Guys, please help. What to choose?
DARK PROJECT Pro KD83A PBT Mech. Gateron Cap Teal  for 105,5$
Or
Keychron V1 with knob for 107,5
Hello Friends, i bought my first MechanicalKeyboard on ebay (it is an Akko ACR59). Sadly, the Key for the Questionmark aint working. I unpinned the key and pushed the button under the regular key (on the board, if you know what i mean), but it just aint working. 
What can i do now. I dont find an option in windows to say that another button should do the questionmark. 
Can someone help. >

It's hotswappable, so you can try removing the switch (presumably it came with a switch puller; this is NOT the same as the keycaps that you already took off, if i am reading your post right) and seeing if it has bent pins/swapping it with a different key's switch.  
There's also probably some AKKO software that will allow you to remap which key does what if all else fails. >

This worked! Thank you! I would have never thought, that it is saved on the single buttons. Holy... Man Thanks! >

How would one fill a hole on a PCB? 
I bought the Maestro TKL with Cherry MX browns by Archisite, a Japanese company.
One problem is the B key feels really clacky and feels like somethings stuck inside. Also only the B key switch is upside down (The Cherry sign is on the bottom). They probably reused the PCB for Quattro, another of their keyboards with a pointing stick, that's why.
I changed keycaps and soldered another brown switch on, it got better but still feels clicky.
But the Quattro keyboard doesn't have this problem, so I suspect it's the gaping hole that they left on the PCB that is the problem.
How would one plug the hole on a PCB board?
It's a circle with a diameter of about 7mm I guess. >

Have you tried the tape mod on the back of the pcb before doing any permanent mods on the board itself? To plug the hole I would try to do something that is reversible. Backing tape and hot glue to fill in the depression. >

my left little finger hurt from playing on my new keychrome K2 with brown switches. I was playing game where left shift is pushed for running all the time, 4mm travel distance and stronger weight than my usual keyboard.  Plus maybe I pushing that key not straight down but with side of finger. 
what do you thing is solution, change the way or strength of pushing or some lighter linear switch? switch with less travel?
It hurt so much next day, I can barely bend it. >

My first thought would be that you might want to rebind that function to some other key that's easier to hit without clawing your finger. You could also try putting an o-ring on the keycap to reduce travel distance I suppose. >

I just heard about O rings yesterday, that would be cheapest solution of all. rebinding key is  problem , I'm so used to run with shift key in every game, that was no problem with low profile membrane  keyboards. >

There are so many popular keycaps that contain
Japanese sub legends, are there any that contain Chinese characters (simplified or traditional) I would like something relatively "high quality" that's super subjective. I myself am new to the scene so I wouldn't know what to exactly look for so please just send recommendation if you guys have any...
For myself personally I speak many Chinese dialects, so as a dedication to my heritage and culture I would just like the Chinese characters rather than the Japanese. Its also refreshing to see something new
Thank you everybody, looking forward to responses! >

I've heard great things about 21kb and their keycaps, so it was kind of nice that they were the first ones I found with Chinese subs. Link here
Here's one that's black on white (manufactured by MW keys apparently. I haven't used any myself, but I have a MW set coming in, and they're pretty reputable.)
And here's a nice GMK one that's white on black with some extras if you want. GMK is famously high quality, but will be more expensive. >

keyboard recommendation please? Looking for something clean and high quality. Doesnt need to be rgb but full size or close to it. Tactile keys. Looking to spend \~$100 as a birthday gift for my brother. >

Keychron V6/V5 >

Hello Everyoneee, I'm trying to mod my space80 keyboard. I've never had this problem before where my stabilizer and my switches are modded, holee mod and lubed but my keycaps will move whenever I press it down, it's like the angle will change when I press down so the thing will turn like maybe 10 20 degree? I'm not sure what problem this is. And it will rattle somehow. I've mod a few other keyboard but never has this problem before. Any suggestion? Or anyone has encounter this problem before? >

This sounds like a problem with the switches and the keycaps. First thing I would check, is that the keycaps are fully seated onto the switches - sometimes they need a lot of effort to get them on correctly if it is a tight fit. Second, if this doesn't work, you can try a second set of keycaps that are different in some manner (different manufacturer, keycap profile, etc.) and see if that makes a difference. I think it's unlikely to be something else - there are a few mismatches between keycaps and switches (it's rare, but it does happen) >

