Title: Filco - MX Green
Post by: Classic on Mon, 27 May 2013, 16:23:33
After doing the research, I am interested in getting a Filco Ninja keyboard with Cherry MX Green Switches.  Do you think that model will ever be available or is this something that I am going to have to customize myself?

Thanks!

You may be able to get a CM Storm Stealth with MX Greens.

EDIT: Here is one spot to get one...

Yup, it's close to the Filco in build quality but at a much cheaper price.


If you're set on a Filco, they you're going to have to mod it since I've never seen a stock Filco with greens

No, yes.

Only CoolerMaster will have MX Green boards on demand. Ducky has released two MX Green boards, both limited editions.

not a fan of green.. way too heavy,  it has 80g right before the actuation point..  that's way too much..  Mxblue is 50

He's not asking for your opinion on switches, he asking about the availability of a certain keyboard. Everyone likes different switches bro
