Title: Squeaky keys?
Post by: Chakra on Fri, 17 June 2011, 00:40:12

Hi GH, I bought my first mechanical keyboard (SteelSeries 6Gv2) about 2 weeks ago, and today the big "J" enter key has started to squeak :(

It isn't too noticeable since I usually only have to tap return once, but if I spam the key it's super loud.

Has this happened to any of you, and what possible solutions are there?

Thanks
