Best way to get a poker with clears?

[pichu23]

Hmm if you guys are all getting it on it maybe I should too

I think the white with PBT keycaps does not support backlit legends so the light just shines from below the caps.

If you read their latest commend, they're trying to get PBT legends that support backlighting on their next drop but with no promises

Sometimes the underglow looks better but that's just my opinion. Hehe

Those aren't very common. And TBH I'm more interested in the fact that it's all white and PBT than the backlighting (which I'll never use anyways).

Isn't the standard non backlit white PBT as well?

On the MassDrop group buy getting a non-backlit version gets you the black case w/ black pbt caps.

Reasons for wanting a Poker 2:.
2. Fits all 60% cases..

I do wish it came with Clears, though.

IIRC people have trouble fitting Poker X and Poker 2 to 60% cases that were not designed specifically for Poker series.  Something about clipping the stabilizers?  Too lazy to dig up a thread.

Edit: only reason I see for buying a poker 2 is that the GH60 is still not out.  And pcbs from korea, while better for programmability, come with high shipping costs and often require user to solder diodes (diodes are not a problem to me but sometimes mounted diodes are cooler)

Seeing as how I would swap the case, caps, ands switches, a pcb is still better for most modders.  But as a stock 60, Poker 2 ain't bad

If the Duck Eagle is fully programmable, I'll probably end up selling this Poker to fund that. Pretty much the end all of 60% right there

The duck/eagle is also 2x+ the price of the poker, and I would love a gh60, but they are not out yet, like you mentioned, and the order closed months ago

Why would people diss the Poker II so badly?

It's a very nice board as far as i know. Worked flawlessly for the last year at least.

I ain't dissin' yo boards homie u ain't dissin' miiiine.

Its actually 3x the price after you add switches, keycaps and stabilizers.

Hence "end all".

Either they removed that option or they sold out really quickly.

Then again I've never seen any poker 2 keyboards come with clears as a stock option

Yeah that's a shame the current standard MX are still Black Blue Brown Red while people are mostly considering newly popular MX like clears or greens. In my opinion boards that offers six MX choices are doing it right.

I'll have to mod my Poker this summer which is pretty lame considering i'll have to waste those still-good browns.

When I first got here, reds did not exist. At least they've done that at all.

In the same way, the only way to get clears was to manage to source something that already had them from back when they were still a switch that was produced. At least you can source them as individual switches now.

Clears are not produced anymore? I'm pretty sure you can get some in here : Here LoL

About a year ago the only way to get clears was off old Cherry boards, tg3 cop boards, ducky shine 2 (why I got mine), and that one deck board.

Now they're sold at mechboards

I guess that's better for all of us now that people finally accepts Tactiles are nice and clears are better than brown at a superior level such as we are.

aka we're ****ing cool.
