I know that was a huge turnoff, but GMK ABS is still pretty good, though I might not pick it up if its over 70 bucks

Let's settle this once and for all.
Is the Pok3r the best 60% keyboard on the market?

>>56485286
yes

>>56485286
no.
The v60 comes out in more switches

>>56485366
It doesn't have an aluminum frame or nice keycaps though. The design of it is worse too.

>>56485451
aluminum frames are memes
plastic is obviously better for sound
also keycaps don't matter because most people change them

>>56485477

how do they compare to, say, cherry MX blues?

Is it really that hard to find ISO Keycaps? I'm looking into getting a TKL, but would like to keep using ISO, because i'm used to it and accents, but they are harder to find, and everyone says keycaps are much harder to come by, and much more expensive

>>56485780

Those timeline is for people who were part of the group buy. No sets have arrived yet.
However, when the sets arrive Originative will have leftovers to sell. ($90, the group buy price was $80)

Go to mcdonalds and work a two hour shift then buy an alps keyboard

Didn't get to see the replies before the old one 404'd. Can I make a custom mech with just a laser cutter and water jet? I should probably clarify, I'll buy all the caps and electronics, I just want a custom frame.

>>56487518

She's great. We didn't get around to getting a shoe lace so the top could be tied shut but it's a little tight with the full keyboard in. If I get back into mechanical keyboards maybe she'll help me make one with a zipper, since I'm not good with sowing

>>56485286
No.

The keycaps are laser-etched and the metal case is spray painted. And it's not fully programmable either. The pok3r is a fucking joke that disguises itself as a good deal. If you want a good 60℅, get one with a plastic case and abs caps, then upgrade both to your liking with something that isn't shit.

>>56488524
Not on the market, and not that great of a deal either.

>>56486161
>>56486325

The mechanism itself doesn't really make noise on linear/tactile switches, but without a rubber damper the plastic on plastic clack from bottoming out the key travel certainly will. O-rings or dampened switches alleviate that problem.

I've been using the same Dell membrane keyboard for about 11 years. I play FPS video games for fun. An incredulous buddy of mine is recommending I check out the Varmilo VB87M available on massdrop for about $125 US.

Is this a decent entry level buy? How the hell do I know if I will even like mechanical keyboards? I mean, I get that they are more precise than membranes, but is that right for me? I wish I could try some out.

>>56488540
You can get Korean customs with those features.

I don't really see how a keyboard that makes a seeking point out of pbt keycaps and a metal case is a good deal when you'll eventually want to upgrade both because the legends fade and the paint on the case has chipped.

>>56488600
*selling point, fucking swipe keyboard

>>56483077
>The best tactile switch that's affordable would be a white Alps

Whites are clicky, though. It's the black Alps that are tactile and non-clicky. Also plentiful in the form of Dell bigfoot keyboards.

>>56488591

A fruity backlit bluetooth TKL is a bit of a drastic change from of 104-key wired Dell.

Do you not have any computer shops nearby? They'll probably have some on display that you can try.

Also Gatreon switches > Cherry switches.

>>56489019
Thanks, yeah it seems like a pretty drastic change. My numpad and USB wire do not bother me in the least. I asked him if there is one available without the backlighting and he says there is, so at least there's that. Also this one I'm looking at is the Gateron clear variant, if that helps.

I'm going to try to find a mechanical keyboard to play around with at a local shop to see if I even like the feeling. I can afford just about any keyboard, I just don't want to make the wrong choice.

I know cherry's choice of materials and build quality has been utter shit since the late 90s but come on

>>56486168
I get that its imitating the style of keyboards sold in japan, but n oone ever types with direct input of kana, i've asked, so why not just bind your right super key as conversion, and just get that special keykap?
Personally I'd only even use it for entering and exiting IME mode, it feels more convenient to use shift or capslock for katakana.

