Never heard of this brand but this is about all I could find, it seems to come with many LED colours but is tenkeyless which is a design I would never choose. Sorry if this is isn't helpful.

I don't expect to ever find one but decided to ask here just to see if someone out there has seen this, I want a gaming grade mechanical keyboard WITH led backlit functionality but with cherry mx white switches.

 

I know that the most common types are cherry mx blue and reds but hear me out, my coworker actually bought a cherry mx test thing it was just a piece of metal with EVERY single type of cherry mx switch soldered on it so i got to try every single type of switch and fell in love with white the second i used it. Ever since then (about 4 months now) I have looked for a blingtastic cherry mx white keyboard but have turned up nothing.

 

All the ducky keyboards that use cherry mx white are not led and are pretty much bland in every aspect and every gaming keyboard thats pretty bling and led backlit use the "common" switches which are blue/green/red/brown.

 

So I ask you linus tech tip forum, does my magical unicorn of a keyboard exist or do I actually have to bite the bullet and buy a cherry mx red keyboard, buy my own cherry mx white switches and re solder all of the switches to the keyboard?

Considering that you want to buy MX White switches to replace the reds, that would cost you alot of money since the cheapest single switch costs $4.99 on Ebay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cherry-MX-Series-Mechanical-Keyboard-White-Switch-for-Replacement-Free-Shipping-/261421602016?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item3cddf114e0)

It's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature!
