Old Thread: >>52270353
I want to get a backlit, ten key mechanical keyboard that's decent for shooters. Recs?
am i fucking up big if i buy a Steelseries 6gv2 as my first mechanical keyboard? Its either this or the quickfire rapid, but i cant find it in spanish layout
>>52286817
>spanish layout
if you care about keycaps you better get an ansi board anyway.
you can get used to it quickly or remap it to spanish.
>inb4 my ñ
you can have them
>>52286770
>Korean memes are expensive edition
>Some russian keycaps
what am I missing here
>>52286852
it's a custom made korean board, with cyrillic caps.
It totalled about 450$.
>>52286834
i don't really care about keycaps, i just want a good keyboard to type on, and ive been using the spanish ISO layout all of my life, cba to get used to another different layout
>>52286858

It depends if you value your time over your money.
a 40$ set on ebay could be at your door next week.
>>52287002
not that person
but these have some nice choices with them too
I think it worth it over time since he already has old keycaps nothing too much can happen to them

>le superior nippon keyboard n key rolled over 1000 times
Does the Ducky One use standard key caps? Or does it have a different sized space bar?
what is the difference between a 145 euro keyboard and a 90 euro keyboard
>same switches
>same keycaps
does pcb matter?
is it overpaying for brand?
>>52287284
good question.
you don't get any better until you go past 200, and even then diminishing returns means you either are made of money, or there is nothing like this under 200 (see: topre)

Don't buy Unicomp. Buckling spring is dead.
>>52287300
I wanted to get topre
I really like the look of realforce but the novatouch is atleast 50 euros cheaper so what do you recommend?
Since previous post got toasted by the new thread, ...
Looking for 110 key with browns or clears or ergoclears. Want either red backlight or tricolor. Needs both USB and ps2 compatibility. Any suggestions?
Posted it in the old thread right at the end but, I am looking for a new keyboard should I get a full sized or get something smaller with a separate number pad?
>>52287348
>>52287396
just get a pok3r desu
Just bought pic related. Did i do good /g/?
>>52287396
if you want a numpad I would say get a fullsized
I rarely see mech numpads for a good price
it would be waaay cheaper
>>52287340
>so what do you recommend?
my white blank hhkb came in the mail 2 hours ago.
I'm at work and literally containing my boner until I get home and can play with it.
To decide if I liked topre, I ordered a novatouch online, played with it 2 days, then returned it and got a full refund.
Forget everything about what you know about coolermaster, the novatouch is a quality board (and the pcb has Topre printed on it, they made it).
The Realforce is better for sure but so goddamn ugly with that huge bezel.
I was only conflicted between the fc660c and the hhkb.
(pic not mine)
>>52287427
hhkb is cool but I would miss the arrowkeys too much
I thought about getting(picrelated) instead but its as expensive to recieve as a realforce87 wich adds the fkeys wich I too use on a regular basis
>>52287348
Me here, forgot to say totally open to a kit.
>>52287483
the JP hhkb as a non-standard staggering of the 4th row (zxcvbnm)
I would never get one
>>52287418
dunno why nobody's made a simple mechanical numpad with a plain black/white case for a reasonable price
>>52287506
>for a reasonable price
because in niche hobbies people are willing to spend.
why bother with affordable stuff and make 5$ profit out of 30$ when you can make a solid product for 50 and sell it for 80?
>>52287501

Is there any place to get Topre keycaps with legends on them? I saw there was a group buy for blank caps, also not wanting to pay like $6 each...
>>52287597
tough shit tobehonest
an hhkb set with legends is abotu 60$ on ebay if you mainly care about letters and are willing to integrated with other sets (see pic related)
>>52287570
Thanks for letting me know, but greens aren't buckling. I'll not be satisfied until I can find a modern buckling spring that supports full NKRO.

you should get 20% of price+shipping taxed for VAT for sure,
then I dunno if customs add anything else.
(in Italy is between 5 and 10% depending on categories).
if you pay 90+10 shipping, expect 20€ for VAT or so.
>replacing my Poker 2 with browns since it died

Hardest decision of my life.
Should I play it safe or give blue/clear a try?
>>52289113
Go with clears, they are so much better than browns.
Or get an HHKB.
>>52289124
I don't think I'm ready to shell out for a HHKB
no keyboard can be worth that price
>>52289208
The price tag becomes largely irrelevant once you're deep enough into this stuff.
CM NovaTouch is pretty nifty
I like both typing and gaming with it
>>52289208
>no keyboard can be worth that price
money has literally no value since our time on earth is limited and so you can't spend it typing on garbage.
same thing for food, wine, etc.

