Title: Hello everyone!
Post by: stiligFox on Wed, 24 May 2017, 22:20:13
Hello everyone! I'm stiligFox, and I'm pretty new to this community... I got into the mechanical keyboard addiction about the years ago when I bought a WASD TKL board with custom keycaps. Then I got a full-size WASD board with even more custom caps! At this point I was hooked. For the last two years I've been using a KBParadise V60, but I've sadly had to sell it due to it causing the CPU in my hackintosh to get stuck in turbo mode :( I had no idea for two years! And now I'm waiting on my Vortex Core to arrive :)

That said, I've not been awake to find the exact board I like, so I'm in the process of designing my own, and am having a lot of fun in the process! I'm really glad to be here and hope to be able to pick some of your all's brains for ideas :)

Cheers!

Hey there! Thanks for the case again. Still figuring out what to put in it--I need a build with prettier plate if it's going to be so exposed :)

Haha, fancy seeing you here! And no worries, my pleasure! yeah, the V60 I had in it had a matching black plate, looks really good...

Thats a really weird interaction. I would never have expected a keyboard to lock a CPU in turbo!?

But anyway Welcome! I see you mention the boards, but switches have you gotten a chance to try.

And if you wanna spitball any design ideas hit me up! I love designing boards!!
