[low token]

Do you think it is enough to get banned or praised by community.

[tight cypress]

I got called insane several times when I got third one, so yeah, already got used to it

[low token]

You cant order 10+?

[tight cypress]

I think you can, but I just add one to every order I make

[low token]

Maybe tell your Brother about keycaps he could buy for 80he

330€ keeb and 150€ is perfect combo

[tight cypress]

It's enough I'm buying him a keyboard If he wants keycaps or some other stuff he can get it by himself

[woven junco]

Hello wooting I ordered the wooting 60He
in French ansi to put it in azerty and I wanted to ask you if I have the keyboard keys with or not thanks

[marble ruin]

but with more than 1 u instantly on bath 2 list

[buoyant solstice]

ANSI prebuilt keyboards always come with preinstalled ANSI keycaps.

[woven junco]

Oh thx you bro

[vale lintel]

im new to mech keyboards, does anyone know if the case material would affect the sound? (would zinc alloy be louder than plastic)

[somber elm]

you dont make any sense

[brazen iris]

Is there something known about if the lekker v2 have improved performance/ magnet strength🤔

[buoyant solstice]

No details - But I'll say this much. Changing the magnet strength wouldn't do what you think it does. And it would likely make existing keyboards incompatible as well - which is definitely not the goal.

[somber elm]

Yeah, I wonder if it's dual rail like the KS20U's?

[winged pelican]

probably wouldn't make it louder

[brazen iris]

Na theyre not afaik but definetely improved stability

[winged pelican]

I currently use a g915 using aluminum alloy + steel-reinforced base and I can't hear any distinct "metallic" sound at all 🙂 but it feels so goooood

[icy charm]

https://tenor.com/view/no-one-knows-anything-unsolved-mysteries-who-knows-no-idea-no-clue-gif-17734891

[brazen iris]

I just cant decide prebuilt or kit. So i hope the lekker have smth over the jades like performance or smth

[somber elm]

Pm me if they're dual rails or not : D I can keep a secret!!

For Shazbot sake

[icy charm]

[brazen iris]

Alright thanks again^^

[brazen iris]

Jeah true if they are dual rails its a nobrainer for me atleast

[somber elm]

I guess not

[brazen iris]

Lol :D

[somber elm]

Switchmastah at it

[icy charm]

Yeah they just have less wobble

[brazen iris]

Might go kit + jades then

[icy charm]

Either go Jades or wait for Lekker 2.0

If you want the Jade sound

[somber elm]

How are the ks20u's btw?

[brazen iris]

Im still unsure😂

[winged pelican]

I wish I knew about this beforehand I would've bought these 😦

[icy charm]

They’re decent, sound isn’t anything special though

No wobble tho

[brazen iris]

Gonna see tomorrow whats the full price difference gonna be between full specd kit and prebuild

[somber elm]

worth it over regular lekkers IYO?

[buoyant solstice]

Don't show this to anyone. Leaked prototype of the V2 Legger

[brazen iris]

Amazing👌🏼

[tight cypress]

Copying 40mm Looting's ones, I see

[low token]

I love it. That's for handbrake button?

[icy charm]

Quad Rail Extended Box Stem nice

[buoyant solstice]

Not even 16 hours left till pre-orders begin.

[brazen iris]

And im unsure what to get💀

Fml im loosing my mind
Too many switches🫠

[icy charm]

I’d just wait for Lekker 2.0 if I were you

[brazen iris]

What lekker 2.0

Another lekker coming out after v2s?🤔

[icy charm]

V2 is different than 2.0

[brazen iris]

Huh

Interesting
Gonna get the prebuild then
Lovely information thanks👌🏼

[silk hedge]

So the v2 arent coming with the 80he?

[buoyant solstice]

They are.

[icy charm]

The v2 versions of the original Lekkers yes

But not Lekkers 2.0

[buoyant solstice]

[willow vine]

I am now officially confused lol

[silk hedge]

Huh?

[icy charm]

There’s a new switch they are making

It’s not out yet

[buoyant solstice]

Yes... the V2

[icy charm]

Comes out few months after 80HE

from what I’ve been told

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/what-huh-wat-wut-gif-13031409

[silk hedge]

His uncle works at wooting

[buoyant solstice]

You might want to check your sources on that one.

[willow vine]

I thought the 80HE comes with the V2s, and then they're selling the V2s separately a few months later?

or maybe I just don't know wth I'm talking about lol

[icy charm]

Well I can’t screenshot backstages and show it here so

[winged pelican]

Free L45 V2 switch pack (90 pieces)*

they're a keyboard company, they will always keep launching new switches and new keyboards - why would this stop you from buying something today 🙂

[icy charm]

Sources checked

I’m still right

lol

[buoyant solstice]

[icy charm]

Unless I’m reading it very wrong

[polar storm]

https://tenor.com/view/bunny-what-huh-confused-gif-16384988

[winged pelican]

I get why they don't sell pre-assembled raw zinc alloy (SKUs) but that would've fit my desk setup so nicely 😦

[polar storm]

why dont you assamble it urself?

[winged pelican]

im a keebnoob 😄 also no solder etc

[polar storm]

there are how-to's and its super easy. you can do it!

wait a moment. what do you need solder for? 😄

[winged pelican]

oh I thought I have to solder stuff when buying my own parts 😮

[polar storm]

no no no

[buoyant solstice]

The barebones is basically just the PCB and a loose case.

You put it all together with screws, pop in switches and keycaps.

[polar storm]

you add switches and keycaps - you need hands and a screwdriver

[polar storm]

well, at least one hand would be helpful 😄

[winged pelican]

oh then Imma get this module ez thanks! now I need to go down the rabbit hole of picking out switches and keycaps THANKS & FU 😆

[buoyant solstice]

https://youtu.be/eJgxb9WtYGY

See the 60HE case swap video for reference. It'll be a bit more involved on the 80HE due to the Gasket Mount, but absolutely something we expect any customer to be able to do easily by themselves with instructions. 🙂

[ashen dock]

anyone know if the 80he wrist wrest is gonna be releasing at the same time as 80he or later

[buoyant solstice]

I would expect us to have it ready by 80HE release. But delays can happen. 🙂

[ashen dock]

i see thanks

[icy charm]

[winged pelican]

will the Wooting Module 80HE from the Founders' Campaign also have foam (like the Alumaze60 foam in the vid) or is this something I need to get separately?

[valid comet]

does the 80HE or 60HE have a daughterboard for the USB-C?

or extender for the USB-C port

[buoyant solstice]

It won't have that, because the case uses gasket mounting.

Consider it... suspended into the case.

[buoyant solstice]

60HE has the connector directly soldered to the PCBA. 80HE I believe has a daughterboard.

[valid comet]

i see, that should make case options more streamline if the placement is off for the end user

[buoyant solstice]

Highly doubt it, as the 80HE is a unique design. No case out there will fit except ours.

Whoever would design one, would have to design it for the PCB specifically - Not that TKL as a whole has "standards", only a few kits that happen to share compatibitlity with one other here and there.

It's nothing like the 60% standard, where we have a whole list of compatible cases.

[valid comet]

i saw some designs that look like would work, not much of an issue for me since im going for zinc alloy

[icy charm]

Yeah there isn’t really a standard past 60/65% boards

[valid comet]

i see

[icy charm]

If the 80HE becomes super popular like the Wooting60HE did then we might see some brands make something for it but not highly likely

[winged pelican]

is there a standard for switches and keycaps? ie - if I buy a different brand switches & keycaps will they fit into 80HE? and will wooting's software support all features (rapid trigger, actuation points, etc)?

[glass wraith]

how do i become a founder for the 80he

[vapid storm]

you still need hall effect switches, there are not that many options available but the more have been popping up lately. as for keycaps you can go with anything that has an mx stem, which most caps have

[buoyant solstice]

You place an order for one during the founder's campaign, starting tomorrow.