Any opinion on the Ducky shine 5 ? haven't see any issues reported with the led
>>52290448
Ducky is known for making good backlit keyboards.
If you like the keyboard, go for it.
Is it ok to spend £70 on a G80-3000?
I just got a Corsair Strafe RGB and it's like the shittiest thing ever, what the actual fuck. I've been spoiled by my Ducky Shine 2.
What's my next upgrade from here? Topre?

Aren't Razer greens actually green though?
What get if I want backlit keys, a 10 key, wired, labeled keys, and decent for gaming?
>>52291874
no they're blue copies. Razer greens are much more ligher green in color of the stems as well

>tl;dr i tried topre for free and liked it so i bought the memeboard
To swissbro, did the kb box inside had cellophane? Mine looked absolutely pristine but i remember seeing cellophane on youtube...
>>52292359
It's really good anon.
Buy one and you'll see for yourself.
>>52292399
You mean surrounding the keyboard inside the HHKB box? Yeah, that had cellophane with the Japanese plastic recycling logo printed on it.
I was impressed by how well packaged it was. It seems like every Japanese vendor I ever bought anything from puts great care into packaging shit properly (except for amazon.co.jp, they just strap it all to a piece of cardboard and put it in a box).
Btw i switched delete with backspace, enabled win key and switched it with alt.
Basically switch 1 3 5
>>52292474
No i meant around the black box.
Yes inside i had the plastic like it should.
>>52292521
Nope, everything outside the box was packaged just like in the picture that you posted

Bappity boopy
>>52292692
You can also get a topre with arrow keys.
Or just do what italobro did: Get a novatouch, see if you like topre and then return it and get whatever topre board appeals to you.
>>52292103
I don't have that much time to play. So I rarely play MM. Mostly faceit etc.
I think I have about 100 wins on my smurf as well. Which was GE until rank realignment it fell to LEM now
>>52292765
None of them appeal to me. The only good Topre keyboards are the Realforce and the HHKB. Realforce looks like an alternative 80's keyboard and HHKB looks nice but has a tacky layout.
Any of you with HHKBs really big into vidya? Just wondering how it feels for gaming. I play Starcraft.
test
>>52292817
I'm using the HHKB right now and I have no complaints about the layout.
If you use the FN keys a lot, then you might see yourself wanting to get a novatouch or a realforce. I only use the arrow keys semi-frequently, so I have no problem doing away with those and simply using my pinky while having the rest of my right hand working the arrow cluster.
>>52292846
I play insurgency. It took me a day or so to get used to having the control key (gets used a lot for crouching or sliding) right above the shift key, but it's quite comfortable actually.
>>52292902
Alright fuck it, Im going to buy an HHKB. Worst case scenario, I resell it.
Is the Wasd v2 good?
>>52293013
I like this recent development.
Soon enough this will be the daily topre thread.
>>52292846
On a side note, the HHKB only has 6KRO. Though my previous keyboard also only had 6KRO and that was never an issue in 400 hours of fast-paced FPS.

I have never seen or heard of a single person switch back to cherry switches after using topre.
>>52293222
I've seen multiple ones in this thread a few days ago.Pics included.
Its a fucking rubberdome,its not some godly shit.Topre fags keep the board to be part of a "higher club" then any other switch.Its placebo because its "new".Thats all this is,a fad.
If topre is so OMG GODLY why dosent it have a larger percentage of use? I know this thread and all of reddit is crazed about it solely because it is new
>>52293203
God dammit, those subs were absolutely hilarious.
>>52293285
I am amazed as it's clear as day you never tried them and yet you are trying to persuade 2 people who use them that they are just a rubberdome.
Wow.
>>52293285
Topre's been around for a fair amount of time.
It's rather the fact that it has a rather high price of entry (except for the novatouch, which is actually quite new to the market) and is far less widespread than cherry switches which you can get on a 70 bucks keyboard.
>>52293311
>>52293320
Why would i pay upward of $400 after shipping,tax,import fees,for a motherfucking rubber dome.
Id go back to my 10$ board if i wanted that.
There has been NO argument then "just try it bro,its a god send orgasm at your finger tips".
Its a meme
>>52293363
>never tried them

Ahahah it would be pathetic if only i didn't have sympathy for your poverty.
>>52293363
Mine was only 225, shipping and tax (there was none) included.
Why would spend anything more than 10 bucks on a bunch of plastic with some metals thrown in? It's just a keyboard, right?

