Title: Hi!, New to the keyboard community. Need help with some explanation.
Post by: kupatroopa on Tue, 10 March 2020, 17:15:47
I've recently got into keyboards and I'm planning to build my own custom one with the 60% TOFU acrylic frosted case, in the description it says compatible with dz60, gh60, and poker. could someone please explain what the diff is and what they are and will the gk61s fit in this case.

Im from Australia, Melbourne btw for those curious.

Here's the link for the gk61s pcb that I'm going to use for the build. will this fit in the case or not?

Different PCBs usually have different compatibilities for different layouts, as well as different types of connectors. For example GH60 has a mini connector, whereas DZ60 in the new revisions have USB-C.
