/mkg/ - Mechanical Keyboard General

Should I buy a MagicForce 82 for $60, or is there something else you guys can recommend.

>>60949384
Sure go ahead

>>60949384
If you want a cheap keyboard that's about as good you can get for athat price

>full-size wasd v2 + gateron keycaps
I have this exact combination. (the keycaps are dye-subbed, but originally gateron)
keycap choice is solid. I am not sure why you cannot buy two-tones like white and grey, though. I thought that used to be an option.
if you don't need numpad, consider tenkeyless.
are you getting cherry greens or clears? if not, you can consider a cheaper board like the rosewill rk9000.
the keyboard is still nice but flexes due to being full-size. I would imagine the TKL version does not flex as much.
overall it's decent.

>>60950089
also pic related. it has cherry clears

What's the cheapest keyboard I can get that comes with Cherry Whites? 60-65% preferred.

>>60950345
Magicforce68, but only the custom ones

>>60950089
>consider tenkeyless
Yeah, I've decided to go with tenkeyless, since I don't use the numpad and it'll only make my mouse needlessly far away.
>are you getting cherry greens or clears?
I was gonna get either blue or browns.
wasd tenkeyless board is $95 with cherry blue by default, they ask for $15 more for clears and $25 for greens.
I don't know if they're worth the extra money.
I can't seem to find a rosewill tenkeyless board, do you know of any other cheaper tenkeyless barebones boards?

>>60950463
depending on country, you can find them on amazon.

>>60950559
not in cherry whites

how is this achieved

>>60950644
I remember when that was the queen of cheap mechanical keyboards. So much has changed since then. Its done with pad printing

>>60950686
are you telling me there's no way to get a printed animu on a keyboard?

>>60950542
unfortunately there is no TKL equivalent of the rosewill rk9000. cooler master's old TKL boards are pretty decent, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to find them in stock anywhere.

I've heard good things about these, but haven't personally used them. browns, unfortunately, out of stock for the ducky and only 1 in stock for the ganss.

the wasd v2 is not bad especially if you're not getting full-size since it won't flex as much. pic related is personally my biggest gripe with it. I don't like how those sides poke out as it looks ugly and unncessary. also the cable routing feature is terrible.

>>60950838
I'd consider getting one of those, but I want blank keycaps (preferably colored as in pic related),
>I don't like how those sides poke out as it looks ugly and unncessary
Looks kinda nice imo.
I found this blank ducky https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=188
but I don't like the white keycaps and the lights on the caps lock and scroll lock.
It's one $135 and since the wasd board is $95, while the gateron keycaps in pic related are $40, it's not like I'd be saving some money by buying it.
I don't see any other options than a wasd tkl board and those gateron blank keycaps for now.

>>60951009
I just noticed that the blank ducky is out of stock.
Oh well.

>>60951009
oh sorry, I wasn't clear. I linked those keyboards for you to consider buying in addition to the blank gateron keycaps.
because I think they look a bit nicer.
mechanicalkeyboards also seems to offer free shipping, too.

Is it possible to get a custom keyboard from somewhere that only has 8 keys and arrows? For fighting games, like a little mini-controller

>>60952190
Make it yourself, there's no pre-made board like that. Closest you can get is some people in China make a custom numpad with more layout options including ones optimised for using it sideways as a 6*4 gamepad

I bought a mechanical keyboard but now I can't find it

>>60950748
Both WASD and Maxkeyboards offer custom printing options, I forget which of the two but that keyset was printed through one of them (It's in their customer gallery)

ANy good sales going on?

Is there a DIY controller that supports wiring individual keys on it?
I don't want a matrix. I want infine kro.

ducky one tkl or kbparadise v60? Only options I could find with cherry whites that I can afford.

>>60953047
If you can wait about a month the magicforce should come back on massdrop, and that will have cherry whites. But right now go with the Ducky

Ducky one tkl is bretty good. Get the non RGB one and buy some PBT caps for it.

