65% ANSI keyboard case and PCB? Without RGB?
« on: Fri, 21 May 2021, 11:06:01 »
Hello there!
I want to build my first mechanical keyboard and I really need help. I'm from the Netherlands so I need the ANSI layout. I already ordered Gazzew Boba U4 which also have been prepared with nice letter-less keycaps thankfully but I'm having trouble finding a 65% ANSI case and PCB that does NOT have RGB or wireless (hotswappable is my only option). A plate is needed. I think I would go for an aluminum plate since I want the keyboard to be as lightweight as possible, I like to move it around.
Do you have any suggestions? My price range will be above 200€ I think and the color should just be black but I'm happy with any color. I want the arrow keys to be a little separated like you see in the GMMK Pro. I really don't want a knob though. I wouldn't be asking if I didn't try everything in my power, which I did, by going through all 600+ PCB's listed on QMK's index of supported PCB's.

(I hate that KPRepublic ONLY has rgb options :()

Mark65 might fit the bill for a 65% with exploded arrows?

Looks good, but I can't seem to buy it since it's an expired group buy? Or could you provide a link to somewhere I can buy one?

You can probably find one on mechmarket perhaps? (aftermarket)

There must be a different 65% keyboard I can buy at a regular shopify/storefront? I have plenty of money, I don't want to buy used..

Nothing I know of right now, there's chapter one exploded 65%, but that has a knob and is gb.

Usually, even if you buy used, you can find lots of "new in box, built once to test" so its not exactly used.

Can't really "use" any board if you buy one every week hehe.

Alright, then if there are no exploded arrow key options, I just want a 65% PCB with frame and case, does anybody know anywhere I can buy one right now?

Could you link me one of those "new in box, built once to test" listings? I know I might not get the exact one you link but if you can link me to an active one I will know what to look for.
