And I think the majority of /g/ agrees.

this is a membrane.
topre uses rubber domes.
these are rubber domes.
Reminder that instead of Granite you could get some of the thickest PBT in the world. They are $26 for blanks on massdrop right now and there's a group buy over at geekhack that has the same sets but with the addition of some nice dyesub legends.

What are some good switches for programming? Auditory clicky switches need not apply.
I have a 6gv2 (blacks) and it's AIDS for programming because of the layout.
I'm considering browns. Maybe a QUICKFIRE XT.
>>52381762
topre.
wish I was joking.
>>52381776
I'm not paying that much for a keyboard. Also most people actually get lower WPM using mechanicals, considering buying a scissor switch keyboard desu senpai.
>>52381702
Any "clicky" switch (greens, blues). "MUH EXTRA SOUND", like mechanical keyboards weren't making enough noise already.

I know, atleast i have spares i guess.
Have you bought one in the past? Did you also boy the iso enter?
>>52381994
Yeah, I have a bag with keycaps I'll probably never use, including the ISO enter with text on it.
I recently gave up a bit and got an ANSI board too, but it's so hard to get used to it.
>>52382110
I was wondering how many cherry inserts the ISO Enter cap had, do you remember?
Mine currently has 3 and i'm not sure if that's standard or not.
>>52381663
So... basically, a membrane.
>>52382143
3 is the standard.

Are clears as heavy as blacks? Because I found blacks to be too heavy for my liking, but I'm tempted to try clears seeing how highly they're praised here.
>>52382253
Those plastic sheets in the front are membrane sheets (two of them).
One membrane sheet has rows, the other has columns, both have conductive contacts at the same places. This is how the key matrix of a membrane keyboard works. As you can probably guess, these only activate upon bottoming out, since the two contacts (one on each sheet) need to be pressed together for a key to be activated.
That sheet of plastic with bumps is a sheet of rubber domes (they also come in all kinds of sizes, some keyboards just have single rubber domes instead of sheets under the keys).
When you press down on the rubber dome on a membrane keyboard, you have to bottom out in order to activate the switch, since otherwise the membranes won't make contact.
The HHKB you see to the right also has rubber domes. But the HHKB uses an electrocapacative sensor which is on the PCB in order to detect when a key has been activated. This means that you don't have to bottom out for the key to activate. The rubber dome is just there to provide tactility and something to actually press down on.
The idiots who don't know the difference between a membrane and a rubber dome should go educate themselves about how keyboards work before arguing about them.

Just a bunch of random rubber domes.
I asked my father to bring me whatever old keyboards he had at the university storage, and he came back with an old apple extended II and a whole bunch of rubber domes. I disassembled the rubber domes just for the fuck of it.
Going to build a new keyboard with the alps switches from the apple extended.

Nothing.
I'd get in on the drop if I could justify spending any money on aftermarket keycaps. But I already went Topre, and my cherry mx board also has PBT caps already.
And I just ordered some Topre spacebars from matt3o and I'm also getting a metal backplate for a keyboard I'm building from a swedish guy.

They wanted to do ISO but the manufacturer (Gateron) just recently got access to ISO enter molds and the vendor who invested in them doesn't want to share. Isn't that nice?
>>52382696
The keycaps are high quality PBT by BSP with dyesub legends, except for the enter and escape keys that are thick doubleshots by GMK.
You won't find the BSP keys anywhere, but the current big geekhack group buy has something that very closely mimics them for $75. You could then pick up the GMK keys from something like elitekeyboards.
Waiting on this pupperino today, very excited.
>>52382790
You know it

>>52382737
Using the Numbpad Enter is actually not that bad.
The only bad part is that with most ANSI (all?) sets you only get 7 1.25 modifiers so I have to use a 1 on right control
>>52382783
Why do you order 2 space bars? Isn't 6.25 included in the common kit?
>>52382812
>Why do you order 2 space bars? Isn't 6.25 included in the common kit?
It doesnt say, i assumed it wasnt in the common kit because you could order it separately.

