its only better on paper probs, how a 30% keyboard can beat an 180$ in performance when all he keyboards nowdays are ~150$

#

i know that its logic i'm just wanna talk with some1 who tested it to see how he could defend a 30$ keyboard shipped on aliexpress

why did they test one keyboard at 8k and then the rest at 1k

#

oh right i just realised the table is stupid and in reverse order. Fastest should be at the top

rose crane
#

? fastest is bottom lol

sharp jay
#

the more i read that graph the worse and harder to read it becomes wholly

rose crane
#

look what it says under the table

sharp jay
#

fastest should be at the top

#

in what universe what fastest be at the bottom

wtf is tachyon mode

did they even try

do you have to have that to enable 8k ?

rose crane
#

disable rgb brightness with like 75%

rose crane
sharp jay
#

good

#

sounds stupid ngl

lime falcon
#

no, it just disables rgb effects, you will have static rgb for 8k scan rate

sharp jay
#

?

sharp jay
#

so they made a mode just to disable rgb 😂😂😂😂😂

shut cairn
sharp jay
#

idk what that is

#

8k is fastest and best - that’s all i know

jade widget
#

Two different 8k there's 8k polling and 8k scan rate

sharp jay
#

and i think it’s like 0.005ms difference between 1 and 8 which is like 0

dark cargo
sharp jay

sharp jay
#

what’s the difference in scan vs polling ?

chrome forge
#

just crazy

dark cargo

lime falcon
jade widget
#

Polling is how often your PC checks for the input from your keyboard, scan rate is how fast the keyboard internally scans for the input of keys

sharp jay
#

right, thank you, that all makes sense

#

can you adjust both individually on wooting ?

lime falcon
#

you can set 1k polling and 8k polling for now, they plan to add 2k and 4k in future

sharp jay
#

i take it most of the time tho - if you’re playing ranked/comp games. You’re gonna want to run mouse and keyboard in 8K scan and polling

lime falcon
#

without tachyon its ~1.6khz scan rate

lime falcon
#

no

chrome forge
#

bruh

sharp jay
#

so to get 8k you HAVE to use the Tachyon mode ?

jade widget
#

You can adjust polling but scan is only adjusted through Tachyon on and off

lime falcon
sharp jay
#

So in a competitive aspect it’s best to have Tachyon on ?

#

even if it kills brightness and rgb

lime falcon
#

doesnt really matter the difference is negligible

#

probably not even 1ms

chrome forge
#

u don't care when u play of ur rgb

shut cairn
sharp jay
#

aight ty ty ty

lime falcon
jade widget
#

Realistically the difference is less then 0.001 seconds

chrome forge
#

and the rgb on tachyon mode is not that bad

red heart
#

i need tachyon mode to play tcg card shop simulator better

sharp jay
#

has anyone made a guide on like “configuring your wooting for competitive game”

like a guide that goes through all the “cheating” settings a wooting has etc

lime falcon

like a complete guide that goes through polling rate and settings etc, best socd, rappy snappy all of that

I got a couple of questions that someone here may be able to answer for me....Thank you for any info or input... 1). Can I use Version 5 Wootility with HE60+? ....2). Two nights in a row now, I've been playing 7 Days to Die and a couple of hours into game play the 'Left Shift' button quits working, although when I went to options to make sure the key was still set in the game option. It was, but I reset it anyway and it still didn't work... The next day it was working fine for a few hours and it quit working again...instead of crouching, it would stop all motion..........anyway, I switched keyboards and computers to see if the problem moves with the keyboards.... Thinking out load

the only thing that isnt helping is the top housing of the RAW HE switch because it's almost opaque haha

that wpuld be my only complaint about them, but if there was a variant with not a transparent top house but a hazy translucent white top housing that would be really cool, kinda like a secondary light diffuser in a way

I really would prefer a simple line of text explaining whats going on instead of a 10min video i genuinely dont have time/focus to worry about, I know its your thing to do cool vids but maybe save that for features and fun stuff and not reasons for delays.

