New to the Site & Mechanical Keyboards

[Rathmourn]

Hey All,

First I discovered I had a weird interest in keyboards. Then I discovered all the gorgeous boards over on Reddit's /r/mechanicalkeyboards. After lurking (and drooling), over the beautiful pictures for a long time, I finally took the plunge and bought a Pok3r, with blues. I've been incredibly happy with it so far, but I'm definitely starting an intense desire to customize and lose more of my money. Further research led me to this site, and here I am. Look forward to meeting new people and pursuing this new hobby.

Welcome

What kind of research do you plan on doing?

I was originally trying to figure out what keycaps were available and how to go about acquiring them.   

Recognizing your avatar, I was actually looking at your GMK group buy keyset!

Welcome to Geekhack!

Being in the US and having a Pok3r, I'd guess you have a standard US ANSI layout.  This is fortunate, as nearly every keycap set will fit the keyboard

So you're completely spoiled for choice really, pretty much any material, any profile, and any colour!

And any price, unfortunately, from, say, Tai Hao for around $30 all the way up to a limited run GMK set for $200+.