I hate how he divvies up important keys into separate packs. He knows that the majority of his audience only needs a 60% board, no less, no more. Some might need a split shift, and most will want a 1.5-control or fn, but that's it. I'm going to end up spending $249 buying a bunch of crap I don't actually need, because otherwise I've ordered pieces from incomplete sets.

Get the milks, trust me on this. The light grey/dark grey combo isn't total shit, but the milk/light grey combo is damn beautiful. I'd pay $60 right now if somebody had a set.
I'm not kidding either, if anybody has a light grey/milk set, let me know and we'll work out a deal. If they're dye-sub, obviously I'll pay much more.

Kinda wish they were DSA caps, but at least this way I can keep using my novelty keys without being annoyed by the profile difference.

No but this is the Swedish "console key" if you mean the one next to 1.

Yes. I don't know exactly how they mean but I got my DHL tacking code a few days ago, today it changed to "Processed". So I think it's starting to move. But for me it's coming half way round the world so I probably have some waiting to do
>>52382398

>>52383064

>>52382757
The only keys that argument is relevant to is the arrow keys, which emulating honestly is superior. No reason to ever move your hands from homerow on 60%. And the rest are used so rarely emulating is better, as it allows for smaller keyboard and therefor better hand position when using a mouse.
>>52382819
It's good practice to order an extra when you buy an expensive kit. Spacebars (especially PBT) snap easily, and they're a pain to replace, as most people don't want to separate their set. You could probably make a small fortune by ordering a shitload of these spacebars and selling them marked up when people break theirs.
Mat3o seriously should have done a better job grouping the keys in this kit. Most people want keys that replace caps and split shifts. He required buying 3-4 kits total to end up with this. See >>52383084
>>52383397
Every keyboard which requires you to press down a key is mechanical.
>>52383399
Yea one of those from Bonus will probably do the job better, nice thinking

Not the same keyboard. The board posted in the pic is the WhiteFox made by Mat3o. Fucking obnoxiously, you need to order like 4 kits of this granite set that HE MADE just to cover the damn keyboard. Mother fuck that guy annoys the shit out of me.

Carbon SA. There was a set with Orange base (+$30 on Massdrop), to be used with the black mods. Actual base looks pretty good in actual photos. I don't know if people on GeekHack have posted photos of the set with orange base, most of them are the original white-ish one.
>>52383475
A set costs as much as an actual keyboard. I still can't justify the prices. I bought one set, and I'm gonna stop there. But I like trying things out. :(
>>52383197
The funny thing is, that's not the right ISO for the kit. They had to use an ISO enter from a different key-profile mould, so anybody who's never used the ISO variant of this board are going to flip their shit again when they get a DCS enter instead of DSA

I waited 2 months longer than I was supposed to on the first KC60, on the GH60 I waited nearly half a year, I'm not going to hold my breath on this one. It's definitely worth it, though. You'll be amazed at what that little fucker can do.

>>52383904
There's no doubt the keys are uneven, but your lines are absolute shit.
>>52383505
Oh holy fuck the irony. Putting the rising sun on that keyboard is just salt in the wounds. It's like ordering an international layout with a swastika numpad
>>52382790
Can someone explain to me what exactly GON is? From what I gather, you custom configure a keyboard and they send you the parts, but I could be wrong.
>>52383589
Browns can arguably be the best MX set out there. Cherry browns are garbage and have too much grit, so they don't slide well, but Gateron browns are fucking heaven. Compare a zealio to 62g lubed (gateron) browns and you'll see that they're the exact same thing.
>>52383404

>>52383889
Yeah, US here. There's another US bro that had his shipped on the 9th, I think it just has to do with what switches or caps you bought

Because of hand positioning. If however I had 3 hands, then yes, I'd agree dedicated keys would be better, unfortunately I do not.

