First post here, saw a good deal (imo) and decided I'd share it.
The Gamdias Hermes Lite version of this keyboard was posted here a few days ago at £55 something. The Ultimate version is cheaper (comes with a detachable wrist rest and 13 macro keys compared to the lite version).
These are the MX blue switches and IIRC, they come with removable O pads to dampen the sound. If you aren't keen on them, easy to take out with the provided key remover tool.

I'm thinking of getting this deal. Does anybody have any experience with this keyboard and/or CCL?
Voted hot nevertheless, it's £25 more on Amazon.

Ccl were really good for when I bought my case from them. Free delivery arrived within a day and customer support was top notch. They offered to replace after I broke a USB port on it.

CCL not too bad, had 2 cases off them, first one panel was broken, 2nd one, same problem, think it was supplier issue, they were more than happy to replace the whole case for free!

Nice one. If this is your first mech then be prepared to spend a few hours mashing keys for the sound and feel alone.

Nice find. Had the lite version a month ago and happy with it. Only negative is quite noisy however at home would not bother too many people.

Don't the O rings help with the noise or are they pretty rubbish (haven't purchased this particular keyboard).

If you are referring to the click of the blue keys, then some people who love their keyboards find this reassuring as it gives them positive feedback. The old IBM PS keyboards had this trait and are highly sought after.

I do that still and I got my first mechanical keyboard back in 2013 :stuck_out_tongue:

I had a K70 RGB before with Cherry MX Reds. However, after four replacements because the LEDs kept failing, I had to get a refund. I loved it so much. :disappointed:
