can I change the switches on these? I may change to zeal switches, might not have RGB top lighting but at least underflow lighting, yeah?

If you're willing to build it yourself, the Zeal 60 (which drops on occasion https://www.massdrop.com/buy/zealpc-r2-zeal60-rgb-led-pcb) can be modded very cheaply to create independently programmable underlighting. When my caps arrive, it's one of my next projects. https://github.com/Wilba6582/qmk_firmware/tree/zeal60/keyboards/zeal60/keymaps/tusing

Just updating my reply to say I was misinformed. These do have some independent RGB underglow LEDs. You can see one picture of the black board where the top glow is on and the bottom is off.

It's a shame I have to pass on so many great keyboards because people refuse to switch to USB-C in 2019

I know which color and switch I want but having trouble choosing the acrylic layer.. I feel like getting black would be nice because it'd absorb some of the RGB lighting creating a softer RGB glow, blue would have a more exotic feel though I don't know how it'd mix with RGB lighting, and Frosted would just amplify RGB lighting I think.
Someone help me pick?

Indeed, if they kept the frameless design I would have joined in a heart beat and that vortex logo is kinda ruining it for me also

It's only saving $10... It is a very nice looking keyboard, but I would be wanting to save more money...

it does look sexy as hell.. but to be honest i'm passing this one.. why would i pay $160 plust $7 shipping Plus $53 customs/vat if i can get something that is fully programmable with QMK as an option for $99...Vortex really need to up their game and add full program ability not just layers.. and be compatible with QMK. i guess that's why MD now has their own boards like the CTRL..

TuxKeyAs much as I feel your pain on customs and excessive tax, you can't reasonably put that on anything else but your government. Nothing against you, I'm genuinely sorry for those in your position that are priced out of something they'd otherwise afford/enjoy. It's just tiring seeing comment after comment of people complaining about customs/VAT like Massdrop are intentionally putting that unfair burden on them.

Claridever heard the saying “All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”
i realize this is not the place to start such a philosophical subject as this is not nor shall it ever be as important as many other things in life.. But like Larken Rose says Government doesn't exist. if we would all stand up against it what chance will the few brainwashed have ?
Living in the EU specifically in The Netherlands i have on several occasion bought from the US and few times people in the US (i won't name companies here) have helped out by avoiding customs not because of me in fact they did it for several other people in EU i have spoken to.
Other companies have found solutions by shipping items to the UK and Ireland having warehouses in Poland you name it i seen it all. This does cost them more $$ and so not all companies do this.. And i'm not asking them to.. in fact if i badly want something or need something i will buy it and suck it up.. like i buy my care products from sterlingSoap all the way in the US.
Few months ago i would have told you in don't give a crap about MD and a few weeks ago i heard the awesome work MD is doing by porting the work their doing on QMK back to the community as far as i'm concerned that's the best news i have heard this year. i also realize they are doing this because it serves them now there is also a long term self interest. Nevertheless there are lots of others that don't have this foresight.
Having said all that at the end of the day.. if en when i see something that looks good but people in the EU can get a better deal on in my opinion i won't hesitate to mention it.
And as Leo of actualized.org likes to say we all have an ego and sum times it's just good to recognize that and leave everyone be.. live and let live..
Perhaps your right complaining is tiring and i'm sorry you have to read true that all the time.. my apologies for that.. yest two days ago i bought $200 of keyboard hardware for a nice build project without any tariffs... so i'm all good , and voting with my wallet. btw i probably paid enough tariffs in my life to pay twice for this board.. only on the k-type i paid an extra $50 just saying..
Take care.

Does anyone know if this would fit other 60% board cases? Also my brother has one coming in soon that he ordered from mechanicalkeyboards.com. If anyone would like pictures let me know and I'll upload them. He ordered the black keyboard with frosted acrylics. Also, I would like to put this in one of sentraq acrylic cases but I'm sure if it would fit or look that good.

It does not have under glow LEDs. The case is designed so the key back light shines through the acrylic band.

Is not it possible to replace it with a cherry profile keycap because of the rgb switch built into this keyboard?
Is there an interference with RGB switch and cherry profile keycap?
Is there a way to apply a cherry profile keycap if it happens? And what is the keycap profile to avoid that interference?
