Spacebar and baclspace very uncomfortable-ly loud and hurting my ocd

[trevoradrianfcb]

hey guys i recently got the gigabyte force k85 keyboard with kalih blue switches and the spacebar and the backsapce are making very loud bad noise.. i cant even hear the clicky sound like other keys.. i can only hear the stabilizers and i have cherry style stabilizers so i cannot lube then. i dont wanna remove the keyboard to lube them also..

does o-ring will help to reduce the noise.

thank you

The O-rings will help if bottoming out the keycap is producing undesirable sound.  However, gently tap the edge of the spacebar and see if you are hearing a rattle/wobble sound.  If you are I don't know that there is much you can do to correct this, unless somebody knows of a mod or trick.

By the way lubing this is pretty easy- just pop the keycap off and you can access the stabilizer with a wooden applicator.  Disassembly is not required.  Also try pushing down on the entire keycap firmly and evenly.  If the stem is not pushed inside the cap all the way you will get additional wobble.

Make sure you're hitting the keycap over the switch and not on the edge. Hitting it on the edge makes a lot more noise in my experience.
