I'm using Boba U4s at home and enjoying them, but I'm looking to build something new for work and I'm assessing my options.

Durock shrimps are on my radar. I've enjoyed Zealios in the past, but it seems like the consensus is that Zilents actually aren't that Zilent because of up-stroke noise.

Is there anything else I should consider? Also not opposed to some switch mods or franken switches.

That's a genius idea. How much were the switches? I'm thinking about doing something like this for my next board, it'd be a 75%.

I daily a 96 so I probably spent about $120 on 220 switches.

That's not too bad TBH, so, id say 80-ish then. Can you send where you got the switches from?

When I get home tomorrow I will look it up but I think it was an AliExpress vendor.

Oh, well I don't want to wait forever for my switches, so I'll find them elsewhere.