>>60954454
Was gonna get one but
>Estimated ship date is Sep 4, 2017
So I purchased a 40% pcb on ali and am gonna build one myself.

>>60950748
dye subbers are starting to do prints on the whole key and not just the legends, mainly so they can get white legends on pbt but they can do graphics too. this would be much higher quality than pad printing. but you would probably have to pay an arm and a leg to get them to make a custom anime set for you

Does the James Donkey 619 have smaller keycaps like the Magicforce? I'm considering a Gateron Brown Donkey but the tiny chinaman keys on the Magicforce I bought was bad enough for me to return it.

>>60955182
the keycaps are standard size you idiot. even if you're using a laptop keyboard with wide and flat keys, the overall keyboard is still pretty small, so i don't see where you get the idea that the keys are tiny.

but seriously, how does one go about purchasing this kind of stuff, I've never done that before
I checked on ebay and there were like 3 of them but none of them has this gorgeous dust cover which is the selling point for me
are there any other models similar to this?

What are good places to search for ISO keycap sets that ship to Europe? I'm looking into building a 65% kind of thing with some extra keys, but I can't find sets that are compatible with ISO and 65% and have some extra keys and aren't coloured like a fucking rainbow or something.

>>60957022
not really and you're moving your pinky too much to reach for the short left shift

>>60956994
Also, almost not sets have a € sign on the 5 key, which I would prefer.
>>60957048
>not really
Just fucking bullshit. I use it all the time.

>and you're moving your pinky too much to reach for the short left shift
I disagree. But if you think so than you could just bind \ to shift and shift to \. ISO's still better then.

I didn't think ISO could get worse but you went and proved me wrong

Has anybody built a keyboard that's optimised for typing speed?

>>60957929

>>60957992
Yeah, no
I was thinking about smaller keykaps. Apparently no such thing exists. So you guys are really just playing around with LED lights and not actually building keyboards?

>>60958031
>smaller keykaps
they're already tiny chinaman keycaps. you can't get them much smaller than this without running into serious accuracy and ergonomics issues.

>>60958062
How about just a little bit smaller?

>>60958081
no

>>60958081
Standard keycaps are already smaller then your fingertips, unless you're 10 years old or a manlet

>mechanical keyboards are supposed to have better build quality and be more durable
>cheap chinese plastic
>exposed switches
>flimsy microSD connections

Okay so who makes ACTUAL nice keyboards that have solid build quality? I know you guys love the cheap chinkshit, but tell me what the premium is.

Qisan 60% with Gateron Brown (black)

>>60958576
are you sure they're cherry and not outemu

but anyway maybe the 40 euro qisan + thick pbt chink keycaps

>>60959106

>Anything worse than gateron is not worth your time.
not if you have to give up good keycaps to fit your budget

Manufacturers can fuck up on so many levels you would not believe
1.Keyboard does not even get recognized in usb slot
2.Software support is trash
3.Keyboard will melt after few days

I could keep going

Also cherry is really good but once you go gateron browns you never go back to cherry.

>>60959197
>3.Keyboard will melt after few days
Maybe that wouldn't happen if they STOPPED SHOVING ALL THESE FAGGOT ASS LEDS AND MICROPROCESSORS IN FUCKING EVERYTHING.

>>60959176
104 gateron board is 45$
tenkeyless is 35$

If you care only about switch and PBT keycaps
gateron+decent pbt set=> 45$

>>60959215
Never seen a keyboard with a microprocessor

>>60959232
If it has fancy retarded LEDs then it most likely has some kind of ARM processor in it to control the LEDs so you can switch between your SICK FLASHING PATTERNS.

>>60959251
I never quite understood the whole RGB meme
to not have leds in kb is fine,if you need to see the letters in dark you just need to learn how to type,anyone who does type more than month can remember where each letter is.

hi /mkg/

I'm currently looking at various mechanical keyboards and I'd like to vent a bit.

