>I own a Ducky Shine YOTG

>Fight me about it

First for zealimemes.

Whats the best mechanical keyboard for 80 bucks or less?

Quickfire rapid.

You meme arrow switch is malfunctioning.

it's too bad they suck

unlike membrane buckling springs

They are the most tactile clear clone tho. Embrace the wobble.

enjoy the wobble

nah it's fucking gay
ergo clears are vastly better

Is it true that if you lube stabilizers it will get rid of rattle?

They definitely don't suck

>HHKB

sorry

this is a mechanical keyboard thread

Time to post my mechanical keyboard in that case

For the Ganss meme chinkboard with real MX blues

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Is it hiding under the rubber domes?

Even better

it IS the rubber domes

I want to go back to MX Blues since I'm not a huge fan of the WASD V2 with MX Browns I got, is the Ducky One any decent?

>ergo clears are vastly better
They are close if lubed, but definitely not as tactile. At least not as R1 Zealios, as I heard they changed the bottom housing on R2 to be the same as regular gateron switches.

Which switch for gayman and some usual browsing typing?
Red, Black? Maybe brown?

Holy fuck, what keyboard is this?

well, at least it's capacitive. unlike model Ms

why are they upside down? does it even make a difference

What is a good babby's first mech keyboard? Preferably blues.

Meant to quote OP. I can't find anything on Google, but this looks really nice. What keyboard?

GS87 if it comes back in stock at 59.
If not, Magicforce and Zhuque for Otemu clones or Ducky Shine and KBP V60/V80 for authentic.

newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129002

don't buy a meme chinese brand, this has a full 2 year warranty if anything goes bad, and it's still relatively cheap compared to others.

meant for

Wait, R1 Zeals are the most tactile? Glad I got in on the ground floor if true.

it's a ducky shine 4, but they removed the knobs before it was released

mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1014

no difference, the only note is the orientation will be different if you install some led's

Damn, the knobs are my favorite part. Still not a bad board, though. Thanks, man.

My new build

>not having a Mitu figure instead

fuck off please

I'm on a tight budget and would like recommendations for a non-shitty board. Could anybody help me?

>Budget
Below $100, preferably around the $70 range

>Location
America

>Preferred switch type
Cherry MX Blacks or Blues -- I'll only go Kalih or Outemu if I'm *really* desperate.

>Layout
ANSI

>Form factor
Whatever costs the least.

>Backlight
See "Form factor"

>Previous/Current Keyboards
I first got a Redragon Kumara, but I might as well have been using a membrane. The switches were advertised as being green equivalents but they sounded like blues, looked like browns, and felt like a keyboard that you could find in a 2005 middle school classroom. Right now I'm typing on a Magicforce 68 with the low end Outemu Blues, and I like the way that the switches feel more than the Redragon, but I'd still like something with a higher actuation force and better quality switches in general. Also, there's a shitton of key jamming on this Magicforce, which is a negative.

see

I just bought one of these have I made a mistake?

Look what came in the mail, Sup Forums.

Possibly. The greys look more like that nasty brownish grey that aged keyboards have. Check youtube/candid images on reddit. Good buy aside from that.

Someone is good at composition

Ducky ones are solid. I'm enjoying mine.

the one I bought is using blue switches, but in none of the videos do I see a messed up grey colors

youtube.com/watch?v=TnJH9zF1r14
here is one

Thats a cute figure. What is it?

okay I'm looking, but what keyboard is that?

Varmilo

Membrane buckling spring and Capacitive buckling springs are the best switches. Your topre bullshit isn't even on the same level.

I was the one insulting topre, dumb saggot

How does /mkg/ press their modifiers? I learned the palm ctrl method from some emacs guy.

Would I be able to get rid of a WASD V2 TKL with MX Browns for $100? Doesn't feel like it's worth that much but they go for $145 new

That clickbait

I would go lower. There are a lot of new MX Brown keyboards out there for $100.

Usually with my pinkie, occasionally with the ball of my hand. I don't use my palm much since moving to a keyboard tray.

