What I'm used to.

[mighty nova]

ok

[exotic cove]

Do you game?

If so, its nice having a larger shift lol

Otherwise its purely your preference

[mighty nova]

Yes

[exotic cove]

In my games I need shift sometimes to run etc or do other things

[mighty nova]

Same

[distant monolith]

I use ansi and iso daily.
I have been using iso my whole life, so I find ansi quite clunky and annoying… ymmv

[exotic cove]

There is also this

[distant monolith]

Small shift does just fine if you use your pinky

[exotic cove]

I would agree here, if you used ISO since forever go with what you are used to

[mighty nova]

ye but there is not a big difference?

[exotic cove]

I cant imagine using ISO since I have been using ANSI since birth

[distant monolith]

The difference is the layout. There is no performance difference or anything

If you only type in pure English, either are fine

[exotic cove]

https://www.corsair.com/us/en/explorer/gamer/keyboards/ansi-vs-iso-whats-the-best-keyboard-layout/

[distant monolith]

If you use any other language, iso offers more.

[pearl cedar]

If you have only ever used ANSI then stick with it. Lots more options of 3rd party key caps

[grave ferry]

and if you play games that use more keybinds than your average game, then you can quickly adapt and now you have an extra key for your pinky to hit as a bind

[mighty nova]

thx

[exotic cove]

Oh good point

[grave ferry]

i played games on an ortholinear keyboard for the longest time and the amount of new binds I was able to try out was simply amazing

the pinky is very versatile

[exotic cove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/qbszi2/ansi_vs_iso_which_one_is_objectively_better/?rdt=36010

[exotic cove]

google is your friend lol

[mighty nova]

ye i live in germany and we have ü,ö,ä

[exotic cove]

Then go ISO

[mighty nova]

i never used ansi...

[distant monolith]

You can’t easily use those characters without iso

[mighty nova]

ye

[distant monolith]

Also, if you never used ansi you are going to have a hard time adapting

[grave ferry]

the smaller shift isnt too noticeable after a week or 2 of playing

[distant monolith]

I use both daily and it took me a couple months to get used to ansi

[chrome zenith]

wow

how did u know

wtf

[exotic cove]

What else would a horse buy

[mighty nova]

tbh i rdont really use ö,ü,ä so thats not important to me but the shift, the enter and the z and y are important to me

[chrome zenith]

apple flavored electrolyte

[exotic cove]

Do you just stuff it into the case?

[chrome zenith]

that would void my warranty sadly

[distant monolith]

Get iso.

[exotic cove]

I agree already here

[mighty nova]

ok

[distant monolith]

Only reason to get ansi is either you have been using it your whole life or you want more customisation options for keycaps.

[mighty nova]

ye the keycaps the problem

[buoyant solstice]

(And don't about legend accuracy at all*)

[mighty nova]

are*

[distant monolith]

Why would someone want legend accuracy on their bread cat (barely usable) keycaps?

[chrome zenith]

i kinda wish my he came with 45 lekker switches ngl, these are abit too heavy than what im used to on the apex

[distant monolith]

Also, can we please summon the gods of white zinc and do a sacrifice ritual for an early delivery? T.T

[exotic cove]

Go for Geon Raw 50g

Lekker 60s were too heavy and I found lekkers 45 too light

Geon seems to have nailed the switch

[chrome zenith]

alr calm down Goldilocks

[exotic cove]

Plus the shorter travel distance of 3.4 is fantastic

[exotic cove]

lmao

[chrome zenith]

ill look em up once my wallet recovers from the immense damage that is a 5090

[teal bane]

hey so i have had mine for a few months now but yesterday i ran into a problem ive not had with any other keyboard im not saying its wootings fault or anything but whenever i type a specific key i have to hold that key down for like a full second and ive checked the actuation point and its not that if you could get confused and its only on a specific key

[pearl cedar]

Sorry, got mixed up on who asked the question. In that case ISO all the way!

[exotic cove]

The Raws cost will just be a rounding error on your insane rig haha

[teal bane]

can anyone help ?

[exotic cove]

Have you tried switching the switch?