Ducky, Collermaster, Gigabyte and Logitech all have the retarded right bottom row layout of [ALT] [Windows key] [FN] [Ctrl]. As a GNU/Linux user I use the Menu key to get the context menu all the time and I've never once used that windows key, it doesn't even do anything. I'd be fine with [ALT] [FN] [MENU][CTRL] but no, none of those brands make a keyboard that's not missing a rather important key.

And all Corsair keyboards have a retarded layout on the entire bottom row.

It's really annoying that there's basically no good mechanical keyboard for sale anywhere.

>>60959350
>no on-board memory
Yes, unless you like the LED wave everytime you startup your PC. Also unusual bottom row.

>>60959737
this is programmable so you can change the layout however you want

Then you need a numpad.

Brown switches are still loud enough to make coworkers notice you got a new keyboard but not enough to make them contact HR.

I'm thinking about grabbing the HyperX Alloy with blue switches or Ozone Strike Pro also blue switches.

The only mechanical keyboard I have is Corsair Strafe with brown switches(pic related) and It's fucking horrible.
I dunno if this is the fault of Corsair, the brown switches or my oversensitive ears but there's this weird "ping" noise as if you were hitting something metal with a nail or something when clicking some keys. Already shipped it back and the new one has the same issue but different keys are affected.
I'm going full typewriter so that even if the new one is fucked like that then at least I won't be able to hear it amidst the clicking.

Any alternatives to those two that are under $100, blue, full, backlit and possible to get in Poland?

Buying suggestion
10 keyless white (was thinking poker 3) and good quality pink keycaps. Amy suggestions I cant find too many sites that sell keycaps. No budget

>>60956702
Ducky One, or maybe a Corsair Strafe if you don't mind the edgy gaaayyyymer aesthetic.

Opinion on the board /g/. Goes on group buy as a kit today or tomorrow for a week.

Help me /mkg/ you're my only hope. Seriously I'm ordering something to ship out tomorrow. Please help me make a good decision I won't regret. I've had my current keyboard for 8 years.

>>60964535
It's a kit so I assume the plate would allow for a 2u backspace

>>60964389
Probably worst board around,30$ chink shit looks better
Cable:Does not match the board
Keycaps,do not match cable or board
Screws are not in exact distance from each other
F1-F10 keys at worst possible place.
They better be in num-pad region or standard top or even better:no f+ keys just shortcut for them.


I rate 2/10 just because I like the base color,could be cute with colorful pbt keycaps and pink braided cable.

>>60964554
i dont think so. it has space for 1 switches so you couldnt fit it in simmetrically

There's tons of open source (including open hardware) keyboards, if that's your fetish then build one. It's not that hard - you'll need to put in some effort but pretty much anyone can do it. Plus you'll get to choose exactly the features and layouts you want - complete freedom to craft your perfect keyboard.

Only downside is it probably costs a bit more.

Okay so I've pretty much narrowed down my search to pic related. Cherry Red switches, 100% ANSI and yes I use NumPad plenty, Double Shot PBT. I don't actually care for backlighting but it is included anyway.

My budget is $125, any other keyboards worth it more so than this one?

>>60966418
It's the best you can get for that budget, but are you sure you want reds?

>>60966456
I'm not. I keep bouncing back between Red, Brown or Clear. I do plenty of work/typing on it, but I want it to feel the best for gaming. Mainly play Overwatch and MMOs.

>>60966495
Cherry browns are pretty terrible, I'd suggest cherry clears or gateron browns. Reds are really bad for typing.

I want to get something like the Magicforce but in Iso layout (not eng...). What are my options ? I'm willing to hand-wire but I still need plate/case.

>>60966394

>rubberdome

I guess you could call Topre that if you were grossly undereducated.

>>60966653
Are arrow keys a must ? I'd recommend making your own 60% with gh60 pcb, that is if you can go 60%.

>>60966664
It literally uses a dome made of rubber.

