An acrylic/poly case with RGB underglow is the one thing ive always wanted to try, they just look amazing when lit up.
But yeah, unfortunately the noxary PCB is far from a standard PCB in both the footprint (length/width) being slimmer than normal, just like the Zeal 60. Notice how there isnt even enough room to have the stabilizer holes fully surrounded by the PCB material on both. Additionally, the noxary PCB has an extended USB C port that goes out a few mm further than a standard port in order to be flush with the UCB C hole on the case. There are still a few issues when using the Zeal 60 in the X60 R case, but I was able to get around that problem by finding these USB C cables that have really long plugs, as well as taking a dremel to the inside of the case. Google USB C 10mm extended long tip and you will see them, they look kind of funny, but that was the only way I can make this setup work.
That leaves me with the ultimate gaming keyboard in my eyes, if there is such a thing as a gaming keyboard. WKL so I never hit the windows key and have a larger control key for more comfort when crouching in games, RGB backlighting so I can see the keyboard better in the dark, remapping of course, and the Z60 R has just about the lowest front edge to any custom keyboard out there which makes it a lot more comfortable for gaming especially when paired with DSA keycaps.
HPE1000Damn...thats so sad to hear.I really thought it would be standard.
Did you check r/mechmarket to see if someone has an extra PCB?
You can try this also for the Zeal60 all though...aftermarket prices!
Or maybe even a scuffed one.
I don't think there is such thing as THE gaming keyboard or THE perfect keybaord for everyone,
because at the end it is a question of taste and preference.
I think we should wait till some new stuff comes out this year.
It's bad timing with all this Covid situation.
I personally think i'll go with the Rama (Wilba) Thermal.
Has even RGB per key.
I really like the leaf spring top mount.
And i really love the design a lot.
$120 for a PCB, and they cannot even put it in something to protect it during shipping? Seriously, all we got was a padded envelope and 3 wraps of bubble wrap - nothing rigid to prevent any other damage.

dougpDid it come damaged? Or have there been a lot of reports of it being delivered damaged? Because if there hasn't been, I don't see the need to add additional package protection, increases the cost of the item even more.
Pulled the trigger last night on this bad larry.
Next step is finding a case and plate while this board ships.
Any recommendations of a "floating keys" style case?
