Hey everyone,

​I’m finally making the jump from my trusty old A4Tech KRS-85 membrane keyboard to a mechanical setup, kaso I’ve hit a major roadblock sa typing experience.

​Because I use my keyboard heavily for overnight work shifts and fast-paced gaming (mostly Valorant, Dota 2, and The Binding of Isaac), I rely a lot on muscle memory and sliding my fingers quickly across the board.

​Ang problem is, standard mechanical keycaps (like OEM or Cherry) are just too tall for me. When I press a key, my finger sinks so deep into the board na para siyang nag-c-create ng "crater." Kapag I try to quickly glide my hand to hit the next key or fire off an ability, my pressed finger ends up slamming into the plastic walls ng mga surrounding unpressed keys.

​I’m planning to build on a tight 96% layout (1800 compact) para ma-keep ko yung numpad for work while saving mouse space, but I desperately need to swap out the standard keycaps to fix this deep-sinking issue.

​Thanks in advance!
