I have a slight problem with my keyboard. There is this thing that happens in games when I hold down a key to try and go forward it just doesn't act right. It's kind of hard to explain but it makes my game act as though I'm clicking the key again and again to go forward and it's not very smooth (this doesn't happen with my other keyboard). I don't know how to fix this or really explain it but maybe someone can help me? I have the typewriter key caps also.
I believe I can help you with that. My board still haven't showed up but I've been reading more posts similiar to yours.
This have something to do with the keyboard repeating rate. Decrease the repeating rate and that "issue" will go ayway. :)
It's not a problem with the keyboard per se and it should be easily fixable. Good luck and get back to us if this worked for you please.
Yeah I tried to go into the keyboards settings and put the repeat rate on the slowest setting. Unfortunately though it didn't fix it. But thanks for the help anyways.
It's a functionality of the keyboard, has nothing to do with any setting outside of it. Please refer to this post on all available functions which come with this board: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/470asq/magicforce_68_english_guide/
To answer your question, Fn + W has the lowest polling rate and should be fine for typing. Feel free to increase it with Fn + E or R if you need a higher polling rate (usually for games, so @BrieSan should press Fn + E or R to solve his/her issue).

Came home to see my board delivered today. Kind of a shame that 1~2 switches' stems seem to be off in terms of quality (keycaps are very loose on them), but I'll blame those awful stock keycaps instead of Gateron. No keycaps option in the future maybe? Other than that, it's a nifty keyboard for the price, which I'm sure has been regurgitated several times over already. Bought these to try out Gateron Clears, but I can see myself messing around with this one the most in terms of trying new switches out in the future. Temporarily slapped on Miami keycaps. Plain ol' white LEDs, though they do have a bit more flair to them with this keyset's colors. Please pardon my potato quality photo.
