[valid comet]

what do you prefer

[fossil raven]

Do you need to swap the keyswitch on 80HE manually?

[main bone]

idk but i ma on the classic side

so a 100

but the features of the 80 is crazy

[valid comet]

the only difference in performance are the slightly faster response times and 8k parallel scan and 8k polling

and i don't think most people have anything to worry about

i know for me it may help mmore given I need inputs to be as responsive as possible both accuarate and precise

80HE is marginally ahead, but the returns may be diminishing, i recommend choosing on form factor, typing feel, and if you care abour certain types of modifications

as a 60HE+ user for over 2 months, I can guarantee this will be just fine

Two HE has the same performance has 60HE+

[agile tusk]

when is the approximate shipping date(s) of the 80he to US customers?

[valid comet]

US has a seperate warehouse

theirs is the last one

Canada shares with the EU

so we are a bit earlier

go to wooting hub

[ripe shell]

If you order now it’s September

Early September i think

[fossil raven]

I orderd in mars, mine still coming sep 💀

[ripe shell]

💀

[agile tusk]

i ordered that day wooting 80he was announced and it says arriving in sept on my acc

[valid comet]

my 80HE august 20 to september 2

[sleek lynx]

if i'm getting my own switches, how many do i need to buy?

[warm anvil]

90 I believe

Could be wrong

[atomic brook]

does layout not matter?

either way should be slighly below 90 iirc

[hollow saffron]

i ordered two days ago and mine says early october (canada)

[drifting shuttle]

damn wish U.S. was first! Think Lekker in U.S. was one of the first.

[atomic brook]

is lekker not manufactured in hk?

[drifting shuttle]

oh I meant Lekker edition of Wooting Two HE, lol.

[atomic brook]

oh icic

[valid comet]

as low as 84 and as high as 88, so a 90x pack should be good

hope that helps

for the 80HE that is

you will need more than 90 switches for the Two HE but I think those will always come with switches unless they refresh it to make it moddable

[atomic brook]

what keycaps look clean?

any suggestions?

[valid comet]

any wob or bow set

I saw a video on DCX WOB and they looked and sounded nice compared to GMK WOB

[atomic brook]

I do want to try having some colour tho

[valid comet]

check wuque or kbdfans or kprepublic

then you can do some window shopping

[atomic brook]

alright will do, tks

needs to be mx compatible keycaps rite?

[valid comet]

yeah

i mean most caps are MX anyway

just over a month for me to go

and I will get my 80HE!

[atomic brook]

oof kbdfans is ex

even i cant justify $100 for plastic

[slender oracle]

how do i get the eu-brug role

nvm found it

[atomic brook]

should be in rewards in the wooting hub

https://hub.wooting.io/my/rewards

[slender oracle]

yea thanks

[wet peak]

om the batch update for the 80he it says they arrive at Netherlands 15 august and 80% of customers will get it in 5 days right?

that means my 80he prob wil arrive 20th august

[tight cypress]

Or, you can, you know, check the estimated date in hub https://hub.wooting.io/my/orders

[warped mountain]

hello when is the release date of this kb? i havent ordered yet so i cant check

also is pre order price and price when released the same or i can get it cheaper for pre order?

[tight cypress]

Will arrive to warehouses in mid-to-late August #📦│batch_updates message

[upbeat berry]

its the same

[tight cypress]

Pre-order price is the same as usual price

[warped mountain]

wow so soon already

thank u

[jade widget]

that's for batch 1, if you order now you'll be in batch 2 which will arrive at the warehouse ~4 weeks after that

[obsidian kelp]

Yo, maybe a little bit of a weird question but what benefits does the "Brass bottom case" has for the "Wooting UwU" besides the look of it?

[atomic brook]

sound, look, durability, feel

the usual

[obsidian kelp]

ok perfect

thanks

[inland burrow]

Any update on a sound test for the zinc alloy case?

[buoyant solstice]

Not yet.

[rain zodiac]

do we know anything about more case options like the alumaze or anything else for the 80he ?

[buoyant solstice]

The Alumaze is a 60HE thing. We have the Zinc Alloy cases for the 80HE.
As for third party cases, that won't be possible till he 80HE ships out.

[nova nexus]

*will get shipped in the first 5 days

[wet peak]

shipping from Netherlands to Denmark wont take a long time i think

[buoyant solstice]

Typically around 3 business days

[low token]

I had my keyboard in around 4 days after it got to nl werehouse

[merry grotto]

from NL to DE/DK/ near countries shipping is super fast - I was suprised

[low token]

So it should be faster

[buoyant solstice]

Like I said - About 3 business days to Denmark from experience.

Once you have tracking.

[zealous oak]

Was 80he north facing led? Just to take in count because I want to buy new keycaps

[buoyant solstice]

All of our boards are north facing 🙂

[zealous oak]

Ok thanks

[naive stirrup]

Bro its been like that for 10 days

[buoyant solstice]

Yes?

[naive stirrup]

I want my keyboard!

[buoyant solstice]

Keyboards are not produced daily. It's all done in bulk together for the entire batch.

[naive stirrup]

Why you prepare so long to begin creating it

[buoyant solstice]

Because it's a long process.

#📦│batch_updates message
Here's the latest update on the 80HE batches.

[naive stirrup]

Are you waiting for more people to buy my type of keyboard?

If they dont buy it i will wait forever

[buoyant solstice]

Not how it works at all. Read the update 🙂

[naive stirrup]

I am not good english. Please tell me in short; what happened

[bright jewel]

nothing "happened", just the next step in mass keyboard production

[naive stirrup]

I wish to extend my deepest gratitude for your sagacious elucidation on the aforementioned subject matter. Your perspicacious insights and erudite exposition have profoundly augmented my comprehension and elucidated complexities heretofore shrouded in obfuscation. The profundity of your knowledge and the clarity with which you imparted it are nothing short of awe-inspiring. Your discourse has been an invaluable beacon of enlightenment, guiding my intellectual pursuits with unparalleled precision.

[bright jewel]

english not good, types an essay

[naive stirrup]

This is me when I get my keyboard

[bright jewel]

be strong a little longer

[stray adder]

I ordered my keyboard during the founders campaign in march and I don’t have it yet, you’ll be okay @naive stirrup

[teal wave]

So if order the 80he now i should expect to get it in september right?

[buoyant solstice]

October.

[teal wave]

Damn, it says mid september on the website

[nova nexus]

Arrival at warehouse is not the same as delivery to your door

[stray adder]

The staff here is super quick they keep beating me to the answers that’s awesome

[teal wave]

How much delivery time are you guys factoring in lmao

[buoyant solstice]

A realistic one. Your order is unlikely to be packed within a couple of days due to the sheer bulk of orders all going out at once, couriers are typically a bit slower than estimates.