>>60966592
It's probably been more than a decade since I've owned a mechanical keyboard. I've typed on some since then, but I don't really remember them well... how do cherry blacks compare to clear? more force required?

>>60966773
less force and no tactile feedback.

>>60966792
I was under the impression that blacks required more force than clears. Black is 60g and clear is 55g isn't it?

>>60966810
no. use google moron

>>60966683

What's the pcb for ? Unless I want backlit, a controler is way cheaper.

>>60966857
What? For building the keyboard lol?

>>60966857
For mounting stabilisers and holding your switches in place, because you're not going to find a dedicated ISO plate without getting it made custom

What´s the point of ortholinear keyboards?
I want to fall in the meme of planck keyboard, but also I want a Model M.
What meme is best?
How much should I spend in any of these memes?

Are silver switches more similar to black or red switches?

>>60967120

Oh I see, I thought "universal" plates would take care of the stabilisers. I also thought stabilisers were mounted on the plate.

>>60967317
They can be, but plates cut for plate-mount stabilisers are not really commercially available. And universal plate just means it supports ANSI or ISO, so in other words the enter area has a big backwards L-shaped cutout.

>>60967252
Blacks

>>60965968
wait wait wait. do people actually use these for typing japanese? even in japan i thought romaji input was almost universal?

The reason there's so many is because the drop time was increased by a few weeks. If Canvas was extended I'm sure it would sell the same or more.

Its a ZZ96, which is a Korean custom just like the RS96, AMJ96, KIRA96, Wellfare96, and Lightsaver. There was a small run for it about three months ago, and it would set you back $350+ not including switches and keycaps.The main differences between all those is the design of the case, and the PCB

>>60969005
thanks man

>>60968865
is there anyone who manufactures those type of caps?
i really love the old style look to them

>>60968056
I got the two-tone blue/grey keycaps since it looks professional and fun.

While Red switches aren't ideal for beginners, you'll get used to it. After a while you'll soon learn to press keys halfway instead of bottoming out like membranes.

>>60969028
See
>>60968076
Those keycaps are SA Jukebox and are made by SP, but they have a history of issues with their SA profile keycaps. They did sell their old tooling to MAXkey who now also make SA profile keycaps but they also have problems too so they sell them in limited quantities.

has there been any other 68 form factor other than tada, Magicforce, and the varmillo? I really like the 68 form factor(specifically the magicforce/varmillo ones), and currently have a magicforce myself, but i would like to move onto a better one, with like options for cherry clears if possible

>>60969055
whats the problem with SA keys?

>>60969066
Magicforce sell some of their keyboards with cherry clears, but its a massdrop exclusive

i dont like the tactile bump in cherry browns, it just feels like an extra hard scratch among the rest of the scratchyness, do gateron browns feel any different?

>>60969086
Quality control issues.

>>60969101
Larger bump and smoother stem. Gaterons in general are a small upgrade over Cherry, except Blues.

>>60969098
yup, been waiting for another one as i missed the last one from a couple months ago, but i think it was a tkl and not a 68? or at least the styling was similar to tada where everything squished in.

>>60969101
while i;ve only tried cherry browns in bestbuy, i can say that my gat browns dont have any scratchiness to it and just go downs smooth.

>>60969110
like blatantly obvious Quality issues?

>>60969163
Yeah. Like deformed keycaps, legends not injected properly, misaligned stems, broken parts, etc. Don't worry though since the most common issue is off center stems and they send replacements

Are you guys aware that there is media control keys on Pok3r keyboard? I just recently discovered these and since there is no mention of them anywhere I'd say about it here.

fn + D = Volume up
fn + S = Volume Down
fn + F = Mute

And the next ones only seem to work in Windows.
fn + q = either pause, next track or previous track
fn + w =either pause, next track or previous track
fn + e =either pause, next track or previous track

Finding these were pleasant.

>>60972455
It is standard,it is probably why ppl do not mention it.
Even 35$ james donkey has them.

I wonder how many ppl use media keys anyway,my keyboard has 15 dedicated media keys and I never clicked one.

