    Phanteks/Seasonic RMA turnaround time

    I purchased a Phanteks AMP PSU for a build recently. I've been out of the basic parts loop for quite some time, having only used or purchased Seasonic, Corsair or EVGA, but in the last 4 months, parts availability at anywhere close to MSRP has been a challenge. So, I had no idea about...

    DAS Pro4 replacement caps options

    What are the options for replacement caps for the DAS Professional 4? I've almost worn off my WASD and L-shift from just over 1 year and 1 week of use. Its just the OCD bugging me, I don't need to see the lettering, but dammitt, this is a premium keyboard (or so I thought).
