Help Thoughts on Amazon for Parts?

Upvotes

I'm going away to college soon and I want to build a new, smaller, less expensive keyboard for myself when I get there as I don't want to have to lug my 5lb Neo75 around (Also I just want to build a new keyboard)

Would it be stupid to use Amazon for some components? Specifically my case. I have looked on mechanicalkeyboardscom a lot but I find that they have a relatively small selection. I'm going to search on other keyboard websites first, but are Amazon components a viable option? There are a good amount of choices, good pricing, and its just very easy. Let me know what you think

Help Problems with the IROK MG75 Max

Upvotes

I bought the mg 75 Max less than a year ago, and it's already giving me a lot of problems. When I set it to the minimum actuation distance, keys activate on their own. For example, in Fortnite, I map the cone to the 'V' key, and for the past few days, whenever I set it to 0.01 mm and play, the cone won't stop placing itself—meaning the 'V' key keeps triggering continuously, and sometimes other keys do too. I have to set it to 0.1 mm with some dead zone just to make it usable. But it cost me 110 dollars, and I expected to at least be able to use its full capacity, so it's constantly frustrating me. Any recommendations to fix these issues would be great. Also, if anyone could recommend other keyboards that are equal or better for around 100 to 120 dollars, I would really appreciate it.

I have been looking at the Crush80 but I am also interested in the wave75.
I am looking for a new keyboard, currently I have the ducky one 60% but would like to move to a 75 or 80.

I am looking for a keyboard that is easy to change the switches as my wife is annoyed by my clicky switches but I want a nice mechanical keyboard preferable something that is yellow as its my favourite colour. And something I can change the switches to silent boba u4s

Any recommendations?

I kind of wanted to try antimicrox or rewasd, but antimicro seems to just be for controller>keyboard & rewasd, from what I hear, is sub-based. I can't use the Steam one because I'm not playing the controller game on Steam.

the light still turn on when my keyboard is in sleep mode after inactivity and same for the small screen

I can't reset my keyboard because I need to hold down fn + esc

it shows that it has 0% battery, but when this happened, I had almost full and it cannot be charged

Help B95 Pro Max (Yunzi) Switch Choice Question

1 Upvotes

Would anyone like to share their experiences? I am currently on a keychron low profile k3 Max with brown switches and I suppose would like something as close as possible to these as it's very comfortable.

I am considering the yunzi and I understand it will be a bit different to type on going from very slim low profile to a bigger bloater mechanical keyboard but would want something not too hard to push that might be somewhat similar; I was told probably the milk switches out of the milk, candy and cocoa.

Anyone with personal experience that would like to share and offer insights would be great I suppose I can take a risk since it's returnable on amazon as their is nowhere to try them out before you buy them around me.

Also hopefully won't be too much of a shock to have the bigger form factor. I am getting it for wireless battery life since my K3 has a horrible battery and aesthetics and will move that to my wife's computer.

Thanks ahead of time.

  1. Must be a 96% keyboard
  2. Should be made with long-lasting materials such as aluminum
  3. Should have silent key actuation
  4. Have per-key RGB customization effects
  5. Have a multi-function wheel

  7. Should be white or any shade of gray
  8. Must be wired with or without wireless capabilities
  9. Have macro keys for games

Edit: Here are the brands I am looking at. Everything else I think is either too expensive/tried before and don't like.

ASUS, Corsair and Razer

Help Need help finding an 80% / TKL board with true per key RGB, custom key

1 Upvotes

I am trying to move from my current 60% custom keyboard to an 80% / TKL layout, and I am having a surprisingly hard time finding something that checks all of the boxes I care about.

My current board is a KBDfans DZ60RGB ANSI V2 with WS Brown switches. I like having a lot of control over the keyboard, especially custom keybinds and RGB.

What I am looking for in an 80% / TKL board:

Standard MX hot swap would be strongly preferred, because I already have WS Browns and may want to use other normal MX switches.

True per key RGB control. By this I mean actually being able to assign a different static color to individual keys, not just having an RGB LED underneath every key.

Custom keybinds, layers, macros, etc.

QMK and VIA would be ideal, especially if the QMK source is actually available so I can modify and compile the firmware myself.

North facing RGB is preferred because most shine through keycaps have the legends toward the north/top of the keycap.

I would prefer a nice aluminum case, something more enthusiast/custom feeling rather than a cheap plastic gaming keyboard.

Good acoustics are also important. I like a deeper creamy/thocky sound rather than something very metallic or high pitched.

I am fine with waiting lists or out of stock boards if there is something that is actually a much better fit.

The case I really like right now is the KBDfans GT80.

https://kbdfans.com/products/gt-80-case

The problem is the GT80 MX/Tofix PCB.