>As much as people want to talk crap on Razer's "knockoff" switches, they have always felt the most consistant to me. Owned 3 keyboards and not a single issues. I love the k70 rgb but this inconsistency is making me think twice. Going to wait to rma mine until hopefully this issue is fixed.

>b-but muh legit cherry mx

How can you tell if keycaps fit on your keyboard? I am looking at a keyboard online, but I want to change the keycaps out and I don't know how to make sure that they're cheaply replaceable. Can I just take the keycaps off of my old cheapo rubber dome?

Any decent 61 key Nordic keyboards?

>>56490554
cherry mx and its clones are by far the most common, other than that you need to make sure the layout is compatible (shouldn't be a problem if you get a standard ANSI layout) and you shouldn't mix keycaps of different profiles

>>56490671
https://corus-kb.com/en/pok3r/28-poker-3-pbt-iso-nordic-alu-casing-black-version.html

but consider switching to ANSI, especially if you do programming

It's pretty experimental business since I just have a bunch of things that I wanted to try out. Not sure if I'll end up using it as a macro pad, keyboard or just controlling things with an arduino and using this as a switchpad.

>>56491263
Nowhere, it's based on the planck, but the vertical key spacing is probably a bit off, and it's one or two columns shorter.

And that's it for now. Next step is to decide on the switches (I'm thinking either cherry green or white, depending what I'll be using it for) and to design a mounting plate in with some CAD software and have it cut.

But that's not going to happen that soon, I'll be busy building a CNC machine next week.

>>56492763
Not at all, switchboard just loosened up a bit

what keyboard did you buy?

>>56494517

rapid-i

>>56494493
on what planet???

the last f62 sold for almost 800 bucks on ebay, and the f50 for 300. there hasn't even been a single f77 sold in the last ~2 years.

those other ones are model Ms, so I dunno why you brought up 83 and 49 key plastic boards.

>>56494504
okay why not buy a purple filter for 10 bucks then cut it into shape

maybe i'll do that man, i only recently got it and didnt have time to fuck around yet

only found that theres a quicker solution for it on banggood because i saw a pic of a rapid-i with the purple covers and it looked ideal for me, wouldnt mind to pay the ten bucks for it but yeah it seems i'll need to DIY and hope that it looks good

i use my keyboard mainly for programming and casual gaming (once every month or so)

should i go with mx blue or brown? right now i'm leaning towards brown but i never had a mechanical keyboard before so i'm undecided. is blue much better for typing? i don't really care if it impacts my gaming performance but i'm worried about the clicky sound

So I can't afford to buy a complicated blue alps switch, but someone is selling a KPT blue switch which I can afford. The question is do they feel similar enough or should I not bother. Its 50 bucks and comes with this weird layout their is no Japanese text in the one im getting

>>56494895
kpts are decently close to them, 50 bucks is about the standard market rate.

just make sure you know how to convert the interface, there's some real oddballs for those.

>>56494735

found what you're talking about, but they're sold only in huge rolls here for the same amount of money as the keyboard itself costs

guess i'll have to call them and see if they can sell me a little piece of it or ship the small one from abroad

why is everything so fucking hard to get here, its like im still living in the ussr or something

>>56494929
you can do it with an oscilloscope right? I've seen some guides on how to do it or are they trolls.

>>56495002
hmm.. It might be cheaper to import it into Russia. The thing weighs like 0.2 kilos with all the bubble wrap they stuff into the package.

Each manufacturer sells them differently. I went with lee because it was the first thing that came up

yes, but you have to effectively reverse-engineer how the controller handles signals from each key/matrix.

that's very difficult and time consuming, and you still have to wire up the teensy/arduino and setup the firmware.

if it's AT/XT/PS2/ADB I'd go for it, otherwise might not be worth all this hassle.

