Vanilla out of the box CM Storm Quickfire w/ MX Reds. Have some lasered PBT keycaps coming from a post in the classifieds, and some o-rings from massdrop, and after that not sure what else I will need for a while. Love typing on this thing so far.

Thanks, I used both amber and red SMD LED's to go for a hot coals kind of look. the little bit of purple is from a UV LED that functions as the Capslock indicator

Jut a moment ago I received my V60 with Matias Quiet switches and I'm stunned with how good those switches feel and ashamed I haven't tried them before! They're absolutely gorgeous, I'd put them on pair with BS and Topre in terms of quality feel. Very tactile, very mechanical character, and really really quiet. The case is decent, but nothing spectacular, comparable to poker in terms of quality, but I have TEX aluminium case that I'll use for this keyboard when I have time to mod it. Keycaps are actually better than I expected. I thought they would be similar to standard Filco/QFR keycaps but no, they're more similar to standard keycaps that come with new G80 keyboards. Obviously that's much worse than standard Topre keycaps but they are pretty usable as they are
And for that price? As I said, I feel ashamed I haven't got it earlier

It's comments like these that make me want to try Quiet Clicky switches from Matias over BS or MX Clears! How would you compare them to Cherry MX Blues? Are they in the same ball park or should they not even be in the same sentence?

Tactility wise they're more tactile than MX Blues, but they feel just as light, maybe a hair heavier. Lighter and smoother than Clears, closer to ergo clears, but again smoother and shorter travel, with way more character to the stroke than any Cherry like switch. The closest in feel would be Topre 55g, but those quiet matias switches feel less smooth and more mechanical (sharper tactility), so if that's your thing, don't wait with ordering.
You know what, on a second thought, if BS ever mated with Topre and they had babies, they would be those switches

[czarek]

Good thing I'm already used to layout as I've been using my GON programmed with this layout for last 2 weeks

[czarek]

Sorry for spamming the thread - just put a new dress for this keyboard - it's even quieter in aluminium case. In fact it's quieter than my retina macbook pro! Not to mention it looks gorgeous

My favorite keyboard now. It types, games, looks and sounds cool!

Maybe you should just keep it as a spare instead of selling it

It looks amazing btw.

First time typing on my Pok3r in a long time, it feels awful now. There's a lot of ping and they stabilizers are trash. I'm not really a big fan of the whole 60% thing anymore either.

If you have stock MX-Clears in it that might have something to do with it also

I would love to keep it but I can't afford to on my student "budget"  ) selling all my keyboards in hopes of gathering enough to participate in the new SQ-1800 GB

I'm typing on the one with mx blues in it, I find the clears on the Pok3r to be better than stock blues but I love my blues on my RS96.

I'm really liking this look ~ Makes me want to play HL1-2 again! That matching Lamda cap is so very appropriate (not to mention the Tekmats)

I'm really digging this, even tho the non-standard alpha/mod theme... but then again, I'm just a sucker for 75%

how are the 65g compared to Clears for you? I purchased them and I wanted to solder them on to a Pok3r that I have but I haven't gotten a chance to do it yet.

My keyboard. Dvorak / Korean. Das keyboard 4C. brown switch.

Typing on a scissor switch keyboard (MBP lol) but my daily is Pok3r MX Brown Absolutely in love with it even though it takes me sometimes to get used to the 60% layout.

[Homenubbie]

Pok3r represent!

[davkol]

This might sound like a heresy, but a Logitech K740, because it feels so good. The soft domes w/ scissor switches are pure sex, esp. combined with those extremely smooth keycaps. I'll probably resell it though, because it's full size and I neither need, nor want a numpad.

[Steezus]

Typing on my new Orion v2 w/65g Tactile Zealios. First time using Zealios and they feel great, with a plastic plate the click is not too loud at all but the bump is fantastic.

[rowdy]

For some reason I'm using my QFS MX green with JTK WoB keycaps at home atm.

Getting away with the clicking for the moment ...

[fublamchu]

Using a G710 at the moment, I really want to buy a smaller keyboard though. I find myself not using a lot of its keys

On Pok3r with stock clears - surprisingly not that bad

Been using my 55g AE for a couple of days now. I un-silenced it because I don't really like how the RF sounds with the silencing rings. Totally fine on the HHKB but I find it not too pleasing on the RF.

It's hard going back to anything after Topre....but it was the most work appropriate board I own and it's sure as hell better than the Dell rubber dome they gave me

Right now, I'm using my KBP v80 with Matias Quiet Click switches. It's pretty much my favorite keyboard at the moment - love the tactile feel, and it's super quiet too.

The only thing I'm not happy about is that there aren't any blank keycaps made for the ALPs switches, although I must say that the Dolch doubleshots are pretty nice (with the exception that they have a Windows key, while all of my systems are Macs).

[Vox_PT]

Turtle Beach Impact 500 with Cherry MX Blues. I quite like the sound and feel of Blues but I've noticed that a few keys are starting to "ping" and I'm becoming a little annoyed with that.
Soon to be a Pok3r with Clears and later I'll try Blacks.

Currently its mapped to FN+~, but I'm going to just change it to be the default layer and have fn+esc be ~/` Its got some weird bindings by default on TMK and CTRL on capslock is awkward when its a lockswitch...

You don't, you just suck it up and deal with it.  Its kind of a 'no ***** given' kind of keyboard.

I'd love to make a keyboard with no backspace, delete, escape, etc. Just got to learn to be perfect.

We recently had to take some HR tests at my job, which I absolutely hate.  One of the sections that had to be completed involved being given a question, and 2 minutes to respond to that question, with the catch being that you couldn't correct anything.  So if you typed a word wrong or wanted to erase a sentence or two, you just had to leave it as is, and I have to say it would the most upsetting test I have taken in recent memory.  Being able to look at my paragraph that I had typed up and see all of the spelling errors and nonsensical sentences just made me so...uncomfortable I guess.  I can't even explain why I felt that way, especially when you see people posting things online daily that are rife with spelling and grammatical errors, but I just hated having to submit something that looked that way.

The SSK is back on my home desk. Swapped it out from my GH60. Feels nicer IMO but I am not used to the pinging. Might have to dental floss it...
