I recently got a Corsair K90, and I'm pretty happy; no issues that other users have been having, and am loving the dedicated media buttons. I got used to the non-mechanical keys as well.

I found this beauty out though. If it ever comes out, I'm thinking about getting it. Unless anyone else has a suggestion for a backlit KB with a white shell o.O


Thats a great keyboard to get. Good CM quality.

That thing has been out of stock for two months. I originally wanted it, but went with the MX blue version instead since it was on sale. Can't say I regret it

I read somewhere from a rep that they plan on having the Browns available this month, but don't take my word for it. Supply isn't as great atm.

Found an image of the white TK version (as opposed to the Quickfire XT above/last page): + Show Spoiler +

This looks pretty neat too: + Show Spoiler +

Looks good! Hope they do indeed plan to release it.

Can someone also explain to me how the clear and green Cherry MX switches feel?

They are heavy versions of brown and blue. They use a spring similar to black switches as opposed to the soft spring from red, brown and blue. The clear's bump for the tactile feel is a little more pronounced than for brown. The clear is sold in Cherry's own keyboards for the tactile feel version (they don't use brown), and the green switch is used for the space bar on Cherry's own blue switch keyboards.

I just got a noppo choc mini with cherry red mx switches. I already love it more than my previous blue switch. Best keyboard I've had.

Does anyone have experience replacing keys on a DAS model Ultimate MX Blue?

WASD: http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/keycap-compatibility
claims their product matches the DAS dimensions. Any thoughts on how easy it is to remove the keys, and how well the new ones fit?
Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but no one knows why. In our lab, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and no one knows why.

This is a pretty good guide

Its easy as long as you are careful, WASD should fit fine.

To each his own. Some people say blues are worthless. This guy just thinks reds and blacks suck. Doesn't mean it's true for everyone.

Anyone knows what these are worth (not that I would ever spend that much money on a kb but I find the idea somewhat interesting from a stylish pov)?

Just wondering if anybody has an opinion on this keyboard. CM This will be my 1st mechanical keyboard, and I've been looking for one with brown that doesn't break the bank.
I'm a gooner.