You're in an enthusiast thread faggot, weak ass shit like that dosent work.

I'm aware of that. That's why I'm wondering why anyone would consider "it's just a rubberdome" a proper argument.
>>52293473
You can try them for free.
Novatouch on amazon, 14 days return no questions asked.
You're just mad.
>>52293501
Because german made mechanical switches are an actual switch and not a piece of cheap rubber
>>52293538
Right so i have to tie my money up on amazon to test it.
>>52293568
No anon, Japanese made rubber is superior to German plastic and metal.
>>52293583
And once you're returned it you get your money back.
Just don't break it like an idiot while testing it and you'll be fine.

Your 1000$ pc will be obsolete in 2 years.

Or just get a realforce TKL, or a realforce.
>>52295010
>how it feels
feels good, I'm just having a bit of trouble getting used to the layout of the top right corner, i keep mistaking backspace and stuff.
I'm sure I'll be fine in a couple days.
> and sounds.
tobehonest it feels very dampened, I'd say it sounds almost like what I expected the type-s to be from the youtube videos.
I'd say that feels wise the novatouch with PBT caps is about 80% there, but soundwise this is just another world.
So I'm looking for a full-size, fat enter, ps/2, nkro. Anything?
>>52295177
>>52295152
A tkl and other variations are the SAME price as a fullsize.Dont fall for the numpad meme,its wasted money for something standard on a keyboard

I dont see it in the buyers guide anywhere. Whats the consensus on the K70 RGB?
>>52296167
>>What is that?
Novatouch.
>I heard it rattles, doesn't feel nearly as good as other topres, and is in general a very poor quality topre.
It's a very high quality board, maybe not 170$ good but 120 for sure.
it's legit topre (I'm typing from an hhkb right now 10 days after a novatouch), people have opened them and the pcb is signed by Topre.
the only thing that is a bit off is the sound yes, but a good keycap set and some silencing pads can help a ton.
pic related.
Honestly if you find it under 150 go for it.

>>52296174
Switches are 100% subjective. It's what you like. Generally though, people that play games stick to reds, browns, or blues. I have a corsair k70 vengeance with blues. Reds were marketed as the gaymen switch but it really is subjective. Browns are a sort of middle ground between the two. They are tactile, but not as much as blues. Reds are linear, so they have no tactile bump.
tl;dr Get whatever switches you like. There's no "best" switch for doing X activity.
>>52296229
I have a k70 vengeance because the RGB wasn't available with blues when I got my vengeance, but I love the thing. The wrist rest is nice and the windows key disable button is convenient. I'd imagine the RGB is similar in quality.

>>52296355

Non-standard bottom row
>>52296384
Mind giving us a somewhat detailed list of your complaints with quality?
>>52297579
Left: Ducky Shine 2
Right: Corsair Strafe RGB
I was using red LEDs in this pic to show off how weak the LEDs are compared to my Shine 2. They're so bright on my Shine 2 that they actually hurt my eyes and my camera can't even pick it up properly. It's not a big deal because I don't really use LEDs, but I figure it's worth mentioning.
My biggest issue with the keyboard is that it feels completely different despite using the same keyswitch (Cherry MX blue). The keys on my Shine 2 have a very strong bounceback and feel very nice to depress. The Strafe RGB feels a lot less springy after I've pressed a key down and sounds completely different. Below is a sample of both keyboards:

In that vocaroo clip I wrote, "qwerty qwerty one two three", then backspaced a few times. The first keyboard I used is the Ducky Shine 2 and the second is the Corsair Strafe RGB. Honestly I prefer the way the Strafe RGB sounds but it just doesn't feel nearly as good as the Ducky Shine 2. Also I got shipped a unit where the "E" key sticks down (it's a cherry problem). It just feels leaps and bounds worse than the Shine 2.