I'm interested in something relatively cheap (<150 CAD) with decent quality, no intention on customization with very light spammable switches like speed switches, preferably in tkl or 70%
any suggestions? >

Not a whole lot that is good comes stock with speed switches, since they tend to have a kinda poor typing experience (hugely prone to typos/mis-presses). You could get a Keychron V1 or V3 with gateron reds from the Canadian store, or a barebones version and add your own switches/keycaps (from the same site to save on shipping if you want). >

Hello! I've never formally made a post on Reddit, so if I'm doing something wrong (or plain Ignorant) I apologize, please let me know! (Yes I checked the Noob Guide)
I am VERY new to building keyboards, and hope to build my first proper one this year! I was hoping the people of this subreddit could possibly guide me towards a Mechanical Keyboard Kit. A few things to note:


I have a small budget, but I am willing to splurge on something that will last awhile.


I would like a case that is black or purple! 


I like big keyboards because I never know what keys I need until I need them. I will go as small as 75%.


Thank you for reading! >

Keychron v6 or q6 >


Keychron v6 or q6

Thank you! I'll check it out >

Currently have an old Ducky One with Cherry MX Brown. Looking to potentially get a new keyboard with hot-swap, full-size, need suggestions. I'm still a total beginner.
(I think I have some idea about the switches I wanna use. Also not looking to build my own quite yet.) >

Keychron v6 or q6 >

Thanks, I'll check both out! >

That vendor is not on alexotos’ vendor list so idk if they are legit. >

it was listed on the meletrix zoom65 official page as an official vendor for south korea though. >

I'm looking to buy a new keyboard and really like de idobao id87 v3 bestype, but have a few questions, I hope someone can help me with:
Is there a iso variant?
Can I use the software to change the keys, I need a German layout?
Is the rgb controllable with their software? With older boards, it wasn't.
And besides that, is there a good ISO case and boars in white with per key rgb? >

AFAIK there’s an ISO of a crystal edition of the id80 v3. If you buy an ANSI board you won’t be able to use German layout strictly speaking because the layout is physically different. You will be able to remap qwerty to qwertz though if that’s enough for you. Since the ID80 is VIA compatible you should be able to change RGB there - not sure what you’re talking about with regards to older boards - I have an id80 v1 and I can change RGB in VIA. 
With regards to white ISO case if you want something readily available I only know of Keychron Q boards but they only come pre assembled in white. >

I am looking to assemble my first Keyboard and wanted to ask if gateron yellows will work with a Flesport Mk870? also which switch films would I use? >

Yes any mx compatable switch will work. It depends upon which variant of the yellows you are using. The newest variant don't need films at all but some of the older ones do need films. >

Thanks. I'm going to use either full milky gateron yellows or the ones with a clear top and black bottom housing. >

Honestly I wouldn't film them >

less work for me lol. What switch films do you use in general? poly carbonate?
also thanks again for your answers. I'm hyped. :D >

Sure, I personally use TX films they are polycarbonate. Although if I'm going for a more muted, deep or quiet sound I'll use Deskeys. It really just depends upon what you want your switches to sound like. >

ok I thought the only difference was thickness. good to know. >

Nope, the Deskeys are pouron foam >

OK, I'm feeling very stuck right now. I'm split between getting a 60% to mod or a Keychron V2 QMK. It sounds like an obvious win to keychron, but I'm very indecisive and need some guidance :) if you have other keeb suggestions surrounding 60-65% keebs, lemme know! >

I would say it largely depends upon your preferences, your budget, and how far into the hobby you are >

Would a D60lite (gasket mount) or something like a Blade60 (with a o-ring mount) feel better? Just trying to know the trade off of different materials and/to different mounting options >

Hi guys, looking for some keyboard advice here and need help narrowing one down, here is what I am looking for:

Hot swappable with 5 pin support
60% size with standard layout
RGB must be good
PBT keycaps included strongly preferred
Wireless preferred but not required
I do not want to build the keyboard, I am just going to swap out the switches and do nothing else

From my own homework, there is no keyboard out there that has everything I want but the Ducky One 3 Mini looks like its the best option for me since it has everything except being wireless. I looked at the Keychron K12 but it comes with ABS keycaps so I would need to replace those for sure and I am not sure if the build quality is better than the ducky or not. The Q4 has really bad RGB from what ive seen in videos so thats a bit of a deal breaker.
Are there any other boards I am missing here or do you guys think I should just pull the trigger on the ducky?
edit: looks like the Steelseries Apex Pro has everything I want but the build quality is not as good as the Ducky (and also the price is really high for what you get), so that is another keyboard to consider >