[valid comet]

tomorrow

[dreamy sedge]

cherry standard is the cross 😛

[winged pelican]

im looking at gateron jade but they only sell 70 pieces so i will have to frankenstein it and buy the 12 set lekker switch 🤣

[lapis galleon]

jades are coming to the wooting store and can be bundled with the 80he module

[vapid storm]

footing :3

[lapis galleon]

auto correct x3

[winged pelican]

ok ladies and gents, this is sounding all good so far but now it's time to be vain - taking keycap suggestions 😄

[valid comet]

the campaign starts tomorrow and people can place their orders across 32 days, and I can purchase a Zinc Alloy board to be a part of the Founders campaign and place my order for it? yeah i'd assume maybe shy of 500 CAD

so im in no rush to place it right?

[lapis galleon]

as long as you preorder during the campaign you will be a founder

[valid comet]

within that 32~ day window

[lapis galleon]

yes, however if you order later you may end up with a later batch

[valid comet]

yeah sounds good, gonna do it within the first day or two

again money isnt the issue, i've just never done an online transaction

i know no paypal, buy yes to debit and credit iirc

i tried checking out teh 60HE+ to see for myself

card no, address mailing and email i think

[heavy flax]

anyone know a place where I can get a full look at the case

[lapis galleon]

they have some youtube videos with about the keyboard

[valid comet]

have a look at the wootingg channel

zinc alloy board as a unit may be 2kg ish?

use it as a benchmark i suppose

[heavy flax]

alright, hope that's what I'm looking for

[warm laurel]

Hello so I'm late to the party. Anybody can please tell me the difference between 60HE performance wise outside of 8kHz? and similar to TKL layout.

1. Is 8kHz coming to 60HE?
2. Hopefully 80HE default is yellow switch?
3. Still PBT OEM keycap?
4. Will it me more silent than the Lekker?
5. What else am I missing?

Also @buoyant solstice long time no see ducky became a hat

[heavy flax]

all i know for sure is keycaps

still the same

[buoyant solstice]

1. No plans, would require new hardware revision
2. Nope, L60 "green" - however free pack of "yellow" L45s with every purchase
3. Yep (except for the ABS only, French and Spanish?)
4. TBA. "A v2 switch" has been teased for the 80HE
5. Find out tomorrow!

[warm laurel]

no comment on duck!

I was looking forward to that

[buoyant solstice]

[glass wraith]

whats the expected recieve times for a 80he if i am one of the first to order tommorow. in NA

[heavy flax]

wait, what information is being revealed tomorrow?

[buoyant solstice]

No hard guarantees - expect August?

[glass wraith]

not bad

[warm laurel]

Also "tomorrow" as in EU time or

say midnight?

[glass wraith]

10 am ET i believe

[buoyant solstice]

https://wooting.io/wooting-80he

There's a countdown and everything!

[warm laurel]

ty as always

[polar storm]

thats the kind of timer we need for delivery estimation in hub

[warm laurel]

600 ppl casually spamming emojis in there

[heavy flax]

what does the bottom of the case look like

[polar storm]

i guess that depends on the case you choose

[heavy flax]

black zinc

[open nacelle]

Wait so the variant with speckles won't be released? Instead we get just a pure black keyboard?

[gilded kindle]

https://wooting.io/post/80he-founders-campaign-sneak-peak

No speckles by the look of it, but plenty of options beyond just black especially if you go module

[open nacelle]

That's what made me confused, because I remember the keyboard looked way different

the star like pattern was dope as hell

[gilded kindle]

I didn’t the speckle tbh. Vacillating between the smoky translucent & raw zinc alloy atm

[pseudo parrot]

Campaign starts today technically for me. It’s after midnight now

[haughty turret]

Sooon

[gilded kindle]

Lookin like 10am eastern for us ‘Murican folk

[lime falcon]

Is it official that they are adding knob?

[gilded kindle]

Don’t know, and wouldn’t influence my buying decision don’t need a knob lol

[lime falcon]

it looks cool

[icy charm]

https://tenor.com/view/-gif-4470566

[gilded kindle]

My amp has my volume control lol

[lime falcon]

hmm

[pseudo parrot]

A knob is in the works I believe but for what purpose i have no idea

[lime falcon]

watching the pic and cant even think where the knob can be lol

[gilded kindle]

Probably take up the four key cluster

Ins/del/pgup/dn

[lime falcon]

so 2 buttons will be removed ?

[gilded kindle]

4 if this is the case

https://jdslabs.com/product/element-iii/
You gotta say this is a fine knob tho

[lime falcon]

2 is enough for a knob

[icy cosmos]

Question 🙋 why aren’t there an add on feature? Example: I want a prebuilt Zinc alloy keyboard with Translucent PCR and Smokey translucent PCR cases

[neon bloom]

any of you guys now the estimation delivery on wooting80he

[storm grove]

Late summer but no guarantees just yet

[gilded kindle]

Before your grandchildren are born

[neon bloom]

holy fucking shit!!!

[neon bloom]

good shit takes it time sadly

[gilded kindle]

Yeee. The arrow cluster shift def took its chunk of delay

I’m hype, happy wooting 60HE owner but want my arrow keys and fn row back

[valid comet]

And the 60HE and Two HE have shook up the gaming industry

Cant wait to buy a Black Zinc Alloy Wooting 80HE

[gilded kindle]

I think raw zinc module is calling my name

[valid comet]

Completely out of raw zinc

Not the alloy, the element

[gilded kindle]

Shucks.

[valid comet]

I was joking lol

[gilded kindle]

I had a zincing feeling that was the case

[valid comet]

[gilded kindle]

8K polling is entirely unnecessary but monkey brain wants it

[winged pelican]

one issue is the painted ones may be protected a bit better. it's prob cheaper to make these over adding in additional layer(s) of paint.

[vast frigate]

So what happened to the initial countdown? They took it down just to put a new one back up?

[gilded kindle]

On the other hand paint can chip

…And it’s living on my desk in a climate controlled space, it’s not facing the elements lol

I may end up with the smoky translucent, that looks pretty fire too

[icy charm]

In other words, the page is subject to change

[winged pelican]

raw zinc may also scratch and definitely patina over time, would be interesting to see how these will look in 10-50 years 😄

[icy charm]

Nothing is permanent

[winged pelican]

I hope their billing page is better by tomorrow because atm I can't put my company details in the billing form

[gilded kindle]

My desk got plenty of scratches it’ll fit right in

[winged pelican]

no scratches on my desk but same here 😉

[gilded kindle]

It’s been well loved

[tidal sigil]

Can someone tell me is it worth to buy 60h right now or the 80 ?

[gilded kindle]

80HE won’t be coming for another 6mo so if you don’t mind waiting…

If you need a Kb right now, 60HE obv

[tidal sigil]

Phew Glad to know. Thanks

[gilded kindle]

Really can’t go wrong with either if you can be patient. I have a 60 rn and 100% ordering an 80 tomorrow lol

[winged pelican]

I personally need the function keys + delete

but if you don't need and don't want to wait (and pay more) get the 60HE

I'll use mine til they drop a wireless 80ish with media control (incl knob)

[gilded kindle]

Yup I want my fn row back is the main reason for side grading for me

• I use tilde / grave a decent bit

[winged pelican]

I'm gonna be so sad I won't have media control tho

[gilded kindle]

Layers my good sir

[tidal sigil]

Not gonna need those extra keys to be honest i'll stick to the 60h.

[tawny flame]

I mean for gaming… how often do you use your function row? Even in normal web browsing ? I have tons of keyboards, I have a few 75, tkl 65 and 60. U rarely use the function keys and probably never in fps

[tidal sigil]

Some gaming and coding would do just fine for me!

