Fair warning though custom cap sets from GMK, SP, etc. If you have your heart set on something more colorful you're gonna have to find a group buy for a custom key cap set with a colorway you like. Other than that though they are really nice caps for a really good price. Also because of this the any keys with 2 legends such as the number & F rows will have one legend shining way brighter than the other depending on the LED orientation on your switches. If the LEDs are mounted at the bottom of your switches the LED shine through on the legends will be pretty poor, not sure if the keys were made that way or if it is a quirk of the manufacturing process but they seem to be made for switches that have top mounted LEDs. They are pretty good quality especially for the price but they do have a few drawbacks. ![]() I own an older black set of these that was just a 104 key standard set. Those sets won't get you color customization but are PBT/POM double shots, fairly thick, & have translucent legends for the backlighting of your KB. I did some digging around & the only 2 sets I could find that come with the 6.5u spacebar & 1u modifiers needed for your board are, & Click to expand.No, unfortunately since Corsair had to be different & made the bottom row (spacebar row) non standard on their mech KBs there are very few sets you can just go out & buy that will cover your whole board.