I have paid over $500 and all i am getting is marketing jibber jabber

the batch updates is the text version

The info you have is the best info wooting can give you

Good news! The keyboards are en route to our fulfillment centers in the US and the Netherlands. "

midnight iron
#

i'm not really sure what more you want

vital fog
#

There is more info, they just arent communicating the cause of delays

midnight iron
#

ah okay another expert, time to leave the conversation

vital fog
#

Yeah, 20 years of literally managing stores and selling this exact type of equipment, so you can leave all you want, that doesnt change the fact.

red heart
#

It could be held up by customs, there could be delays in the shipment because of christmas rush/chaos etc etc etc

vital fog
#

Be in my shoes, we are a select group of people who said, NO WORRIES, we'll take the 'defective' white zinc alloys that are ALREADY produced as is and the credit, and yet we have been pushed to the absolute back of the line and that doesnt sit right with me. I understand the time of the year, but our due date was almost 1.5 months earlier when all this happened, and yet our batch kept getting pushed - so I am looking for a reason considering they were 'already made'

midnight iron
#

weren't you batch 2?

vital fog
#

: EU-Brug-White-Zinc
Currently in: Shipment to our warehouse
Your product is on its way to our warehouse

for the last few weeks

midnight iron
#

yeah but you said already produced

#

at the time of that thing it wasn't already produced

carmine pulsar
vital fog
#

well the email we get asking us to make a decision implied they had already made a batch

midnight iron
#

batch 1 is the ones that were already produced according to the timeline you posted

vital fog
#

cos people were already receving them

midnight iron
#

that was batch 1.

vital fog
#

hence the 'defects'

midnight iron
#

batch 2 wasn't already produced yet

carmine pulsar
vital fog
#

Respectfully, I work 2 jobs doing 7 shifts a week every week so it has been tiring keeping up with wootings timeline at this point, and I see that you are trying to gotcha me in some way, when all I am looking for is an explanation for the 'shipment to warehouse' being held up

#

not the parts prior at this point

midnight iron
#

it's not a gotcha... you're batch 2 and trying to apply batch 1 timeline to your order

vital fog
#

Maybe you pereceived it in that way as i recant the whole experience, but my initial quesitoning was regarding the current stage irregardless of how you chose to feel

midnight iron
#

okay i see this isn't going anywhere and you're just venting so i wish you good luck

Do you even work for wooting? or are you just wasting your energy on something you have no bearing over?

what i'm confused with is isn't the white seemingly still fitting the schedule they gave before already? It's supposed to be a couple weeks behind the batch 2 deliveries, which are happening now, so it's still fitting the last update they gave isn't it?

atomic brook
#

videos for people who like speaking instead of faceless text

#

Where’s Tachyon Mode located on the 80HE?

winged birch
#

Wait, 80HE has Tachyon?

upbeat berry
#

ah crap v5

#

forgot

#

quick settings is the fastest way

winged birch
#

Since when is it back? I thought the 80HE didn’t need Tachyon because True 8KHz was basically Tachyon already?

buoyant solstice
#

Tachyon is required to enable 8khz SCANNING.

#

The 8khz option is for POLLING

winged birch
#

What the heck

#

Wow

valid comet
#

I was under the assumption it didn't need tachyon for that when I was backing it, and tachyon was more for stability than anything

winged birch
#

100%, there were quite a few talks about it not needing Tachyon.

upbeat berry
#

i thought the same tbh

winged birch
#

Very interesting, I didn’t know this yet.

#

So without Tachyon enabled, what’s the scanning? 1KHz?

upbeat berry
#

i mean it says 1ms so that would mean 1khz

valid comet
#

i mean what's interesting is sometimes my 80HE at its best when tachyon is off, my board felt VERY RESPONSIVE with RGB effects, but that doesn't happen that much, most times it doesn't feel as fast (even with tachyon) than my 60HE+ with RGB effects

lime falcon
#

funny that you keep typing this everyday instead of emailing wooting

valid comet
#

The topic was brought up is all

winged birch
#

So essentially, the 60 and 80HE without Tachyon have almost identical latency?

buoyant solstice
#

No. The 80HE still has better out of box scanning.

#

I vaguely recall Simon saying it's 1.1 or 1.2khz or something? on the 80HE*

winged birch

#

Is the beefier MCU capable of True 8KHz with RGBFX and it’s just the firmware that isn’t ready/optimized yet or is it not capable at all?

midnight iron
#

Rgb will take away performance from any mcu no matter how beefy

#

The only solution is if you specifically did dual mcu set up just for rgb

winged birch
#

yeah a dual MCU

#

or a more powerful MCU

#

A performance decrease is fine as long as it’s still capable of the advertised performance.

upbeat berry
#

so i just asked about this and the main limiting factor seems to be hardware design as the rgb signals can mess up the scanning signals. so maybe in a future hardware revision

valid comet
#

wouldn't a dual MCU require a PCBA redesign?

