There is a high pitched noise coming out of my headphones when the keyboard's leds in rgb mode, specially using fully rbg profile and blue/pink profile. But when the leds are off or using the all white profile, it does not have that sound. Any idea how to fix that?
This is how it sounds like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJxlNDliSUs

ivandatuI have this issue too! I think it just started in the last couple days for me. I've had the board for about 2 weeks, and I don't think I would've gone the whole first week without noticing it

JakePetroI also use this keyboard with my office laptop to code. At first, I didn't notice it and I thought it only happens in my home gaming pc. But if i put my ear close to the keyboard, i can hear the sound coming out directly from the keyboard. Not from the laptop speaker nor the headphone, but directly from the keyboard.

ivandatuHuh, I think we may have different issues then actually. After further looking into my issue , I realized my sound wasn't coming directly from my keyboard, but a ugreen peripheral switch hub I use to switch between my laptop and desktop. Even with an external power supply for the USB switcher, the power draw of the keyboard with the brightness medium-high was too much. Sorry for the confusion on your issue of sound coming directly from the keyboard, good luck figuring it out!

*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

Want to build a Clicky Mech Keyboard. Where to begin?
Hello all. Am brand new to the idea of building my own keyboard. Have not a clue where to begin this process. I am a Sim Game enthusiast. American Truck Sim, DCS Flight Sim and goes from there. Need some real help on where to start for making my own Full Size, Clickey Mechanical KB. I want each key to have its own backlighting. Are there keys that are better than others for this? Is there a great spot on site for a person who has never even taken a keyboard apart? Let alone fixed or built one? I would like it to fit my theme of Red and Black. Yet maybe have the option of changing things up a bit. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all kindly, Durazell

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?