[icy charm]

yeah function keys are unneccessary

for anyone

and ill die here

lol

There's always another way

[lime falcon]

65%

[tidal sigil]

I use a mac for my daily work for the last 6 years never felt i need those keys!

[winged pelican]

my record buttons are function keys (screenshots, videos, etc)

also some work stuff may pop up even during gaming

[icy charm]

Media control is also meh

[tidal sigil]

unless i have to open an excel for some company stuff

[astral vortex]

function keys can be nice for coding, but arrow keys are definitely nice for coding

[icy charm]

Just use Fn + J, K, L

[winged pelican]

Fn key is an abomination and I will die on this hill 😉

[tidal sigil]

I use macros on my keys for most of the stuff

[gilded kindle]

Me, a Factorio player

[icy charm]

See he gets it

[tidal sigil]

Pycharm is a beauty anyways

[winged pelican]

Not f1-12

[icy charm]

Yeah I know what you mean lol

[winged pelican]

I thought I didn't need it til I had it

this is the ONLY reason why I'm still only 95% sure I'm getting the 80HE

media control is a game changer - I'm trying to find it on a numpad but I have time ig

[icy charm]

I had it on a couple boards and never really find myself using it over my interface

[winged pelican]

my my interface is alll the way thereeee

[icy charm]

Wym

[winged pelican]

you mean audio interface

[icy charm]

Yeah

[winged pelican]

yeah I ain't reaching over there 😆

[icy charm]

lmfao

[high scroll]

13 hours remaining

[icy charm]

My mixer is right in front of me

Audio interface is to the right of that

[jade widget]

Mod tap works pretty good for arrows keys on the 60he

[thorny ore]

Is there a pre order queue or can I just buy it straight away?

[tight cypress]

You can order straight away

[violet dagger]

Is this gonna be revealed tomorrow?

[tight cypress]

[thorny ore]

Does it deliver to Australia?

[tight cypress]

Yes, it does

[high scroll]

yea i was wondering about that

[thorny ore]

Sweet

[jade widget]

Worst kept secret

[violet dagger]

Awesome

[tight cypress]

Something really really cool

[high scroll]

leak it

[violet dagger]

We love really really cool things

[tight cypress]

13 hours left

[jade widget]

To reiterate it's a pre order so you won't actually get it until August/September

[fringe sundial]

How much is it?

[tight cypress]

Yes, exactly

[thorny ore]

Ohhhh

[fringe sundial]

Thanks

[thorny ore]

So the wooting 60HE is the best keyboard I can buy now?

[tight cypress]

Basically yes

[high scroll]

only right now

80he gonna be the best

[thorny ore]

That’s months away tho haha

[high scroll]

yea

[pliant magnet]

worried if zinc alloy case is easy to scratch @@

[high scroll]

i think they said its painted i might be wrong

[astral vortex]

there is a black, white, and raw version, so two options are painted

[tidal sigil]

I almost forgot to check this before ordering 60h now i'm doomed!

I need to wait for the 80he

[high scroll]

waiting until September

[left turtle]

Worst thing is pre ordering something that it’s not perfect for your liking and 3 months later having more options to choose from. Hope that does not happen

[tidal sigil]

I'll sit tight on the old logitech one i have for now and wait for the 80he. It's gonna take some patience. 🫥

[jade widget]

Think you're pretty safe dont see anybody catching up software wise to wooting anytime soon unless one of the bigger manufacturers pull finger

[icy charm]

Mmh, Wooting has some work cut out for them

In terms of software

[lime falcon]

dont think that anybody will get as good software as wooting has, i mean look at razer synapse or even g hub

[left turtle]

I don’t understand why you are so focused on software. There are ways to set and forget without having the software running right ?

[tidal sigil]

steelseries copied some of the magic stuff but not anywhere close yet.

[lime falcon]

they are both horseshit

steelseries software is a joke

[tight cypress]

Sees SS Engine
Sees Razer Synapse
Goes back to sleep

[tidal sigil]

100% agreed

[icy charm]

I’m talking more in terms of switch compatibility software/firmware and rapid trigger advancements

[astral vortex]

software does not just mean the user application

[icy charm]

Things like being able to do reverse polarity would be nice

[left turtle]

Common… depending on your expectations software works … both logi and razer. It’s the application and services that break the experience. At least my experience was flawless with both.

[lime falcon]

i havent seen software as bad as synapse

[left turtle]

Of course I like my 60he… but I still go back to the death stalker v2 pro and don’t notice any draw backs

Synapse sucks

[icy charm]

Corsair, Razer, Logitech all basically have bloatware as software

[left turtle]

That’s why you need to set and forget that app

[thorny ore]

On the website does the wooting 60HE deliver to Australia?

[jade widget]

They do

[thorny ore]

Thanks

[icy charm]

And steelseries

[jade widget]

Steelseries the worst fr

[left turtle]

Agree with you on the software. Can’t understand why you keep them installed lol 😂

[icy charm]

Yeah just set your config and uninstall

[left turtle]

Internal memory is a thing

[astral vortex]

depends on what they are being used for. For some devices such as a corsair AIO, it basically forces it to stay installed

[left turtle]

? Aio ?

[lime falcon]

yea u must definitely forget about using those softwares because they are that bad

[fallen epoch]

Steelseries is the absolute worst offender.

[icy charm]

Water pump

[left turtle]

We are talking about keyboards

[icy charm]

Lmao

[left turtle]

Having a central software for everything

[astral vortex]

I'm talking in general, just different products the applications are used for

[median lantern]

how much is the white one translucent ??

[left turtle]

It’s a different beast

[lime falcon]

same price

[median lantern]

whats the price?

[lime falcon]

200$

220euro

[median lantern]

thank you

[left turtle]

Having central software to run a bazillion things it’s hard. And I have aquasuite for that way better and even that hits of my overall system latency

[tight cypress]

White translucent is only available with module, so $185 without keycaps and switches/$230 with keycaps and switches

[left turtle]

I can only imagine Corsair or others less optimised

[icy charm]

iCUE just uses like 4gigs of ram for no reason

As if it’s Google chrome

[left turtle]

Yeah. I know lol. Glad I don’t have that crap

[lime falcon]

thats crazy lol

[icy charm]

Lmao yeah

[lime falcon]

oh its only with module? didnt know

[astral vortex]

just buy 128 gb of ram, obviously

have to have at least 100 chrome tabs open at all times

[left turtle]

Actually I try to go away from brands that limit you to use apps like Icue to run your gear. If you uninstall it you loose your configs

Lian li does the same

Mehhhh

[icy charm]

That’s why you just don’t use RGB

Easy

[tight cypress]

White translucent and Raw zinc
Kits with modules are mostly to avoid having too many SKUs to worry about
And maybe in preparation to other colors in the future

[astral vortex]

there are very few pc component options that allow you to do that unfortunately

[lime falcon]

thats so bad that they force u to use software

[left turtle]

This

https://tenor.com/view/rgb-rgb-intensifies-intensifies-intense-corsair-rgb-gif-13433637

[icy charm]

Hahaha

[astral vortex]

I have an LCD screen on my aio and I use it to display temps, other than that though, couldn't care less honestly

[leaden geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-blind-flashbang-light-mode-gif-21281004

[lime falcon]

i just hope we will get just white pcr case for 80he man, i want my white keyboard on desk

[fallen epoch]

Light mode my hated

[icy charm]

Yeah I like those

[left turtle]

LCD screens on aios are cool and dumb at the same time

[icy charm]

Haha yeah

[astral vortex]

yea, true

[icy charm]

Literally

[umbral locust]

i will spend more and I will make my life difficult just to aviod that shit. Tired of needing shit software just to disable that junk.

