Today I snatched the last KUL ES-87 with MX Greens in Europe.
I would feel very proud but I already have more Keyboards than any normal human being would buy in their whole lifetime.
>>52117469
the numbers being under the symbols on the top row instead of next to eachother where the LED actually emits from. same with the < > ? ; ' [ ] keys. all aside from those, it would be perfect.
>>52125641
Clacks are worth it honestly. If people wanna pay that much, it clearly makes them worth that much. I bought one for 23 dollars brand new and a week later sold it for $85. Should have held onto it :^(
>>52125641
>>52126289
What even is that. Just a single keycap? What?
>>52126289
>>52126460
It's a line of 'handmade' keycaps from one user on GH.
Because the guy restricts the sale of keycaps, the price of them is stupidly high.
It's a fucking joke now.
>>52126460
>>52126980
Well yeah, they're artisan quality caps, and that makes them the best. You wouldn't want something that isn't the best, right anons?
>>52126980
>>52127012
I'd trust factory made over hand made any day. What's the deal.

How smooth are the switches on a SteelSeries 6Gv2?
And is it just the reviewers on amazon or does Cooler Master really ship faulty products
>>52125641
>>52127127
Some people have more dollars than sense.
The caps are likely placebo-tier although I can't say for sure because I'll never try them.
Last year (December of '14) I bought a new Das Model S with MX Browns for $112, now if you go and look up this keyboard it sells for $140. The demand mechanical keyboards has been going up plenty over the last several years. It looks like keycaps are no different if they fit some niche market.
>>52127311
>How smooth are the switches on a SteelSeries 6Gv2?
I have SS 6gv2 with blacks. I don't have any complains about the switches or the keyboard body.
The only real problem with that keyboard is non standard layout. It's not ISO or ANSI.
Finding full keycap sets for 6gv2 would be nearly impossible. Or you will have to skip Enter and Spacebar.
>>52127389
>Some people have more dollars than sense.
Yeah keyboard-fags are entry level audiophiles.
It's pretty hard to jew someone with UNIQUE and PREMIUM tactile feelings so jews have pretty limited options with keyboards.
Images like that make me cringe.
Hipster shit.
It can't be helped.
I just got my first mech keyboard for christmas today and it's pretty neat to type on. Two questions I had:
1. O-rings, they kind of muffle the click noise on the keypress, right? (I've got MX Reds, so there's no switch click, just the noise of the key bottoming out.)
2. Is it worth the 5-10 bucks to get one of those key extractors if I'm going to be adding rings/switching out keycaps?
>tfw you purchased three skulls from a first time buyer only group buy on GH and then sold the caps on ebay 3 years later for over 100 dollars each
>>52127698
My WASD v2 w/blues has the red O rings on it and they do quiet it down a little bit. The click is still very audible, but it sounds less plasticky when bottoming out. It makes the cheap WASD caps feel much better when pressed, as well. More dense and solid.
I would get a key extractor if you plan on fiddling with the keyboard, yes. No sense in breaking a cap or, god forbid, a switch. If your mech is backlit, a broken switch will be a real pain in the ass to fix.
>>52125667
How do greens feel? I'm trying too move on from my buckling springs and I've been debating between alps or mx greens.
>>52127953
Okay, cool.
One other question, I've heard people mention that there are keycaps with tops that aren't the high-edged, 'cupped' shape. I liked that my old keyboard had keys that were fairly flat surfaces. Is there a special name for keycaps like that I could search for?
>>52127767
Hi friend. I've used multiple identities to buy and then resell so called artisan keycaps as well as normal but rare sets. If there's a group buy for exclusive caps I'll get in even if I'm never going to use them.
People are so stupid and prices are so inflated that I've made thousands of dollars from selling these tiny pieces of plastic.
>>52128159
This might help you out a bit.
If you want mostly flat with minimal curvature, DSA caps are probably going to be the best bet and the easiest to find.
Signatureplastics (AKA pimpmykeyboard) has these types of caps in stock.
The F and J keys are "deep dish" so that you can find the home row easier. But the rest of the keys are mostly flat topped, and the profile is flat from row to row.
>>52125641
Could have gotten a good coffee machine with that
>>52127554
thanks for the reply
how are blacks, are they soft enough or does it really feel like a hard sponge as all the haters seem to claim
>>52128323
and was it really worth the money?
>>52128446
>how are blacks, are they soft enough or does it really feel like a hard sponge as all the haters seem to claim
Blacks are perfectly fine.
There are some obnoxious fangays of the loudest clicky blue but there's absolutely no difference in quality of switches. You can't say that one switch is better than another. It's all about your own preferences.
>>52128530
But blues are horrible for gaming. It registers on the uptake. So a red, would be "better" at gaming. Not really a preference, just the facts.
>>52128746
plenty of starcraft players praise blue switches and some pros use them too, brown and blue are the most popular among RTS players

