I'm definitely interested in a 60% with hot-swappable switches that fits in a standard 60% case.
A few questions:
How much will they sell for in USD? What site will they be sold from, or is it a group buy? Will they fit standard 60% cases (GK64 does not iirc because the screws are in different places)? How is the hot-swap implemented? Are they holtites? How does it differ from the GK64 that KBDFans is selling now? Will it be compatible with QMK or only specific software for that PCB?
Thanks!

can't you just get the faceW and some holtites? That's what I have right now, but I haven't assembled it. Only have to wait for shipping... like 3-5 days.

Hotlites are not size compatible with all PCBs and are not as durable a solution. This PCB uses the Kailh hot swap sockets, the same ones use on the Team Wolf and Glorious PC Gaming Race boards that are more durable.

The sprit faceW has been tested and is a perfect fit for both the led and switch holtites that are sold at most mech online shops. Also, I don't know why you think they aren't durable. As long as you get compatible parts they hold just as well as manufactured boards with hotswap.
Lastly, I keep trying to warn people who don't know... but cherry profile keycaps do not fit properly on R3 of switches that are upside down (as are all of the ones listed here) If you want to use OEM caps or DSA/SA profile, that's fine. Just know if you use GMK or ePBT sets the keycap will not fully bottom out on the caps lock row.
Well here we go again.
I think one of my personal goals here at GH will be to keep people informed about upside down R3 switches and cherry profile. You can search forum posts. I've talked about it several times. Some people just dismiss the fact because it seems strange that so many overlook it.
Yes, this means that all pok3rs with leds, all gh60 Satan boards, and almost all "gamer" boards have issues with GMK sets on that row. Yep. Crazy but true. You probably won't notice unless you have a linear switch.
Many have known the issue for years and just don't bother to explain. You'll see that is why all Korean boards keep the switches properly turned. Also why they offer the bfake with south facing leds as an option.
It is not the leds. It is the switch housing that makes contact with the key cap underside.

Just want to make sure because I really am interested in this 65% keyboard... You will update THIS thread when the GB becomes available? I just am trying to find out where I need to watch.
If the software is usable, I'd be interested, especially in an assembled 62 kit without keycaps.
Echo thaxxman's request as to where to be informed about the GB going live.

I'd want confirmation that the PCB is compatible with standard 60% case standoffs. The GK64 available on Taobao that I've been following appears to have non-standard standoffs: (Attachment Link)
I've been looking for just the PC-100 PCB for several months and wonder if that is being made available here without the "kit".

What is different from the GK64? Also what will be the price?iGK61 is a poker layout keyboard with hot swappable Gateron MX-based switches
EDIT: Seems like someone already did these questions, what about the holtites, are these kailh hotswap holtites or nah?
Wow looks almost too good to be true :eek:
Is it possible to have a ISO layout with the optical pcb?
When it will start? Wasn't supposed to start already?
Also, i don't understand how this software works, i need the software constantly running in background on the PC to make the keyboard and the different layouts work or i need to open that software and set my layers only once? (just like programmable keyboards)

Step 1. Go have some cereal. You arent thinking straight...
Step 2. Go to the first post. There is a link to the keyboard.
Step 3. READ website, by now you should be done with your cereal and thinking properly.
Step 4. ? ? ?
Step 5. Profit
What size is the space bar on the iGK64? I cannot find this information on the website.
It almost feels poetic that we could answer each other's questions...
BUT YOU DIDN'T!!!! ;D
QuoteBUT YOU DIDN'T!!!! ;D
Literally just screenshot this from the site.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/JPbY3zA.jpg)
ERO - If it can work independently from the software I am sure you can uninstall it as soon as you are done setting it up...
So efficient, so cool.

Rofl why the hate, my question was like 5 hours ago when the GB wasn't started yet. I noticed like 2 hours ago that the GB started.
Regarding the software, i'm pretty sure that in the site nothing talks about my question and even if it say that is fully programmable, they mean with the software so i STILL would like to know if the layers will work if i uninstall the software later.

Hi !
Just join the group buy for PCB only!
I have few questions:
* Regarding the LED, does it shine through the board on the bottom part also? Since I will likely use this PCB inside an acrylic case, it will be nice
* does it support underglow RGB?
* the keyboard is fully programmable? It is said 4 over 5 layers are programmable? What does it mean? The first one is not programmable?
* What is the estimated time for delivery?
Thanks for your answers!

---------Sorry, no.
* does it support underglow RGB?
---------No.
* the keyboard is fully programmable? It is said 4 over 5 layers are programmable? What does it mean? The first one is not programmable?
------The default layer can't be programmable, but it has 34 multi-functional keys.
3 layers for on-board programmable ( With software, you can configurate these 3 layers. After that, you can use these configuration, without needing the software any more)
1 layer for online programmable ( Only opening the software, you can program this layer)
* What is the estimated time for delivery?

I have a few questions about the positioning plate :
1. On the plastic case, what color is the positioning plate, anodized silver or painted white?
2. Will the plate on the CNC cases match the case color like on the Gk64s from Taobao?
3. From the photos, the positioning plate does not have standard Poker 60% holes for mounting into a standard 60% case. The photos seem show a plate that is only compatible with the GK64 case. Is the plate only compatible with the cases offered in the GB?

For iGK61, iGK61p and iGK62, whether you choose plastic or metal case, the positioning plate is printed white.
For iGK64, whether you choose plastic or metal case, the positioning plate is anodized silver.