[chrome zenith]

fr? how much they cost and where do they sell them?

[exotic cove]

to see if its the switch itself

[exotic cove]

Depends where you live

https://www.alexotos.com/keyboard-vendor-list/

[exotic cove]

I got mine directly from Geon

Maybe $50 with shipping if you are in the us

[teal bane]

i mean i remapped the key and it weirdly worked again i switched Ö to R and that key with R worked perfectly for some reason

[exotic cove]

Im not in the us so I got mine directly from Geon's site

[exotic cove]

Oh okay so it works now?

[teal bane]

nah it doesnt i just remapped it and had 2 R instead

and its not happening to any other of "special" characters

[exotic cove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9f8PAI3XJI

Save your profiles and try resetting

[teal bane]

alright thanks

[chrome zenith]

found it for 44$ on aliexpress with shipping. not a rounding error unfortunately 😭 , i still got a mousepad to buy a and a whole new monitor bc my dad's one broke and i gave him mine

[exotic cove]

44$ on a 5090 haha

[chrome zenith]

guys whatever you do, dont buy alienware

[exotic cove]

fair enough

[chrome zenith]

that shit randomly will die on you

[exotic cove]

Agreed, always best to build your own

[chrome zenith]

this is my third monitor from them that has failed

[exotic cove]

Plus they lock you into their parts, they gutted alienware and its now a rebranded dell that suck

[chrome zenith]

fr

buying an asus monitor this time

from amazon

so i wont get screwed over by asus customer service

[exotic cove]

I use an LG oled tv lol

42 inch

[chrome zenith]

lmao

[exotic cove]

It works lol

[chrome zenith]

u play on console?

[exotic cove]

just need to press an extra button when turning on my PC

[exotic cove]

Oh no, PC all the way

[chrome zenith]

damn.

ive never heard of someone using a tv for pc gaming

[exotic cove]

Its the same panel as asus on some models

LG make the best oleds

[chrome zenith]

ig its a pretty good experience for casual gamers, def better than monitors

but must be annoying to play competitive games

[exotic cove]

Plus the value proposition is good, got my C2 on clearance sale

[exotic cove]

Not at all

[chrome zenith]

refreshrate?

[exotic cove]

I move the TV back on its stand

[sturdy dawn]

Somebody here with good settings for Counterstrike2? I just got the keyboard. You can private chat me. 🙂

[exotic cove]

Mine is 120 but new ones are 144

[chrome zenith]

wtf

[exotic cove]

4k

[chrome zenith]

advanced tv

[teal bane]

still dont work man and its still that specific thing that doesnt work i mean i can remap it and it works fine and its not with any other key or keybind either

[teal bane]

d

i reset the keyboard and i restored it following each step and it doesnt work still

[exotic cove]

Im not sure how to help you, Try community support

[teal bane]

alright thakns

[exotic cove]

I can send you a pic of the setup lol

[chrome zenith]

sure

[exotic cove]

It is far back enough that the view angle is great

[spring oar]

soo red

[chrome zenith]

bro got the terraria blood moon active

[exotic cove]

Philips hue lol

[chrome zenith]

clean setup tho

[exotic cove]

I did it in red because someone said red freaked them out lol

[chrome zenith]

damn

[exotic cove]

and told them to find the body

[chrome zenith]

thats smth i would do

[exotic cove]

Its a little different now

and usually its pitch dark aside from screen, 80he and aio sensor

[chrome zenith]

ill send u a pic of mine once i complete it

its gonna be zero rgb

ofc some parts will have it but im gonna turn it off

[exotic cove]

Same, I setup the rgb then turned it off lol

You can see that I have gpu and cpu temp on the aio, that is all

[chrome zenith]

nice

[exotic cove]

I have a pic somewhere with the rgb on

[chrome zenith]

im a hater of rgb bc of corsair

their software bricked my OS

never again...

[exotic cove]

yeah, go with the open source programs

corsairs IMO is dogsh*t

[distant monolith]

Aim training

[chrome zenith]

the only thing that will be rgb in my setup will prolly be my fans and mobo, im just gonna turn off the rgb in bios and not plug in the argb cables for the fans, no software needed

except maybe for the gpu

they all need rgb for some reason, not one 5090 without rgb

ok i lied, msi ventus is

but its ugly

looks like an airplane in a bad way

[exotic cove]

Then boom OFF

[chrome zenith]

those corsair fans?