Newbie Here - Looking for a programmable wireless QMK macropad to use on my Ipad. 
I've been searching for quite some times now and can't really find an answer.
I  want to use a 12 key pad on my ipad for shortcuts and such (if it has a  knob it's great). I understand that for the keyboard to be completely  programmable (and not running through drivers and other softs) it needs  to be QMK. Also, needs to be programmed through a computer, it's not an  issue.
In short, I want to program  macros on the pad through my computer (Alt, space, shortcuts etc) and  simply connect it to my ipad afterward to draw. (I know pads for  procreate exists but I don't use this software, and I prefer real  customization)
I've found some pads on amazon and Aliexpress but I'm not convinced that they're really customizable and programmable...
I  don't really know much about mechanical keyboards firmware and  hardware, but I'm absolutely willing to look more into it as I'm not  completely ignorant tech-wise, or so I think...
Oh, and wireless of course because, you know, less cables is better...
What should I look for ? Any recommendation ?
Also,  I live in France, so I may not have access to some US or Asia  stores/brand without spending way too much money in shipping...
Thank you in advance, I'm starting to loose my mind. >

I'm considering upgrading to a mechanical keyboard but having doubts if it's actually worth the price. Right now I have a membrane 'gaming keyboard' from Bloody that I bought for $20 like 6 years ago, it still works like a charm and I like the feel of the keys, it's not terribly loud either. Is there really a substantial enough difference to be worth spending $80 to upgrade? (I know this might not be the best sub to ask this but still want opinions) >

A keyboard is something you use for many hours a day so it's worth it. The ones like a ducky one 3 are hot swappable too so if you want to change the keys out for something new it's easy to do instead of buying a new keyboard. >

Hi,
I cant find Keychron Q1 Knob ANSI anywhere expect official website. Which will take around a month to deliver to Netherlands I think. And some import tax might also be added and become seriously expensive. 
I am planning on using mostly for gaming and I got Boba U4T's waiting to be shipped.
My other options are:
- GMMK Pro (cheaper, comes in white and I like white)
- Q1 ISO
-Maybe Monsgeek M1 (not sure if readily available on akko germany or being shipped from China) >

Fyi Gmmk pro ice white is silver irl not even close to white. >

yeah I noticed. Pulled the trigger on Q1 White gonna be patient and wait. 400 bucks poorer now.. I hope its worth it. This thing is going to be 6 times more expensive than my current keyboard >

$400? Wtf where did you buy it from? The white pre built is $180 on Keychron website. >

white prebuilt + 100x boba u4t + chicago keycaps  
I aint gonna use gateron reds on a keyboard like that >

Ah fair enough >

I’m looking for an alternative to Gateron Oil Kings that work well with RGB. I was recommended Everglide Aqua King switches but heard their factory lube is atrocious. As there anything else out there that fits the bill? In general, I need a factory lubed “heavier” linear switch that will fill up my RGB pudding caps properly. Thanks! >

A touch lighter, but gateron north poles. You could also spring swap if want it to be heavier. >

Nice. What’s the weight on them? >

hey people, I have a corsair k70 mk2 with mx cherry brown switches which I like. I am old and have used these switches since high school so I like them, I am aware others do not.  I have recently been playing valorant where I have lowered my mouse sensitivity considerably. I am now running into the problem of the keyboard being too large and hitting the side of it with the mouse.  
I want a 60% or so keyboard with mx cherry brown switches I just have no idea where to get them or how to buy. I believe some people solder their own keyboards?? I can solder but don't really want to. Apologies if this request seems stupid but I haven't gamed in about 8  or 9 years and I am trying to learn again. >

Look into the Keychron Q/V4. They don't have cherry mx browns but they do have a brown equivalent. They are hotswap though so no soldering required and you can cherry browns to put in there if you prefer. >

I want to buy the razer bw mini (65%), and there are a bunch of layouts. I found on wiki about the different layouts but theyre for full size?. So if someone has some pics or a website, thank you :) >

Hey i got a new board and keep fat fingering the keys. Granted i have pretty wide finger tips, i was wondering if theres any cap profile that has narrow tops but not as tall as sa? Im using mda currently and i like the height, could even go shorter, but i’m having a tough time really finding anything. Theres just so many odd profiles >

