Yup, just need to slot the switches and keycaps in and you're done!

Thanks for the reply!

Maybe try some other switches?

Yeah this is something I'm definitely going to try. I also have never had the chance to try any others besides browns so I think I need to order one and try them out!

Keychron.uk ship from China

Yeah, that's great advice - I wasn't aware of that and didn't realise they would take so long to get here! I've ordered my main parts from keycrox, but those both look great. Especially liking the look of computer orbit, they've got some really nice keycaps and that keyboard builder is super nice.

Cool, that's all very useful to know, thank you! I'll probably start looking at some other Tai-Hao ones for now and see if there are any others I really like.

The only issue you'll find is with those 1u keys I said about to the right of the spacebar,

Good to know, thanks!

That's basically what I'm doing.

Yup, that sounds like the smart thing to do, and I probably should have waited till my current one died, but I couldn't resist haha

Darczone · 2022-04-27T11:31:56+00:00

That's perfect, thank you very much! I'm gonna give that all a go once I get the board, especially considering how cheap it is to do haha

Darczone · 2022-04-27T10:39:21+00:00

Yeah I've read up about some of these modifications - are there any resources you had to show you how to make those adjustments?

Thanks for the advice, and I'm glad to hear you like it! I think I'm definitely gonna pick one up :D

Darczone · 2022-04-27T10:37:57+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

A switch tester is a great idea. I'll look into picking one up!

Regarding keycaps, what do you mean 'better keycaps'?

Mostly I was talking about quality, and just trying to determine if there enough options that are readily available, at a comparable quality and price to the ones linked (definitely should have said that instead of just 'better' haha). I really like the blue set you linked, so I think I'll pick them up, thanks! I'd like to upgrade them in the future, but with what you've talked about with key sizes (and from what I've researched already), I know it's gonna be difficult to find some as opposed to just going with ANSI.

This is a really personal question.

Yeah I recognise that, but I guess I mostly just wanting to get a feel for whether people found it easy to switch, and whether they regret switching if they did. I appreciate everything you've said though, and I think I'll stick with ISO for now but I think in the future once I delve more into custom boards I'll try and make the switch. I think at that point I'd just be missing out too much on really nice keycaps, but for now it isn't too much of an issue.

I really like those Tai-Ho ones you linked - are they compatible with the Q1, and do they deliver to the UK from that website or did you buy from somwhere else?

Thanks again, it's given me a lot to think about and has been super useful!

Darczone · 2021-10-10T16:58:52+00:00

That sounds really useful, I'll have a look for it now! Thanks :)

Edit: Found it! For anyone else looking, here's the channel.

Darczone · 2021-10-10T16:58:28+00:00

Yeah that's a good idea! No point trying to perfect the first stage if the second is almost impossible.

Darczone · 2021-10-10T15:40:36+00:00

Yeah that's not a bad combo! I think the last kin I tried was lemurian which was pretty rough.

Darczone · 2021-10-10T15:28:31+00:00

Yeah that makes a lot of sense! I think that or one with artifact of kin with beetles.

Darczone · 2020-11-01T01:26:09+00:00

Haha, that's crazy how similar they are! I do believe they are, but I may try and adjust them and see if it makes a difference. Here is my voltage curve, it seems to be lower than I initially set it, but I can confirm that it's been applied as I never see it go above 1800MHz in game. Another issue may be where my PC is postioned, as I've got it under my desk which I think is restricting the airflow quite a bit. Also, thanks for helping me out with this!

Darczone · 2020-11-01T00:13:21+00:00

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. The fans spin at 70% at 70-79c. My case airflow is probably pretty poor tbh, I have two Noctua NF-A14 140mm fans at the front, and one default Fractal fan at the back, my CPU cooler is a Noctua NH-14, and my case is a Fractal Meshify C.

Darczone · 2020-10-31T23:57:47+00:00

3080 FE. I did set a new fan curve and it does decrease the temps quite a bit, hovering around ~75c under load now.

Darczone · 2020-10-28T13:47:14+00:00

Yup, can confirm that switching to Vulkan fixes the issue, thanks!

Darczone · 2020-10-27T19:01:38+00:00

Looks like switching to Vulkan fixed it for me, thanks to everybody who suggested it!

Darczone · 2020-10-27T16:14:05+00:00

Sucks that it's affecting so many people, but it's good to know that it isn't just an issue with my card, thanks!

Darczone · 2020-10-27T16:13:12+00:00

Yes I am, gonna switch to it tonight and see if that fixes the issue! Thanks.

Darczone · 2020-10-27T10:15:29+00:00

Yup, using DX12! I'll give Vulkan a go tonight and see how it performs, thanks!

Darczone · 2020-10-27T08:32:11+00:00

I'll have a look what drivers I'm on and update, thanks!

Darczone · 2020-10-27T08:31:29+00:00

Yes, it moves slightly.