[left turtle]

60% of the price for looks

[icy charm]

Yeah the screens are so overpriced

[left turtle]

40% for cooling performance

I went custom wc

[umbral locust]

AIOs generally are cool and dumb at the same time

[icy charm]

It’ll be like $100 for a normal AIO, then same brand and model with a screen will be $220

[astral vortex]

it's definitely not "worth" it, but sometimes gotta buy things for the cool factor

[left turtle]

Because I wanted to learn

Not going to overpriced aio because of lcds

[icy charm]

Only thing I don’t like about custom is cleaning

When the time comes

[high scroll]

does reviewers get the keyboard before people who pre-ordered?

[fallen epoch]

Corsair and nzxt always hitting bank with them

[icy charm]

Yeah they think they’re special

[left turtle]

Doing that to mine now snif snif took me a full afternoon

[astral vortex]

yea, but I'm probably going custom for my next

[icy charm]

Hahaha yeah

I’ll probably do a sleeper build for my next

[left turtle]

Just to a simple loop

[icy charm]

Whenever that 5090 comes out

[fallen epoch]

The tradeoff for a little screen friend

[left turtle]

You spend more but performs 200% better

[astral vortex]

no evga unfortunately

[icy charm]

I know

I miss them

[astral vortex]

I have an evga 3090 ti, last evga card :(

[umbral locust]

With EVGA backing out of the gpu market and the FEs getting way better it just doesnt make sense to get an AIB

[icy charm]

I gave my EVGA 3070 to a friend

[umbral locust]

Asus and Gigabyte especailly have atrocious QC and RMA

[icy charm]

Wanted to keep it kinda

[left turtle]

I got ASUs no issues still so I’m good Ehehe but I don’t like the brand tbh

[astral vortex]

what do you have now?

[dense ridge]

who has good qa?

[high scroll]

imo aorus is the best looking gpu in the market

[left turtle]

Aorus 4090 aio was a mess

[icy charm]

I own quite a few of their products as well, a lot was for testing but, they are kinda 50/50 depending on the product

[astral vortex]

most of their units are good but a lot of people do see issues and their returns are pretty bad unfortunately

[left turtle]

Failing pumps

[fallen epoch]

Can agree on the brand bit, i have a motherboard for em and always disable their “enhancements” every bios update

[icy charm]

And they have bad warranties until the community complains and then they make them better lol

[fallen epoch]

Mhm

[icy charm]

But ASUS usually shoots itself in the foot first before doing the right thing

[left turtle]

I have x670 gene and a strix gpu. Until now they were flawless

[astral vortex]

I personally haven't done it, but I have a few friends who swear by buying the GPU from microcenter so returns and warranty is done through them (if you pay for the extended warranty garbage)

[icy charm]

Yep same

[left turtle]

I still think people do a lot of mistakes with the hardware sometimes

[icy charm]

Not the gene tho

I have the hero

No issues so far

[jade widget]

That's why I've been using a Noctua NH-D15 for the past 8 years

[left turtle]

Had the hero and switched to Gene

[icy charm]

Wdym until now tho?

[astral vortex]

I have a z690 hero and haven't had any issues so far

[icy charm]

What happened

[left turtle]

From now on I will only get 2 dimms motherboard

[high scroll]

noctua is just too good i was thinking to switch to noctua and just leave the overpriced aio's

[icy charm]

Most buy way more than they need

[jade widget]

Noctua send me a free bracket for new cpu sockets

[left turtle]

This. I need 2 nvmes and 1 gpu + 2 dimms

[icy charm]

Which isn’t always a bad thing if future proofing but that term is kinda bad cause there’s really no such thing, especially with how fast technology moves

[left turtle]

That’s it

[umbral locust]

Ime MSI is goated

And their support isn't a pain in the ass if something is wrong

[astral vortex]

nah, you need 2 4090s

[icy charm]

Artic makes some nice stuff too for good prices

[left turtle]

Always had good experiences with msi

[fallen epoch]

RIP sli

[umbral locust]

Noctua is the golden standard when it comes to customer service

[icy charm]

I haven’t had problems with MSI, but I do have a problem with their logo

Fuck that logo

Stupid dragon

[left turtle]

Still have a msi 1080Ti Seahawk x

[icy charm]

On everything

[mint sequoia]

I generally need around 3tb of storage because of my work flow and games. Used to have a 128gb ram kit but one of my dimms said goodbye so I’m down to 64.

[umbral locust]

i have a 4090 and I just air cool, all noctuas, my computer is ice cold

[jade widget]

Sli was barely functional as it was so many buggy drivers

[left turtle]

I never had sli. Only crossfire

[jade widget]

Crossfire was even worse 😂

[left turtle]

Well I had a gtx690

Tbh I can’t remember which gpu was it. It was a dual gpu card Ehehe

[brazen iris]

Hey @icy charm are the jades or the ks20u more stable in terms of stem wobble?🤔

[left turtle]

Ooold

[icy charm]

I'd have to say the KS20u but it's very very minor on the Jades too, almost non existent imo

[brazen iris]

Mhh alright
Thanks^^

[icy charm]

Yeah Its very close so I'd just go for sound between those two

Whichever sound you prefer

[dense ridge]

@umbral locustmsi are the most horrible cards 🙂

they even dont want to spend money on thermal pads

[icy charm]

I don't care for their GPUs, yeah

[brazen iris]

Alright alright👌🏼

[icy charm]

Motherboards are good tho

[dense ridge]

motherboards of MSI are good yes

[umbral locust]

Yeah I've stuck with MSI mobos for a while now.

[dense ridge]

but gpu's are horrible

[high scroll]

gigabyte are also nice

[umbral locust]

Personally after multiple 3070s that were busted, am just sticking with FE

[icy charm]

Yeah Gigabyte boards are good

GPU not so much

[umbral locust]

So when I got a 4090 that's what I got and I have no regrets.

[icy charm]

FE cards have gotten much better so

[dense ridge]

asus gpu's are superior except the coil whine.. they all have coill whine 😦 gigabyte has no coil whine but the overall quality of gigabyte gpu is worse then asus's

[mint sequoia]

Always had good gigabyte gpus. My go to tbh.

[umbral locust]

I agree. Over here it's the only cards you will get for MSRP too.

[worthy wigeon]

In terms of initial and end force which is lighter, L45 or Jades ?

[icy charm]

Gigabyte did have good cooling on their GPUs this time around but the fan shroud was meh

[icy charm]

L45

Jades is 50g end

45 is 45g end

[dense ridge]

i have 4070 super gaming oc and the sound of fans after 60% is horrible.. i even think that the fans are touching to the heatsink

[mint sequoia]

Jades have a lighter initial 35g with an end of 50g.

[icy charm]

Gigabyte card?

[dense ridge]

yup

[high scroll]

yea the oc is bad

[dense ridge]

4070 super gaming oc gigabyte

[icy charm]

I had the 4090 Gaming OC and was pretty good tbh

Sold it to a friend

[left turtle]

I never notice coilwine 😂

[dense ridge]

have u checked the fan noise on 70% =)?

[high scroll]

u just go with the eagle or aorus

[heavy flax]

i plan on building a pc with 7950x3d and 4080 super

[dense ridge]

i mean in real use u will never see 70% on fans.. u had to do that via msi afterburner

[umbral locust]

Why such overkill CPU?

[mint sequoia]

My GPU just works lmfao I have over ear headphones on half the time so my pc is rarely heard 💀

[dense ridge]

eagle is worse then gaming oc

[umbral locust]

For just gaming, 7800x3d is better.

[left turtle]

Zen5 around the corner dude

[icy charm]

Not sure tbh, never went past like 62C when gaming on it

[high scroll]

really?

[dense ridge]

yes

[worthy wigeon]

So in this calculation does the travel distance affects also the input ?