Probs a dumb question, but does anyone have any idea on how well these topre to cherry mx adapters work? Or do you instinctually feel like they'd be garbage. Never used a torpe board before, so unsure how they'd even fit in.

the price isn't too unreasonable but since you're new i wouldn't recommend it. the keycaps are thick and double shot but they're ABS so the texture will wear down after a while of using them. thick PBT keycaps are generally preferred. at this price point you can get almost any keyboard so you can look at e.g. TADA68 and KBD75 if you want premium quality just not with the hhkb layout.

add o rings,make custom frame etc.

There is not hand comfort or speed difference between decent 5$ membrane and 200$ mechanical

I do less typos with mechanical brown switches than membrane tho,I m often unsure if i've clicked something already on my membrane

>>60975370

I reccomend you to order 50$ gateron full board like james donkey

If you love it,buy something better later.

Do not get memed in to 150$ tier 60% keyboard or you might really regret it.

Holy fuck, did Filco's go up in value or am I crazy? Does $200 sound right for a full 104 key Filco Majestouch-2 with cherry browns? Other than the WASD being a little worn, it's in perfect condition. What could I sell it for?

so i got a saber 68 and it only has 6 key rollover for some fucking reason
why is this, and what are the odds it's going to get in the way of video games?

Filco was bought by the chinks and are no longer made in Japan. You can see that new TKLs are still 180 bucks even though they are made by the chinks now

If yours was made in Japan then it still held its value.

>>60975824
Most rubber domes are 2kro and people have no problem with those. Modifiers don't count towards the limit, and certain matrix designs allow you to press more then two keys at once. What OS are you using?

>>60975992
How much we talking? How do I verify it's a Japanese board? I was going to sell it for $150.

>>60976017
Look at the sticker on the back

>>60976017
Damn, it's made in Taiwan. So does $150 sound right for the full board with browns? Unicomp is only $90 so I get spending money either way.

>>60975992
That one has bluetooth. A normal filco TKL is 40 bucks cheaper

>>60976083
At that price I'd just buy a new one with free shipping.

does it change anything?

>>60976112
Oh well, I figured the eBay auctions were a little inflated. All I need is $90 so not a big deal, I'll just take what I can get.

Before I sell my keyboard, what does everyone think of the Unicomps? I

>>60976121
Some OS like linux and mac have problems with nkro so they default to 6kro. The tada does have nkro so maybe you turned it off. To turn it back on press left shift, right shift, and N all at the same time

>>60976175
I'd say this is a good review.

Its a bit old since unicomp now does custom keycaps

>>60976176
ah shit, thank you

is there a list somewhere of other firmware key combinations?

>>60976223
Reddit has them

If you had tried the links in the OP or Unicomp's website, you'd be able to find a Unicomp for under $100 and a Filco for around $150. I'm not going to spoonfeed you.

>>60975992
>Filco was bought by the chinks and are no longer made in Japan.
I have a Filco that I bought at least as early as 2011 and it says "Made in Taiwan" on the back. When were they made in Japan?

>>60976175
I have one with the trackpoint because it's a nice way to control my media center (computer connected to big screen TV, played on MPC-HC, both hotkeys and mouse use are required) without having two pieces of equipment on my couch. The trackpoint is pretty slow and hard to use precisely and it also gets in the way of my mediocre technique when actually using the keyboard to type. For typing, the key presses are a little heavy. I might be able to get used to it, but in the long run, I think I wouldn't like to type on one. I prefer my lighter Cherry Browns with their much less springy tactical bump, even though they bottom out constantly.

>>60949299
What type of switch do you guys recommend for a first time keyboard?
Light typing and gaming will be going on. I'm thinking browns.

>>60976401
Logitech K120

>>60976401
Gateron browns. Clears are an option too, though they're a bitch to find at reasonable prices due to rarity.

Personally I said fuck it and went with blues. Still not delivered, I'll report back on how it handles games once I actually get it.

