>>57987642
HHKB is the best choice

>>57987699
Aren't razer keyboards already green. Why do you need more green?

>>57987788
.

>>57987749
different category, so a lot different.
red is linear and blue is clicky + tactile.
both are too light and not as satisfying as the heavier cherry switches, like the mx black (heavier red) and mx green (heavier blue)

High profile or Sculpted.
You can get SA profile, which is somewhat similar right now on massdrop

>>57989765
>Sculpted
what

>>57989867
aka each row has a different shape; not uniform like DSA.

>>57990036
but high profile isn't always sculpted either?

>>57990261
When would it not be?

>>57990261
The only exception I can think of are the all row 3 SA group buys.

>>57990346
or the PBT sets on their website, which are all in row three

>>57990304
>>57990346
even if it's the only "exception", sculpted only describes high profile. it's not exclusive to it.

>>57990415
High profile just means the keycaps are tall. Nowadays you'd have to specify if the caps are uniform & 0 degree tilt to the top of the cap (SA row 3) or sculpted.

>>57986241
What keycaps are those? They look comfy

>>57990462
but that's not what you said

>>57990625

I have a backlit keyboard that I need to dampen the sound of, which o rings should I get?

>>57991686
Just get the ID/OD measurements off wasd, then buy some 40A durometer rings off imsto, ebay, or something. Should only be a few bucks for ~100 of them, not 15 or however much wasd is charging.

>>57984885
If I ever get around to making a custom keyboard, I'm gonna have it with LEDs like this.

>>57991686
You should buy the Razer Mechanical Keyboard Enhancement Kit.

About to pull the trigger on my first Mechanical Keyboard.

Been looking at the POK3R in White, with backlighting and Blue switches. Would be $120 with 2-7 shipping

Realized there is also the RGB ones on Amazon for $140 and I would get Prime shipping that way..

What do you guys think?

>>57993434
blue switches are for queers
if the $120 keyboard doesn't have RGB lighting and you're that into it, just pay the extra $20 and get 2 day shipping

Will I be called a retard if I post a pic of my Razer keyboard?

>>57993474
I don't think I really care about RGB lighting at all, but for only $20 more it I figure it might be worth it in case I change my mind I guess.

It seems just really gimmicky and pointless, but maybe it would be fun to play around with

>>57993554
>It seems just really gimmicky and pointless, but maybe it would be fun to play around with
This is 100% on the money.
Do you care enough about 2-day shipping to pay an extra $20?

>>57993497
no, you fucking retard, it already happens before that.

>>57993434
don't get blues, blues are a meme. get clears.

>>57993474
>blue switches are for queers
>>57993607
>don't get blues, blues are a meme. get clears.
Blues seemed like a good middle ground for me. I want it clicky and I don't need it to be silent, but I don't want it to be the loudest either.

What's the Meme?

Maybe I'll need to just order a switch tester and try them all out myself, but I was really hoping to just get a keyboard ordered tonight

>>57993644
Get something with easily swappable switches and you're good even if you fuck up tonight

Listen to videos of tactile nonclicky switches and see if that's noisy enough for you

>>57991196
fuck you

>Budget: 150
>Location: USA
>Preferred switch type: Browns but would settle for blues
>Layout: any, would like a numpad but if not I can live
>Form factor: any
>Backlight: rgb per key, pretty strong on this
>Previous/current keyboards: corsair k65 rgb red, I hate typing on it and the bottom row is impossible to find replacements

>>57993750
I actually would go for clears too.

>>57993788
If I don't really care about the noise though, is there any real reason to choose Clears over Blue?

Not that guy, but I'm curious why Clear are recommended so much

>>57993644
blues are the loudest switches you can get. clears are in the middle and they're good starter switches because they're not too tactile.

>ITT: wrong opinions stated as facts

>>57993826
>not too tactile
>literally the most tactile switch Cherry offers

>>57993856

>>57993870
Name a more tactile Cherry switch then

>>57993874
The only thing wrong on that is the Cherry white. Vintage Cherry whites are as soft as blues, modern whites are as hard as greens.

I heard everyone say that they can't type for long periods of time with black switches because they are very heavy

>>57993885
greens? you're fucking retarded my dude

>>57993910
We are all gay sissies with girly hands here

>>57993910
Blacks only require 60g to actuate, they're lighter than clears, greens, modern whites and greys but heavier than everything else.

>>57993923
I actually have a chinkboard arrive this week with black chinkswitches, though reviewers say they are lighter than Cherry's blacks

>>57993910
If you bottom them out every time then yes, it would be 80g press each key. (same as mx green actuation)
I personally dont press my blacks all the way down to 4mm, just until the actuation point.
They are pretty comfy switches, especially for gaymen.

>>57987699
nah. not worth desoldering a full size board.

>>57984820
Want a mechanical keyboard very similar to my Lenovo Enhanced Performance keyboard. Which would be the best one?