Like jades being 3.5 mm

[heavy flax]

after effects and premiere… I would go 7800x3d if I just played games

[mint sequoia]

My AMD space heater is melting the coating on the led strip in my PC tho 🔥🔥🔥

[icy charm]

Just shorter travel distance so faster bottom out

[dense ridge]

windforce > eagle > gaming oc, aero > aorus

[icy charm]

^

[high scroll]

idk i never tried it personally i just saw some reviews, i jumped from 3060 colorful to 4070 aorus so yeah it was a decent upgrade

[icy charm]

I wanted an Aero card just cause they looked nice

AORUS cards are ugly imo

[high scroll]

ok i see

[heavy flax]

I'd probably use the price cut from that… if I want to upgrade then I could just buy an zen5 without switching mobi

[umbral locust]

Fair, why not intel?

[tight cypress]

More or less like so (red - Lekkers, violet - Jades, x-axis - depth, y-axis - analog value)

[heavy flax]

350w is not my style 😭

[worthy wigeon]

So can they be equally if we subtract the 0.5 mm against the 0,5 g force ?

[icy charm]

No

That's two different things

[umbral locust]

super fair its crazy lmao

[heavy flax]

7950x3d performs as good for half the power consumption

[left turtle]

If you are gaming don’t get the 7950x3d. Much worst. Get the 7800x3d. If you are working just get the 7950x. Believe me. Been there done that for a T-shirt

[icy charm]

Yeah don't get 3D cache if not gaming

[heavy flax]

I'm doing both so I'm not sure

[left turtle]

Dual ccds on amd with stacked 3D cache not amazing

[worthy wigeon]

Perhaps im reading wrong the graphic but Does Jades have faster input since the curve is more vertical?

[icy charm]

7800X3D is slightly faster in some scenarios because of single CCD

[mint sequoia]

My 2700x is still kicking ass on most triple A titles 😂

[tight cypress]

They have faster increasing analog value, due to a stronger magnet, but it doesn't matter at all, at let's say 0.1~0.5 mm

[high scroll]

i was thinking upgrading my r7 5800x cuz there is some bottleneck but idk if its good time to buy the new gen yet (i have 4070)

[heavy flax]

what cpu should I get then? Wait for zen5?

[left turtle]

Yeah. Tbh wait a couple more months

[worthy wigeon]

Allright but then, its like on Jades on less depth you have more analog value is that right ?

[heavy flax]

alright ill be happy with a 9950x lol

[left turtle]

😂

[heavy flax]

or a 9900

[tight cypress]

Exactly, the deeper you press, the bigger the difference

[icy charm]

Yes

[worthy wigeon]

hence being "faster"

[icy charm]

Correct

Faster bottom out

[worthy wigeon]

than l45

[icy charm]

Technically yes

[left turtle]

As for jades and overall HE … I’m getting pissed sometimes that they are so sensitive 😂

[mint sequoia]

Faster bottom out with a heavier end force of 50g.

[lilac plaza]

Hey guys, Just found out about this keyboard. Never had a wooting keyboard before

[worthy wigeon]

I believed a "technically yes but.... " was incoming

[heavy flax]

any questions? i have a modded 60he

[tight cypress]

Yeah, both Jades and L45s start at 30g, way too light for me

[lilac plaza]

Right now my favorite is a FC660C Topre, how would these switches compare?

[icy charm]

Really just depends how hard you're pressing your switch, if we're not including rapid trigger and just full travel distance from 0.1 - 4mm, the Jades would be faster than L45 technically

[mint sequoia]

Haha I can understand this. Though my hands fatigue easily during rhythm games, honestly a skill issue, but I’ve always preferred a lighter switch.

[worthy wigeon]

Perfect then

[lilac plaza]

My leopold FC660C is having some issue where it disconnects and I have to unplug it and plug it back in. So it has me thinking I might be due for a new keyboard (been years).

[mental gulch]

Hi guys, do u guys know if there are any custom case alternatives for the 80he ?

[heavy flax]

I don't really know anything about topre lol, but these switches would feel more linear and smooth

[left turtle]

Nopeeee

[steady escarp]

You can get a new usb controller from hasu or somewhere and fix it very easy btw

Fc660c is such a good board I love topre

[lilac plaza]

Hasu?

[worthy wigeon]

Sometimes i like to not press the key but move my finger horizontally on the key and my analog value still registers. Although the actuation point is higher so i get no input.

But why is that? i mean ionly move my finger horizontally without pressing on the key. Just having a low contact and analog value get registered.

[steady escarp]

I’ll pm

[left turtle]

Increase actuation point

[lilac plaza]

The keyboard I still have for gaming is Blackbird TKL with browns. but all the LEDs are not working

[tight cypress]

Topres have really weird force curve... L45s would be similar maybe? Maybe Jades?

[icy charm]

Yeah I'd say so

[worthy wigeon]

I did. So i get no input and its fine.
But i cant understand why i get analog signal if im not pressing the key, just hovering my finger with low contact and moving it horizontally

[left turtle]

Weird … but that’s one of the reasons I am so mad at he sometimes 😂

[worthy wigeon]

That's what people say about "wobbling"?

[heavy flax]

If we order when can we expect to get the keyboard

[left turtle]

September ?

[worthy wigeon]

july-september

[heavy flax]

😭man

[left turtle]

Yeah

Welcome to pre orders

😂

[jade widget]

It'll probably help having less key wobble but the accidental inputs can be fixed by raising the rapid trigger to be less sensitive

[heavy flax]

i truly hate preorders to death

[left turtle]

Yeah I feel ya

For my 60he after 3 months

March last year

[icy charm]

Tell me you've never waited 2 years for a board without telling me

[heavy flax]

Bro in 2 years you might as well have lost interest

[left turtle]

Instant cancellation

[icy charm]

lmao

[heavy flax]

Jesus lol

[jade widget]

Xm2w waiting room

[left turtle]

Pre ordered holy60 from kbd. Already cancelled because of delays

Nahhhh

[heavy flax]

no way you're still waiting for that mouse

nvm

[left turtle]

Mouse? ?
Vaxee bro!!!

[heavy flax]

but yea i might give up on the 80he

[jade widget]

Sound profile of the holy60 gotta be trash

[heavy flax]

what is a holy60

[low token]

Hey guys

[icy charm]

A terrible idea

[left turtle]

Seems not. Alexotos says otherwise

[low token]

What 80he you are buying

[icy charm]

Probs white zinc or raw

[left turtle]

Zync baby 😂

[low token]

Which one

[left turtle]

Need to check the colours when they are out

[heavy flax]

raw zinc would be so nice with metal keycaps

[low token]

Black white raw?

[left turtle]

Not sure yet but raw seems cool

[low token]

It looks like metal

Metal texture ingames

[jade widget]

Watching his video rn he said "so this particular case is for someone who's strictly into the aesthetic and maybe sound is a backburner thing"

Doesn't sound like he thinks otherwise 😂

[heavy flax]

when can we expect the 80he to be in stock though

[left turtle]

Hmmm from his video he said that he likes it but not with HE PCB

but all good

[icy charm]

I think you're both right iirc from watching his live of the Holy60

[left turtle]

Won’t be getting that case anyway 😂

Instant cancel after 1 more month delay

Dude we don’t know tomorrow. Waiting for something for months gets frustrating

[jade widget]

Idk what video you watched I just heard him say "even with a normal pcb I don't think it would sound any better"

[umbral locust]

To each their own, but man, the holey 60 is just nasty lmao

[icy charm]

Maybe I need to rewatch lol

[jade widget]

You don't have to be a sound engineer to figure out that case is not gonna sound good

[icy charm]

It's just not really "capturing" any sound because of the design

I do think its cool if you're just going for the aesthetic

[jade widget]

It is a cool looking board

[lilac plaza]

It sounds like cobble stones when I type. Great for work invironment.