I see... well the interface is PS2 and I can't seem to find much on this model. I might pick it up and if I can't get it to work i'll desolder the switches and use them for something else

HHKb or FC660? I'm used to having caps as FN, so having it as CTRL might be weird, but other than that the layout sounds cool. FC660 sounds fun because 65% is cool. Currently using Pok3r

I also got a wordpress blog, but wordpress wants money from me for a custom domain name. I don't feel a whole lot like giving them money if I could just set up a server myself, but on the other hand the cost of that is probably lower than the annual energy bill for having a mac mini run as a server 24/7, so I have a feeling that I'll just end up going with wordpress.

with the free ftp server, you do mean a server that's hosted by me?
Like, I host the server, and then I have wordpress quasi-embedded on there?

I feel like just doing it via wordpress will run me the cheapest out of all options, given the energy bill that comes with hosting your own server and what "cheap hosting" (I don't want your goddamn twelve month plan, I want to pay on a monthly basis ffs).

Guess I'll look around for some more cheap hosting.

>>56496907
By free ftp server I actually meant a free hosting that allows to also bind a domain.

for example:
http://www.bplaced.net/

When hosting your own server you need to know things about server security (can be researched with "hardening debian" for example), handling ddos attacks (can be handled by cloudflare) and much more, so the easier way is to make someone else deal with all this for free.

Its an Eldorado Cnc lathe, It looks like pic related. I've done some pretty stupid stuff with it like bending a 0.75 inch thick steel axial with an aluminum cutting bit. That was quite possible by proudest achievement. My second was I had to shorten down a steel spacer by an eighth of an inch, this time I used a cobalt bit. I decided not to use any coolant and I ended up setting the thing on fire while spinning at 2000rpm. It was a very beautiful blue hue with dark red ends

Manga time is a monthly magazine, there's a whole bunch of them under that name actually.

Not anymore. The one I used blew all its motors (not my fault it was my boss). It would have cost lots of money to fix so I took it for free and we bought a much much fancier one. I managed to fix one of the motors somewhat, the other is dead and can't be fixed

You can also just send me yours to the address I mentioned here >>56497836

>>56497865
The build quality is good anyway, although I've only used it for about 2 weeks now.

If you want to know what the keyboard is, it is: Masterkeys Pro M. I'm using the blue switch version. I payed $760 (HKD) for it when I was in HK.

gateron and noppoo switches supposedly feel better and sharper. go for blues or greens imo. you can go to any shop that has gaming keyboards (razer, corsair, logitech, cooler master) because they tend to be mechanical these days or you can order a switch tester online

All cherries feel cheap because they are cheap. Alps and topre switches are actually made with some quality standards.

Sup /mkg/, looking to buy a budget Cherry MX Red or similar switch board that needs to be full size around $100. I do a ton of typing for work and need something with little to no resistance. Looking at these but having some issues with each...

Rosewill RK-9000V2 RE - Looks like exactly what I want but apparently the USB connection is really shitty. Anyone that's used one please chime in.

SteelSeries 6Gv2 - Tiny right shift and weirdly shaped enter key.

CM Storm QuickFire Ultimate - Absolutely ugly typeface and red backlighting.

with a tactile bump you can feel the actuation point and quickly move from key to key, so if your good enough you don't have to bottom out which is actually a really nice feeling

>>56500561
Blue complicated alps. Getting my hands on an acer at101 was a real bastard but these switches are MEATY.

are clicky switches a meme? is a tactile bump enough?

>>56501128
with cherry switches the tactile bump is really soft, you can't feel it at all if you are going to fast so a clicky switch would be good. No other switches like black alps have a much nice tactile bump and aren't clicky, but I don't care

what's the best gateron

>>56501189
wow I formatted that second sentence poorly. I meant to say that there is no other tactile and nonclicky switch that could compete with black alps

>>56501212
Any of the linear ones. Clear, red or black.

Going to buy this.
Can I order any custom keycaps for this or are there certain sizes of keys between keyboards?
I have no idea tbqh.

I don't want to buy it and then find out I can't change the keys

>>56501767
Is it concidered edgy to use an old IBM bucklikg spring?