>I ordered TWO Filco Majestouch-2 tenkeyless Ninja keyboards, with mx browns, from Amazon. They arrived yesterday, and at first I was thrilled to get these beautiful keyboards.
>Then, after some testing, I noticed... PING!, BOING!, ZING! - actually just the same ringing tone, with varying degrees of loudness, when releasing the Back Space, Enter, and other keys in that general area.

Bonjwa Flash plays on Razer shit.
Mechfags BTFO.
>>52129000
Well, it makes sense since razer has this thingy where the switches activate like .1 millimeter earlier. Gaymers buy into shit like that like all hell.
Also, being a pro gamer does not prevent you from having bad taste and/or getting sponsored.
>>52129057
>Also, being a pro gamer does not prevent you from having bad taste and/or getting sponsored.
Of course. All pro gamers are playing on shit their sponsors give them.
No one actually cares if it's super premium topre or some cheap razer.

About how much should you expect to pay for a decent set of keycaps for a full-size keyboard?
>>52127224
I just bought the k70 MX blue led
Love it so far
>>52128922
You mean the click and bottoming out?
Or the reverberation?
Youll have it on good quality boards,and boards with metal cases
>>52129612
40-100 usd depending on design/material etc.
>>52129754
Filco owners from that thread say that it happens only on TKL version and not on full size.
>>52128819
If they aren't being sponsored by a keyboard company most still use the Samsung DT35 or the cheapest one they can find.
What are some good full browns with a wristpad?
K70 vs g710+ vs Cougar 600, what do
Anyone know where I can buy a full set of white keycaps, that have the letters transparent for my LEDs? My keyboard is black and I bought a set of blue WASD, Arrows, and 1-0, but I want to swap out the rest as well.
>>52130000
Vortex makes a doubleshot translucent PBT+POM set.
I'm using it right now.
>>52130044
>but i think the legends are blue backlit
wat
The legends are white, or rather a translucent kind of grey. I don't know what gives you the idea that the legends are blue.
>>52129863
Where are those keyboards sold?
>>52130082
Looks like a custom from gonskeyboardworks.com to me
>>52130082
>>52130103

WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU SPEND 250+ ON A FUCKING KEYBOARD
>>52128029
Nothing really compares to buckling springs. MX Greens feel nice, but they just don't feel as sturdy or solid as a buckling spring switch. I think that if the slider was a larger diameter or the stem was larger, it would have the solid feel of buckling springs.
Buckling springs = finely machined industrial equipment
Cherry MX = well made consumer electronics
Pic related, my Model M.
What's the best 'basic', full-size mechanical? Not interested in gaymur ricing bullshit, or volume knobs, or macro keys, or whatever. Just a work keyboard, preferably with brown switches and preferably under $100.
It seems like all the keyboards I look at have flames and retarded red LED lights on them and I don't want that shit.
>>52130138
No problem.
Gons's stuff is nice, but you can easily pay 600 bucks for a full keyboard that you assemble yourself. Seriously, I once considered it myself before I found out how good topre feels.
>>52130155
Because you want something that happens to cost more than 250 bucks.
I recently noticed that once you're into something, the pricetag does not become a matter of whether or not you're going to get it, but just when your budget will allow you to get it.
>>52130212
>preferably with brown switches
Don't do it. You're making a mistake.
>>52130212
Order a Model M on eBay or get a Cherry board

Why do all the asian made gaming & mech keyboards have this Enter button layout? Isn't it annoying hitting the "\|" key?
>>52130494
ISO/IEC 9995 keyboards have this layout
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_9995
>>52130494
That's a common layout everywhere but North America I belive.
Asian, European, and American companies produce boards with this layout.
>>52127660
So basically the image that you posted.
>>52130602
I think that was implied

alright /mkg/ serious question.
I got my first mechanical for christmas, and it's absolutely great. I average about 95 wpm on kailh blue switches. But that's only using 7 fingers, because for some reason I never realized that I developed the awful habit of never using my left pinky. I'm going back now to re teach myself how to type the proper way and I'm down to about 70 wpm with quite a few errors.
Are there any quick ways to get myself back up to speed and hopefully faster than before? perhaps an online typing speed trainer that you all would recommend?
(also any info on how to train myself to not bottom out so hard would be great)
used a bunch of coupons to get a mx blue quickfire TK for cheap and the down arrow doesn't click. I heard this might fix itself over time. Is that bullshit or true?
less important but the /? key led died after 5 minutes of use too. I would return it but I would have to pay shipping and a restocking fee for a board I got for $60.
p bad experience with my first mechanical.