[exotic cove]

no

[chrome zenith]

thank god

[exotic cove]

cooler master

Only the case is corsair lol

I removed all the corsair crap and put in more easier fans to work with

aio is different now also

in previous pic you can see the aio has a screen

I did it because I got screwed by the 14900k

[chrome zenith]

aintnoway

[distant monolith]

Wooting 80he chat but it’s about pc hardware…

[exotic cove]

My bad

[chrome zenith]

well the 80he is apart of our setup

[buoyant solstice]

[chrome zenith]

so technically, the 80he is the pc hardware we made along the way..

[exotic cove]

There, that is on my desk

relevant again!

[chrome zenith]

is that a joystick on the escape key

[buoyant solstice]

It's a ufo keycap

[chrome zenith]

looks like a mushroom

[buoyant solstice]

Kids these days

[exotic cove]

Kids? have you seen some of the news?

[distant monolith]

Can’t we have a single chat without American politics?

[exotic cove]

Yes, I went down the rabbit hole

[exotic cove]

That is not politics lol

[distant monolith]

Sorry, it’s probably cheese.

[exotic cove]

This was a whistleblower hearing

[distant monolith]

….

[exotic cove]

I think its A political lol

and has nothing to do with who won or whatever, im not even from the us

[buoyant solstice]

Yes it is.

[exotic cove]

Okay

ill delete it

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

Oi. I was watching that 😄

[exotic cove]

Sorry

[buoyant solstice]

I was waiting for him to dig the hole deep enough to dismiss him as a serious, critically thinking human.

[exotic cove]

Okay lemme know how far he digs

[ornate pike]

its so obvious, only gpu launching in feb area is 5090 and 5080

[chrome zenith]

fair

[exotic cove]

Anyways, I have more of these videos and one from a whole 60 mins segment, since its off topic and people think alien life is politics, just DM for the links if interested

[bold crypt]

esc key still goated

[exotic cove]

Superman arrived

Thank you haha

[ornate pike]

im between the 5080 and the 9070xt but 9070xt is in march -_-

[bold crypt]

is the "light" from the ufo glass or resin?

[ornate pike]

i have a 9800x3d

[exotic cove]

Good Q, I think it might be Resin

[buoyant solstice]

Definitely resin.

[exotic cove]

benchmarks drop soon for the 5000 series, wait for those,

I think allowable post date is Jan 23

[exotic cove]

It also has a ring around it of light

like glow in the dark material that activates with a black light

[ornate pike]

23rd for msrp cards
24th for non msrp

[exotic cove]

You can see the ring here under black light

[ornate pike]

29th and 30th for 5080 respectively the same

[bold crypt]

yeah, i think resin works well there. and thats sick... the kat profile i will be getting that i showed you for the alien build is suppoed to be "gllow in the dark" as well

[exotic cove]

Oh that is fantastic!

Please share or ping me so I dont miss it

[bold crypt]

oh will do for sure, 👍

[bold crypt]

i really would go amd route if i were you, if you want a tada bit of breathing room vram wise

[exotic cove]

I also got this today

CF plate, so hoping it stiffens the board out

[ornate pike]

both options are 16gb lmao

[bold crypt]

huh... are you serious

[ornate pike]

if not imma just not do this generation and wait for the 6090 ez

i have a dedication to get the 6090

[bold crypt]

did amd just flip out of nowhere

[exotic cove]

same!

[ornate pike]

they dont wanna compete for the high end so 16gb

[chrome zenith]

5080 is 5-10% faster than 4080 super, 9070xt is on par with 4080 super, but those are from leaks, could be very inaccurate

[pearl cedar]

Were they legit? So much fake stuff on ali. If they were, do you have the link to the seller?