buoyant solstice
#

future hardware revision

valid comet
#

true

#

That would literally be the 80HE+ at that point lmao

spring oar
#

we need 2 Marvel Cinematic Universe

valid comet
#

the good thing is the second hypothetical RGB MCU doesn't have to be super beefy

upbeat berry
#

rn its more of a signal isolation issue on the traces rather than an mcu issue (from what i understood)

valid comet
valid comet
#

half of the time this helped a lot for my 80HE

fallow estuary
#

what im gathering from this convo is that i will probably buy some nice non shine through keycaps, turn off rgb and call it a day

#

if it will get finally shipped that is, im really last order on EU-Brug LELU

valid comet
#

btw this is a general question about polling rate, but iirc in the thread about polling rate, i think it said the voltage drops when the polling rate increases from 1k (3.3V) to 8k (0.4V), does that mean that hypothetically if the 80HE had a 2k or 4k option, would it not drop as much as it would on 8k?

there's a question on my 80he which is Ghost PCR , when i set the same color of the bar, some squares' color is not same as the other squares, such as the first square and the 2nd square(this is white, but is more like to purple)that's normal??

buoyant solstice
#

There will always be a slight variance in the LEDs, as they are created using a non-perfect chemical process.

#

As for them showing up slightly pink/purple/lavender, this is because there's no such thing as pure white when you're using a red, blue and green LED each to try and create white by turning them all up to the same level. You could reduce the red value slightly and likely get a more white, white.

# upbeat berry so i just asked about this and the main limiting factor seems to be hardware des...

I see. One more question; was this limitation known right away or was it something discovered later on (during the later stages of the 80HE)? Looking back at the videos, there doesn’t seem to be any mention of this at all. The 80HE page does say “supports up to 8kHz USB polling” but IMO, that’s slick marketing, something we’ve come to expect from the Razers and Logitechs but not from Woot. It might be just me but it seemed like the 80HE came with True 8KHz from factory and that “True” 8KHz was without compromise.

simon discovered this later. he actually tried doing it in a way that both run but the issues this cause for some people internally (very instable sacanrate) meant it was cut for now

hardware was also already final at that point

Then you have your answer. It is perfectly normal - Metals transfer heat more efficiently than plastic, and so your case sucks up some of the LED heat and into it.

I'm asking the question again since it's way more busy at that time then last night (Canada time). Just got my 80HE. Awesome keyboard 😄

I was just wondering if it's normal that the plastic case(ghost) wooble a bit just under the space bar?

distant cove
bronze bone
#

Perfect 👌. If it's normal I'm ok 😀

distant cove
#

Idk if it was a thing with the 60he. But yes it is a normal thing and is a thing with every 80he that is plastic.

bronze bone
#

And the keycap wooble a bit too right?

pulsar grotto
#

the fact that my actuation is so low made it that i cant use rapid trigger wheeze

distant cove
#

It’s gotten better with the new switches but yeah.

bronze bone
distant cove
#

The quality of the plastic is quite questionable from what I’ve picked up from others

bronze bone
rich trail
#

I got a zinc alloy case, so I might not be your assistant
but I heard that some of the plastic cases are not fully snapped into place and are apparently delivered like that sometimes.

bronze bone
#

Yes it's a bit on the cheap side

#

I have a old hyper x alloy keyboard and other then the technology, software and switch the material itself is quite low

distant cove

if its an issue for you, in the future

distant cove

#

Do we have wooting employees that could let us know

distant cove
#

It’s not just a you problem. But I find it weird that @pulsar grotto doesn’t have this issue

#

I chose black plastic fully knowing this would be an issue

midnight iron
#

your keyboard isn't going to bend during gaming lol

#

the issues with the plastic case are more people don't like that when not gaming they can push on the bezels on the front for example and make it move down

distant cove
midnight iron
#

but realistically you're never going to do that movement and it's just a byproduct of the shape of the design

lime falcon
#

dont press it then 5Head

midnight iron
#

in future maybe they don't put bezels there so people don't have a random point to push down there

#

it's kind of a big nothingburger honestly

distant cove
#

He knows that. But it still shows the quality of the plastic. It’s not irrational to question it

midnight iron
#

it's not the quality of the plastic

#

it's the design rigidity

#

you can use the same quality plastic and make it a square box and all the previous pushing down points disappear

distant cove
#

I understand, thanks!

midnight iron
#

which honestly maybe in the future they do that because it would actually be cheaper and easier to make just a square box case

distant cove
#

I was answering his question he asked if it was normal or not

#

But yeah I get your point. Thanks!

midnight iron
#

if anything the plastic they used is probably more expensive because they picked recycled plastic

#

so it's never been a quality or cost issue. It's just a design path that maybe in the future they don't do because people mix up quality of plastic with design rigidity

distant cove
#

Does the incentive for recycled plastic really boost revenue. Wish they went aluminum. Even the cheapest type of aluminum would’ve been better especially for the price.