Con:
Its shit
the keycaps break
non-standard bottom row
gaymer
expensive
o-rings
dying leds
you look like a faggot while using one
Pro:
>>52298338
I can get it cheaply right now and it lets you turn off leds which I always do since i hate leds.
I'm wondering, does something with all of the following exist?:
>full size
>Cherry blue MX switches
>simple white LEDs so that one may type in the dark
The LEDs in particular; I don't feel the need to broadcast to the world what an uber 1337 g4ymer I am.

I bought a Corsair K70 with Cherry MX blues. Absolutely loving it, I used to have Kailh Reds and to be honest I never really liked it that much. I love the tactile feel of blues, they make typing a joy. Fortunately I only have mild autism so I'm not bothered by the noise.
I thought about getting a tenkeyless model but I wanted the volume control wheel so I went with this full keyboard model. I kinda wanted blue backlights, but only this red model was available and I wasn't going to pay extra for RGB faggotry because I don't want to install any manufacturer bloatware to control the color.

LED isnt what makes it "bad".Its shit quality.
Buy a shine 5 and program white lights
>>52298699
Budget is 155$ cause any more and Ill have to pay 100$ extra as customs fee. Should I get a topre type heaven?
>>52298793
You can get novatouches for relatively cheap, see if you can get your hands on that.
Otherwise, allocate those 100 bucks custom fees into an HHKB and find an ebay vendor that's willing to declare it as an 18 bucks keyboard.

>Outdated links
They are not outdated. They are the correct links.
>>52298715
my friend has had one for years and he never had a problem with it. also the macros would be nice.
>>52298793
>100$ extra as customs fee
Ouch.
>>52299825
Having 1 good one out of the batch is no different from having 1 bad one out of the batch.
Overall corsair is shit quality,and should be avoided unless your sperg'ness has to come out.
>>52299925
i'm not talking about corsair :/
>>52299825
Really?
Pretty much everyone I know either had cracked keycaps stems or burned leds. And the keyboard looks like shit.
But hey, who cares? You like it? Its not shit because your friend has it? Then buy it, not my problem.
>>52300177
B-B-B-ut hes doing something wrong
>>52300177
I looked it up and the + keyboards seems to work fine without cracking. Everyone I know who has it never had an issue with the keyboard except for the leds not reaching everything on a key but that's on all the keyboards.
>>52300177
Jesus Christ that keyboards is dirty
>>52300177
Non-standard bottom row too, so not easy to replace.
All LED boards fail. You either have to learn to solder or deal with it.

Sure, but solidyear keyboards leds usually die much faster than other OEMs.
Some solidyear boards:
Rapid-i
Corsair K70/K90
G710+
Quickfire TK
Pretty much every board they make with blue/white leds have this issue.
>>52300654
I just turn off the leds on my keyboard except for the WASD and arrow keys
Found keys for my kbp v60 from an old keyboard, can anyone tell me if the old keyboard is classified as a mechanical keyboard
So why would anyone want to buy the old IBM keyboards if every keyboard has expected lifespans of x amount of keystrokes. wouldnt investing so much in such an old item(most likely) be a bad investment knowing that its life span may be very limited?
I was under the impression that a "keycap set" came with a full set of fucking keycaps, Unicomp.
Oh well, I have a pearl space bar.
>>52301566
Because it would take like 200 years of regular use to wear out the switches.
>>52301638
I've made a huge mistake...
>>52301874
What in everloving fucks name are those keycaps.
Why. Why the fuck.
>>52301874
Oh candycorn caps nice!
>>52301874
McDonalds Keyset?
Didn't Massdrop have McDonalds POS novelty keycaps at one point too?
>>52301566
By that logic, why buy anything used? You can easily get a model M for under 60 bucks. It's not exactly a huge "investment".
Also, I have a broken key on a cherry blue keyboard I bought new 4 years ago. My 25 year old model M is still working great.
>>52301566
It's not an "expected lifespan", it's "rated for". There's a difference.
Time to get a USB-PS2 and make some noise.
>>52301638
>Includes keys only. Does not include the spacebar or support frame shown in the photos.
>>52286867
You can put different keycaps on it. Or just put little stickers on it.
Just bought a g710+
Did i fucked up or done good?
Will be used for fps and LoL and the occasional mmo
Also typing

I own a unicomp keyboard and for some reason half of the keys won't work unless i have the keyboard tilted 90 degrees. Do you have any idea why this happens?
>>52304067
Because its a unicomp keyboard.
Sounds like a shitty internal connection.
>>52301537
Thats rubber dome or maybe even spring over rubber dome.