There's a great modification guide out there for FN layering and changing the RGB patterns to adjust to the layer you're on. On top of that, you can load whatever firmware you want, and it's NKRO. Plus, you can't leave out how many colors the RGB LEDs have, they're absolutely stunning. 5/7 would recommend.

that's what i'd do.
Reminder Granite "This is the last time it will be sold, for real this time" DSA is the appleshit of keycaps
>>52384568
I like blues, but khail blues are more gaming friendly. I only play CS and CSGO so my movement isn't too key but i like every advantage. Would you still recommend it?
>>52384035
Well of course, because a gateron brown is closer to an MX clear than an MX brown.
>>52384580
How do you like that? I have a kalih blue board (razor), I can't play CS with it because it makes so much noise so it covers in game sounds (I play with open ear headphones though)

I'm a UK fag so UK layout is nice but i could live with toggling between the two.
>>52384580
you can game just fine on any switch that isn't too heavy. But if you find the kailh better for gaming from personal experince, then I'd recommend you get that.
>>52384580
>>52384656
Imo if you're buying a keyboard for gaming in mind, I'd recommend you get a non clicky light switch.
>>52384645
I have the cooler master and it works really well, build quality is solid and works perfectly right out of the box
>>52384711
Thanks, think I'll go for that, considering I use my numpad for weapon purchases in CS.
Can you post a posture compared to a full sized?
They really look like they're trying to jew you with the Granite drop. I just want some caps for my Pok3r, but the most basic set includes the function row and doesn't include modifiers.. like what the fuck.
What do I have to do to get some nice blank PBT DSA caps for a 60%?
>>52384711
Also what's up with 0 and 00 on the numpad?
>>52384540
Read from where?
Kailh switches (which razer switches are) have shit QC and die easily
>>52381542
Ehh. I do like Topre. Would probably rank it equal to Greens, possibly lower. Would definitely not put Clears equal to Greens. I suppose I agree with the rest. I hate to think I prefer Blues to buckling spring, but I did own both types of keyboards at once and chose to use the one with Blues.

Ontop is the cooler master
Bottom is a generic dell keyboard

You're not wrong, but Razer have staff members on the floor in China doing QA.
>>52384823
Oh wow, that's a fair size difference. Thank you for taking the time to do that.

I know it's just very isolated.
>>52384906
So what does the 0 and 00 do, does it actually enter 00?
>>52383156
I dunno man I'd like to see the grey combo together, but I do admit the milk/dark grey does look very nice.
>>52384789
Just buy them from SP (the company who's manufacturing the Granite keys). You can even get the same colors as Granite, and you won't have to wait till April for them to arrive.

shift + punctuation on my layout is :
The button that disappears is <>|
>>52385151
shift + punctuation is > on ANSI, and : on ISO.
>>52384656
I game on clears.
>>52385227
My pinky sometimes get a little tired when gaming on clears, but other than that it's just fine, that's why i think lighter switches are better when buying with gaming in mind.

Nothing but rubberdomes, its not mechanical anymore
>>52385085
Obviously you have to change keyboard layout/language on your OS.

Then why are you here?
Go to reddit and smash your keyboard with a shoe
>>52385312
Rubber dome keyboards are mechanical.
Any keyboard which requires you to press down something in order for it to actuate is mechanical.
>>52385404
They arent. They are rubberdomes.
You have varing layers of plastic above the dome, but it is not mechanical. You're still suppressing a rubberdome. Not a mechanical switch that hits the circuit
>>52381710
>>52383883
but why exactly? i figured it'd be blue/green unanimously.
also i finally have a mech board and i love it i am glad i didn't buy into the "mechanical is a meme" shit, but it also is making me want to build my own now too, maybe a 60%. is it possible to stay under $150/200 building your own? is that budget even worth it?

To make people mad.
Judging by your post, I'd say it works.

>5: caused by, resulting from, or relating to a process that involves a purely physical as opposed to a chemical or biological change or process <mechanical erosion of rock>
So, what is the definition of the term "mechanical keyboard" ?
>>52383604
years ago the popular "i'm a REAL 4chan anon" go-to was to tell people to go back to reddit. these days 4chan is closer to what reddit used to be, and now reddit actually has some pleasant boards/content if you know how to move past the front page.
>>52385528
True topre fag in denial.
Its a rubberdome
Your definition does not describe anything relating to a keyboard. But nice try using it to describe it. Words have multiple meanings in different situation.
the definition we use for mechanical keyboards are:
Plastic
V
MECHANICAL SWITCH
V
CIRCUIT
Not.
plastic
V
plastic
V
coil
V
RUBBERDOME.
