Sup people of GeekHack, devouring mech keyboards
« on: Wed, 12 February 2014, 18:06:12 »
I only got started into the mech keyboard game recently. Started with a Corsair k60 board, thought it was awesome til i touched the function keys. I got ripped there, BAH!

So yes i am looking for another seller to sell that crap half-baked keyboard to, and got myself a Brown switch CM Quickfire XT, now that is a fine keyboard indeed, pretty much a Filco for cheaper. Put some WASD red keycaps on it, some PBT red caps and metal ESC key from geek_feng, and we have this:

54299-0


And i'm STILL getting another keyboard, in the hunt for a Clear switch keyboard. Because they felt more "mechy" to me and is essentially a stronger, beefier Brown, the only place i can buy (and did) is from this Aliexpress link: http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6020971284.html

since i already wasted $ on the Corsair k60, and the shipping is like $100, i had to go free shipping on it, which means 2 weeks. I'm enjoying this CM Quickfire XT in the meantime, still a lovely keyboard. Just needs them Clear switches though.

No problem mate, just ranting out on mech keyboards as usual!

So, no one got any better ideas of getting Clear keyboards besides the Aliexpress site?

Check out vendio.com - Might have a Leopold Fc600m with clears in stock. Nevermind, out of stock now. If you go to wasdkeyboards.com you can see when their 'CODE' keyboard with clears comes back in stock. CM is coming out with a MX Clear keyboard this year, too.

Yea I googled Ducky clears, they're out of stock EVERYWHERE.  Only the Keycool 108 model from AliExpress.com is available.
