Tell me why I shouldn't buy this keyboard Sup Forums.
I type a lot but I hate cherry switches, buckling springs, and rubber domes. I normally type on a scissor switch keyboard because it takes the least amount of energy to type on (it's the only keyboard I can type for 18+ hours on without feeling strained).

Be a man and buy a Das Keyboard ultimate with blank caps and blue switches.

>paying hundreds of dollars for a rubber dome
Just buy a Dell Quietkey NMB slider over dome and you can get Topre at a traction of the cost
Jackson Morgan
Bought one in the past. Uses cherry switches :(
Landon Green
Why would I tell you not to? I'm typing on one right now! I own three cherry-based boards, but my daily driver is a Realforce.
Mason Scott
Real men use greens
Leo Taylor
Because its placebo, an expensive placebo
Gabriel Jackson
Pic related is where all cherry switches belong.
Hunter Carter
Topre Switches are really nice. The problem is the availability and price.
Lucas Robinson
I have a Realforce 87U with 55g weighted keys. It was expensive as fuck, and a huge gamble since you can't demo the units or get a test board.
Most Topre fans don't like to call Topres "rubber domes" because they feel as different to cheap rubber domes as Cherry Blacks do to rubber domes. But they are rubber domes nonetheless, but likely the best feeling rubber domes that money can buy.
If your concern is about fatigue/strain, I'm not sure what to tell you. I actually have much less fatigue while using this keyboard compared to my old cheap rubber dome, which seems odd because of the 55g weighting. I also have a Varmilo VA87M with Cherry Black keys and that keyboard doesn't give me any fatigue either. I think that for me personally, fatigue is just a problem with cheap shitty keyboards. I even developed a cramp in the middle of my hand a couple years ago, and that went away ever since I switched to the Realforce.

i have a realforce 87u 55g and i'm fuckin loving it
if you get strained from typing on stiffer switches then consider the variable force things

>Razer Cheaply made trash that appeals to the lowest common denominator.
I have never owned a Razer product that didn't fail in under a year.
Matthew Lewis
The only devices that make an argument for them as a serious product maker are the Deathadder and the Diamondback.
But again, had those fail on me pretty quick. Razer's garbage.

These are linear switches with low actuation force, so you shouldn't have problems with them.
Nolan Walker
Yeah but they feel like pure shit when you bottom out, even if you add o-rings. Don't ask me to train my hands to not bottom out, that's like saying a shitty floorboard that makes noise when I walk on it is my fault because I should walk more gently.
Jacob Howard
Enjoy your shitty scissor switches then.
Aaron Ramirez
Those are actually fine compared to the misery of bottoming out with cherries. Really.
Easton Howard
They feel fine to me. I don't like bottoming out rubber domes though.
Daniel Evans
Agreed. Bottoming out on a rubber domed keyboard is the worst, they get progressively worse as you type on the keyboard after a couple of weeks. They sometimes get so bad that there's a small hitch followed by a pop of the key getting stuck and dislodged (happens increasingly more slowly because of the worn down rubber down).
Charles Morales
I bought a topre for similar reasons OP and it might be a meme switch but I quite like it. I can't ever go back to gritty ass cherry and it's finger shattering bottom outs anymore.
Matthew Nelson
Meant to say "worn down rubber dome".
Nathan Robinson
I use Cherry MX Black switches, and I can smash on them pretty hard, and the springs make it feel nice to my fingers. Trying to use scissor switches is like punching concrete though. I have trouble lasting with them for 2 minutes when I'm pressing really hard on keys. Oh, and my mechanical keyboard has profiled rows of keys, so I barely have to move my fingers when I type.
Xavier Murphy
>Scissor switch like concrete Maybe you should type less angrily? It's never a rough type for me.
I've had them side-by-side and cherries just feel terrible when bottoming out, even when compared to a scissor switch. I would take almost anything over that experience:
Kayden Myers
I don't use force when typing, but it's the closet thing to bottoming out that I do.
Alexander Sanders
buy whatever the fuck you want faggot stop looking to a bunch of retards on a social networking site to sway your decisions
Xavier Sanchez
Bretty gud opinion.
Brayden Mitchell
>y-you shouldn't type for 18+ hours
Blake Gutierrez
I do though. Regularly. Almost every day.
Logan Evans
My cousin has two topres, realforce with numpad and one without. The big one has a completely different feel to it, keys weighed differently and it even might sound different. It actually sucks in comparison to the small one which I also have.
Brody Bailey
Because USB is trash, use PS/2.

Living the dream?
Cameron Torres
Nah, not Sup Forums. Just work and a lot of essays.
