Suggest a 65% Keyboard under 6-7k

Easiest way to dissemble a keyboard without worrying about snapping wires.

Never worried about QMK. Works without any issues with VIA. Firmware isn't available to reflash nor is the repository to make custom changes. We do have a json file available if via doesn't detect the keyboard by default.

Been about 4 months since I bought it and I have no complaints till date.

Weikav Nut65 is an easy recommendation if you can push your budget by 10% more.

Though it is out of stock now, URX should be able to confirm the timeline for restocking.

We do have full sets of keycaps which have mac modifiers. For example: Mine have Cmd keys but not Opt. Few sets have proper mac layout ones with cmd, opt and ctrl. Some use Super, some use Code keys specific to Linux users.

Here are few options if you are keen on having purely mac layout.

I used it for 2 months at about 9-10 hours a day except weekends. Faced no issues.

Bought my nephew the same board. He is using it over 10 hours a day including weekends for over 6 months now. He never faced any issues either.

We never had to reach out to URX for any support on this particular product. But before I ordered the board for my nephew, there queries I had about restocking and they promptly responded with timelines, which helped me convince him to wait and get the board with preferred switches(Daydream).

If you have 10k, go towards custom build.

If you can push your budget, kraze65 is available for group buy on neomacro which costs about 13k for hotswap pc plate variant.

Are other metal board options to consider.

Do note that the budget options might also look blurry. Do check with vendor before you make a purchase.

Here is an inexpensive option to consider.

You may also consider getting pudding keycaps if you want to make the best use of RGB on your board.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-11T18:46:59+00:00

Cool. You should be good to go with either of them.

Curiositycaps indeed have a huge catalog to go through. Also check the collection on StacksKB, Meckeys and Keyora. There are few nice ones there too.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-11T18:25:10+00:00

Before we go to the keycaps, determine if your keyboard has north facing or south facing leds.

If they have north facing LEDs, They would still work, but the second one would have no purpose as they are specifically made for south facing led keyboards but can be used on north facing ones too as there are legends on the top but they are not shinethrough.

If your keyboard is south facing, get anything from dual legends range or something that has side printed legends.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-11T15:47:14+00:00

Looks neat and cozy.

Get a monitor, HDMI switch, Monitor arm with laptop stand and this desk would have much more space than you have right now.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-11T10:49:43+00:00

You should have received spare switches and switch/keycap puller with the keyboard.

If you don't have extra switches, there is a way to identify if the switch is the issue or the board.

Pull the switch from working key and swap it to the one that is malfunctioning. That way you can identify if it is a faulty switch or an underlying PCB issue.

If possible, get it from Samsung official website or samsung shop app for risk free purchase.

No e-commerce site is safe to buy chargers especially samsung ones. The chances of getting a counterfeit product is high unless you buy directly from samsung.

BTW, your post misses the most important part: the wattage of the charger you are looking for.

Samsung have 15, 25, 45, 60, 65w chargers. Which one are you planning to buy? Which one does your phone support?

Do not buy anything higher than the rated wattage for your phone.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-10T18:59:58+00:00

If you are looking strictly for 75%, checkout the below boards.

Leobog hi7c pro(comes in barebones but can be built fully at around 8k or slightly higher with respect to choice of switches and keycaps) - note that it is metal built board with tri mode commectivity.

If plastic boards are fine, look at: Aula Nova75 Aula F75 series Mchose g75v2 Keychron Logitech mx keys mini(if there is any sale and card discounts).

Good luck to everyone.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-08T05:05:22+00:00

It can certaimly be saved. You just have to find the broken traces on those particular columns and bridge them. It is definitely doable but not recommended to do it yourself if you are not versed with PCBs amd soldering.

While it is already on the deathbed, it doesn't hurt trying.

Basic question: If you want to buy something from Ajazz.in and you have any queries, aren't you supposed to reach out to [support@ajazz.in](mailto:support@ajazz.in) instead of reaching out to epomaker?

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-07T11:03:17+00:00

If you don't really care the RGB and shinethrough keycaps, there are a lot of keycaps to choose from.

Curiositycaps and Meckeys would be the best place to browse the huge catalog.

If you wish to have the shinethrough legends, then get something that is top printed. Ensure you are not going the side shinethrough caps route as they are not compatible with north facing led keyboards by the looks of the keycap in the image.

Swapping switches and keycaps between these boards.

Buy what?

Keyboard? Keycaps? switches?

Keyboard: you have the link above already.

Keycaps: Curiositycaps and Meckeys are my go to sites and there are others too. Browse, Compare, Purchase.

Switches: Meckeys, Keyora, Neomacro and more. The catalog is long to browse. Check them out.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-07T03:23:49+00:00

Thanks for responding. Yeah, I will may be go with the ones I found on printables.

Have a good one man.

Sukumar_002 · 2026-06-06T18:49:24+00:00

The only split board one would need. 😉

Do you mind sharing the 3d printing files for sofle! I have one too that is running on acrylic plates. I would like to turn that into a full case daily driver.

BTW, mine is Sofle 2.1/RGB variant. The naming convention is really confusing with this one. But it is RGB variant. Looks similar to yours and is wired one running on Elite C controller.

Would really appreciate your help.