[bold crypt]

oh.,... idk if those are their flagships because theyre 4070ti level apparently? if they are, amd just shit the bed for higher end models lmfao. They usually offer bigger vrams on their higher end cards. I have a 6950xt and i have 16gb

[chrome zenith]

[exotic cove]

Check out der8auer

[bold crypt]

fair enough but they coulve pushed for 24gb, idk, it feels like theyre not trying to compete

[exotic cove]

They are charging more for less in a way

[tight cypress]

Not surprised there, lowest raster perf improvement in years, they are fully betting on AI and DLSS
And come on, $2k

[bold crypt]

YES! i wonder how much louder your board gets

[chrome zenith]

30% is average generational uplift

its the lower tiers that are below average

[bold crypt]

theyre upcharging for fake frames LMFAO. The raw performance is disgusting

[exotic cove]

haha, maybe ill hear it through the headphones now loooool

[exotic cove]

Alex, Ill take the truth for 500$

[tight cypress]

When I see benchmarks then we can talk about those 30%

[chrome zenith]

its just that 3090 -> 4090 was an abnormally high uplift

[exotic cove]

@chrome zenith check out htis video

[chrome zenith]

i did

[tight cypress]

This generation is disappointing overall, both from Nvidia and AMD

[exotic cove]

Saying its less

[bold crypt]

they also said 5070 >= 4090. I dont know why people would take their word for it

[chrome zenith]

ay man, more for me

[exotic cove]

When I saw that I smelled that smelly smell

[bold crypt]

it's the same asshat that said "the more we buy, the more we save" "ceo logic" etcc lmfao come on guys

[exotic cove]

Some of our 4000 series will age like fine wine

[bold crypt]

yep, especially if you have 16gb and above gaming at 2k

[true cosmos]

Yeah, if they were that much better wouldn't have all this embargo and we would have benchmarks to compare

[exotic cove]

Exactly and this is where the industry is heading...

[tight cypress]

I'm just hoping that AMD has decided to sleep a bit for now to focus on their APU line and UDNA with high-end offerings
There isn't really high-end anymore if you don't want to go Nvidia

[true cosmos]

I will keep it my 4070FE

[exotic cove]

I will keep my 4000 series card too

[next pawn]

My keyboard was out for delivery yday, but since Fedex in Norway is so small and almost non-existent, they don't give you an estimate on when they're gonna be there or call in advance (Like UPS does).. so they tried to ring my door, call me and I was 2 min late to call the delivery-person back, so they left They're gonna try again today, I WILL NOT LEAVE MY APPARTMENT!

[bold crypt]

smart decision on ur part haha. I'm still keeping my 6950xt as well. I mostly play shooters so there's really no need to upgrade as well. They can keep their AI frames

[exotic cove]

rAmen

[exotic cove]

Respect that dedication

[valid comet]

Well I wouldn't say entirely, you can only get so far with Software and AI. At some point you need a baseline, and the monumental increase, it's just not this time. 4N isn't much different from N4P. N2 or 18A would be huge though.

[pearl cedar]

What lube are you guys using? (For your switches… don’t need any other details lol)

[valid comet]

Krytox 205G0

[bold crypt]

that sucks man. You should leave them a note to spam ur doorbell and bang on ur door. you cant miss that

[next pawn]

I wasnt home, I actually drove pAST THEM on the way home, but I didnt know because they dont drive Fedex-labeled cars, only plain white vans.. but I didnt know until I came home 2 mins later and saw they had tried to call me 😭

I was SO MAD hahah

[tight cypress]

On one hand - sure
But on the other their approach of calling raster "brute-force rendering"... they do have some audacity there

[next pawn]

But I didnt wanna answer my phone while I was driving, so I waited to call them back when I had parked.

[bold crypt]

the monopoly continues, it's insane how much gpu prices has risen but performance has lagged behind

[chrome zenith]

ups didnt call me in advance , they rung my doorbell at 9 am and my dog barked loud enough to wake me up thankfully

[next pawn]

OMG haha. Mine is gonna have FIT when they ring on the door today too..

cant wait

[chrome zenith]

my corgi sounds like a german shepherd with how loud she gets

[tight cypress]

People keep buying GPUs for whatever outlandish prices Nvidia and AIBs sets for them, no wonder this happens

[bold crypt]

that is indeed unfortunate my friend but fed ex is insane for managing that branch that way.

