I'd jump on this if I didn't have a couple of these already.  My go-to gaming keyboard  ;D

These seem to be hard to find with any switch these days.

Been overtaken by the QFR-I and Novatouch.

In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

This one is the super-branded model.

Like the one I am using right now.

Very nice keyboard - I am tempted, but another QFR with MX blacks?  If it was clears, maybe ...

Yeah if I knew CM were going to stop producing ALL mx black keyboards I woulda grabbed a Mx black QFR off amazon for $68. Im a little annoyed they dont offer blacks at all anymore but I also dont care for their Filco style high profile case. The case seems especially tall near the top of the keyboard for some reason. Makes cherry profile keys seem dwarfed; the top of the cherry profile keycaps damn near even with the case on the top rows. (When the key is fully pressed down)

From the pictures ive seen on here Filco's are like that too. Its the thing I dislike most about my QFR.
