Twice as many V60 as Pok3r. Are the V60 nicer boards?

Based just on the fact that the Pok3r comes with an aluminum case, I would say no. Also, I don't think the v60 is programmable, and if it is, not to the degree that the pok3r is.

Started collecting 60%'s in the last year and a half or so,actually used to have more boards in total but sold some and traded some to move on to mostly all 60% or so sizes.

Otesanek More or less took the words out of my mouth.  The KBP V60 only has a few small advantages over the pok3r.

1. It has a much greater switch selection that is not available on pok3r's MX whites,Matias switches,Gaterons etc.  So unless you want to customize your pok3r and install your own switches the KBP V60 offers many switches the Pok3r simply does not.

2.  Before the pok3r hit the scene with it's stock aluminum case and it's backlit variant the KBP V60 offered a Dual LED board versus the non backlit pok3r,or against the backlit poker 2 offered two light colors...though now that is largely irrelevant especially with an RGB Pok3r on the way.

Besides the rarer switch types the other reason i have several V60's is they come up in trade offers quite a bit, and while i prefer pok3r's overall i do still very much like KBP V60's.  Both of my pok3r's i bought purely from my own wallet.

I hate to say that changes quite a bit ..hence why i keep so many boards on hand.

But as of this very moment?  The Backlit pok3r with MX Clears and BSP Cherry Profile PBT caps.

Something about the MX Clears with thick Cherry profile keycaps just fits ever so perfectly together.