[true cosmos]

Also 1 thing about the rtx 50 series that I'm not so sure is being now 3 different PCBs.

[chrome zenith]

big dog stuck in tiny body

[bold crypt]

brute force rendering 🤣 HAHAHAHA. it even sounds barbaric

[next pawn]

Like, If I could get an estimate that's not "will be delivered today before 18" it would help ALOT haha, or just a call 30 min in advance, that would be AMAZINg haha.

[next pawn]

I ALSO HAVE A CORGI

[spring oar]

I need that brute force rendering to make 80fps into 120

[chrome zenith]

smth about corgis and doorbells...

[next pawn]

And my neighbour is a Karen too.. so that makes my life a living hell haha

[bold crypt]

or even a " we will be there in the afternoon or morning etc"

[next pawn]

YES, that's ALL im asking for.

[chrome zenith]

my neighbours have never seen a dog, they get spooked by her existing

[next pawn]

wait what hahha

[chrome zenith]

dubai life lmao

i miss snow so much

and grass

grass especially

[pearl cedar]

DPD have my status as “in transit to the final destination “… well that’s very descriptive!!! 😂

[chrome zenith]

but now that i have my 80he, i dont need grass anymore

[next pawn]

you can have ALL my snow!

[pearl cedar]

Have ordered geon he raws before even trying the stock keys… proper gone down this mechanical keyboard rabbit hole 😂

[chrome zenith]

i would be happy to accept it by fedex

[bold crypt]

ill add all the snow where i am as well. The cold sucks xD

[next pawn]

You never know it's arriving though. Maybe they leave with it if you dont answer your phone..

[chrome zenith]

snow is always better as a surprise

[next pawn]

I even got this pretty thing!! Am excited!

[next pawn]

What is wrong with you 😭

[pearl cedar]

So many cool 3rd party cables… just worried about compatibility

[chrome zenith]

when i was 13-16 living in latvia, i would be outside for hours making giant snow boulders

i dont know why

[next pawn]

This one is from wooting so hopefully it works!

[chrome zenith]

but it was very fun

[pearl cedar]

Bloody should do for the price they charge!

[chrome zenith]

they would be the last things to melt during spring aswell

[next pawn]

hahaha IT BETTER

[next pawn]

hahahah

All the snow here now has melted then frozen over again.. so now its ice-hell here

[bold crypt]

https://torontokeyboardman.ca/products/rgb-braided-aviator-cable these are nice for me

[chrome zenith]

oh, thats the bad kind of snow

well, not even snow at that point

[next pawn]

its TERRIBLE.. and its gonna snow more this week. So more snow ON TOP of the ice.

Im done with winter tbh.

[bold crypt]

it's free insurance claim

[chrome zenith]

shouldve rolled it into a boulder before it froze

[next pawn]

HAHA true

[pearl cedar]

That does look nice. Just not sure if 1.5m is long enough vs the 2m stock cable

[bold crypt]

yeah, these cables unless u can request custom sizing are shorter than the wooting cable

[bold crypt]

make some shaved ice 🤣

[next pawn]

LOTS of yellow snow here!

[chrome zenith]

lemonade snowcone

[bold crypt]

how did it become yellow? just out of curiousity

[next pawn]

my dog might have pee'd all over the neighbourhood

[bold crypt]

lemonade snowcone might be better hahaha!

[pearl cedar]

That’s why they always say “don’t eat yellow snow” 😂

[next pawn]

its the spicy kinda shaved ice

Only for the brave ones!

Do we wanna bet that Fedex is here BEFORE 15?

[bold crypt]

is there a health benefit too? xD

[next pawn]

It MIGHT work as a... purge of sorts. if that counts?

[bold crypt]

sounds umm... promising. Ladies first! hahaha

[next pawn]

Oh, IM GOOD on purging! Have a taste!