I don't need nor necessarily want any shitty gaymer gimmicks like backlights.

Gateron's linears and tactiles are just as good as or better than their Cherry counterparts. Gateron's clicky switches are inconsistent due to lower quality control.

Oh I see the what you're butthurt about. You consider being called underage as an insult. I assure you that you're not the only underage person on 4chan, anon.

>>57995765

you think a fucking keyboard meme edit is a piece of art trying to convey a period in history

i guess i should be glad you think so highly of my work

>>57995775
Art can be anything. You obviously put some time into it. Vaprowave stuff generally is based around the 80s/90s aesthetic.


Not sure how something being deemed art or not puts value to it. Are you autistic or something?

>>57995765
I'm not even the one who posted the vaporware shit. Also, you seemed to imply using underage as an insult, or at the very least, a classifier of someone who doesn't know how to do shit.

>underage retard
>oh no, I did not mean as an insult!! :^)

>>57995839
Yes I pointed out that the person's ignorance of the 80s/90s aesthetic that vaporware goes for points to him being underage.

Does this offend you?

>>57995158
An adapter will reroute the connections/pins for PS/2 to USB, but that is not enough.
In order for a keyboard to work, you need an active converter, not an adapter. they look similar but are more expensive.

>>57995891
So, PS2 is effectively discarded

what's the ballpark price if I built a small MKG myself?
the cost of all the switches and keycaps. nothing fancy like LEDs or special features.
I can make the frame myself and do the soldering so that won't cost anything but I'm really lost here

>>57995856
I rarely get offended on this burmese cheese churning chat, I just find funny how you try to save face by saying you didn't mean to offend/insult.

lul why is vaporwave so polarizing

>>57995947
because some people like to feel superior when they cling on to depth and meaning and shun those who give special attention to aesthetics.

>>57995928
Have you never been critiqued before? A critique isn't a safe place hug. I know words like critique have gone over a definition change in the last decade but cmon.

I think your generation would call this kind of overreaction "being triggered".

>>57995527
How do you type number like 123 or those signs like #$@ associated to em with those size keyboard?

>>57995970
It's hardly "special attention" when you're just copying the latest fad

>>57996006
If someone likes the aesthetic of the 80's/90's technology uprising and wants to build on it and surround himself by it, I don't see what the problem is. Being a chronic hipster is worse than people who adhere to "fads". Don't get me wrong, I don't jump on the latest fashion statement unless it is in good taste and captivates my personal interest.

>>57995988
Maybe throw some more dank memes and personal attacks at me. It really helps counter my underage claim you know.

Clearly you can't handle a critique.

because paying an additional 40% make so much sense right?

You wont go lower than 60$.

At this point you're better buying a magicforce for the price and scrape it

How does modern MX Whites feel when compared to Browns on a keyboard? MX White feels nicer on a tester compared to browns.

>>57997642
greens are the better clicky switch, but you are right in that browns are underwhelming in the tactility department

>>57997642
Whites are inconsistent. In theory a softer sounding clicky switch is nice, but that's not what happens. Some are just as clicky sounding as blues/greens, some softer, some have the click killed altogether.

Get aristotles and put them in gateron/MX housings.

Hi, friends. This story shows that you should never lend people anything ever.

I had a Corsair K70 RGB and a CM Storm Trigger (Trigger was spare, since I got the K80 as a gift.)
A friend asked to loan my Trigger, and me being a retard, gave it to him for a while. He recently brought it back to me, filthy, sticky and with dust in-between all the keys.

Now i'm stuck with a K70 that's slowly dying, and a gross fucking Trigger that I need to get dry cleaned or something. fml.

What does a $150 keyboard offer that a $75 qfr doesn't?

Can't you just switch the keys around and then use software to change it. The downside is that you have to set up the software for every new computer you use, but I doubt that you move that keyboard around a lot

>>57998640
Didn't even think of that, would prefer to have them be more like a normal set of arrow keys and not so high up

I'm thinking about getting another mechanical keyboard. I currently have a k70 with browns, and 2 mechanical keyboards from the 80s. I'm thinking about getting the Masterkeys pro s with blues, will I regret going tkl? I haven't even used a keyboard without it and I feel like ill miss the numpad. Also is it a good keyboard?

>>58004174
What is your opinion on the k70 w/browns?

I like it quite a bit, had it for 2 years and would like a clickier switch. Also spilled coke on it and got it all sticky and have been to lazy to clean it.

>>58004256
Thanks anon, seems pretty good for the price and as a first mechanical keyboard.

I think I need to get a new keyboard. My V60 keeps double/triple stroking and I don't think I can do anything to fix it.

>>58004372
Same happens to my Quickfire TK.

Sometimes it doesn't register the keypress, other times it double strokes. It's always either E or X.

>>58004426
Like I probably wouldn't notice it if it was uncommon. But it feels like every other F keypress causes my keyboard to double stroke.
