Title: Help identifying switches
Post by: RicardoKB on Sun, 10 September 2017, 10:50:25

Hello,
Here I am again asking for help, amazing community btw
Found this keyboard on the cheap and saw somewhere that it can possibly contain alps blue or white, how much is this worth?

Thanks for the help :)

Pretty much all the information that I have:

NTC KB-6251 (https://deskthority.net/wiki/NTC_KB-6251)

The majority of these use plastic mounting plates, so they don't sound as good as they could do, but they're OK. Cheap and cheerful!

Hey! It´s ok for me. I'm happy just knowing there are some alps i can buy in my country. Pretty excited to know how it feels typing on them. :)))

Mine just feels like a white Alps keyboard, I guess. It's the only white Alps keyboard that I have in good condition. It's OK, but it's not as good as blue Alps: too sharp and stiff.
