Hey guys,

 

So I'm about to order a GMMK Compact barebones and would like to pick up some good quality keycaps. I'm new to all this so what would you recommend? I've read its better to go with double shot PBT, I don't want any crazy designs just plain black keys.

 

Ideally a website in the UK if at all possible.

 

Thanks guys.

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/  has some.

Otherwise you can order from caseking.de which is the mother company nowadays.

 

Appreciate it.

Those are going to be my keycaps of choice when I (if I ever do) get one of those GMMK modular keyboards (although I'm certain you can't get a keycap kit for a compact style keyboard).

 

Just make sure you have key switches ordered as well as those barebones don't include them (OCUK also sell sets of 120 key switches if they are required).

Yeah I'm going to order a sample set first as I don't have much experience with switches (only ever used razer orange) but from the looks of it the keyboard won't be in stock until the 31/05 which is a shame.
