Hi! I have been looking around on geek hack for about a week or two, but just made an account! Any tips for a noob?

Read around, watch youtube to hear how different switches sound, and decide which board you wanna get.

Read as much as you can.  There's a wealth of information here if you just take the time to actually check it out and try and absorb it.  Make decisions for yourself, not based on what the majority or senior members may say.  Remember that this is the internet.  Oh, and most importantly, have fun. :thumb:

Welcome to the site.

Don't go around stating your opinions as facts, or take other people's opinions as facts. This is a very subjective hobby, and there's a lot of hands on learning you gotta do to figure out what you like.

Welcome to Geekhack!

Tip 1 - read this: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=68372.0

(Or the links contained therein.)

That will get you pretty much up to speed with much of what goes on around here.  Some of it might not be applicable - if you are not planning on doing any soldering, you can skip that bit, for example :)

Other than that, just browse around, ask questions when you want to, post pictures in the media (https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=113.0) section if you have some, and enjoy spending money on keyboards :D
