Hey guys, I was wonder if I can replace the blue switches for the brown switches, so i wrote an email for QWERkeys and they sent me this picture about the models.

Does anybody know what part number exactly "fits" in this keyboard?
Edit: Well, according to DeskthorityWiki:
- MX1A-xyNN no diode, plate mount (no fixing pins)
- MX1A-xyDN with diode, plate mount (no fixing pins)
- MX1A-xyNW no diode, PCB mount (with fixing pins)
- MX1A-xyDW with diode, PCB mount (with fixing pins)
Okay it's plate mounted. Now I need to know, with or without diode? What's the difference?:-X

Sounds easier if you just buy this http://www.razerzone.com/gaming-keyboards-keypads/razer-blackwidow-tournament-stealth-edition/
As for the diode thing I'm not sure, I always thought all MX Brown switches are all the same?

The switches are the same, however you can purchase switches with or without a diode pre-installed. You can always put a diode in it if you end of needing that.

I read something about n-key rollover. In that case better buy all with diode.
Thanks.

Damn it :'( And I searched about that after the announcement of the BWU 2013 Stealth. Well, thanks for the link, I think I'll stick with this for a while even not liking the mx blues. :(
