Hello, I am completely new to the custom KB scene, but I've done some research and watched a lot of YT videos.

Currently using a Cooler Master Masterkeys Pro S with Cherry Blues w/ KPRepublic japanese (hiragana) PBT keycaps.
My friends have slowly baited me down this rabbit hole, so I'm planning to build my first custom.

At the moment looking at KBDFan's KBD75V2 w/ Novelkeys X Kaihl Jade Box Switches.
As far as caps go, I haven't found which ones I want to get as most of them are already done with the groupbuys, sold out, or COVID-19 related issues, lol.

Welcome :)

IDK if it's still an issue or with just only certain box switches but they'd mess up GMK stems so watch out for that :thumb:

I hear that the issue has been rectumfied lately, and they have fixed the stems on recent switches so as to avoid this problem.

So I have failed to buy the KBD75V2, and I really like the left side USB-C and the overall aesthetic of the case.
Is there any other recommendations on possible cases that are 75% that I can purchase right now?
I know the Jades are still available so I'll buy those asap.
