Rubber Dome keycaps on Topre?
« on: Fri, 11 December 2015, 18:43:06 »
Just want to know, is it possible? I've been eyeing a G83-3077SAU for a while now, the only thing holding me off the purchase is the fact that the keycaps are not MX compatible. However, the stems of the keycaps look like they might fit topres, just want to know whether anyone else has tried it before?

That's G81, which uses MY switches, which are compatible with MX stems.

Bah my bad.

There are some keyboards that are rubber dome and their caps do fit torpe. But they are so far and few between.

If I had to say if those did, I would say no.

Oh well, I guess it's not much to spend on a chance of gold. $20 aud goes down the drain, I'll report back later once I get the board.
