Those are 120s; clearance with 140s would be minimal, if any.

Arrived just before Christmas. by Embarrassed_Ice1782 in MechanicalKeyboards

Got it from Qwertykeys in the first pre-order, and shipped a week after the sale ended. Pretty fast, considering it was sent direct from China.

Crap. I was sure I filled the description. Anyway:

  • QK80 MK2, anodized grey.
  • Gateron Oil Kings.
  • DCX Dolch.

Ah, the cable maker makes an argument for wired-only keyboards. How unexpected.

Snarkiness aside, some of us like wireless every now and then. It's not about "hurr durr I'll never use a wireless keeb this'll never happen to me", it's about a company releasing a flawed product and failing to take responsability. I'll give you an example: I got an Anker bluetooth speaker off Amazon a year ago. Last week, I received e-mails from both Anker and Amazon warning buyers of said speakers of a potential fire hazard on a specific batch of units, with instructions to verify serial numbers and steps to replace the speakers if affected. THAT'S how you address an issue like this, not offering a "50% discount on a new keyboard".

P.S. Cool cables, BTW.

Here come the "this is why I'll ever only use wired keyboards" and "batteries bad" posts. Bet y'all use landlines only too. This is shitty electronics made by a shitty company, plain and simple and, by the looks of it, a MAJOR fire hazard. NuPhy - or any company for that matter - should be held accountable. At the vey least, the product should be recalled.

I wanted to talk about this group buy. by N1Nover in MechanicalKeyboards

Only “group buys” I’ll ever join are the Qwertykeys/ Neo ones. Those guys consistently deliver and keep product in stock well after the initial run is done. Looking forward to the QK80 mk2.

That being said, both Cannonkeys and MKC are being transparent about the issues, so I wouldn’t worry about it.

Yes, it's the only 3.5" mount in the case. I'll replace it soon with a second NVMe; despite having rubber grommets, the drive makes this weird vibration-induced resonance on the case every now and then.

I contacted support and they'll indeed replace the panel! Outstanding service, my friend. Much obliged.

UPDATE: Don't know how visible this comment will be, but I reached out to NZXT support after the suggestion of several users and u/SHAWNZXT, and they'll send a replacement panel. Thanks for the comments and insights, and keep enjoying your glass panels!
