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
or maybe the newer motospeed
I know they have a low profile kalih board
hexgears that is
the ck550 looks pretty nice. so do some of the hexgears, and both have amazon ones which would be cool, not that im against waiting 18 years for shipment. the GMMK modular one looks cool too, even though ive never fucked with non prefabs. I can always find after market caps somewhere
gotta get my cliche faux lenovo colorway
Imma cut short, if you want a quality keyboard with cherry switches look for a Leopold FC900R. They even come with non shitty PBTs
lmfao amazon has an amazonbasics mech keeb.
but i do really appreciate all the info, im gonna take some time to look into these
Watch some reviews about it, it's downright trash
