Title: more caps like poker2 pbt caps?
Post by: Jixr on Mon, 28 July 2014, 13:02:13
Hi everyone, I have a poker2 laying around, and I never use it because I prefer the original poker layout ( if anyone wants to trade lemme know )

I love the thick PBT keys of the poker, they feel and sound amazing, but obviously the fn layout is different between the X and the 2

Are there any keycap sets that are like the poker2 sets just without all the poker2 specific legdends on them?

I know there is the KBT vortex sets, and I have a set of those, but they are expensive, and super low quality ( tons of rough edges and not anywhere as nice as the thick poker2 keys )


Thanks

Also Ducky thick PBT.

I believe all the PBT 108 key sets sold here that cost more than 60$ are thick PBT:

They are similar profile to the Poker II caps, too (OEM profile). You can find various sets of thick PBT caps in the Classifieds section now and then. Some will be OEM profile like the Poker II, some will be Cherry profile and you may even find one or two DSA or DCS profile.