I'm in Europe and I'm thinking that it might be easier to sell here if someone really wants a WASD since they'd have to order from the US otherwise

I don't think any sane person would buy a pre-hotglued Cherry board unless it was under $100.

Is the Novatouch a meme or is it actually worth it?

youtu.be/sd9_OYWUSSU

Meh, I'll put it at $100 and say it's negotiable, I mostly just want to get rid of it so I can fund a new board

Both.

Explain.

What's there to explain? It's a meme that's worth it.

I'm guessing he means it's a meme because it's CM and hybrid Topre. But the reviews are solid, and the hybrid switch allows for plenty of caps that go great with the minimalist design of the NovaTouch. I have one shipping to me now because the deal was good. I can't say it's worth it yet because I don't have it yet, but I've done a lot of reading on reviews and the board holds its own against the competition (but may not be the greatest).

Hey, so I put silicon grease on a Razer black widow TE that I got for £20 while cleaning it. Now some keys are hard and others have no tactile feedback or click. Any way I can save this keyboard Sup Forums?

uhh i would just suggest buying a 45g realforce or a 660c
but i mean if you can get one for a good price i dont see why not
topre is topre

fuck off with this shit hipster photography

Full disassembly of the affected switches and cleaning is about the only way if you got it inside the sliders

anyone hear about fosen switches?
just seems like gateron blues with a better noise

r8/d8/b8 my cool long keeb

Who /clicking in class/ here?
The teacher left out a bowl of ear plugs this week lol

are those blacks? put anime girl stickers under the plastic caps

browns and good idea

i hope to never have a class with you

How autistic are you, you fucking neet.

Are you that kind of fucking faggot?

I had a faggot like you in one of my classes last quarter.

You're going to get your ass beat you selfish prick

If you guys live around Vancouver. BC there's a Leopold tenkeyless with Cherry MX Blues for $45.

>Person posts pic of him in lecture
>Call him out on having no experience, education, technology

are the new cooler master rgb keyboards any good?

yes.

Haha, LOL!

I know what you mean bro, I get a certain satisfaction from /clicking in class/ (haha) too. What can I say rubberfags, get with the times!

The teacher is a bit of a fag, isn't he? You got something to say, say it to my face.

One time, a dude tried to give me shit for my blues, I just ignored him. He started yelling and wanted to start shit but his dipshit friends stopped him. Whatever, only a pussy resorts to physical violence.

I ejaculated on it before returning. Enjoy.

I can't be bothered to take any new pictures

where did you buy your keycaps?

I have exactly this board, fucking cant even handle the keycaps to be pulled out. Broke 2 out of 3 switches in half when pulling out the caps. Mind you I have changed keycaps before I got this shitty board. Not worth the 99 euros

If you read the discrip the guy clearly says the brownish color was beacuse of the yellow light he was using. He even says he kept it since under white light it looks normal

You insulted Model M's too you fucking troglodyte.

I've $80 an live in middle EU, any suggestions?

no

You can get some cheap cherry keyboards since thats where they are made

how does Sup Forums feel about wasdkeyboards.com?

I got an azio mgk1. It uses knockoff cherry MX, but is still great. My only gripe is the stabilizers on the shift key make it funky to press down on the very far edges. It's like 70 bucks or something

garbage

why's that? I've been thinking about getting the v2 TKL with clears

case is all sorts of warped and don't count on the mounting plate being flat
keycaps are among the worst

hmm alright

what would be a better alternative in your opinion? also is it possible to get pbt keycaps with the us altgr-intl on them anywhere on the internet? I can't find any

Maybe a bit normie tier because i've never heard of these brands in the thread but i've had a k70 vengeance with browns for about 3 years now.

I'm starting to desire more clicky switches but this keyboard is still fully functioning so i'm thinking of picking up something on the cheaper side.

I don't ever use my back lighting on this thing, but I do need to keep the numpad stuff and be a full size keyboard.

In the early 2000s, I used a Pocket PC phone with a fullsized keyboard to take notes in class, and I thought *I* was an autistic asshole. You've upped the ante.
