Title: Need a recommendation for a new kb
Post by: Roner on Tue, 16 June 2015, 20:02:58

Currently I have a fmj2 on reds. I currently am looking for PCB mounted switches on MX greens and nonlit tkl. Any recommendations?

There is a CM Storm Quick Fire Stealth TKL with Cherry MX Greens on Massdrop right now. Sounds right up your alley.

I believe QF stealth is plate mount, not PCB.

That said, most keyboards in that size range are. Can't think of any off the top of my head that are PCB mount.

Is there a specific reason you want PCB mount?

I personally always liked the poker X because I enjoyed PCB mount clears and browns. Maybe that is why I love stock HHKB so much... softer landing.
