Damn That’s a great build Mostly because it just fits an aspect of being and old school beige keyboard, but somehow it’s also a cured dwarfish relic from the past! If the keyboard is capable of changing switches, with solder or hotswap, I would recommend trying hyperglides or any black switch (heavy linear), I think it would fit this theme nicely :)

Nah man, clicky switches all the way on this keyboard. I have box jades on my NCR80, and the way the hollow plastic case and the switches interact sounds fantastically old school.

I do also use a clicky tkl, but comparing it to my epsilon bm43, I get yelled less in the house for using quieter switches! I didn’t say that clickys are bad, I just recommend to variety the collection!

Hah, yeah, I wouldn't use the box jades + NCR80 combo around people. It's by far the loudest keyboard that I have.

Yea XD I personally use outemu blue switches for their light springs (I was wrong to do that, 45g makes me triple press “p” xd) But I did build a keychron k10 with navy switches and round keycaps for my friend! He likes it very much and the heavy springs makes him more precise in Cs:go, If I were to try a clicky switch on a daily driver then I wouldn’t use jades or navy switches, (I have samples of both at home) I would use white boxes (lighter spring and a little less click, I have a sample at home :]) or Outemu clream blue clicky switch (essentially it’s a Pom switch prelubed and it still clicks, sounds cool, I don’t have a sample at home :[)