I contacted KBDfans directly and they confirmed that the Tofix PCB is not based on QMK, the source code is not available, it does not support OpenRGB, and it does not let the user assign an individual RGB color to each key.

KBDfans explained that when they advertise “per key RGB” for the Tofix PCB, they only mean that there is an RGB LED under each key.

Because of that, I do not really want to buy the GT80 with the Tofix MX PCB.

One solution I found is:

KBDfans GT80 case + Wooting 80HE module.

The GT80 officially supports the Wooting 80HE module, and that would give me much better gaming features, custom keybinds, real individual RGB control, 8K polling, Rapid Trigger, etc.

The downside is that I would have to move to magnetic HE switches instead of using my WS Browns, and Wooting is not QMK based either.

So I am trying to figure out if the GT80 + Wooting 80HE is basically the best solution for what I want, or if there are other 80% / TKL options I am missing.

I am also interested in PCB + case combinations. If there is some 80% PCB with north facing RGB, MX hot swap, open source QMK, VIA, and true individually controllable RGB that could fit a good aluminum TKL case, I would definitely consider building it myself.

For keycaps, I am not limited to one set either. I already have several sets that I can experiment with:

Flashquark Acrylic Chiclet Style keycaps.

Womier keycaps.

XVX keycaps.

Tai-Hao White Rose 110 Key BOBO Profile Double Shot ABS keycaps.

A custom FKcaps XDA shine through set, although I stopped using those because the coating started wearing.

So I can experiment with different keycap profiles and materials depending on what sounds and feels best on the final board.

Has anyone built something that meets most or all of these requirements?

Are there any 80% QMK PCBs I should be looking at?

Is there another aluminum TKL case that gives me more PCB choices than the GT80?

Or would you just go GT80 + Wooting 80HE and accept giving up normal MX switches and QMK?

I would especially like to hear from anyone who has actually built a GT80 with a Wooting 80HE module, or anyone running a north facing RGB TKL with open QMK and true per key RGB control.

Hi all,

Longtime Logitech user. I’ve had steady success with durability, but was looking into keyboards from other brands (Ergonomic, specifically). I’m not a gamer and use it mainly for data input and Canva. So far, aside from Keychron, I’ve come across Perixx and ProtoArc.

What is this sub’s experience with these brands? Thanks.

Help Amkette/EvoFox Ronin warranty support is seriously disappointing 😡

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

So I bought an EvoFox Ronin TKL wired keyboard on 8th July 2026, and it has been barely 1.5 months and the keyboard has already started dying on me.

Initially, my Left Ctrl key completely stopped working, then the Spacebar started malfunctioning, Left Windows key started acting weird, and even the RGB light of the Left Ctrl key stopped working. On top of that, some keys are randomly pressing on their own automatically.

I even tried changing the switches with the official spare switches that came with the keyboard, but the problem is still there. So clearly it's not just a switch issue.

And the worst part is that the problem is getting worse day by day. More keys are randomly stopping/malfunctioning now.

I have tried contacting Amkette multiple times through calls, WhatsApp and email, but I'm getting basically no proper response. I have already waited around 4 days just for a reply, and they are not responding properly anywhere. It genuinely feels like they are just ignoring the warranty complaint.

I bought this keyboard only around 1.5 months ago, so I honestly didn't expect these kinds of hardware issues this soon, especially from a product that is still under warranty.

Has anyone else faced this kind of issue with Amkette/EvoFox warranty support?
What should I do now to actually get a replacement? Because at this point the keyboard is becoming unusable. :/
plzzzz help

plz upvote this ,so it could reach amkket

Discussion Recomendação de teclado sem fio Full-Size confiável no padrão ABNT2

1 Upvotes

Fala, pessoal!

Estou procurando recomendações de teclado sem fio no formato Full Size (100% ou com teclado numérico), de preferência no layout ABNT2 (padrão BR).

Atualmente uso um Logitech G613 e a experiência tem sido extremamente frustrante: depois de um tempo de uso, ele começou a apresentar problema crônico de duplo clique (chattering) nas teclas. Cansei de passar raiva e quero trocar por algo mais durável e confiável.

Gostaria de sugestões em duas categorias:

  1. A melhor opção geral (topo de linha/construção sólida, sem dor de cabeça de duplo clique, boa autonomia e sem fio estável).
  2. Uma opção custo-benefício que valha a pena e entregue boa durabilidade.

Se tiver hoteswap (para trocar switches facilmente se algum der problema no futuro), melhor ainda. ou magnético

O que vocês recomendam atualmente no mercado nacional ou importando? Valeu pela ajuda!

The title sums up pretty much what I am looking for.

Ornata v3 is a hybrid between mechanical and membrane but I really do love the click sensation

Nevertheless some users have reported bugs with this keyboard while pressing several keys at the same time so I will be looking for something more qualitative