[teal wave]

Alright

[pallid wind]

hello

[hushed sphinx]

It's neat how they seem to care here

I'm real pumped for mine ❤️

My current keyboard is starting to limit me on rhythm games

[dim sierra]

[naive adder]

Na fr, we’ve been waiting way longer, little buddy gon b alright

[stray adder]

On the upside I have a new mouse pad that should be here around the same time as my keyboard so it’ll be like a mini setup overhaul

[naive adder]

Same

I bought 2 new artisan mousepads, the new viper v3 pro and I’ll be waitin for my 80 he to complete my setup

[dawn merlin]

I'm curious about the 8k.. I just backed atm to my Corsair K65 mini and Razer Viper 8k...
And on OSU and other games I get heavy ms increases (input) + frame drops/lag/spike a like..
Actually I'm riding a R7 5800X, 32 GB G.Skill TridenZ on a MPG Wifi Edge with a RTX4070Ti.

Why does the polling rates ruin the gaming experience? Will it be the same with the 80he?
It should be clarified before people go nuts about how "bad" wooting/80he is..

[tight cypress]

Mice 8k and keyboard's 8k polling is not the same

[dawn merlin]

true.. but both will give me huge issues.. and make it not enjoyable..

[tidal prawn]

mouse 8k sending and updating is rather cpu heavy.

[dawn merlin]

K65 mini got 4k and I can only use both @1k

[lime falcon]

you can decrease polling rate

1k/2k/4k/8k

[tidal prawn]

You actually send everything as you move mouse even a little and it keeps updating and polling it. If you really swing mouse around you can literally see cpu usage go up, even at normal 1k mouse

not to mention 8k, it actually is not often recommended even because most users don't see the difference and it can affect other performance

[tight cypress]

Pretty weird though, I have 3600X with 32GB-3200 and I have no issues with 8k on my dav3 whatsoever

[dawn merlin]

The thing is.. even at 2k I got heavy notable missactions and performance issues..

[lime falcon]

keyboard will be fine

[tidal prawn]

I mean, you could just look at your cpu usage and see if it's at heavy levels. Hard to troubleshoot anyones unique case as a random person in the internet.

[naive adder]

What’s your cpu

[dawn merlin]

true.. but many people report about it.. I tried to fix it.. and the only real fix was 1k polling for both

[lime falcon]

ur os needs to be optimized

no way you have lag spikes on that pc

[dawn merlin]

I tried fresh W10 and W11

[bold obsidian]

have you tried 8k in osu?

[lime falcon]

thats not enough you need to optimize it

[dawn merlin]

yeah, thats my biggest issue.. on osu

[bold obsidian]

i was asking the person who said they dont have issues

[dawn merlin]

sry

[bold obsidian]

i also have issues with high polling rate in osu

[tidal prawn]

What windows you got?

[naive adder]

Oh I didn’t read the whole thing mb

[tight cypress]

I did, but I don't see how it's relevant

[naive adder]

I use 8k fine on my 7800x3d

[teal wave]

When do they stop preorders for an ongoing batch? Is it just when a certain amount of orders are reached? Asking because i'd probably be able to preorder in a week and don't also want to miss the september/october batch

[bold obsidian]

because thats what @dawn merlin was having issues with

[lime falcon]

try atlasos

[buoyant solstice]

When/If it fills up.

[bold obsidian]

on osu you can literally notice your frametiming change when you move a mouse above 1 khz

[tidal prawn]

I think older windows versions had issues with high poll rates, all the way to bios matters that you could try to turn off, and precise movement event windows setup, but these should have been fixed in windows 11 update somewhere.

[tight cypress]

DO NOT try custom Windows

[tidal prawn]

So wonder if you by chance still have windows 10

[teal wave]

So there is no way to know is there

[buoyant solstice]

Every batch is for X amount of products. Once they're all spoken for, we plan and open up a new production batch, which has a later delivery date.

[buoyant solstice]

Place order sooner, get order sooner.

[lime falcon]

huh

[dawn merlin]

is it legit in terms of security and privacy? o.O

[lime falcon]

yes its open source

[teal wave]

Yeh but i gotta refund my 60he+ first

[lime falcon]

you run it over your current windows

its not an iso

[dawn merlin]

same on Overwatch, DotA, CS, Valorant, Fortnite.. (hardware monitoring)
Was unplayable with higher then 1k

[tidal prawn]

Could try to check your usb drivers are updated too.

[tight cypress]

It doesn't matter it's open source
It strips OS from critical functions, making it very vulnerable

[lime falcon]

nope, thats not the case with atlas

i dont know about other custom os, but atlas is fine

[dawn merlin]

I was always fine with that.. until XP I always modded af

[tight cypress]

It is exactly the case with Atlas OS

[bold obsidian]

yeah i think most games are still pretty bad about handling high polling rate even with a decent am4 cpu

[lime falcon]

then youre talking about older versions

[dawn merlin]

ohh i c

[bold obsidian]

i have 7800x3d and still get stuttering

[dawn merlin]

actually.. more functions = more vulnerable issues..

[buoyant solstice]

Literally how 😄

[bold obsidian]

does anyone know if intel systems tend to handle high polling rate better?

[buoyant solstice]

It's arguably in the top five of CPUs for gaming in existence right now 😄

[tidal prawn]

No, if anything windows OS older versions had issue for polling, but it was fixed in windows 11 somewhere last year.

[lime falcon]

main problem for you is unoptimized os, not the cpu

[dawn merlin]

I'm just wondering if it's about CPU/MB handling.. or game optimisation.. ?

[lime falcon]

no way youre lagging on 7800x3d 💀

[bold obsidian]

its usually about game optimisation but it depends

[bold obsidian]

frametiming changing isnt the same as lagging really

its worse

[valid comet]

windows is pain

[dawn merlin]

it's all about the polling.. and windows.. :x

[lime falcon]

im on win10, 5600x, 32gb ram and my polling is very stable

even 8k

[tidal prawn]

Windows OS version, CPU but if you got powerful cpu then that's off the table in general, next is USB (you will want USB 3.0 at least for mouse) and driver versions, etc. That's the basic list I have ever had to figure out

[naive adder]

G sync?

[bold obsidian]

nah i dont use gsync with osu

[naive adder]

Not if your monitor is constantly matching your fps

[bold obsidian]

i use ulmb2 since my fps is high

[dawn merlin]

gsync actually fixes stuff for me.. when u have a real gsync monitor

[naive adder]

I have a pg27aqn

[tight cypress]

Fresh Windows you only need to keep up to date and without bloat software, like 3rd party anti-virus, gaming-focused software like Armoury Crate or similar etc.
You don't need to optimize it further
In vast majority of cases Windows is slow because of sheer amount of software running in background

[naive adder]

And 7800x3d and I don’t feel no stutter

[naive adder]

Makes sense

[bold obsidian]

@naive adder in what game?