80HE looks like the right keyboard for me

[left turtle]

maybe you are right. i saw the video where he did not review it... but was trying it while reviewing another keyboard and at that time he said he liked it ... maybe on the review it was different but i have not checked it

https://youtu.be/DSGwlzI5h5g?si=P8WVtcLGr7zR0WzK&t=1676

this ...

[icy charm]

Yeah, cause in his live and he tested with HE first and said the same thing

Sounds nice like that tho forsure

[left turtle]

so... depending on your expectations ... i think its cool

[icy charm]

iirc

Yeah

Two Screw Chad

[crisp harness]

When is the founder campaign?

[left turtle]

normal switches will always sound better

[icy charm]

Always

For now...

Maybe HE will advance one day

[left turtle]

My 2 babies. He vs mechanical

[icy charm]

https://tenor.com/view/head-flip-different-point-of-view-turning-head-watching-watching-it-gif-15717629

[left turtle]

i know

lol 😄

quick snapshot 😄

[icy charm]

Is the Taro the HE?

[valid comet]

Which us which

[left turtle]

yeah Taro is the He ... Octopus is the mech

[icy charm]

Thought so

[left turtle]

alumaze vs kbd 😄

[icy charm]

Yeah I saw the Alumaze edges and figured that was the HE lol

[left turtle]

the price of those Taros imported to Portugal though 😄

[valid comet]

I mean black or charactee mat

Idk which one im new to custom kbs

[left turtle]

there... now straight 😄

KBD = kbd pcb with gatheron silver 2 stage v3 pro's ... still love them 😄

but yeah... right now

i'm more into a TKL or HE80 tbh ... enough of small keyboards

[ebon sluice]

already got mine and slapped on some blanks https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/984799440072220692/1190447382689746975/image.png?ex=65fe1e85&is=65eba985&hm=1c9a4f57a4977f325976c156c376f5cc2dd903012fc5e6146e281b6ddf0e3f31&

[left turtle]

you wished :d

[ebon sluice]

shit is mad bro

[worthy wigeon]

I already used the analog app to register the analog signal.

Quick question:

I tried to not press the key but move my finger horizontally on the key and my analog value still gets register. The actuation point is higher so i get no input and that is fine.

But why it registers analog value if i dont press the key? i mean i only move my finger horizontally without pressing on the key. Just having a low contact and the analog value gets registered.

Is that what people say about the "wobbling stem" ?

[left turtle]

btw don't buy these Octopus keycaps ... they are not worth the money ... cool color scheme for those who like them ... but in terms of overall quality ... mehhhhh

[jade widget]

Just need to get all these HE boards through some proper testing like through RTINGS

[lime falcon]

can you post a screenshot ?

[lilac plaza]

so the the 80HE a great board or what?

[left turtle]

on the paper? sureeeee

[jade widget]

Well it ain't out yet but I'd assume yes

[lime falcon]

on paper the greatest

[lilac plaza]

I might have to get a new board to retire this ancient blackbird

[ebon sluice]

I know nothing about anime but should I get this for the 80HE?

[left turtle]

This white one is also amazing but I keep going back to the 60. Let’s see 🙂

although, in Europe , a pre-order of 340 is a a steep decision 😄

[jade widget]

It's alright I gotta ship the 80he all the way to NZ

That ain't gonna be cheap

[lime falcon]

ouch

[left turtle]

KIWI's!!!! 😄

i imagine the price of that shipment :x

[jade widget]

Well the 60he was €45

[left turtle]

ok... "not too bad"

[jade widget]

80he with zinc case definitely gonna be bigger and heavier

[lime falcon]

oh damn

it will cost you more than a kb

[jade widget]

I'm use to it Europe is basically the other side of the world

Think nz lines up with Spain if you dug straight through

[lime falcon]

yea sadly u dont have other options

[jade widget]

Just remote island tax

[foggy quiver]

What are the thoughts on raw vs black zinc? The raw would certainly be unique but black is safer

[midnight iron]

Jesus that’s a lot of messages here since yesterday

80he launch really hyping folks up

[ebon sluice]

Get the Raw and enjoy the natural oxidization

Like an old rust bucket VW convi van

[midnight iron]

I’m not even sure if zinc alloy oxidizes like that

[foggy quiver]

80he raw zinc comes with free tetanus ☺️

[ebon sluice]

[real gulch]

we camping outside the online store

[ebon sluice]

don't bother my bot is going to beat yours

[fresh pecan]

I dont see the 80He on the website?

[midnight iron]

still 10 hours to go https://wooting.io/wooting-80he

[real gulch]

looks so good

[lime falcon]

i might be asleep

[tawny flame]

U guys ordering it first minute,

lol is there any reason to

[daring flax]

maybe priority in shipping line although i highly doubt it

im just buying it tomorrow so i can keep my finances in check

[midnight iron]

The church of the 80he zinc alloy prioritises fast ordering

[tawny flame]

I would buy white but someone said it will be warm white. Not e white. Going raw zinc option

[midnight iron]

Who said that? The early prototypes were closer to bleached ws1 white not ws2

[lime falcon]

no

[midnight iron]

The church of the zinc 80he elders will be ordering in first 30 seconds

[lime falcon]

sno i might change my name to church of white pcr 80he

[midnight iron]

We welcome all denominations

[lime falcon]

not translucent, just white

[midnight iron]

Soon we will welcome a new offshoot, the church of the titanium cerakoted raw zinc alloy

[lime falcon]

[limpid comet]

I'm confused, the 80HE countdown shows it will be at 7am PST. The Blog says 6am PST. I think the Blog doesn't take into account daylight savings?

[formal mulch]

hi guys i’ve been confused about getting the 60he+ or the 80he since i can get the 60he in a week but wait till q2/q3 for 80he, can u guys tell me if there is any major difference between both of them that i should wait for?

[limpid comet]

can you live without F-keys major function keys or arrow keys?

[formal mulch]

yes actually i had a razer huntsman mini earlier so im used to the layout

[devout tartan]

I bought the 60he+ but its not on the way yet can I cancel it and buy the new one ?

[prisma fjord]

80he gonna have 8k polling

[devout tartan]

Someone know about the price as well ?

[formal mulch]

yes but in a real world scenario 1ms and sub 1ms response time make any noticeable difference?

[prisma fjord]

https://wooting.io/post/80he-founders-campaign-sneak-peak

[midnight iron]

There’s a bunch of videos and blogs on the wooting 80he website that run you through everything

[prisma fjord]

#🌟│wooting80he message

[foggy quiver]

You won’t be able to notice unless you can slow down time at will

[formal mulch]

so i should go ahead with 60he+?

if that’s the only key difference

[limpid comet]

I have the 60HE and I thought I could live without them. But just like in the past, I once again absolutely hate the 60% layout. I'm an industry professional and I really need more functionality out of the keyboard. I'm a very competitive online gamer. And not having the extra tilde key and F keys super close to the number keys, for binds, really irritates me. I make use of all the shortcuts but it's really annoying not having even the functionality of a 75%. So I can't wait for the 80HE tbh. Hall effect keys are required for any keyboard I get now.

[foggy quiver]

If you can survive with the 60% layout go that route, as it will leave you with more options for customization down the road. Plus you get it sooner. If you like the look of the 80 or you think the utility of the extra keys makes that difference go that route.

[formal mulch]

oh okay got it guys

[foggy quiver]

Me personally i need the extra keys so im getting the 80

[formal mulch]

yes i totally get it

im getting my pc shipped in about 2 weeks so i’m in a hurry

80he is supercool that’s why i was debating myself about waiting

anyways thank you guys

[winter coral]

Has anyone read up on dermatological tests for zinc/aluminum? Oxidation via sweat and abrasion that is inhaled.

[spark hound]

Have you?

[winter coral]

Yes something, is quite spongy...permanent zinc/ aluminum contact can trigger Alzheimer's - at least deposits are found in the brain. You shouldn't inhale it either... swallowing it isn't a problem, as it's in the water anyway.