It was just a check question to see if it was a only me

#

I don't mind! And still love the keyboard!!

distant cove
#

No worries it’s just a conversation. But yes it is normal!

midnight iron
#

they wanted to use recycled plastic cause it's better for the environment and it's something they can afford to do, same with using degradable packaging etc

bronze bone
distant cove
midnight iron
#

i think that might just be a happy coincidence if it is

sleek spruce
distant cove
#

I get your point I just wanna see the reasoning

midnight iron
#

they did zinc because it was easier to make case designs instead of full cnc which would have been design and cost prohibitive

#

and wooting kind of just like learning how to do stuff and make their own thing, instead of outsourcing their case production to some factory that already makes the cases for everyone else

distant cove
#

Yeah that does make sense

midnight iron
distant cove
#

If you think it’s a coincidence, why not go aluminum? It’s easy to machine and corrosion resistant

sleek spruce
#

maybe interesting for the wooting devteam ... or worth an answer from @bright jewel ... dunno

so that means that trying out a S-Pole switch in the wooting keyboards will not harm the PCB?

#

where is the discussion ... i cannot find it ... the video is from yesterday. and i scrolled to yesterday 1 am 🤔

midnight iron
#

it's a debatable topic on how useful, not useful that is, but it's definitely something that wooting could do in the future

distant cove
#

I appreciate it!

sleek spruce
#

thanks ... i will give it a try

midnight iron
#

there's not really much to be said beyond it's maybe something wooting might add in the future, but it's probably not a priority right now when they're working on other bugs and things first

distant cove
#

Who is the biggest competitor to wooting. Is the iqunix actually better?

#

Or people just saying that cause they’re tiring of saying wooting is the best?

midnight iron
#

the need for 0.01ms settings is a lot lower than boardzy makes it out to be, but i get that he just is one of the small amount of people who might use that setting

midnight iron
#

i do 100% agree with his point that wooting should have better stock switches that match up to competitors though, but i'm sure it's something they're aware of for the future

unkempt fulcrum
#

Anyone knows what happens when I try different hall effect switches out with the wooting? Is there a possibility I can damage the hall effect sensor?

buoyant solstice
#

No.

buoyant solstice
#

But if you use incompatible switches, you might get no signal or a weird one.

unkempt fulcrum
#

soulth pole or north pole makes no difference here?

distant cove
buoyant solstice
#

The magnet is in the center, so no. But with south facing, you're going to lose out on LEDs.

midnight iron
unkempt fulcrum
midnight iron
#

i don't care about latency at all though and I'm more of the school of 'i just want my keyboard to 100/100 times i press strafe I want that strafe to press and release when i expect it to'

#

and a lot of newer keyboards don't pass that bar

distant cove
#

Good point!

distant cove
midnight iron
#

consistency of firmware is 1000x more important than whether a keyboard is 0.001 seconds faster or slower in latency

#

mx keyboards, customs etc

buoyant solstice
midnight iron
#

but i still use them for work because non HE switches are still nicer sound

distant cove
midnight iron
#

both

distant cove
#

Perfect, so can you educate me about the gasket mount on the 80? I’ve heard things about it that’s quite confusing

#

If that makes sense

midnight iron
#

it's just more for isolation and a very small amount of softness to the press more than anything

#

it doesn't function same as a full custom keyboard gasket because HE boards don't work well with crazy amounts of bouncing

distant cove
#

Thank you, what 80he did you get

midnight iron
#

ghost/raw

distant cove
#

Good choice! Do you notice any differences between 8k polling with the 80he and the 1k polling with the 60he?

midnight iron
#

no, no human can notice the difference

#

it's 0.001 seconds at best

#

that's the difference from 1k vs 8k

molten lance
#

But bigger number better person

lean barn
#

is the standard keys good or should i buy custom keys?

midnight iron
#

and more like 0.0005 seconds on average since 1ms (0.001 second) is the max time between 1k and 8k, so on average it'd be half that gain