[naive adder]

What monitor you got

[bold obsidian]

same monitor

but i have two other monitors plugged in

[naive adder]

Oh na

[dawn merlin]

nope.. I dont use that stuff.. just fresh install, updated, steam and let's go

[naive adder]

I use one

[wind tiger]

r

[lime falcon]

most of the time stock windows is the main problem for high polling, im not saying that all have that problem but yeah

also bios settings

[bold obsidian]

i have expo and pbo on

[valid comet]

PG27AQN?

[naive adder]

Yes

[bold obsidian]

yes

i still wonder if osu would be more enjoyable on a 240hz oled instead

[valid comet]

maybe, I mean I yried the AQDM before the AQN

honestly i didnt notice much of a difference

[naive adder]

Why not the 360 hz oleds

[bold obsidian]

i think ive heard oled causes less eye strain than ulmb2 after long sessions

@naive adder 480hz oled

[valid comet]

because I play geometry dash, thr difference between the AQDM (OLED) and AQN (ULMB 2) are astronomical because of the blur reduction tech

[naive adder]

I’m waiting for that one ngl

[valid comet]

been using my PG27AQN for a year now (as of July 17 2023)

[naive adder]

Ulmb2 gives more motion clarity than a 240hz oled

[valid comet]

that varies from person to person

[bold obsidian]

i pretty much only try hard in osu so the picture quality of the oled would be more important perhaps

[naive adder]

I want an oled but I don’t wanna babysit it to not get burn in, plus also those oleds be really dim in brightness

[valid comet]

ULMB 2 causes 0 eye strain for me

[bold obsidian]

since i play other singleplayer games

[naive adder]

Oh okay

Picture quality is amazing on oleds

[bold obsidian]

i know people that watch stuff like twitch on their oleds and have the streamer's overlays burnt in some oleds get it bad and others are fine

[naive adder]

My friend has the 360 hz Alienware QD oled, was blown away ngl

[valid comet]

i agree yes IPS has nothing on OLEDs In terms of picture quality and colors

[bold obsidian]

@naive adder do you know about rtings burn-in study?

[naive adder]

Yep

[bold obsidian]

aight good

[valid comet]

i need blur reduction tech with my monitor, unless its like a stupidly fast panel that aproaches 1kHz

thats how much I need blur reduction

[bold obsidian]

wait for 2030 blurbusters/asus/nvidia are on it

[atomic brook]

whats the minimum polling rate?

[valid comet]

even a 1440p 240Hz OLED for sidescrollers and motion clarity just doesnt cut it for me, sample and holding just isnt ok

are there any OLEDs that can do something like BFI without requiring 2 successive frames?

actually Im moving to #🔌│tech

[worn compass]

Wait till you try dyac :D

[bold obsidian]

but i like 1440p

[worn compass]

Lmao, wouldn’t recommend benq monitors anyways if you already own Oled monitors

I personally own one but I never use the Dyac feature cause I want the lowest latency possible but when I was using it it was really good

[worn compass]

You run 1440p daily? Damn what are your pc specs

[bold obsidian]

4080 and 7800x3d

[worn compass]

Oooo that’s really nice

I run a 3070 with a 5800x3D

4080 is one of my dream cards just because it’s at a reasonable price and the most I’d pay for a gpu

I think 2k for a gpu is absurd

[naive adder]

Same as me

[valid comet]

I tried ZOWIE by BenQ back in december of 2016 and it was GOATED pre DyAc era

[naive adder]

Yeah blame China for that

4090 was 1.6k at release

[bold obsidian]

bro china only got 4090D whatchu saying

[celest karma]

I didn't know 3D v-cache was a thing so I adopted early and got the 7950x and 4080

[worn compass]

Benq monitors are so good if you just ignore the TN Panel lol

[naive adder]

Why did you think they made that?

[celest karma]

I paid 200 more for less fps lol

[valid comet]

been using TN for most of my life im used to it lol

should we move to #🔌│tech

[bold obsidian]

cause of export regulations

my 4080 was only like $1k though

[naive adder]

The 4090D is a washed down version of the 4090

“The US Department of Commerce banned the sale of Nvidia's RTX 4090 graphics card to China in October 2023 due to its theoretical AI performance”

[bold obsidian]

yes because nvidia wasnt allowed to ship 4090s anymore due to tariffs

[worn compass]

I’ve only ever had Tn panel, and tbh the only thing that’ll get me to change from it is an Oled display cause that’s the only kind of display that can beat how fast Tn panels are

[buoyant solstice]

Tariffs? No. Embargo? Yes.

[naive adder]

The 4090D is a work around but it isn’t as good as the original

[bold obsidian]

theoretical AI performance

im confused how its china's fault though

[balmy lynx]

You have to be crazy to buy a 4090

[naive adder]

I love my 7800x3d ngl

[balmy lynx]

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/she-cray-cray-cray-crazy-judging-you-nope-gif-8420032

[naive adder]

It’s a long story but basically China was buying all the 4090s to do their AI innovations due to how strong the original 4090 was, and the USA saw thay as a problem, it’s also why the 4090 was always out of stock and/or the prices were rising

[worn compass]

Do you know how much faster it is compared to the 7 5800x3D cause I’ve been debating on an upgrade or not cuz it might not be worth it at all since I’d have to entirely upgrade to am5

[naive adder]

Nvidia was glad to sell to them because that’s where they gain most of their money now, in the AI market, so when it got banned they needed to find a way around the ban

Hence the 4090D

Just for china

[bold obsidian]

yeah i cant pretend to care about scary theoretical AI innovations when my government is literally actively complicent in far worse things

[naive adder]

Not worth it tbh, 5800x3d is already really good, I’d invest that money in a better gpu, and plus the 9000x3d series is almost here so yeah

[naive adder]

😭😭

[worn compass]

That’s what I was thinking, since I already have an 850watt power supply I might as well by a better gpu

[naive adder]

Yep

[bold obsidian]

X3D cpus are crazy low power use

[naive adder]

Yeah

Very efficient

[bold obsidian]

you could run a 4070ti and 7800x3d on 450w or so

[naive adder]

I bought a crazy cooler and psu at first cause I thought I was gonna go intel but I went amd just for the x3d

[worn compass]

X3D models are so goated

[bold obsidian]

good cooler is still nice for the x3d cause they still run a bit hot and still throttling a bit

but you can undervolt and such

[naive adder]

Yeah that’s why I didn’t mind too much

With an overkill cooler

Originally was going with a 14900k

[valid comet]

I would get an RTX 7070 or RTX 8070 praying it has more than 16GB with 4080+ level perf at 200W by then, along with a x16 interface, with a RYZEN X3D CPU on CAMM on a Mini ITX Platform (6 years from now)

[buoyant solstice]

They run as hot as they can get, while overclocking automatically.

