Title: Possibility for a keyboard with blue switch and turkish layout
Post by: un1x on Sat, 31 October 2015, 16:36:41

Hey, i'm living in Belgium trying to get a cherry mx blue switch keyboard with turkish layout.
I've had Ducky shine 3 in the past i loved it but leds were dead so i got a razer but i hate it, i dont feel the feedback enough when i'm pressing a key.
I had a look to wasdkeyboard website, it's amazing that you can get a customized keyboard but the shipment cost 45 $ for a total of 195 $ for a keyboard.
I'm wondering if i can't get an cheaper on other ways ?

I'm not having any luck finding a pic of a Turkish keyboard layout, is it standard ISO like this?

If so you can buy any keyboard that has this layout with blue switches and just get the caps from wasd, which should be much cheaper to ship than a big heavy keyboard.  What makes it "Turkish" is the setting you choose in your operating system, the codes the boards send to the computer are the same :)
