Title: Alu-case KBT Pure- does the Poker fit in it?
Post by: HongKongFui on Sat, 27 April 2013, 08:07:44
Hi, as my patience skill is not the best I'm thinking of buying the KBT Pure from their website that sits in that alu-case.

The idea is to change the cases, put my poker in that alu-case and the pure in my poker case. But since now nobody could tell me if that would fit 100%. The Pure in alu-case is only available with green backlights, so without the possibility to change cases I wouldn't buy it. I'd sell the pure afterwards, green backlits is not my style :D

Sorry if this is the wrong forum.

Was about to post :P

Yeah it fits, slightly fiddly getting the pcb in, had to put it in at an angle then wiggle a bit, but that may have partially been due to the plate, or just my case in particular, since it's not perfect.

only thing stopping me from switching out the cases is worrying about the plate...i feel like mine would come over the case...it's super low profile. plus it looks awesome on my pure

Only difference Pure has extra screw hole between GH keys than Poker and the case will have a standoff for the screw. Dimesnions are identical, as is GH60 PCB. Any case made for any of these will fit any of them.