Doesn't mean you have a cooling problem.

[bold obsidian]

rtx 7070?

[valid comet]

in 6 years

[bold obsidian]

oh

yeah i was confused

[naive adder]

With the way nVIDIA goin rn

Finna cost a fortune

[worn compass]

Do yall throw your cpu boxes or just keep them around lmao

[naive adder]

💀😭

[buoyant solstice]

I keep them to make it easier to resell (or RMA)

[bold obsidian]

i have all my part boxes still

[naive adder]

I keep all my pc boxes

[bold obsidian]

always keep your case box!!

[naive adder]

Same

[valid comet]

same

plus they look nice

[bold obsidian]

perfect sized cardboard box for transportation

[naive adder]

Looking at your gpu just made me realize again how beefy the 40 series gpu are

[worn compass]

And I thought my 3070 was big wth

[upbeat berry]

i throw everything except the case box (and its foam), gpu box (and foam) and mobo box (empties out and stuffed with all manuals/screw bags and what not from all things)

[valid comet]

40 series FE GPUs have crazy thermal engineering

[naive adder]

Made sure I installed that anti sag bracket instantly

[valid comet]

I have a lot of respect for the thermal engineers

[worn compass]

I’m can’t wait for my 80he I can’t explain how much I hate my current keyboard the upgrade is gonna be so worth it😭

It’s a $5 100% membrane keyboard that a friend gave to me cause he had no use for it

[naive adder]

I’ve had my current keyboard for many years now, it’s literally on its last life 😭

[upbeat berry]

thats not a 5$ membrance board

[valid comet]

im excited too

[worn compass]

I just assumed cause the friend said it was from 5 and below

[upbeat berry]

is there a sticker on the back?

[worn compass]

This one

Whoops

Sent it sideways

[upbeat berry]

30usd in walmart

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Bugha-Exclusive-RGB-LED-USB-Gaming-Keyboard-for-PC/3141437932

[worn compass]

you can buy better keyboards for $30 wth

atleast I got it for free

[valid comet]

thats good

[worn compass]

It's having a problem where the Windows key gets stuck

it's not physically stuck but it registers as it's always pushed down so I have too spam it until it stops doing that

[lunar dragon]

pft, this is what I'm gaming with while waiting for my 80HE

Logitech Pebble Keys 2... and it is NOT made for gaming, that is for sure xD

[worn compass]

this looks straight out of the early 2000's lol

idk if it's better or worse

[lunar dragon]

It's small and beatufiul, but it's also membrane (and not a good one), and it's bluetooth. It's really made for iPads and such.

[worn compass]

is more compact form is defnitely wayyy better

I do NOT need numb pad, only time I use it is for my windows pin on boot up

[lunar dragon]

Nobody uses numpad these days (and here comes that 1 person in the world, who does.. telling me that a lot of people still do) xD

[bold obsidian]

i got a q0 max with baby kangaroo 2.0s and its so much nicer to press on than my q1 he

[lunar dragon]

I'd still like to bind to numpad keys though, as to e.g. Streamdeck etc. Easy way to ensure no mispresses

[bold obsidian]

it's nice to have the smaller form factor with bluetooth so i can get the keyboard completely out of the way sometimes

[worn compass]

I could see seperate dedicated num pad being useful but I don't want it on my keyboard!!!!!

[bold obsidian]

numpad on the left

[buoyant solstice]

Thankfully Wootility is very configurable 😄

[worn compass]

awesome sauce, Thank you Wootility. Very cool.

B)

[ripe shell]

what games do you play with that

[lunar dragon]

Any game, PUBG mostly atm.

[lunar dragon]

Indeed, but I did figure you could do it in the software, so ye 🙂

[civic nymph]

Does the 80he come with a carry case?

[red heart]

If you buy it with zinc alloy case

All zinc cases come with travel case

If you buy plastic you will have to get the travel case separately

[civic nymph]

OK awesome I got the raw zinc alloy case

[proven bone]

it probably has some specific smell that wont go away

[worn compass]

Luckily no. I think…

[wispy trellis]

from what keyboards are you guys coming from im using a nice logitech mx mechanical TKL and it's actually great for working

[verbal solar]

G pro

[vagrant haven]

The italicized numpad layout

[worn compass]

how do you get the "80he but only got 77.5%" role? did I miss out on something

[bright jewel]

if you were a founder you can link your discord to your hub

otherwise you cant have it

[worn compass]

ohhh

I was debating so hard on being a founder, but I guess I miss the opportunity

I was unsure on either the 60he or 80he at the time

[bright jewel]

maybe for a future project

at least u will get the keyboard

[worn compass]

yeah

[hollow saffron]

My 80HE doesn’t get here until October… should I get a 60 in the meantime 😭

[worn compass]

I'm already really happy with the pre order lol

[worn compass]

just wait the time

I've waited longer for youtooz plushies

they have a watercooling recommendation.. and watercooling means 240mm+ (best arctic.. the have a bigger radiator)

[verbal solar]

hey guys I have a wooting 60 rn but should I get an 80he just for performance wise?

[jade widget]

For performance? No

[upbeat crow]

do it. feed the wooting beast.

(no dont do it)

[wispy trellis]

some weaks ago i bought a sound blaster x4 as a "big kno" because the he80 had no knob..

MAN BEST DECISION EVER

-Seamlessly switches betwean headset in direkt mode and speakers with EQ via one button press saves loudness for both and the knob is realky nice to use too

don't miss the knob ever again.. SADLY i although bought a 500€ headphone because of that.. but that's a other story

[pastel edge]

Which headphones did you get?

[wispy trellis]

Hifiman Ananda Nano

sounds actually awsome on the x4 its not hard to drive anyway

[ebon night]

are you using a dac & amp or just that external sound card?

[wispy trellis]

just the x4 i had at work a better one but i honestly don't think its worth it the x4 runs it nicely

scarlet 2i2

[ebon night]

Yea, i have 4 really high end headphones and use a good amp/dac to drive them. I really recommend the jdslabs atom line for amazing price for quality.

[worn compass]

I dont understand the keyboard knob trend it looks dumb to me

ik it has a function

I just think it looks weird

[ebon night]

I built a deej to have physical controls on separate audio sources and love it. https://github.com/omriharel/deej

[wispy trellis]

im using software for that and maped a macro key on it its usaly a one adjusted setting that stays that way and needs only slight corrections

but i understand the "charm" it has 🙂

[cold matrix]

Can you recommend me O-Rings with the right fit to buy? I want it dead silent and a lower actuation range of only 3mm.

[wispy trellis]

a good gasked should make orings useless

but i hightlky doubt the wooting 80he will hafe that

is the gasked "bouncy"? MansEn?