But perhaps there are experts here who can work this out more accurately or wooting has arranged for a dermatological examination.

[charred prairie]

foaming out the mouth rn

[dim sierra]

I assume there is a coating over so there wont be reactions like oxidation

[stone dragon]

I am not the same person but I wanna remind you. :)

[lilac plaza]

there is nothing between the 60 and the 80HE?

I like the 60 but with arrow keys

[ashen quiver]

when do you think the 80 will have third party cases compatible with it? OvO
thinking about just buying it without the case and using it without one till then xD

[lime falcon]

i dont think that third party case will be any cheaper

[ashen quiver]

not about the price, but aesthetics

[lime falcon]

u dont like zinc alloy?

[ashen quiver]

i like cases that make the keys look like theyre floating

if that makes sense

[hollow sigil]

Will the keyboard feet will be included in the 80he ?

[lime falcon]

yes

[spark hound]

Yes

Just look at any of the options

[hollow sigil]

All the variations of it ?

[tiny tartan]

titanium feet

[hollow sigil]

Nice. Looking forward for the release today

[hollow sigil]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[tiny tartan]

i was gonna get translucent but waifu pitched for the zinc 🔥

[lime falcon]

free 90 l45 is massive tho

[hollow sigil]

I will get white zinc

[queen inlet]

So the keyboard launches at 7am pst, not 6am pst? The tweet said 6am

[spark hound]

https://wooting.io/post/80he-founders-campaign-sneak-peak

[hollow sigil]

Already have a black 60he

[tiny tartan]

is 45 better than 60? gaming wise or just preference

[spark hound]

@hollow sigil all the info you need

[lime falcon]

preference

[hollow sigil]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[lime falcon]

im personally using l45 in games ( L45 wasd and my osu keys) rest L60

[tiny tartan]

oh interesting

45s easier to press?

[hollow sigil]

Zinc white is going to be tough

[lime falcon]

yes

L45 is way lighter than L60

[hollow sigil]

Are you guys goin on the zinc case option?

[lime falcon]

Nah

im fine with pcr case

[hollow sigil]

I see

[lilac plaza]

I can live with the 80 I guess

if the 60 had arrows I would just get that though. But I like my 80 so long as im not lugging it to work.

[lime falcon]

what do u prefer ? 65%?

[jade widget]

Need that zinc brick on my desk

[lilac plaza]

yea

[lime falcon]

yea 65% is very good, but this layout is also goated tho

[lilac plaza]

I'll be commuting durring the launch

Yea I have my 80 at home. honestly it looks small in front of this 57" monitor anyways. I'll just use my FC660C for commuting. But this TLK Blackbird is super old. LED's all stopped working

[lime falcon]

But... 75% better xD

[lilac plaza]

I do wonder if it is just a fuse or something. I have not bothered to take it apart

Interesting... It's 10 years old last month

[ruby crystal]

do the founders editions usually differ in any significant way from the main releases? Just wondering about the quality control before and after the founders release

[lime falcon]

no

I dont think so

[tiny tartan]

QC is always a scary thing. I've experienced bad QC from Intel when I bought their 13900K on release. Constant crashes when I played UE5 games and it took me around 5 months to figure out it was a bad CPU

I'm assuming wooting would take care of it though
They seem to care about their brand and customers

[lime falcon]

yea, wooting has good QC

[worthy merlin]

is alloy worth the extra 100 u guys think?

[spark hound]

Total money VS enjoyment of keyboard? I doubt it. It's cool though

I'm going to get it

[lilac plaza]

I have never had one so I think im going to do it

[worthy merlin]

Yeah im leaning towards it myself because im curious

[lilac plaza]

Worth it... I dunno plastic works just fine

I always wanted an aluminum case for my FC660C but they cost as much as the keyboard

I'm actually wondering if I should get another one of these: https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/fc660c-blue-grey?variant=47992400281900&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&srsltid=AfmBOorOT2IeLswC0F595bQYx5vDkxZPUJ-r8CmQ1bPFDkIHPlGqIsR7trc

i always wanted a leopold topre board, but it's nowhere to be found in europe

[lilac plaza]

before they are all gone forever lol

It's my favorite although I just use an old mechanical with browns for games.

[worthy merlin]

that board does look so good

[lilac plaza]

yea mine doesn't have the blue it's just all gray and a white PBT spacebar I got from custom group buy

10 years and the keys are not shiny (except the old spacebar).

[worthy merlin]

gray is the best color imo

[lilac plaza]

actually I seem to be wearing the PBT spacebar lightly on this one too

[rustic idol]

@lilac plaza check your dms

[timber crescent]

if we buy the module 80he is it gonna be more expensive due to more package to deliver ?

[worthy merlin]

module is always more expensive

[timber crescent]

Yea but it seems that this time if we choose wisely it can be less expensive then the assembled one

[worthy merlin]

how so?

[timber crescent]

idk it yet we need to wait 6 more hours to see this

[worthy merlin]

gotcha gotcha

[limpid wagon]

I am wondering why it can only buy five Wooting at a time.

If having both a storage box and a keyboard palm rest at the same time, its total quantity is also limited to 5.

[rustic idol]

i believe if you want to buy more than 5 keyboards you will have to contact wooting directly, [e-mail]

[timber crescent]

are you playing to resell them or all your familly want the new 80he?

[valid comet]

Oh no im scared I wont ve able to get my 80HE Black Zinc Alloy on Day 1!

[worthy merlin]

why? cuz it might get sold out?

[valid comet]

I have no idea

[worthy merlin]

oh

[valid comet]

Because I have to get mine later on day 1

First time doing an online transaction

[worthy merlin]

ah i see

[valid comet]

I usually make money and get my parents or friends to build their own credit scores lmaooooo

And pay them

[worthy merlin]

lol thats nice of u

[valid comet]

I feel like its about time I learn though

So I have to wait for my dad to come from work since I conveniently have a day off

As long as it's day 1 I should be ok

[worthy merlin]

yeah i think youll be fine i dont think it will get sold out immediately

[valid comet]

Afaik its not stock, its actually a placeholder for founders

[limpid wagon]

Will you choose the plastic one for $200 or the aluminum alloy one for $330?

[valid comet]

Zinc alloy in black for me

[worthy merlin]

zinc but idk white or black

when do you think it will get shipped?

[valid comet]

August or September

[buoyant solstice]

Estimated of course. Delays usually happen.

[valid comet]

6 months...

[worthy merlin]

fuck

[valid comet]

Good things take time

[jade widget]

We go raw zinc and if I change my mind later we cerakote

[valid comet]

I waited for 3 months and got a perfect copy of the ULX Guardian Tiger from 7 years of a G502 Hero

There are no problems with it

I just have to get used to the new clicks and shape a bit but it feels pretty awesome

[limpid wagon]

Why do we need to wait for a whole six months?

[lilac plaza]

Can I get one in Coyote Tan or OD Green?

Coyote Tan would be super bad ass.

[lime falcon]

because they need to make keyboards?

[tiny tartan]

Same lol
It's insanely light. I love it

[valid comet]

Which one

[tiny tartan]

ULX tiger

[valid comet]

Phantom or Guardian

Ive heard a lot more copies of the tiger have been well received

[molten arch]

Cuz product isnt finished yet

[valid comet]

Basically, a promise to be fulfilled

[tiny tartan]

Guardian

[valid comet]

Guardian Tiger BROOOO

This will pair perfectly with my 80HE for home and Q1 HE for travel

[tiny tartan]

I'm using a glass mousepad
Feels amazing

[lime aspen]

I use glass pad with lamzu

Ain't never giving finalmouse my money

[valid comet]

Considered doing glass skates for easy internal access

[lime aspen]

Glass skates suck

[valid comet]

Are they really that bad on cloth?

