I like to post my stuff on here, but I also try to help everyone looking for advice.
You want a 75% keyboard if you actually use the F-keys, a 66% or the kbp v60 if you only need arrowkeys and a 60% keyboard if you don't use either very often.

Can someone give me a quick rundown on board types/ correct me if I am wrong

Full size- numpad, fn keys, home cluster
tenkeyless - no numpad
75% - no numpad, button layout changed to move home cluster and arrow keys into regular typing area
60% - same as 75% but no fn keys

I have one of these Blackwidow boards that I got for Christmas. I'm thinking of getting some custom keycaps.

I can see the bottom row (and probably the macro buttons) are nonstandard. Would it be silly to just replace the WASD and a few of the number keys (and maybe tab) for "mug gayms"? The factory keycaps are kinda slippery, and I feel like they're going to shine within only a couple more months. PBT caps seem nice but I've never used them.

It's not Cherry switches, but as far as I know, Razer used their expired patents to clone Blues. Should be compatible right?

Anybody here swapped keycaps on this board? I know some of you guys are here lurking, I've seen your Blackwidows on /bst/.
>>
>>53701453
there is so much wasted space on that keyboard. looks like it just takes way more space than necessary
>>
>>53701453
That 6.5u spacebar fucks you in the ass.
>>
>>53701479
>looks like it just takes way more space than necessary
how did you manage to hack into RAZR's design server?
>>
>>53695764
How hard was it to swap cases? Did you have to drill any holes on the plate?
From what I hear, matias 60% has problems with metal cases.
>>
>>53701453
They use the same size stem as cherrys so there's no problem in keycaps
As you say the problem here is non standard bottom row

The Macro keys are also be a problem. I know there's a NPKC pbt blank set which covers this bottom row.
>>
>>53701513
it's actually 6.0u
>>
>>53701479
It's kind of ridiculous actually. I have a big desk, so it's not too much of an issue, but yeah, design is kind of shit. I never use the macro keys either.
The only reason I haven't sold this on craigslist / ebay is because the switches are actually rather nice. It's a clone of Blue but with supposedly a higher up actuation point. It genuinely feels nice when playing games. It's also pretty nice for typing sessions too. I like the usb passthrough too, though that's a common feature on cheaper boards as well.
I rate this thing 6/10. It's a mixed bag, and was pretty pricey. Only buy if you really buy into the Razer Green switches.
>>
what keycap maker prints the size and row underneath the keycap itself
>>
>>53701622
npkc have row at least
>>
Dumb question, but...

Is the clectrical contact for the board in the switch itself, or the board? How easy would it be to make your own completely custom layout?

Must be Tenkeyless

It also has cruddy abs keycaps and possibly becuase of this is comes across as sound clicky.

Do cherry browns get shat on on this board? I just bought one. I used to have an old black widow keyboard with blues that crapped out on me. Decided the click might have been too much.

Eh, I guess it would have to be Topre. SKCM Alps are great and all, but they don't win out over the smoothness, snappiness, and stability of nipponese cup rubber.

I'm still curious to compare Matias to the complicated Alps - I'll be getting a board with some QCs in the next couple months.

>>53706618
all mechanical keyboards have long travel save for logitech's romer shit, but people say those are mushy.

what you should do is get a board with greens (loud)/clears (quiet) and train yourself not to bottom out the keys. that's how you get short travel on a mech. you can also install o-rings or rubber dampeners that literally stop the key from going all the way down, but can end up making them feel slightly mushy if you hard bottom

remove the word meme and they are valid criticisms. RGB is ugly. Corsair makes fucking "gaming" products that are low quality and overpriced. The thing is unnecessarily large especially with that wrist wrest. It's your first step into a brave new world but you should have done more research.

Alright, I'll just spend an extra $70 importing an ANSI keyboard from a seller I can't easily hold responsible if something goes wrong.
Then I can spend time learning a keyboard layout different from the one I have deeply imprinted into my memory over the course of many years.
Oh wait, I have no reason to.

I don't see how that shitty analogy applies. You still haven't given any reasons to switch.

I've also yet to find a source of good ANSI keyboards within the EU without a lot of extra markup or fees. It's not like I haven't browsed a good amount of stores either.