[buoyant solstice]

See #🪛│modding_faq

MansEn doesn't find the keyboard bouncy, even if he pushes down hard on the switch plate.

[wispy trellis]

thanks quacky snappy

[buoyant solstice]

[wispy trellis]

we had those quacky snappys in front of the company im working for..

really furiating about a bench

[fallen epoch]

https://tenor.com/view/duck-quack-squawk-squawking-honk-gif-19638612

[wispy trellis]

it's a bit sad to hear that the main purpos of a gasked (making it bouncy ) is not met

Gasket mounting in keyboards serves these main purposes:

Better Typing Feel: Provides a cushioned, softer typing experience.
Noise Reduction: Dampens typing sounds by absorbing vibrations.
Vibration Control: Minimizes vibrations for a more stable typing experience.
Increased Comfort: Offers flexibility, reducing finger fatigue during long typing sessions.
Overall, it only enchances sound of typing and not feel in wootings gasked cry

[warm anvil]

I feel like we never have gasket implemented perfectly in prebuilt keyboards

[wispy trellis]

keychron q1 did a good job didn't it?

[warm anvil]

Keychron is different tbf

Moreso gaming keyboards

[young pagoda]

I love my akko/monsgeek

[warm anvil]

It just doesn’t really go well

[young pagoda]

Oh gaming, yeah

[obsidian kelp]

Does the Wooting UwU also takes like 3months to arrive or is it just for the full keyboards?

[tight cypress]

Just for the 80HE, it's still in production

[obsidian kelp]

Ah okay thanks, i was wondering

[tight cypress]

Usually it's about a month if the keyboard is not in stock or few days if it is

[obsidian kelp]

So usually the Wooting UwU is always in stock?

[tight cypress]

Usually yes, it's more of a niche product

[obsidian kelp]

ok sounds very good

[south dragon]

hi.. if i order the 80he tomorrow on 17 july 2024, how many days maximum do i have to wait for it to arrive in Italy? and thank u

[sleek lynx]

I’d say 4 months

[low token]

It would be in october

[abstract kelp]

until when can i pre-order the 80he?

[oak jungle]

now

you could 2 months of we lucky

oct is the date

[low token]

You are buying it in batches. Unless it is in stock

[sudden frost]

when will my wooting 80 he arrive if i pre orded the keyboard 2weeks ago? WIll it also arrive in october?

[low token]

If you are in 2nd batch

[naive adder]

It should give you the estimate delivery date

[oak jungle]

and you will suffer with us waiting months

[vital turret]

Thanks

[low token]

We gonna help u

[atomic brook]

oh ya have to ask

what yall using the led for?

[sullen sand]

Probably look at r/mk

[wraith oak]

is there a big deference between pcr plastic and zinc alloy

[oak jungle]

JUST SOUND

most of us use headset so kinda pointless

caring about the sound

[near niche]

it matters if you don't want to wake up the kids.

[ebon sluice]

weight and resale value

[jade widget]

And coolness factor

[wraith oak]

right so alloy cooler

[long zephyr]

If there's an intruder the zinc will take them out

[wraith oak]

But like it’s so expensive

Sound isn’t really an issue for me, its more I don’t want to to be sliding around

[jade widget]

It has rubber feet it ain't sliding regardless

[spark trail]

guys question. I play cs2 very regularaly and I heard about the snap tap razor keybooard is using. I am using a wooting 60he currently and does this keyboard have the capability to do that or do i need to order the 80he?

For the counter strafe keybind

[lime falcon]

if they add something like snap tap it will be on 60he too

and all wooting keyboards

[spark trail]

@lime falcon ty homie. So currently there is no way to keybind that at the moment correcT?

[lime falcon]

there is no snap tap option for wooting

[lime aspen]

Snap tap is still not entirely known if it will be bannable or not/allowed in tournaments yet

[lime falcon]

you can use rappy snappy it will help with strafes in cs

[spark trail]

Ahh ok

[delicate dove]

Ive been hearing from people in razer that theyve been getting banned from valorant for using snap tap anecdotes tho

[lime aspen]

If it is decided that it's allowed wooting might add it

[spark trail]

no kidding lol

[lime falcon]

really

[spark trail]

so we should wait and see what happens

[delicate dove]

Yeah in razer discussion discord

[lime falcon]

lmao

[spark trail]

rofl

[delicate dove]

Yeah would definitely wait

[spark trail]

im surpirsed people in valo got banned since counter strafe barely exists

[lime aspen]

Probably just gets detected as a macro

So they get banned (if that's truthful)

[spark trail]

thats hilarious lol

[lime falcon]

i mean

not surprised, literally built in macro

[spark trail]

damn thats crazy

[delicate dove]

Yeah its a macro lol

[lime falcon]

@wet bone

[spark trail]

so whats this rappy snappy about?

[lime falcon]

are you banned fr

[lime falcon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uzv4bmtir3k

[spark trail]

thx big dog ill check it out

u guys play cs2?

[lime falcon]

rarely these days

[spark trail]

this will work for the 60he shafy?

[lime falcon]

yes

[spark trail]

thats sick

[midnight iron]

this guy is literally a troll though

[delicate dove]

Yeah i figured some of them were lol

[midnight iron]

he doesn't have either and he's been trolling wooting discord saying razer is better randomly to try instigate fights

[lime falcon]

lmfao

[midnight iron]

he's just trying to instigate both sides

[lime falcon]

bro has nothing to do smh 😭

[harsh agate]

what does snap tap do

like seriously

[lime falcon]

taps snap

[harsh agate]

what

[atomic brook]

snappy tappy

[lime falcon]

https://youtu.be/lxax0ltc3zw?si=hx76fTQm65a5nesB

[atomic brook]

imagine a button in tekken that does a combo for u

[harsh agate]

oh wait, is this the one where basically you change directions without having to release the other key?

[atomic brook]

basically that but for movement

[harsh agate]

isnt that just what rappy snappy does

[atomic brook]

no

actually

depends on ur perspective

[harsh agate]

okay well i just watched this

thats kinda fucked icl

[lime aspen]

Rappy snappy does it completely differently

[harsh agate]

how does it

[lime aspen]

Idk how to explain it

[atomic brook]

"It does matter. Something being Absolute 0 (Snap Tap) at hardware/firmware level is fundamentally different to something inherently reliant on human having to manually Lift their finger, even that tiny amount because brain synapse process has to happen in the body of that person.

Meaning 2 actions are going on simultaneously (Counter Strafe Key press + Lifting off previous movement Key).
With Snap Tap there is only 1 action, press the Counter strafe Key and that is it, the previous key is shut-off BY the Hardware, NOT human manual action.

So actuation distance matters, something even if small (it's not literal plank length, lets not be silly) is not the same as 0."

stolen from reddit

basically for snap tap

u dont even need to lift ur finger

tldr: snap tap removes 1 physical action you need to do

[harsh agate]

ohh right

they checked tho with major companies no?

