Hey, I'm planning a keyboard build and am kind of attracted to brightly coloured parts. I'm not talking messy and rainbow, but organised and bright. I'm battling myself over whether to go for a bright green TEX aluminium case or stick with a safer grey/black. The rest of my parts are going to have a green/black theme and was wondering whether anyone with (or without) a brightly coloured keyboard could give their opinion. Do you get sick of the bright colours? Does it light up your day every time you look at it?
Thanks. ;D

Yellow's good.
Goes well with the green :D

You mention TEX...I'm assuming the build you are planning is a 60%?
I just ask because I've been looking for a TEX case for my TKL Filco for MONTHS now but it seems they are never going to be produced again.

If you're planning a 60% as it sounds most of the case will be invisible anyway - you'll only see the border round the edge while using it.
Personally I like colourful things and the F row at the top of my boring black fullsize is full of pretty coloured artisans and I don't get sick of them, I would like a colourful case. You know yourself better than we know you though so our opinions mean little :))

Hey,
Yeah, I am making a 60%.
Here https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=616etail&616 (https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=616etail&616) is the case I was looking at. Here https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=630 (https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=630) is black one.
Hopefully there is a group buy for these because they're quite pricey :/
Hope I've found what you've been looking for. :D
