Title: orings for my K90
Post by: Jangodog on Mon, 25 March 2013, 14:20:59

I saw the thread about making the Corsair K90 a little more silent with oring mods.

Unfortunately there are no webshops in Denmark to purchase the orings  :-[
So they are gonna cost quite a bit if i buy from webshops in say USA.

Are there any other options to use orings that are not ment to fit in a mechanical keyboard?

People have said that the little rubber bands that you get from an orthodontist might work. Also you might like really hard o-rings found in McMastercarr or Amazon

The K60/90 have issues; one in particular causes key repeating, noone knows for sure what causes it, but it appears in every one of the keyboards and can not be fixed. Corsair has promised a fix since day one, but have failed to deliver.

So far i'm pleased with it and purchased it used only for two weeks  ^-^