I am looking for 75% split keyboard PCB's that have arrow keys. >

Keebio Sinc and Keebio KBO-5000 >

Do you know if they are nice!nano compatible? >

They are not. >

:( , but thank you for replying >

I'm working on a custom plate for an alps build i'm making, and i've figured out the layout i want, but when i go to paste the raw kle data in a plate builder, all the mods are in a row down the sides and not where they need to be.  Any fixes? >

Hi I’m trying to get a replacement for my spacebar but on my keyboard the switch isn’t placed in the center of where the spacebar is but is slightly to the right, does anyone know the name of this type of spacebar so I can buy the right one? >

I have been looking into mechanical keyboards and I really want to have wireless and qmk/via. Is there anyone else selling 80+% than keychron?
Also is there any universal site to check out keyboards or is it always just looking through all the manufacturers? >

Zoom TKL although I’m not sure if you can still get one. There will be another round in Q2 2022. 
There’s no website that has everything. mechgroupbuys is a good starting point but in my experience that website only has about 50% of all group buys that happen >

I see a lot of people having a liking for 67g tactiles. What would you recommend? Preferably looking for cheaper options since this is sort of an experiment for me. But open to all switches no matter the price, for future reference. >

Boba U4Ts are the tactile switch of the moment, and they come in 62g, 65g, and 68g variants. >


Boba U4T

ayaaaa 65c a switch damn >

So I just got a shiny (literally) new Womier K87 pro keyboard. The RGB looks great but the software is complete shit. No layers or custom selections or anything like that. Plus, I have a roommate so I want to make sure it automatically dims at night. Is there any way to write a custom script for it? Any documentation that you guys know of? Maybe someone has already written some? Thanks! >

Nope it doesn’t support any firmware except the one designed for it >

Recently got my Mammoth 20 and was adding the switches to the PCB when one of the hot swap socket connections popped off. From the looks of it, it's the pad itself along with a little bit of the PCB. After some google-fu, I'll have to glue the pad back on then solder a new wire connection? Is that right? I need reddit's help. >

Yup, glue it back in place and solder a wire from the metal on the socket to the end of the diode right next to it (where the trace was leading) >

Looking for a new keyboard case. What should I get? I'm looking at the Keychron Q2, only thing really stopping me from maybe getting it now is the price. And what's the difference between the Q2 and V2? Seems like the V2 has different stabs and slightly different case. Are those the only differences and are they really enough to justify the Q2 being like $100 more expensive?
And then I'm also considering the Keychron K6 Pro. This one looks nice and isn't super expensive. Was also looking at the Akko Mod 008 but I think I like the look of these a little more. Also I kinda wanna try south facing LEDs. >

Q2 is Aluminium and has a gasket structure making for a softer and more consistent typing feel. V2 doesn’t have either of these 2 features. 
Mod 008 is also great btw - have one and I love it >

Does anyone know of a set of keycaps with the side printed HHKB function layer for mx style switches? I rarely use certain keys in the function  layer, so it's nice to have a quick reference when I need one of them. >

function layer keycaps are exclusive to the kb they come with u wont find after market ones as no 2 kbs function layers are the same even 2 kbs that use the hhkb layout will have different function layer shortcuts making the keycaps pretty much useless >

Looking for a new keyboard to get the thocky sound. I've never done custom keyboards before. I have a Ducky One 2 TKL RGB with MX Browns. Since those are tactile, I may want linear switches for this board with a thocky sound.
What are some good linear switches? I heard Gateron Yellows are good.
Where can I buy lubed switches? Not sure if I want to spend all that time lubing switches.
What keyboard do you guys recommend? I think I like the 75% keyboard layout, as seen in the Keychron V1 or Q1. But if there are other boards that look similar that I'm not aware of, please let me know. And what mods would I be able to try with them?
Budget is around 250 >

If you can wait, QK75 will probably have extras in late Q1 2023. Zoom75 will likely go into groupbuy during that time as well. There is also the Keychron Q1 Pro coming soon.
For stuff in stock, probably go for the Keychron Q1v2/V2. There are some Akko boards as well as the Monsgeek M1, but I don't know if those are good boards.
I've heard good things about Gateron CJs and Oil Kings, if you want linears with good factory lube. >

