Topre Realforce TKL or 104 $165USD
« on: Wed, 10 June 2015, 12:41:22 »
NCIX has the Realforce's on sale for a couple days.

black:

http://www.ncix.com/detail/topre-se17t0-realforce-capacitive-switches-1b-86199-1538.htm tkl

white:
http://www.ncix.com/detail/topre-xf01t0-realforce-capacitive-switches-56-86200-1538.htm 104

$199CAD = ~$165USD

Not sure if Americans can order on the Canadian site and vice versa, but I'd be happy to act as a proxy if thats the case.

That black full size is really tempting me.

Are all variable Topre boards silenced, or did they have non-silenced variable versions?

Mine was purchased second hand but as far as I know they are not silenced from the factory. I have however done a silencing mod on mine because I prefer it that way.

Yeah, there are non-silenced variable boards.

Personally having used multiple types of cherry mx switches (stock clear mx being my favorite) as well as 45g and 55g topre in the HHKB, realforce, type heaven etc I have settled on using the realforce full size topre variable board.

YES, the Thorpies are intoxicating BUT the 55g has always been my greatest downfall from the Cherry ensemble and I keep hating myself for that sick type of behaviour  :'( .

It still baffles me why Topre won't do a few runs of 55g 104 / Topre Type Heaven / 104 Hi-Pros.

Oh well... that's okay ... Royal Kludge will be happy to take your money.

I have no experience with topre personally. I had considered buying one of these to try, but I looked through sales threads here and elsewhere to see how much luck people had with reselling, and it seemed in most cases they either lost money or they didn't sell very quick. Had I had the money to loose I would've done it but it's been an expensive keyboard month and I have my sights set on a g80-18xx

Good to know about the uniform 55g being the most popular. I had considered grabbing a novatouch tkl from a store that has 30 day returns on keyboards just to see if topre was something i might enjoy, but the more i read about it it seems the consensus is its not quite the same experience as a uniform realforce or hhkb.

Ncix has some good sales sometimes but in limited quantities. Ncixus had a filco mj2 fullsize for like $92 earlier this year.

Oh yes, you can tweak your nipples regarding NCIX, especially when they run one of their sales  8) .
