While I do not disagree with that statement I tend to lean to the side of its a diy keyboard without a pcb so basically if you can use it why not. A cheap tin solder is better than nothing if you already have it. Keyboard build log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 13, 2016 Got my first keyboard a few days ago, it's a Nixeus Moda V2 with Kailh Blue switches. Despite being very pricey in my country (R$360), It really is a confortable keyboard, the keys have a nice sound and feel very uniform despite being made by Kailh. The keyboard is very strong, it has a metalic top plate with the switches above it and the bottom plate is made of a very thick and strong plastic. It weights quite a lot and feels premium. It also comes with Mac keycaps and has a Windows/Option button lock and N-Key Rollover. I plan to put some diferent sets of keycaps on it.

Posted March 14, 2016 Due to insane pricing on good mechanical keyboards in my country had to settle for Razer Blackwidow Stealth which was in a reasonable price range.

Posted March 15, 2016 I finally bought my first mechanical keyboard today. I picked up a G710+. It is going to take a bit of getting used to, as I'm upgrading from a K350, which has a non standard shape to it. Typing feels lovely compared to the keys on the old board though. I'm not sure if I like the gray keys on WASD and arrows though. Eh, at least now I have an option to replace them if I decide to.

You could have always imported one, just an idea. I checked that option, import charges here are 37.5%(for electronics, cellphones, pc parts etc) out of entire purchase(item + shipping) so the price would be the same with a slight difference of 100 lower than what the store is selling.

Posted March 16, 2016 Due to continuous pain in my left hand I'm looking for new keyboard. I had similar problems in my right hand before, and it stopped hurting right after I changed my budget office mouse to a bit more ergonomic one (Logitech G602), and that's why I'm certain better keyboard will do wonders (currently I'm using laptop keyboard). I do have couple of requirements though. First of all is budget, I want to stay somewhere near 100 € price and should include shipping (I'm from Slovenia, I have no problems ordering in EU). If there are no good options I might go for a bit more money. My next and last wish is that the keyboard doesn't have numpad. I can't live without function (F1-F12) keys, but I can do without arrow keys, so if there are any options for that I'm listening. Other than that I have no requirements, it can be backlit, wired/wireless, ... Any help will be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
