcoming.
>>51792712
My first real mech board after years of the disgusting K90 with reds.
Pretty heavenly typing, who knows what improvement PBT keys will give it though.
If you want a topre my advice is go for that realforce massdrop.
>>51792756
Didn't mean to quote
>media keys separate of the function keys
This is something I like and want
>>51792362
das keyboards look like shit
>>51792773
I am a sucker for MX keycaps-- that's why the Novatouch looks interesting. I wish it came in TK though.
>>51792604
TK? Do you really think there is no Varmillo board with TK?
No wonder you like DAS, you have no idea what you're talking about.
Leopold FC660C for work and Realforce 87U 55g for home.

>>51792914
Not on the current MD drop famil
>>51793016
Ohhh, then I better spend 150 bucks on a low-mid tier keyboard, instead of waiting for half a month.
>>51793054
>Das
>low-mid
So where can I find a good 733t eXXtreme ActionStealth Pro billionsOfLeds 9000+ kb?
>>51793089
I head Varmillo, Ducky, Filco and Realforce make some great gaymen keyboards
Because I don't want a keyboard that will melt.
I cancelled my commit for the E-3lue K767 when I saw this drop:
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/varmilo-va87mr
Should I get Gateron blues or Cherry MX blues? Can anyone tell me the difference?
>>51792362
I had das Keyboard 3 and learned touch typing on it. After a while I switched to my Filco Majestouch tenkeyless. I think I've been using that one for years now.
>>51792606
The win key isn't pointless, I use it as a modkey for keymapping stuff. For example, to open up a terminal emulator I use winkey + enter.
>>51793089
>every keyboard that isn't my precious shitty Das must be a gaming peripheral
Because I already own one.
If you are thinking of getting one, do they are bad ass
Why not get in on the WASD Code keyboard drop? You can get Full size / TKL with several different switches including MX clears for less money than the Das
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/code-keyboard
>>51793268
Just curious, in what way do you think Das keyboards are shity?
Can you provide an example of how keyboards are supposed to be built.
>>51793338
Yeah, by not shit OEMs.
>>51793336
Because I hate WASD caps-- like HATE HATE them. so I assume the boards are shit too.
>>51792362
Got better things to spend my money on. My AT101W is doing the job just fine.
>>51793357
I don't even own a Mech keyboard yet, I've just started lurking /mkg/ and checking out what's available on massdrop in the past month or so. I really just need to go to a store and try out some different switches in person before I actually buy anything though.
>>51793397
>6kro
>>51793401
Mx Browns are always a safe bet. Good for mk noobs.
>>51793338
Greetech switches on the compact model with insane priceing :^)
>>51793449
These are Cherry MX on the compact on this drop.
>>51793441
I'm a pretty heavy handed typist so I was thinking about clears instead... This is why I want to go try some out before I pull the trigger.
>>51793494
Yeah I slam keys, I think browns are a little too soft for me. Still-- much better than reds.
>>51793186
I hear that Gaterons are not bad for Cherry knock-offs compared to Kailh switches, and are even smoother.
>>51793186
Get Cherry Greens if you want clicky. Gateron is acceptable, but outshines Cherry for linear switches, mostly.
>>51792362
because das is shit,and not worth buying cause muh clears.
>>51794257
I do like clicky keys but feel that Cherry MX Blue is a little stiff for me. I've only been using it for about 2 weeks. Would Whites be better? I hear they're inconsistent. (I.e. keyboards advertised as MX White come with a mix of Whites/Clears)
>>51792362
Because I already own a Das Ultimate with clears
>>51793266
Awesome?
i'm bumping this thread.
Cuz I already have a Das 4 with browns and it's going to be my workhorse till the end of time.
>>51797384
There was a comparison between Cherry MX Whites and Greens. Not sure if all keyboards advertised as Whites contain a mix of Whites and Clears.
>>51797484
What did you do to your arrow keys?
>>51797616
flipped 'em around since it feels a little more ergonomic and my fingers can use less vertical effort.
Alps salmon switches in this 1986 apple 0330
>>51797660
are the keys supposed to be "piano black" or is that just your french fry finger grease?
>>51797684
>french fry finger grease
Don't make me cry anon :'^(
But it's a combination since these are the default PBT caps, later on I'll be getting some white caps so it can look more like a piano keyboard.
>>51797730
On the homerow is where the french fry finger grease is most prominent since the colemak keymap/layout focuses on the homerow for efficiency.
>>51792606
winkey+L is pretty useful for locking
also winkey+D
>>51793336
the keycaps are a little cheap, but other than that it's a fantastic board. if the keycaps really bother you you can always replace them
>>51792606
unless you're not on a windows OS, win key + arrow key is significantly quicker and more comfortable than using your mouse to do the same task.
>>51793357
they aren't shit. I have a CODE with clears and it's great. keycaps do bother me a little bit, but they aren't nearly as bad as everyone says, especially to someone who doesn't know the difference.
>>51793494
clears are dank
>>51797730
sorry anon, that was tasteless of me-- as opposed to french fries, which are very tasteful.
>>51797907
I dunno, I just get the feeling that CODEs are swapmeet boards. Perhaps I'm wrong.
>>51797983
well I can see why you'd think that, and the keycaps are certainly a bit of a turn off, but I really like mine. Hasn't given me any problems at all
>>51792362
Too big. I'm in for a Pok3r.
Also, Canadian here, exchange rates and taxes mean that I don't get as good of a deal from Massdrop as it would seem.
>>51792362
Because I just bought blues 6 months ago.
>>51797484
>>51797616
Dat feels nice, homie.
Because it's awful.
Just because you bought it doesn't mean it's good. Stop looking for validation on your retarded purchase on a Chinese origami BBS
>>51798012
>Pok3r
Oh hi you must be from Reddit. Do you also have a Surface Pro?
I already own a Filco Majestouch-2 that has yet to fail me. I don't need another keyboard.
>>51798075
I didn't buy it-- It hasn't dropped yet, silly.
What do you mean by CHINESE ORIGAMI BBS?
>>51798096
I don't blame you. From what I understand, the Filco MT is a god-tier keyboard.