>>60976401
I think browns yeah. They seem like the most allround option to me. Blues are slightly less suited for gaming because of the difference in actuation and deactuation point. And red/blacks just seem stupid to me.

>>60976473
>>60976495
I loved the blues. They feel great but I just can see myself getting over them for home use. If I get my own office soon I'll pick one up with blues and clack all day at work

can someone recommend me a keycap set that has the smaller shift I need for a choc mini? or should I just special order the unusual keys?

the carbon custom set on massdrop look real nice but to get the right keys to completely change them all I would have to spend like $100+

I just want to try something other than plan old black, and I think beige with some grey or colored modifier keys would look nice.

>>60976401
MX blues. They're around the same weight as a rubberdome, while having more tactile feedback.

>>60976544
Get DSA carbon on aliexpress instead. Its still expensive, but you get a lot more keys compared to SA carbon

How are 60% for gaming?

>>60976176
>To turn it back on press left shift, right shift, and N all at the same time
not that it really matters (assuming it doesn't cause a delay) but that's a pretty dumb combination, could probably press it by accident when typing normally

>>60976578
how often do you use your function keys or your numpad when gaming?

>>60976142
make it an auction (not buy it now), keyboard autists will probably eat it up if you clean it and take good pics, filcos used to be super popular until they got bought by the chinks

>>60976625
when are you ever going to press both shift keys at the same time?

>>60976691
if you can touch type properly you'll use both shift keys and when typing fast you might leave both shift keys down simultaneously. when are you ever going to see non-retarded software that has a key combination like that by default?

>>60976625
>could probably press it by accident when typing normally
When?

>>60976772
when not being retarded

>only using the left shift
sure is summer

hmmmm

>>60976778
In what non-retarded situation have you ever held both shift keys when trying to type a capital N?

>>60976843
i'm speculating that a reasonable person might do it by accident when typing e.g. CNN, NYC, NV quickly enough. of course, you wouldn't notice that you pressed because it wouldn't make any difference unless your software is all retarded, and i'm not claiming that it would be a frequent occurrence.

>>60976930
also you might make a typo when pressing a different key combination such as ctrl+shift+n

>>60976930
What is the basis for your "speculation"? When have you ever seen people mash BOTH shift keys at once while typing, aside from some autist who doesn't know how to type?

>>60976715
man i just realized i only ever use the left shit, i just adjust my entire left hand for left hand keys

still type at around 105 wpm, wonder how much faster i could actually get if i did it properly

>>60976962
What kind of idiot holds the Ctrl and Shift on opposite ends of the keyboard for this kind of thing?

>>60976968
i guess the idea is

right shift+C
then very quickly after, left shift+N

if you do this very fast you might hit the N before releasing the right shift

but most people don't use the right shift key i'm pretty sure

>>60976968
>>60976987
lmfao sure is summer, why should i even spend any time and energy trying to convince you, you're such a sperglord that you would do it the wrong way just to avoid dealing with your cognitive dissonance, enjoy typing with piss poor ergonomics

>>60977008
>right shift+C
>then very quickly after, left shift+N
This is a good example of someone who doesn't know how to type.

>>60977016
*I* use the right shift key when typing, broski. That doesn't mean that I switch which shift key I'm using when typing multiple capital letters. You can just keep holding the key down for more than one letter

>>60977080
try typing NA retard

protip: you're doing it wrong

>>60977080
>>60977110
when i type NA I'll use the left shift for both, i'll just slide my left ring finger to the A key

i'm pretty sure most do this but it's not the "proper" way

>>60976571
thanks but

>$160 at least

nah, I'll just buy something else. I guess 75% is always going to be expensive to replace all the caps.

>>60977133
if you try leftshift+n followed by rightshift+a maybe you can see how it feels more "natural" compared to moving your left ring finger to the side, at least once you've gotten used to it

Right pinky holding right shift + right index types N, keep holding right shift + left ring finger types A. Wow. That was so hard.