Hey thanks for typing that out. I really appreciate it.
The Keychron Q1V2 is all metal. Is this ideal for a thock sound? Or should I find something with a different material? I do plan on modding my board when I can. >

Thank you!! >

Does anyone have any good recommendations for keycaps that would look good with a white keyboard? I'm getting a white Akko ACR 75 v2 but I am having problems with finding a good keycap set. I want to go with some darker colors and I'm open to group buys >

Anybody know of a full or 96% southpaw (left-handed) board right now? I’m not even left handed but the numpad being on the left side of the board just makes so much more sense to me. >

This is my first time actually looking for a new keyboard and I can't seem to find a prebuilt kb (or custom really) with all these specifics:
Wireless|
Custom lighting|
Concave caps|
Quiet switches (silent red?)|
100% layout|
I found the ducky shine 7 but I don't think it's wireless.
I have a blackwidow ultimate right now but I just want it to be better. One less wire to mess with and not so loud keys. :(
If I have to build it I will, just my biggest problem is finding wireless for..."couch" gaming. >

Hello there, I'm having a bit of trouble finding the right switch for my first build (RK61). I'm currently stuck between the options of Gateron Oil Kings and the CJs. I'd personally prefer the Oil Kings for sound and CJs for feel, but I'm very indecisive on what to spend my money on. I sometimes do a little bit of gaming and would usually prefer RGB. Any thoughts? >

I'd go for the CJs as there won't be big difference in sound because of your board. >

You put the top housing on the wrong way. It's likely that you also messed up the leaves due to this as well. >

Hi all,
So the pcb in my TX60 has gone haywire, unsure how to describe it other than the key presses are not what they are supposed to be.
For example, when I press the A key I get Volume Up, S key is Volume down etc.
Don't have many details on the pcb, except that it is a "SPRiT Edition".
Any ideas on how I might reset this pcb? or is it cooked?
Thanks! >

Hi! I’m very new to mechanical keyboards and I need help getting my first one. I am looking for linear switches and 60%.My budget is 100 dollars but I am willing to go over the budget if the keyboard will last. Thanks for the help! >

Keychron V4 >

Good blank keycaps set? >

DCS blanks. >

Hey! Looking for some cheap baseplates, does anyone know any decent quality baseplates for (preferably) under 100? >

by baseplate what exactly are you looking for? do you mean a barebones board? If that’s the case, you can check out the Keychron V-line of boards, they have a large variety of layouts and options. >

I have been searching keyboards for days now. I’m hoping someone can just narrow my search down for me because I’m tired of looking. This is what I’m looking for:
•   ⁠Maximum of 15” width. A keyboard without the numpad is fine, but a keyboard without the arrow keys will not work.
•   ⁠Must be wireless and be able to handle two devices.
•   ⁠Very strong preference for RGB.

Very strong preference for low profile/thin keys.

•   ⁠Aluminum body preferred, but not stuck on it.
•   ⁠Budget ideally $100, but can go up to $150.
•   ⁠I don’t care about any other details if they weren’t mentioned above. >

Maybe check out NuPhy Air 60/75 >

My caps lock light is on when typing in lower case. What is going wrong? >

im getting an nk87 ee and i want to put case foam to dampen, but i know it comes with a silicone pad inside, i am thinking of eva foam or neoprene or sorbothane, price is not an issue i just want a deep and creamt sounding keyboard with no high pitched sounds. >

stupidfish has nk87 foam I believe >

How many layers of tape for Keychron q? Looking for a marbly deeper sound. I can’t really tell the difference audibly between 1 layers and 3. Has anyone ever measured the sound frequencies for this mods? >

What gives the most flex: Poron or Silicone? 
I have a Tofu60 mounted with O-rings (1.5mm width), but I still find the typing feel could be a little more forgiving. I was thinking about getting a 2mm-ish poron foam sheet and DYI-ing a Poron Ring gasket. Will it give more flex? >

Looking for a budget keeb with these features:
-   75% Layout
-   CNC Aluminum Body
-   Knob
-   2.4ghz wireless
-   Hot Swap
-   Ideally prebuilt option available
I came across the Keychron Q1 V1, it ticks off all boxes except wireless mode. Shipped to my place (Germany) it’d cost me $210, which is a little bit pricey for me – am I looking for a unicorn or is this the best option I have?
Does anyone know about the price of the upcoming Keychron Q1 Pro? I’d love to get that one but no idea when they will release that since they are only about the start a Kickstarter campaign in January 23. >


