Bottom ring LED aren't very diffused and broke in exactly 29 days after usage.
It is, and rather was my main keyboard I've ordered recently and really enjoyed the feel and sound up until the LEDs no longer worked at ALL even after resetting via the button under the space bar, configurator, and fn key reset. The LEDs turned off completely, and when I messaged DROP about it they said nothing they could do until I sent in my keyboard now, but I'd be without a keyboard at my current location. I could understand possibly holding a deposit or charging me full for another board if I didn't return the broken keyboard after a set amount of time, but at this point they are basically saying the inconvenience of not having a board at all is the only solution when they sent me a broken item. Unfortunately as it stands I can't recommend this at all with how poor of a build quality it is, and well there are plenty of other custom keyboard websites popping up this encounter has left a pretty poor taste in my mouth and will probably be my last time purchasing from DROP since there is no other solution then to buy a new temp board (which to some might not be a feasible solution since this board is $170-200 pre-tax.) However for me it's more the principle of how this was handled.
VIIIVIIIXCIHave you tried Boot Magic? You can do that by unplugging your keyboard and hold down the ESC key. After that re-plug in your keyboard and see if that fixes the LED issue.
Great, solid keyboard with above average RGB show off
Disclaimer: it's my first custom keyboard but not a first keyboard in my life: I'm using them daily since 1990. Anyway, in short, It's A+ for everything. Tactile switches are a bit louder than I expected but that's personal preference. The only thing I'd wish for would be a full size option with ISO layout. Other than than, it's brilliant.
Extremely sturdy. Super well packaged and arrived quickly. The gateron yellow switches sound great and the space gray color looks sleek. The rgb lights look fantastic.
