thats rare, what made you choose this one?

I love my Ducky, Deck, and Das but I have more room, wanted this type of casing since it’s easier to keep clean. I also liked the onboard volume. One less mouse grab. BTW, I’ll add an additional warning for potential keycap obsession.

thanks btw if you broke a switch can you replace it?

Considering that the k70 isn't hotswappable, you would need to take everything apart and desolder the switch.

the problem my left-shift key does not work I press it on the left edge of the keycap, and it only works if press it in the center what could be the problem?

To isolate your issue, pull out the keycap and press directly on the switch. If the switch does work as intended, then it may be an issue from 2 causes:
- Improper installment of stabs/factory flaws (not soldered evenly, or maybe slightly bent to begin with).
- Bent keycap, which could then pull on the two sides of the stab unevenly.

Hope you're happy enough with it that you don't fall down the hobbyist route. Keeps the wallet safe.

So pretty! How does it feel?
aeiou403 OP t1_ix0pd35 wrote
I am really enjoying it also the aluminium frame feels really great. I replaced my old office dell keyboard with this.

I saw that and really pondered on it. I got lucky with mine - got it from Amazon and I'm pretty sure it's a no-name thing but it feels nice, sounds nice, looks nice, so it does what I need, but I've had some comments while I'm on mic that it's pretty loud (the bits are blue under the keycaps) so I was looking at the Corsairs as a similar layout but I wasn't sure if it'd sound or feel the same (I do a lot/most of my shopping from home these days so can't really go test one out).

If you are using Nvidia's GPU use RTX Voice, it will basically remove every background noise. I hope this helps, Blue are noisy no doubt about it.

Oh! I will look at it!

Congratulations I am using this one too. Be careful. This is my latest of 4 keyboards and I love them all. It can become an expensive obsession. :)
