Title: Problem with Cherry MX Brown spring
Post by: sortajan on Fri, 19 May 2017, 01:08:14

I just purchased my first mechanical keyboard and everything works fine, but the 'Caps Lock' and 'D' keys have spring sounds (can hear something moving across the ridges of the spring, no ping on release). I wanted to know if this is common and whether or not I should be concerned or bother with an RMA (which I'm hoping I can avoid).

Keyboard - Rosewill RK-9000V2 BR (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00S5E4LX0/)
Switches - Cherry MX Brown