[atomic brook]

nope lmao

[harsh agate]

like ESL and shit, they said it was okay

[harsh agate]

no they did, im certain

[atomic brook]

it is under regulation ya

[harsh agate]

id think its more of an ethical issue that has changed the perspective

[atomic brook]

but its a grey area + players dont like it

[harsh agate]

built in macros? its like the bloody mouse

[kindred mountain]

Does anyone know if the lekker springs are required for the gateron jades or if any switch springs will work?

[atomic brook]

no why would it?

[kindred mountain]

Wanna make giga heavies

[atomic brook]

just make sure its compatible

[harsh agate]

why do you want heavy keys

[kindred mountain]

Cause lekker are a different shape and I don't know if jades are the same

[harsh agate]

hand training

[atomic brook]

cerakey?

or any heavier keycaps

[kindred mountain]

/shrug I like it I have 370g switches in my main kb atm lmao

[atomic brook]

what?

[harsh agate]

370?

[kindred mountain]

It's nice for tactility

[harsh agate]

are you using heavy keycaps?

[kindred mountain]

Just some kat cyberspace

[harsh agate]

so like normal ABS

[kindred mountain]

Ya

[harsh agate]

that sounds awful wtf

[atomic brook]

nah fam

why you doing HIIT everytime you using your computer

[kindred mountain]

I'm weird but I like it, modded the clickbars with thicker wire and got 300g springs for kailh speed navies,, last measurement was 370g, I just wanna do like 100g for the wooting I just bought and tryna figure out if I should go lekker or gateron jade and which springs are needed

It's nice for typing experience

I still do like 130 wpm when I need to

[harsh agate]

jade or lekker is preference

but springs heavy… yikes

[kindred mountain]

I saw some people say the jades were more stable with better tolerances or something

[atomic brook]

brother 370 isnt heavy

[kindred mountain]

No idea if tru or not

[atomic brook]

100 is heavy

[kindred mountain]

I still have the 1.5kg spring in a switch too

It's my media pause button

[harsh agate]

it is much more stable and less rattle

i think the v2 or something fixed those issues

[harsh agate]

370 INSANE

[harsh agate]

stop the cap, i gotta see it

[kindred mountain]

I'll probably just stick with the v2s then and figure it out later if I have issues

[sterile dagger]

It'll be interesting to see if the jades will have issues with the stem when not bought from Wooting

[kindred mountain]

How do u want me to show u

[harsh agate]

im saying it as an expression, but do know that the 1.5kg spring has caused the PCB to stop working overtime due to the flex

[harsh agate]

they just buy it from gateron and keep it to sell, they dont do anything

[kindred mountain]

I think it's fine cause it's only used once in a while to pause music when I'm tabbed out

1.5kg is ridiculous

[jade widget]

1500 is like your keycap is flying off the board on the return kind of spring weight

[kindred mountain]

Prolly pretty close, it's genuinely hard to press xD, for typing the 370g clickies are bis tho

100g should be pretty perfect for gaming tho

[sterile dagger]

I believe Wooting's might have modded their stems? I could be wrong

[atomic brook]

im not sure either

best to ask a mod

[sterile dagger]

I swore I saw something about it earlier

[jade widget]

They do not

[kindred mountain]

Are lekker v2 and jade the two best options btw?

[atomic brook]

uhhh

[jade widget]

Judge is out on lekker v2 since it hasn't come out yet

[atomic brook]

no there are other options

[sterile dagger]

I guess not, but the Jades from Wooting do come with long pole stabs

[jade widget]

But atm I'd say jades and raw HE

All jades are "long pole" but they're not really long pole

[atomic brook]

how much is raw he btw?

like 50 cents right?

[lime falcon]

v2 gonna be nice

[jade widget]

They're just closed bottom vs non closed bottom

[kindred mountain]

.48 it seems like

I just got the v2s since it was on wootings site so why not just curious if it's worth preording others to try

[atomic brook]

ya v2 is solid

[jade widget]

V2s are just lekker v1s with tighter tolerances for less stem wobble

[atomic brook]

considering its price

but feel free to try others

the sound demo for v2 did sound better than expected

but iirc they said they will do a more detailed sound demo for each case soon

[kindred mountain]

Ill just wait then and try it out when I get them, I'll drop the 100g sound test eventually xD when kb arrives

[atomic brook]

^ 1.5kg sound test pls

[wet bone]

Nope, messing with Razer fans

[lime falcon]

[atomic brook]

ok maybe I'm just hating

but an ai help channels feels wrong

from what I've seen it's pretty bad at actually helping

[frigid ether]

how tall is the 80HE plastic case? Im trying to 3d print a case for a numpad im making and would like it to somewhat match my 80HE when it arrives. how tall it is at the front and back would be great. I know its a 2.8 degree angle

[tight cypress]

I'd wait for your 80HE, after first batch is shipped, 80HE's STL design files will be available on Github repo

https://github.com/WootingKb/wooting-design

[frigid ether]

mm thats nice but I kinda need something now. Ill give it a go now. ill probably need a second iteration either way. Thanks

[balmy lynx]

I don't understand why the 80HE doesnt just cut out the numpad (that can be replaced with an external one). It also cuts the keys "home" and "end"

They could even have replaced the RGB line

[pastel edge]

get 60he with external numpad then ig

[kindred mountain]

If it fits in the lekker I'll do it

[frigid ether]

I like the layout, Ill just swap some keys around for the ones I want in the config + keycaps

[kindred mountain]

I'm just gonna run two keyboards xD one for work/typing and one for gamin

[balmy lynx]

So that i lose even more keys?

I got the two he tho

[pastel edge]

well then, seems that you are sorted

[tight cypress]

To be honest... Think about how often do you use Pause, Scroll Lock or Insert for that matter
And it makes the keyboard a bit narrower too

[upbeat berry]

the idea is that this way no special caps are needed while reducing size. every 80he will get a full TKL keycap set so if you dont want pgup/dn you can just remove them and put home/end there. if you put 2 keys where the led bar is you need special keycap sets as the row heights wouldnt be correct in normal sets.

[balmy lynx]

I see, I am used to full sized, so no reason to have less keys for me

[buoyant solstice]

fewer

[dire ivy]

my friend has a zinc allergy, is the zinc alloy case going to cause him any problems

[buoyant solstice]

Impossible to say. While there is a sealing coat on top of the case, that doesn't mean it can't be less or none in places or wear down over time enough to touch the raw zinc.

[warm bane]

What is the point of the LED bar, always struck me as just being there to fill space

[buoyant solstice]

Helps tell you what profile you're on and other things.