>>56502046
It uses the most common layout there is so no there won't be any issues.

>>56502120
What does edginess have to do with a keyboard that no one else but you will see, also why are you asking me?

What's the general thought on the Das Keyboard 4 Professional? Never owned a mech keyboard before, was looking into buying this one. Thoughts?

>>56501394

Scoured thrift shops for months. Eventually found one at an ewaste recycler and offered them $5 for it. They called my lowball, said it's clicky and they can get at least $25 for it. I said okay.

>>56502240
the build quality is actually worse then the DAS 3, also why do you need a lazer etched sticker on the back

>>56502240
i've only heard bad things about das keyboard since a few years back

>>56502322
>and a laser-engraved aluminium bottom label… all which make the design feel more bad ass and the typing feel more responsive.

They sell double-shot PBT caps for LED back lighting, or if you want you can get dye-sub PBT caps which is what I perfer.
If you don't want to buy a keyboard then buy another set of caps then get this
https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1677

>>56502690
The strongest selling points of the pok3r in comparison to other 60% keyboards is the metal case and the PBT keycaps. The problem is that they cheaped out on both of those in order to keep the price tag low. The paint on the case chips easily, and the legends on the keycaps will fade with use, also quite quickly. So you'll end up getting aftermarket keycaps anyway (or having ugly keycaps) and maybe replacing the case. You could just get a cheaper 60% instead and get some nice dyesubbed PBT keycaps right from the start. And maybe an aftermarket case if you're not satisfied with the stock one.

60% keyboards, or if you want even smaller you can go down to 40-35% keyboards

To answer your question the LEDs are bright enough that even if you put solid keycaps you can still see them.

>>56502949
it depends

i assume your mean the LEDs on a pk4r? yes?
thanks you

>>56503117
LEDs on any cherry switch are bright enough for use. The keyboard has nothing to do with the brightness, unless the LEDs are on the PCB

Also in this boat and comfy as can be. It's the perfect actuation for the Fn rape that comes with 60%

What games would I run into where double tapping is a problem, because I'm finally getting myself a mechanical keyboard but I can't figure out between blue, brown, black, and red since tactile is bad for gaming supposedly even though I thought it was suppose to be good since you know when to release your finger from the key?

So I got an old Blue Alps keyboard and I sort of want to desolder all the switches from the board and put them in an AEK case. How feasible is this project?
Also if I go through with it I may try to switch out the keycaps for something that makes since for a non mac computer, but I don't know if the AEK uses a layout that's compatable with most keycaps.

>>56503679
well if you play games were you have to press a single key repeatably in quick secession , but in precise intervals it might be a problem.

>>56485702
I have blues at home and browns at work. The blue is more fun, but the brown will still do you well. And you might want to check out the clear if the brown isn't tactile enough for you.

>>56504279
So I shouldn't have a problem with blues as long as I'm not double tapping every three seconds?

>>56504363
Unless an accidental double tap causes you to instantly lose or if you have baby fingers then it shouldn't be a problem.

Dear /mkg/,

What are the best PBT keycaps to use with KBT switches?

>>56504401
these if you are on a budget
http://www.ebay.com/itm/PBT-104-Keys-Vintage-Style-Keycaps-for-Cherry-MX-swith-with-Red-ESC-/222236364324?hash=item33be51ce24
If you have more money to spare then Miami is a good choice

>>56504471
that product appears to be for MX switches specifically

>>56504522
KBT switches are cherry clones they use the same stem. Did you even look at them?

>>56504547
i didn't know they are clones and used the same keycaps. that's why i asked which to use. no i didn't look at them, i haven't ordered my keyboard yet.

thanks for the info and go fuck yourself faggot

>>56504143
It's doable. The PCB needs to support alps switches and you have to be careful during keycap removal since the tabs retaining the slider are more fragile on old complicated alps. Finding alps caps is kind of a bitch, too.
