Need a new keyboard, my old one broke today(bricked).
I liked the Varmillo Full size with Blue switches. So now I'm looking into buying a Ducky One 3 RGB hot swap. It's about 200€ and that is a fair price for me.
Whats the verdict on Ducky? Good or overpriced? Are MX Blue still the best and loudest clicks?

Great. I see the problem now. It's the fuckhuge 100w lights in my room that's distorting my color perception.

See, no fucking wonder I keep getting wrong color sets and end up falling back on beige.

Fucking lights man. I'm so used to them I didn't see it until now.

The CRI on cheap LED lights is crap, it is known.

These bad boys were anything but cheap, they're just overpowering.

Teal to BRG is the type of variation I meant when I mentioned the versatility of anodized colors. But yes, it was folly on my part.
>>
>>106992921
Assuming I'm looking at the right one, phillips says its CRI is 80. Not dogshit but not great either.
>>
>>106992945
Yeah it says >80. I learn something new everyday, I'll put up some >95 lights around my room and make up for it.

I want to a beige or grey/silver whute board. Who sells keycaps and can I just spray paint my base plate and case to match? I like the look of those old Cherry G80 boards in particular.

Ah yes, the innovative GMK mark of authenticity. I'm sure clones don't jump around in their trays as much.

>>106992322
is that a G300s?
>>
>>106993697
It's a G700s
>>
>>106992322
Which era g710? 100 dollars might not give you a better keyboard than a g710...
>>
>>106992322
Oh it's in your pick. Meh, that's not the good one. Maybe get a keychron v6.

I see the appeal of small keyboards now. Damn this feels good to use without bumping my mouse on the side.

This was on discount so I risked trying the new layout. I'm gonna pray daily to get an OGR2 extra next year. If not then I'll stop coping and get a Mode.
Also look at this awesome tray design by KKB, GMK should take notes. Just pull up the rubber mounts halfway and it loosens the bottom tray up. Pull it all the way and the top tray is accessible. Elegant!