It's optional and all that

[red heart]

I assume most likely no but i‘d just be safe and get plastic case anyway

[tidal prawn]

Yeah. Coating and all but why play around with health matters. If it's the like that causes skin irritation or something, it's not worth it to risk such when it's a thing you use quite heavily and handle quite a lot, even if generally you may not be fiddling the case itself a ton.

But it's their choice at the end of the day.

[slender oracle]

is the 80he OEM? asking for alternate keycaps

[buoyant solstice]

Our PBT and ABS keycap sets are OEM. Takecontrol (60% only) and Kana keycaps are Cherry

[slender oracle]

ok thanks

[slender oracle]

https://amzn.eu/d/03jTdc2R are these compatible? sorry to ask

[livid cypress]

You're not supposed to eat the keyboard... /s

[steep badger]

Hello I’m new here! I’m looking at getting the 80HE soon to replace my Keychron and was wondering when the last day is to preorder? Also does anyone have recommendations where to find good shine through keycaps?

It will be available to order/pre-order for the foreseeable future, it's not going anywhere

As for keycaps, here's a list of stores https://www.alexotos.com/keyboard-vendor-list/

[reef venture]

When do i get my wooting 80he?

I Remember August no?

[tight cypress]

Hub will tell ya https://hub.wooting.io/my/orders

[steep badger]

Thank you 🙂

[reef venture]

They should go up $5, they’re wicked goood

[jolly tangle]

[sleek lynx]

Does it mean I can only get OEM? Or can I buy cherry ones

[lime falcon]

cherry

[buoyant solstice]

What does what mean?

[valid comet]

i wonder if there will be any special 80HE keycaps down the line 😳

[analog jungle]

Anyone have any cool key caps they think would fit the raw case?

[oak crater]

Now it's September =_=

[jovial palm]

I got some from AliExpress

the PBTFans one (Ronin)

was $35~

[analog jungle]

Let me take a look

Ok

[jovial palm]

I think its same factory anyways, PBTFans is expensive

[analog jungle]

these are fucking sick

[jovial palm]

might as well get from direct

[analog jungle]

All sold out

[jovial palm]

Yeah the official ones are sold out

I found them on AliExpress, seems like same thing

https://www.aliexpress.com/i/3256806868248167.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt

[crisp jungle]

is there any chance that if previous batches have excess production numbers (i.e. people cancelling orders etc) that those who just missed the first batch cutoff get moved into the first batch o_o

[lime aspen]

probably rip offs, qc might be hit or miss but could be a steal if they are good

[analog jungle]

@lime aspen i mean better than 150$

@jovial palm You have them in person from ali?

[late drum]

hey i dont really know much abt keyboards, but can i just use any keycaps i want for the 80he

[fallen epoch]

Any keycap that has this + insert. (Which is most of them)

[worn compass]

Pretty sure the whole point is the quality and how long they last as well as the sound profile it can give, also if exclusivity can factor in aswell

$150 for keycaps is quite a lot tho but it’s also kinda the standard for “premium” keycaps

[warm anvil]

Basically a normal gmk set

[worn compass]

Yeah lmao

[slow prawn]

iqunix or wooting 80he

[midnight iron]

they're different formats

iqunix is 60/63 key, wooting is 77-78 key

[valid comet]

which iqunix board

[slow prawn]

But i mean in performance

[midnight iron]

i mean they're both 8k poll/scan so there's not going to be any real difference there

i'd take wooting any day because they're much better with frequent software additions, UI updates and longer warranty etc but if you mean purely per key latency the iqunix seems on par

[lime falcon]

yea wooting clears

but that keyboard is also nice

ez63 right?

[valid comet]

do the ez60 and ez63 do FULL 8k parallel scanning too

[lime falcon]

probably yea because 80he and ez63 had almost same performance when tested by wooting team

only keyboard that matches 80he performance

[high scroll]

video today?

[quasi crater]

yes

[serene halo]

do they hv a tkl

[lime falcon]

i dont think so

[atomic brook]

just watched a vid explaining why the 80he layout

have to say, very impressed with the effort into thinking about it by the team

[dusky tiger]

80he layout is perfect

[tight cypress]

Take TKL, yeet unused keys like Pause or Scroll Lock, so that your keyboard will be narrower, it's great

[balmy lynx]

I like this layout

[valid comet]

Likewise

[valid comet]

I agree with this take

[dark cargo]

Vid today right

[atomic brook]

yes

as long as the last video is "14 days ago"

No it's not.

Similar but a unique design on top and bottom.

I think we may have shown it off in the computex videos? Could ask on a livestream.

When does the first batch ship?

[buoyant solstice]

#📦│batch_updates message

[buoyant solstice]

Not much incentive for us to do so. That'd just push back having stock even further.

[steep badger]

My work day just started today so got all day to wait for a video. I’m hoping that the delay doesn’t happen

Also, did they ever confirm a dark RGB bar for the black and ghost versions? I’m getting the standard black model

[fallen epoch]

This is true, every time theres a video of calder i get my professional suit on

[tight cypress]

Yup, dark one for Black ABS, Black zinc and Ghost

[steep badger]

Nice!

[tidal sleet]

not a clear answer but when 80he first batch delieveres

[tight cypress]

Depends on country and delivery method

[tidal sleet]

the first one that gets at the warehouse nvm shipping

It's going to be lost in the timeline past 31 august

[jovial cloud]

Wondering what the cable spec for the 80he is for the sake of customisation- is there any functionality or latency difference between usbc3 and usbc2? Any issues with paracord adapter combos that are seen regularly in this space?

[naive adder]

Lucky

Mine was originally in August but got delayed

[wind hollow]

yall got any keycaps you guys are looking at for the white 80 he?

[steep badger]

I’ve also been looking but Amazon has low quality options for shine through keycaps

[pseudo parrot]

the cable that comes with the 80he is a type c to c usb 2.0. that cable is sufficient for all features. third party are a bit of hit and miss

[wind hollow]

acheron spotted

[steep badger]

Wait the 80HE doesn’t use USB-C???

[ripe shell]

huh

[low token]

It does

[steep badger]

You know it lol

[steep badger]

Oh Rappy mentioned usb 2 so I got confused

[wind hollow]

usb 2.0 can be usb c

[pseudo parrot]

the cable is usb c but spec is 2.0

[low token]

You can connect it to usb a 2.0 with adapter

Oh you mean the speed

[wind hollow]

usb 2.0 means the transfer speed

[pseudo parrot]

(comes with an adapter)

[buoyant solstice]

USB-C is not a speed or compatibility standard. It is a physical standard.
HOW you use USB-C matters.

I’ve waited long enough so I’m going to preorder after work

[steep badger]

And then sell my Keychron when I get my Wooting.

