This is US, but this meets what you are looking for. If you want hotswap because you plan on switching out the switches one day, spend a little more. Trust me.

Hello all, I’ve checked the wiki to make sure nobody has already reviewed this board. I’m interested in buying a hot-swappable %60 budget board. This will be my first mechanical board, and I have a relatively low budget. I’m curious if anybody has experience with the Royal Kludge RK61 regarding customizability and software UX.

Maybe this one – https://www.amazon.com/RK-ROYAL-KLUDGE-Ultra-Compact-Switch-White/dp/B0832CZNS5?th=1

Those caps will work with any 60% that is “standard ANSI” layout. That link even mentions some boards in the title “GH60 RK61/ALT61/Annie/poker GK61 GK64 (Sakura 1)”. GH60, RK61, ALT61, AnnePro, Poker, GK61, GK64, those are all keyboard models. A google search would be your friend there. Good luck! I think your partner will really love it!

Had to look it up. My friend has one like this and it click-clacks to my satisfaction as well.

I found another redditor claiming they changed their Ducky One 2 Mini PCB to a DZ60 and it fit well. https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/hg7d35/ducky_one_2_mini_compatible_pcbs/g8mhajh?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

However do note that just the PCB will be around $40 and it will require a lot of work desoldering every single switch out of the broken one first. I also can’t guarantee that it will fit, since different PCB’s have different placements for USB cables etc.

If you’re from the US, this keyboard would be a solid budget mechanical keyboard with pretty much the same features as the ducky. It’s $53 right now, so barely more expensive than the replacement PCB.

​

edit: also some switches could even be broken on the ducky

Got my gf this board as a way to get her into the hobby. She loves it and already wants to upgrade to a “nice” one. But this makes a great starter. The only thing is the case looks a bit thin and cheap. But with this, you can see what you like and practice lubing and foaming and modding just like a “nice” board.

The RK 61 is fantastic I’ve had it for months and I’ve heard it’s better than Annes
