Right, that's me ;-) So now and then if you sit in the "wrong" angle, you can see the LED's directly between the keycaps shine in your face. Bought myself an EPOMAKER EK68 for fun, also to test what i do like and do not like. I also forgot that there's no right Ctrl key, so i can't crouch anymore lol. So it's not usable for first person shooters for me as well, but this Asus looks actually nice and has a right Shift and Ctrl key with a bit of space between the arrow keys and those keys so that's good. North facing LED's and shine through keycaps another plus.

Key legends aligned to the top of the cap was the standard for like, ever.. but now there are so many variants which are more centred, and with doubleshot you can even have centred shine through legends right over the stem. On top of that, side legends are also gaining popularity somewhat where the top is blank and south facing LEDs would allow for shine through side legends which would just be dope

While north facing is the default for gaming oriented boards, which make a lot of sense for that demographic, south facing is absolutely the default for enthusiast boards. And decent shine through caps are rare, especially for non standard layouts. Decent side lit keycaps are even rarer. I have yet to encounter a side lit set which doesn't suck in one form or another. Plus, there's plenty interesting switch options which don't suffer north facing interference with cherry profile caps. And there's plenty interesting profiles besides cherry which won't cause interference in any case.

Doesn't mean it won't fit any aftermarket keycaps set, after all there are still exquisite colorway/theme that aren't only available in cherry profile. All in all they're going good and wish other big mainstream peripherals brand can follow suit.

  • So, the problem isn't north-facing LEDs, it's that the switch molds aren't always designed to make Cherry keycaps compatible with NFLEDs. There's no good reason for this, as there are many switches that don't experience that problem, like Epomaker's Flamingo, Budgerigar, and Sea Salt Silent switches. It literally just takes a slightest slope on the LED-side of the switch. Or a longer stem (like, maybe half a millimeter, if that). There is no good reason for any new switch not to avoid interference with Cherry keycaps.

      @a55tech@a55tech5 ай бұрын
    • @@a55techNo, but that's a good question! Cherry interference refers to the fact that Cherry keycaps, particularly in the "home row," (A through Enter in the alphanumeric section), when placed on a switch on a board whose LEDs are north-facing, will sometimes impact the switch housing itself before fully bottoming out. This is because of the way the "standard" switch housing was molded for a long time. It often results in a clacky sound as well as being rather easily felt compared to the other keys. So, my point was, if you use slightly longer stems that aren't flush with the housing when bottomed out, or if the housing on the LED-side is sloped a little more than the "standard" was for a long time, such interference can be quite easily avoided, making the north-south distinction a matter of personal preference rather than one being "better" than the other.

    • all gateron switches have a slight indentation in the top housing to prevent interference. rather than getting mad at north facing pcbs, which are objectively better for people who like shine thru caps, we should be directing that anger at switch manufacturers for being lazy and not adapting the way gateron and others have

Kept thinking "Why the hell do i keep strafing occasionally while running forward". Took a bit to realize. Keyboard in question is the Glorious GMMK2 with its factory Glorious Fox linear switches. Replaced the switches with some Gateron Green clickys, and it's SOOOOO much nicer feeling.

    • @@valadi7698 I'm basically always using it, and ergonomically this already makes sense for my setup. I'm not chucking my mouse around in FPS games, so I just have this and a normal mousepad set up. I tried the numpad thing with a 75% keyboard before I got a 96%, and it just became an extra thing that existed on my desk and would get moved around more than it should.

I’ve been eyeing the Asus Azoth & the iQunix ZX75 Dark Side. I guess my question is what’s the best silent switches you would recommend for either?

    • I mean, I will be using it to play StarCraft 2. Although, I really hate the "gamer" aesthetic that ASUS puts on literally everything that has the ROG logo on it. The only thing I really don't like about the Keychron boards is the lack of 2.4Ghz wireless connectivity. Leaving it wired isn't the end of the world though, so I would just rather have the better/more premium overall board. Seems like that would be the Q1. Probably will just get that and find some highly rated pre-lubed switches, and eventually find some keycaps I like more. Thanks for the replies guys. :)

  • I have the ASUS Azoth with the SNOW switches. I LOVE the feel of typing on these SNOW switches, but for some reason the Azoth doesn't sound quite as good as the Strix Scope II despite being a significantly more expensive board. What do you suppose accounts for the difference? I think perhaps there is too much foam inside the Azoth.

  • Did you ever look at where the legends are on your keycaps? They're on the north side of the switch. So it may. It seems kind of asinine to have LEDs and the opposite side of where they're needed. I don't like one of your switches so there's that, I prefer tactile. The 2.4 GHz is fine as long as you love plugging in your keyboard all the time to charge it so I don't see a point to it, especially if you're going to run RGB.

But then I want wireless for flexability so really no perfect keyboard and I hate swapping keyboards for different things. For the the Keychron Q3 is my daily driver and I really enjoy it, but a bit "worried" about latency and I do not have wireless for when I am doing techy stuff like working on servers where Bluetooth is not an option, need the USB dongle.
