These company and community names sound alike and are often associated with one another. What are the differences?
- Vortex (full name Vortex Gear) is a Korean keyboard manufacturer most known for producing the Poker II and upcoming Poker III (POK3R) 60% keyboards. Many of Vortex’s keyboards were originally designed by KBT and KBC community members, which is why you often see keyboards branded as “KBT Vortex” or “KBC Vortex.” Although Vortex is registered in Korea, it appears to have operations in Taiwan and its products are made in China. English news can be found on Vortex’s Facebook page.
- Tex is a Taiwanese keyboard company that’s released the Tex Yoda and Tex Beetle. Tex has no relationship with Vortex.
- KBT is short for KBTalking, a Taiwanese keyboard forum. Keyboards like the Vortex KBT Pure and Vortex KBT Race were designed by members of the KBT community and produced by Vortex.
- KBC is (or was, as both its websites are now defunct) a Chinese keyboard forum. Imsto, a community member known for producing dyesub PBT caps, is associated with KBC. Keyboards like the KBC Poker X and KBC Poker II were designed by members of the KBC community and produced by Vortex.
- KBP is short for KBParadise, a new keyboard company based in Taiwan. KBP appears to be associated with community member Justin Wu, who has also worked with Tex. English updates are posted to KBParadise’s Facebook page. KBP sounds like KBT and KBC, but has no known association with them (or Vortex).

The New Poker II is a true 60% mechanical keyboard with real-time macro programming. iKBC removed all the non-essential keys and shifted their functionality to another layer within the keyboard, the keyboard has 3 fully programmable layers. The result is a compact, aesthetically pleasing and highly functional keyboard. The New Poker II also features a new USB Type-C connector, it is ready to be plugged in the most recent computers and displays.
No Sacrifice
Even though the New Poker II is 40% smaller than a normal keyboard, nothing has been sacrificed in the shrinking process. The extra keys like arrow keys and the function row are accessible on a secondary function layer. Hold down the Fn key and “3” becomes 'F3', hold down Fn key and “A” becomes “left arrow” etc.
Cherry MX Switches
For a unique and enjoyable typing experience iKBC has equipped the New Poker II with Cherry MX Switches, available in Red, Black, Brown and Blue. Cherry MX switches ensure the system for up to 50 million operations, so your keyboard will never let you down.
Unlimited Customization
This keyboard is fully programmable via hardware so no software is needed, just plug it in and start building macros. Since all of the programming happens on the keyboard, you can plug it into any computer and take your custom layouts wherever you go, all settings are saved on the onboard memory.
Here's an example of customization:
If you want to program A as 123 starts by entering the programming mode by pressing FN + Right CTRL then the A key, then 1,2,3 and finish by pressing PN. At this point you can continue to program macros or end the programming mode, if you wish to continue programming, for example set FN + A to register 456, press FN + A then 4,5,6 and finish by pressing PN. If you want to exit the programming mode simply press FN + Right CTRL.
In addition to all the programming, there are 6 DIP switches on the back:
The DIP switches number 1 & 2 allow you to switch between the different layouts (Qwerty, Dvorak, Colemak & Workman).
The DIP switch number 3 allows you to change Fn & Pn positions.
The DIP switch number 4 turns on the arrow keys on left Shift / Fn / Pn / Ctrl.
The DIP switch number 5 switches Capslock / left Ctrl.
The DIP switch number 6 switches Win / Alt.
