Need help in choosing Tenkeyless Mech. KB
« on: Mon, 21 November 2011, 22:38:22 »
Hi,

First post so be nice! I'm planning on purchasing a Tenkeyless keyboard (KBC Poker or Noppoo Choc Mini), thing is I'm not sure about which switch to go for. At the moment I have DELL QuietKey and I like the tactile feel of the keys, but the clickyness could be better. It's too mushy... hard to describe really. So I just want to know how does it compare to Blues and Browns in terms of feel? I've seen videos and I really like the sound of Blues (that high pitched clicky sound) I'm just afraid that its gonna be too loud (Is it louder then DELL QK?).


On the same note what do you guys think of Noppoo Choc Mini? I heard they are poorly constructed (snap-on bezel, no screws...; bad soldering jobs, etc etc..) unless that's for the older models maybe?
I'm not sure about the Poker as well. F keys are function activated. Would be weird when playing games.

Typing to gaming (RTS,FPS) ratio 2:1.

Thanks!

Oh and I know about the wiki so please... :)

if you look out for a Noppoo Choc Mini, take the white one. It has very nice PBT keycaps.
I own 3 Noppoo Choc Mini and i am satisfied with it.

I have the Poker, and while I don't play that many games that need the fkeys frequently, I switch the left winkey to a 2nd function and you can one hand it though it is sort of awkward and takes a little getting used to. It's not much more awkward that say crouch jumping though.
