Cooler Master releases their first mechanical keyboards using the elusive Cherry MX Low Profile RGB switches. The SK630 is a TKL form factor keyboard built with portability in mind that retains a strong configuration over function and form alike via both software driver support and onboard controls.

Low profile and no numpad? Love it. Perhaps it's time to replace my Corsair K65 since LEDs has started failing one after another.

Not quite what ive been waiting for... a year...
The flat and square caps are already by the looks uncomfortable, and so is the fixed height, and no palm rest.
I hope the non-TKL (or some) version gets more "care".
So i like the flat design, and short key travels, but not this way...

This won't take third party keycaps will it?
Most should fit, it's still the same Cherry MX stem. I think increased compatibility will be with keycaps that are made with Kailh BOX switches in mind, since those have a square wall around the stem and this has a circle. Not sure though, I don't have aftermarket sets here.

I don't know for sure but I would be worried that normal keycaps would be too tall for these switches.

Good point, there's 3.2 mm of travel but that might be a limitation still.
