Nice.  Yeah I saw some of those silicone balls on Imsto's website a while ago.  How would you compare them to o-rings feeling wise?

i dont know I havnt used them yet :P They will be going into my original KMAC when I rebuild it with greens though. i can tell yo uwhen i finally get to that which is happening before the LZGH as its already kinda started.

because having rgb on switch is too mainstream.

Finally turned my space bar around yesterday so it is back to front, and I can see why people do it, so much more comfortable.

What do they know of England, who only England know?

That is the diablo sanctuary set. Special group buy or something.

In other news, I ordered a grey ducky mini with reds, stoked!

Yeah.  Don't think I have ever seen them offered. Though that's not to say that they don't.

I have seen some pictures of it, but not sure if it was the real product or some type of for the photo thing :\

 

Anybody know any PBT keycaps that I can buy for my ducky with ISO and in europe?

Got a Corsair K60 a month ago and I hate it :D

Space bar broke with in a month.

Besides that, absolutely perfect keyboard.

(P.S I know I bought it used but it was great quality and mechanical keyboard are meant to be more robust yet I beat the shit out of my Razer Lycosa membrane and it was fine?)

Wow, that's a real shame about the keyboard. Is there no way to fix it?

What do they know of England, who only England know?

Not sure, looking deeply in to it as it is literally the perfect keyboard for me.

Contact Corsair and see what theyll do for you. maybe you can just buy replacement parts.

Just added noise dampeners to my Ducky shine 3 with Blue switches! Omg! I love it! They feel so much less harsh on my finger tips now, as I was bottoming out some of the keys when playing games... I should also really stop playing Ryze on league of legends as it will kill my keyboard faster because of playing him...

I bet you might have a hard time with MX Clears or Greens. I may have bottomed out Blues like crazy. I now have this keyboard with Clears that I still can bottom out.

Think I might sell my keyboard with MX Blues, and my PS Vita then maybe get a second keyboard with Greens. I miss my click.

I tried out a razer keyboard with green switches and they felt like ass! Really didn't like how they were...

I am still bottoming the blues out but there is now a rubber dampener which is saving my fingers a little

By Greens, I meant true Cherry MX Greens, not cheap Razer switches that aren't even similar to a true Green switch....

Ohhh they are different? I didn't realise there was Cherry greens... 

Yeah... Cherry Greens are just really heavy Blues... Razer Greens are just "gamer" oriented...

Ooooo, I might have to check the Cherry greens out! Sounds right up my alley!

The razer "gamer" keys were too easy to bottom and didnt feel quite right.