I know that's the newer one with the fake cherries but I have the one with MX blues from some sort of sale where it was the cheapest with blues at the time and it's honestly a good keyboard. the keys are a good shape for me compared to a coolermaster one. Also the rubber pads mostly came off at some point but I replaced with sugru and it's all good since.

where in gods name do I get ISO DE keycaps? only ones I found are on the corus site, vortex pcb caps.
Are metal keycaps even remotely okay? I am tempted to get a set, but I am afraid they would be annoying or painful to type on.
>tfw got 340$ worth of caps on this bad boy

>>52134248
I don't get the appeal of big clunky off-color relief keycaps.

A few nice slabs of wood and a planer is a bit more.
A few nice slabs of wood, a planer, and a table saw is more.
A few nice slabs of wood, a planer, a table saw, stain, assorted sanding paper, and some wax or buffing oil is even more.

The POK3R is shit anyway, the build quality is terrible, if you want a good quality board then just buy the Leopold FC660m (2015 edition) standard keycaps, arrow keys, dipswitches, better functionality and an all around better keyboard.

>>52136476
wow nigger
packaging is usually bought wholesale, so it's very cheap for the business (so that's fucking pennies for a bubble mailer, box a dime or two depending on quality)
tracking is usually included already, USPS first class for example is the service I use the most for my business
shipping insurance depends on the cost of the item, so I doubt it was anything over $1-2
Soooo, that's: $2-3 insurance, $3-4 to ship the item (i really fucking doubt a few switches weight that much) and $1-2 for packaing
That's less than $10.
The only reason those niggers jew is because they use overpriced UPS/Fedex
Packages are always treated like shit so, fuck them.

it's pretty bad yeah, I usually use UPS for national shipping.
Funnily enough, I wrote the load balancing rules for their package tracking system (which unfortunately can't fix the fact that the application itself is shit) as they are one of our clients.
Also Italian customs are known to be shitty, take long time and try to spill money everytime. Hopefully the seller didn't forget to declare 10$ as value ;^)

Yes, we can declare a low value for you. We often receive this request and it is no problem. We usually declare about 10% of the real value.

I don't think they even exist, anon. Mechanical keys are all the same size and shape
I'm curious what makes a company decide to go with a non-standard layout. What are the positives of doing that?
>>52137939
Paying lip service to the gaymen crowd without actually doing anything useful.
I'm guessing it's just their design department that thinks "We could make the windows key smaller so people don't accidentally press it" (as if that ever happens). It's not really a feature significant enough to be advertised, so they just do it and leave it at that.
Gaymen keyboards with non-standard bottom rows aren't really designed with the enthusiast community in mind, so they don't give two shits about aftermarket keycaps.
All in all, I'd say it comes down to someone having a stupid idea and everyone else not caring or being just as stupid. Something that happens far too much. (I'm looking at you, Ducky).
>>52136793
The switches, sure. But it's mostly about keycaps and the keyboard body. I see no reason why that can't work.
Also I think I'm confusing terms. I want chiclet keyboard I think. Basically, I like the aestetics of separate flat keycaps and small travel distance.
Where do I get a nice mechanical keyboard with an ISO (spanish) layout?

you get the nice punctuation placement, plus you get to keep all your àèìòêâãõ etc.

I get you, but don't like it.
>needing 2 keystrokes for my characters
>>52138534
Yeah I had that issue too being romanian. Switching from ISO to ANSI was amazing.
I got used to it in less than a 3 months and it's so much better. I went from 70-90WPM to 130

