time for my trimonthly message to this discord: Does anyone know of any good fullsize chink mech keyboards? I bought the ANNE pro a while back but want a full size.

@StickyDonutHoles pretty much irrelevant, nothing too big, nothing too small. Budget somewhat around 500 eurobucks

thanks friendo.

@apool Unironically the redmi note 7

@Drunk Octopus how "good" are we talkin

mmm, isnt gonna break or stop working after a month, and doesnt feel like its made of trash

like I don't need top of the line spaceship grade aluminum with diamond infused braided cords, but like the cheaper version of corsairs

that's setting a low bar <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

sure is lmfao

but at least the chinkboard hopefully wont have proprietary bottom row keys

Build one yourself :^)

Jokes aside if you're not sure what you actually want, try a sample set, get an GMMK and put in there whatever you like

what kind of switvhes

THe cheaper chink boards will always have lower ends Gaterons/Kailhs and it'll likely never change

gmmk pricy, only really good if you get it for sub $80 with switches

I think that's roughly $65 with no caps or switches

What? We have 45Eurobucks sales on that thing in between

<:thenk:329322130804047872>

I got mine on black Friday for $75 with gat reds

preferably cherry reds. That's what I think my current anne pro has, and theyre pretty decent sans the coffee I've spilled on it. The Thermaltake Kalih Blue board I have from half a decade ago still works fine but I'd rather not earrape people over voice chat with my click

kalih box reds probably more up your alley

get gateron reds friend

benefits from the box shape and you're not jewing out for (the lack of) German innovation

Hm never actually heard of those (been a while since I've been in the keeb market) but they look decent

gateron red good too but the wobble bothers people

but its sooo smooth

are those strictly for byo or are there prefab keebs with them

So, reds it is. Price point?

there are prefabs but idk about fullsized prefabs

lets say that since corsairs can go for like 120 ish that's my rough budget. the CM masterkeys L has caught my eye but they dont seem to be available on amazon often

just get a ((premium)) western board for that money

I bought a cheap CM with gateron reds and its perfect

Gotta agree with win there

like ducky, Leopold, varmillo, etc

I mean if I can something similar for cheaper thats always nice

@Drunk Octopus James Donkey, dear friend

Epi, is the CK550 the one you got? thats the first result for CM gateron reds

yep

the caps are shitty ABS tho

uh maybe gmmk with some nice aftermarket caps, there are some not well known keebs but not at home rn

but standard rows so if it bothers you maybe you can buy caps for it later

like hexgears I think have some weird keyboards, I think they have a box red fullsized