2.4ghz wireless

this is closed source tech and only found on cheap low quality Chinese kbs or "gamer "brands . if ur wanting this for gaming just go wired it beats wireless everytime >

At that price point, you kind of just pick what looks good to you. Boards at that price range could work for a very long time or start having problems a year in. >

So I recently lubed all my cherry reds for my keyboard and after I was done two of the switches wasn’t working (I had extras so it’s ok) but I am now wondering what it could have been that made them stop working. 
It was also my first time lubing switches. >

Possibly if you had trouble putting them back together (accidentally tried putting the top housing on backwards first, stem not aligned etc), that could have put too much force on the leaf and bent it such that the stem doesn't push it into making the correct contact. >

That sounds very possible. Is there any way to fix that? >

Possibly? With like some tweezers and such and just bending it back to the right shape maybe? But I don't know enough about the delicate part of switch acutation to know if maybe some small things broke or if the leaf has to be very precise to work etc.
No harm in trying though, if they don't work already. >

What is a good Made in America Mechanical Keyboard brand? I was looking at the Keychron C1 before noticing the made in China sticker. >

Keycult. Prepare to splash out around $2k if you want one straight away as they are only available aftermarket atm. Otherwise you could get some vintage kbs but that’s not to say they are cheap. 
Most keyboards even super high end that go for over $500 are made in China as this hobby originated in Asia. >

what do you think is the best prebuilt keyboard atm regardless of their price? list the mechanical goats measuring by their quality and components >

In your opinion, what is the cheapest/easiest mod to smoothen the sound of linear switches? >

Lube stem legs and leaves >

do replaceable pcbs exist for the keychron k8? i want to switch to mechanical instead of my optical, but I don't know if they have them. I doubt they do but I'm not sure >

Nope. Your only choice to ask Keychron. >

Does anyone have a comparison of tecsee purple pandas vs gateron baby kangaroos? 
I have an option to get a board with either of these. >

Baby Kangaroos are a better switch by a mile. >

Hey guys! I’m new to mechanical keyboards and don’t know what to get. I am looking for 60%, linear switches, and I don’t have a budget as of right now. Thank you for the support! >

I'm going to assume that by no budget, you mean you need start cheaper. All of these recommendations are complete kits that can be customized. Also, if you need wireless, I think one or two of these have that. I'm not going to recommend using a keyboard wireless though, since bluetooth and the like can be very unreliable on keyboards.
​
Keychron V4 with red switches, fully built around $85 USD [great value]
RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 with red switches around $50 USD [decent; a lot of people's first customizable keyboard]
Akko 3068S 65%; It's in the same price range, but 65%. I'm adding this to the list because you can get this will their Jelly Pink switches which will probably feel a little better than red switches. >

Ok, I will look into those options! Thanks for the help! >

where can i find wob double-shot PBT KAT keycaps >

I don't think they exist. Keyreative had a lot of issues with their double shot process and is pretty behind on sets. For example, the first double shot set they've put out is KAT Atlantis. The group buy for that was in March 2020. I believe it finally delivered in June 2022. >

Interested in upgrading my keyboard. Don’t have a ton of time to build anything custom. What would be the best prebuilt that’s available on Amazon ? 
Thanks. >

Amazon in which country? >

USA >

Probably get a Keychron Q (fancy metal) or V (plastic) series board then. Q1, Q3, Q5, Q6, Q2 (or V equivalent) etc depending on the layout you want. >

Hey!  
Will the FR4 KBD67 LITE R3 PLATE - HYPE KEYBOARDS work on a KBD67 lite r4? >

considering the R4 PCB is officially compatible with the R3 Case, I’m gonna say that R3 Plates will work in the R4 case as well. However, I couldn’t find anything directly confirming this. >

Has any tried switching keycaps from old ps2 keyboard? I'm trying a vintage/classic look for my setup and I'm thinking of buying some old ps2 keyboards... >

I assume you mean the IBM PS/2? That’s a Model M keyboard and its keycaps will not fit modern switches. The inside of them is smooth with nothing to attach to the stem. >

You should probably get the idea of keyboard upgrades out of your head. There generally aren't many significant differences between the gamer brand keyboards for the most part. Neither of the keyboards you mention would be much different from the Logitech G Pro that you already have.