I’ve been looking for some gradient shine through keycaps but it’s hard to find one

[worn compass]

Was trying to do the same a year ago, I just gave up 😭

Goodness gracious 74 days until October

[steep badger]

I found something but the low number of reviews has me worried

[worn compass]

That looks nice but it’s always got to be cautious

[steep badger]

Yup

[worn compass]

I did give up on Gradient keycaps but I ended up finding a set that I really liked but the only problem. Is that they were mad expensive

I just checked the price is going down

That’s..

Actually good

Sorry if it’s low quality I just took an SS from my phone

The price went from 150 to 70 USD

Dunno if I should wait it out to get a better price on it

[deft flax]

Where did you find those?

There’s one review though of shortening out someone’s keychron which I didn’t know was possible with keycaps

[deft flax]

Thanks

[steep badger]

[deft flax]

I have no clue but that doesn’t seem possible

[steep badger]

Ah okay. Guess their keyboard has other issues

[jovial cloud]

Thanks for the response, should target my question better - have Wooting done any latency testing regarding usb c versions, and has there been any latency testing on cable adapters?

[buoyant solstice]

I don't know about Woofing. But Wooting (that's us), know that our C to A adaptor doesn't add any latency.

[jovial cloud]

Apple autocorrect seems to think woofing is a better name lmao

[buoyant solstice]

[ripe shell]

HUH

idc im buying those they look sick

[steep badger]

Yeah it has me confused

[buoyant solstice]

A keycap cannot short a keyboard.

It only has contact with the stem of the switch.

[steep badger]

Yeah that’s what I thought

So that Amazon review is bogus then

[jovial cloud]

I’m going to err on the side of prior knowledge and just assume that a single cable is at least 2ms faster, seeing comparative results from YouTube videos testing mice

[tight cypress]

It's a passive adapter - from physics point of view it's just makes cable longer by 3cm or so

[jovial cloud]

Probably a difference closer to 1ms, then

Lower even

[tight cypress]

About 1.0715e-7 ms
Or 0.00000010715 ms

It's fully passive, there's no IC or processing there whatsoever

[spark hound]

Lightspeed through 3cm?

[modest drum]

Has anyone discussed that Tachyon mode + RGB Effects can be active on the 80he?

Is this a possibility? Or is it same static lighting + Tachyon mode

[buoyant solstice]

That'll never happen.

Because Tachyon mode literally means "disable everything to give minimal latency"

[modest drum]

Thought it might of been a possibility, so the .08 MS latency was with tachyon mode active or not active during computex?

and if so what is the delay without tachyon mode on

[buoyant solstice]

No mention of Tachyon in an 80HE context.

[modest drum]

gotcha

ty

[winged pike]

Will we see more of Walder? Like that guy 😄

[graceful shard]

Does somebody know how long the Spacebar in the German ISO Layout gonna be? Like 7u or more? Wanted to buy some artisan keycaps 😄

[buoyant solstice]

6.25u for all of our keyboards.

And 1.25u modifier keys all across the bottom row.

[graceful shard]

Thank you very much ❤️

[steep badger]

We’re getting an update video today right?

[buoyant solstice]

This weekend.

[tight skiff]

Do most keycaps have the same shape to them, just different fitting underneath?

[buoyant solstice]

Opposite

[tight skiff]

Oh ok, yeah i have no clue about that stuff haha

[buoyant solstice]

Same bottom, different tops.

[tight skiff]

Ahaaaa, And those are the names for the top shapes?

[graceful shard]

yes, if you are not that experiment friendly you should stick to Cherry or OEM

[tight skiff]

I am pretty new to that so i will probably just change out the ESC and maybe some Keys i mainly use when gaming with some funny designs in the future when my 80he comes

[rapid bear]

how long until production ?

[analog jungle]

The module includes a cable correct?

[buoyant solstice]

If you bought a case, yes

[analog jungle]

What color would Raw include?

[fallen epoch]

I think the raw case has the white cable

[lilac plaza]

just give raw cable

[lilac plaza]

Wow this looks great

[steep badger]

It does. Just worried about the quality

[lilac plaza]

PBT?

[steep badger]

Looks like it

Are there more details ofo the wrist rest for th 80HE? What's it made of?

[buoyant solstice]

Silicone.

[verbal solar]

I can’t wait

[steep badger]

What's the difference between the stock keycap and the wooting abs one?

[buoyant solstice]

https://wooting.io/post/abs-vs-pbt-what-are-the-best-keycaps

[verbal solar]

Idk I just take the more expensive

[steep badger]

lmao

I thought PBT were always the best one

[buoyant solstice]

Material wise it typically is.

But cheap PBT is worse than great ABS.

[verbal solar]

Yeah but ik pbt it’s better, but im from France

I have only abs

Look

[buoyant solstice]

Yup. We don't offer French in PBT.
Opening new PBT moulds is crazy expensive, so we're holding off adding new languages, until we can expect the upfront costs to be covered by potential sales within a reasonable time.

Or put differently - France is not a big market.

[verbal solar]

Yeah😞

[lilac plaza]

I dunno maybe I have never seen great ABS. I hear the Keychron PBT is cheap but it's holding up well for me.

at least as far as key shine

[steep badger]

I currently have custom keycaps from keychron and the paintjob isn't the best...

[lilac plaza]

paint?

[steep badger]

I have one of their colored keycaps. It's like a sky blue shade

[lilac plaza]

I just have the standard PBT ones

hasn't been a year yet though

[steep badger]

Oh if you ordered a custom keyboard, will you have to put it together? I was thinking of ordering without the keycaps

[lilac plaza]

I believe so

[steep badger]

Just confused in what to get, Stnadard black or ghost...

I've had to wait for vtuber merch for like half a year so waiting two months is nothing new for me

[low token]

I'am waiting since april

[sonic kindle]

Are lekker v2s dual rail

[jade widget]

No

[valid comet]

also dual rail is marketing hype so no need to worry about it

i have dual rail switches and honestly they are not great lol

not bad not great

[sonic kindle]

I hate the instability of lekkers so dual rail or at least good stability is a must for me

[valid comet]

their tolerances arent good

Lekker v2s aim to solve that completely or mostly

yeah lekker v2 is more than enough you don't really need to stress it

[dark cargo]

this weekend

[vital fog]

Im sure you guys are sick of this one but ive never bought keycaps, the 80HE is OEM but can use cherry MX keycaps as well?

Please and thank you

[spark heart]

yuh

it can use any type of key cap as long as it’s compatible with and Mx stem

[wind hollow]

it took literally 5 months of waiting for a singular hoodie from Guilty Gear

and like 6 months for my Cuptoast merch. Im so jaded atp idc anymore

[vital fog]

Yeah its weird, people complaining about when theyll get it. Dont order pre-order products if you dont have the patience for it. Clearly some consumers have never worked or looked into manufacturing let alone worked in retail or something to understand how many 'moving parts' there is to any new release.