[lime aspen]

Very inconsistent glide due to many factors and once the coating wears down they slow down tremendously

[valid comet]

Uffff

[lime aspen]

They also wear your cloth pad down a lot faster

[valid comet]

I mostly wanted it so I could have access without pulling feet off every time

[lime aspen]

You could just get ptfe dots

Glass skates really aren't worth it

[calm wyvern]

You'd be better served getting a glass pad and PTFE feet vs glass skates

[stone dragon]

Glass skates doesnt wear down a MPC450 btw

[ornate jasper]

at this point just do both glass

[lime aspen]

Uhhh

[stone dragon]

If you do a glass skates get an MPC450

[oblique mist]

the website says "delivery Q2/Q3", so it could still be shipped in Q2 or not?

[calm wyvern]

Terrible idea

[stone dragon]

Glass on glass is bad

[lime aspen]

How to ruin your pad and lungs 101

[trim sedge]

mmm yummy glass

[lime aspen]

Me loves breathing silica dust

[valid comet]

I see

[lime aspen]

Glass skates will eventually wear the coating off no matter the pad

And still wears cloth pads out faster

[ornate jasper]

I used superglide's for like a year but I wouldn't say they really worth it.

[valid comet]

Wont be surprised due to the sheer volume

[ornate jasper]

The mouse died before the slides did, so wear wasn't a issue

[lime aspen]

Glass skates are also incredibly inconsistent based on humidity

So if you live somewhere with drastically different humidity between seasons that is something to consider

[oblique mist]

That's right, I don't think so either, but it might be possible..

[summer urchin]

it could technically happen yes

[buoyant solstice]

No telling till we get closer. It's all educated guesswork. Delays always happen.

[valid comet]

Im ready to expect it

Worst case it becomes my 23rd bday present

[summer urchin]

i mean, i want through the entire rollercoaster already 🤣

acknowledging i need to replace my keyboard and deciding i want higher end than my current razer one. then deciding i want a wooting, deciding i want a 60HE+.
reading a 80% is comming soon, and deciding i'd rather have that even if it takes me half a year or longer to receive it

[paper lagoon]

today is release day?

[valid comet]

For the pre-order

In 5.5h

I'm excited to get my black zinc alloy copy :D

[molten arch]

Raw zinc alloy looks nice as well, but imma go with black as too

[valid comet]

All of them grew on me

But zinc alloy is MMMMM

[desert quest]

I think white zinc looks the best

[karmic canyon]

where to see the colours?

[desert quest]

https://wooting.io/post/80he-founders-campaign-sneak-peak

[karmic canyon]

raw zinc alloy only available for the module it seems?

[spark hound]

what? there is a seperate one

scroll down

ooh you need to pick the module if you want the RAW zinc alloy

can the raw one be used just like that or does it need to be treated?

[polar storm]

Do you ever sleep?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes. A whole 8 hours.
It's 9:43AM here. Work time.

[polar storm]

Same. But when I went to bed you were still here 🤔

[winged pelican]

no info on this

[buoyant solstice]

Would make for a terrible product, if it wasn't functional at point of sale 😄

Details on coating and finish are something we have yet to go into depth about.

[spark hound]

would be best to have that info before buying it

[buoyant solstice]

No arguments there. But thankfully it's a month long campaign, and we'll help anyone change their order as needed, if information comes out that is significant enough for them to want a change.

[stone dragon]

You're staff?

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/who-wants-to-know-yellowstone-why-do-you-ask-whos-asking-whos-interested-in-knowing-gif-18144494

[summer urchin]

where will the first batch be shipped from btw? do we know that

[buoyant solstice]

Same as usual.

US for US customers.
Netherlands for anyone else - with the exception of China, Taiwan, Japan and Korea? They have a warehouse over there.

[coarse comet]

does it matter when i order during founders campign, if i order sooner will i be in a sooner batch

[buoyant solstice]

Potentially, yes.

[summer urchin]

awesome, since i'm dutch myself

[remote snow]

hey is the Founders’ Campaign a pre-order, or the keyboard will be shipped out instantly?

[buoyant solstice]

Pre-order. Expect late summerish

[remote snow]

Thank you

[celest laurel]

IT IS HAPPENING

[lunar arch]

Question the keys on the 80he the same as wooting one ?

[rose crane]

with raw zinc alloy do you need to add the colour what you like or is it more premium?

[buoyant solstice]

In what context?

[unreal compass]

cant wait to get zinc alloy pog

[buoyant solstice]

Switches?
Keycaps?
Something else?

[lunar arch]

Like are they the same type as the one on my wooting tkl one lekker red non magnetic

Switches

[buoyant solstice]

No. The Wooting One and Wooting Two uses Flaretech switches. Completely different technology to all of our current keyboards, which all use magnets instead of lasers.

[lunar arch]

Ty

[ruby jungle]

i dont even see the difference between zinc alloy and the other one am i blind

[buoyant solstice]

Plastic is plastic, zinc is metal.

[ruby jungle]

ahh okay i thought its different in design

what is the "module" thing?

its everything except the pcb or?

[buoyant solstice]

The opposite.

It allows you to pick which switches to include, as well as the case. Cause the keyboard isn't preassembled.

[ruby jungle]

oh okay so we have to assemble it ourself?

[buoyant solstice]

Mhmm

[lunar arch]

@buoyant solstice is translucent part of the FE pre order ?

[buoyant solstice]

You screw the case and PCB together, you push in all of the switches, as well as keycaps. And then you're good to go.

We'll be providing videos to help with this.

[ruby jungle]

thx

[lunar arch]

I did see that but pre assembled pre order in 4 hours

[buoyant solstice]

It's both shown AND listed as an option. Not sure how more clear we can make it 🙂

[foggy salmon]

does the 80he has north or south facing leds? 😄

[buoyant solstice]

North Facing. 🙂

[foggy salmon]

isnt south facing the more "custom" way to go

[buoyant solstice]

Trouble is - We already have the keycaps. If we were to release something as south facing, we'd have to make new molds for backlit keycaps.

[lunar arch]

But I was confused to me that is barebones I have to select the kit and assemble it myself

[buoyant solstice]

Some (I think two of?) the case options are module only.

[odd sleet]

Why is the price less in dollars and more in euros? For example if im living in EU and paying via paypal with dollars, it would be much more less delivery\transfer tax🫤 or is it converting?

[dense trout]

If I want Nordic iso, only option is he80 module right?

[buoyant solstice]

First of all - No paypal available.
Secondly - Because the EU price examples are shown WITH VAT included.

[buoyant solstice]

You can pick a preassembled keyboard and nordic keycaps. ISO doesn't have keycaps preinstalled.

[dense trout]

Ok thanks

[odd sleet]

oh, i see, so it would convert to euros when ill pay via credit card (my main currency isnt euro) if im living in eu + vat, so it would be only transfer taxes for me, ty for answer

[zealous forum]

how long will the preorder campaign go do we already know ?

[buoyant solstice]

The founder campaign is for 32 days.

Pre-orders will continue past that, but without the perks.

[buoyant solstice]

We charge in euros, including taxes (if the delivery address is within the EU, UK or CA)
Your bank will currency convert that (and typically charge you a small conversion fee) on their end.

[zealous forum]

ah got it thanks

[untold crest]

no Pre-installed version for 80he？

[buoyant solstice]

There is.

[prisma fjord]

#🌟│wooting80he message

[untold crest]

any estimated delivery date released？

[buoyant solstice]

August'ísh

[prisma fjord]

Delivery Q2/Q3 '24

[thorny void]

Can't tell how it looks in real, but on my screen(OLED) there is a clear difference in colors between the two. Zink alloy is way more black.

[buoyant solstice]

Do keep in mind they are renders. 3D models. 🙂

[thorny void]

Ye I guessed so

[molten arch]

Its a metallic look from what i can tell