How do topre switches compare to Cherry MX and rubber dome switches?
>>52138847
you could search the archive and read 100s of replies (including a lot of mine)
but the short answer is you gotta try them.
too bad that when you do, there's no going back so byebye money
>>52138847
They are rubber domes.
>>52129815
most nonsponsored players use filco keyboards
but there are also plenty of those using the DT35 so you aren't wrong
>>52139291
>most nonsponsored players use filco keyboards
Filco must be really popular in Asia and easy to obtain.
Here's Chinese dotards using Filcos as well.
>>52139594
Exactly.
Leopolds Filcos and a bunch of these brands that we see as really good are much cheaper in gook/chink land.
>>52139610
Filco can be had under $100 in Japan.
Does MX Blue switch type annoy someone?
I want to get this but there's only MX Blue version.
I've been using MX Blacks for a while.
>>52139767
Green is best.
>>52139594
easier than in europe that's for sure
and cheaper, since they're probably assembled in taiwan
>>52139767
i tried blues, didn't like them and went for blacks
weren't terrible, but they were simply too soft for my liking and overly clicky. felt like a typewriter somewhat
>>52130719
That model has Cherry ML switches. You either hate them or like them. They're similar to browns or clears bump wise but feel extremely scratchy without lube. They're designed for low profile keyboard.
No, it's MX Red, Silent and Black users should stay in >>>/v/ and never come back edition
>>52140217

what ideas have Ducky had in the past couple years that are stupid? afaik all of their keyboards have standard layouts. nothing gamer about their boards unless you count LEDs.
you're probably thinking of Corsair
>>52140270
OI VEY!
SHUT IT DOWN THE GOYIM KNOWS!
>>52140280
Nothing in terms of layout. It's just the part where they put the dip switch to disable the windows key on the bottom of the keyboard or the DPI changer on the bottom of their new gaming mouse.
It's not really a huge issue or anything, I just kind of wonder what they were thinking when someone suggested that they'd put those things in the least accessible spot possible and everyone just went with it.
>>52140317
mm, alright. that's fair.
i wasn't even aware of the DPI changer on their mouse. that IS pretty fuckin stupid.
Open question;
How much did you spend on your keyboard?

I bet these faggots have a Macbook they use their $250 HHKB with.
>>52140348
1st keyboard: Cherry MX Board 3.0 with browns + the wrist rest : About 80 bucks
2nd keyboard (curently using this one): Ducky Shine 4 with clears + vortex doubleshot pbt+pom translucent keycaps (see pic related) : 150 for the keyboard, another 40 bucks for the shipping because I wanted ANSI for muh aftermarket keycaps, 40 bucks import tax. Then another 45 for the keycaps + shipping. So almost 300 bucks in total.
3rd keyboard (waiting for this to get shipped): Dark HHKB with blank keycaps. 225 bucks for the keyboard and another 5 for shipping (EMS shipping with full tracking and insurance, sasuga Japan). It seems that the vendor is quite willing to declare it at 10% of the actual price, so I'm guessing I won't get my ass torn open by import tax this time. 230 bucks in total, will probably be my endgame for quite some time.

It's an almost free hobby if you are a Jew:
Poker2 with blues, bought for 59€, sold a year later for 55€
Cm novatouch, 105€ on sale, played around some days with it (PIC related), decided I love topre, returned it and got full refund
Hhkb white with blanks: same as anon above, 210€ and praying no customs
Is this worth getting? Need help getting a new mech keyboard
>>52141075
>Is this worth getting?
No.
The only thing which this keyboard does good is the backlighting and the fact that it has media keys. Everything else on this thing is literal shit.
I don't understand spending hundreds of dollars on keycaps. Mine were like, $30, and that feels like too much for a portion of a keyboard.
Do you people spend so frivolously short-term because you lack the ability to think in the long-term?
>>52141140
You got a set of granite for 30 bucks?
>Do you people spend so frivolously short-term because you lack the ability to think in the long-term?
Spending long-term is kind of difficult if you're only paying for something once and then it's yours. I'm not really sure what you're trying to say here other than the fact that you're being pretentious and that you're bad at it.
I think it's quite the opposite. People spend a large amount on keycaps since they will then last them quite some time. Or maybe they just like mechanical keyboards and keycaps that you can put on mechanical keyboards and don't really care about the price in the first place.
I have a feeling that the latter is the case with most people (me included). Keycaps aren't always cheap, and if you're into this and want a set of keycaps, then the price becomes rather irrelevant quite quickly. Not everyone feels the same about how much they are willing to spend on something.
>>52141140
I don't understand spending 150$ on anime figurine, but I don't go sperging on /a/.
>>52141140
the keycaps in that pic were $30?

you are a child and you and everything you believe are the cancer.
this is 4chan, and once upon a time that meant something. it meant we checked our egos at the door in the spirit of having fun and not taking ourselves seriously. that was when adults controlled this place, but those times will never come back. there will never be enough good people left to stand up against your childish high-school level sectarianism, your empty buzzwords and your entitled little fevered ego. but i'll still be here to remind you, you are the cancer.
you are not special, you are not exceptional, and your ego is not worth one fucking red cent. grow up and get over yourself, please, and quickly.