HEY I got an e-mail from FEDEX

"We're sorry for being behind schedule. We have updated estimated deliverydate for you package: Wednesday 22/1-2025, before 18:00"

[scenic glade]

😉

[chrome zenith]

idk why reviewers said the plastic model felt low quality

it legit has no creeks and feels good

i almost thought they sent me a zinc model on accident with how good the coating is

my only complaint is that the white rgb looks pink, but im just gonna turn off rgb and get a white keycap set

[buoyant solstice]

[distant monolith]

Mansen can you tell the factory to not take holidays so we have white zinc early?

[buoyant solstice]

[bold crypt]

u got it???

[next pawn]

YES!

MY GOD this is HEAVY??

[rocky valve]

when will white frost case restock

still waiting production in my hub

[buoyant solstice]

The what now

It's just frost. Not frost white. 😄

[buoyant solstice]

And the hub also provided you with a date. 🙂

[distant monolith]

Frost white zinc

For the ultimate unicorn

[buoyant solstice]

[bright jewel]

[lucid cape]

Well hello there

[icy cosmos]

32GB is no joke. I have said it earlier. It´s not a gaming card.

[tight cypress]

Then what is it for? Like - if you want to go seriously into AI you'd be better off with going with their workstation cards, because more VRAM, more cores, no gaming-related fluff
Where, ironically at the same time, it's worse for workstations and uses such as CAD because AI and whole DLSS suite is useless there, raw power matters there, you can't have fake pixels/frames there
And their whole marketing is only about gaming, how games look "beautiful" with all that path-tracing and upscaling and frame generation and what not

[exotic cove]

Exactly this, raising the price and giving us less

Hopefully amd or intel get their act together cuz this monopoly is fast becoming a potemkin village

[tight cypress]

I really hope that UDNA will be Ryzen of GPUs

Or Intel's GPUs, oh irony

[crisp egret]

Is it normal that the 2 keycaps are not at the same height?

[distant monolith]

Looks like the keycap is not fully pushed down

You can see more of the switch than others

[bold crypt]

wishing for intel success is ironic for sure hahaha. AMD really shit the bed not increasing the vram from 16 to 24. Wiuth how demanding games are nowadays, and with hiugher resolution, they def need those vram

[lime falcon]

push it down

[ornate pike]

decrease from 24 to 16*

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/indeed-tealc-stargate-gif-4496552

[lucid cape]

Absolutely loving the 80HE, Lekker 60V2 also feel awsome compared to 7yr old Razer Yellow linear switches 😂

[spring oar]

32gb is soo awkward for local text llm. Most of the good one only need 24gb or 48gb. Between that can net you more context/quant quality, but running at fp4 is already great for most.

[icy cosmos]

The price of 48GB though 🤣

[spring oar]

Just run 2 3090

Cost the same as 5090 of you're lucky

[icy cosmos]

It depends on your budget at the end. If you’re running a business. 5090 is not a problem

If you’re a hobbyist. 2X3090 is a good option

[faint flame]

Do this mean it will come today?

[iron coral]

track it & find out

[buoyant solstice]

Nothing in that screenshot says that. Please track your package using the DP link on the yellow button.

[pearl cedar]

Mine hit that status on monday and am still waiting… it’s somewhere in the courier network at the moment

[prime gate]

Is there any way to set an idle profile rather than just having it dim/sleep on idle?

[buoyant solstice]

An idle... profile?

But no. There's no automatic profile changing.

[prime gate]

Yeah like, so after a minute or whatever of no activity, it swaps to a different lighting profile of my choosing

Damn, I feel like that would be an obvious thing to add...

[buoyant solstice]

I have literally never heard of anyone wanting that, so I don't think it's that obvious 😄

You'd need an active RGB app running on the PC for that at any rate.

[prime gate]

I don't like my lights being too bright while I'm actively gaming because it can be distracting sometimes, but if I walk away from the keyboard or just sitting there chilling, I'd want it to brighten up and look pretty

[pearl cedar]

It’d be cool if the keyboard had an API so you could make lights happen based on events in homeassistant etc

[lime falcon]

if you dont like lights too bright, just decrease rgb

[prime gate]

Like a screensaver, if you will

[shrewd cargo]

he wants the reverse of inactivity dimming

[prime gate]

Yes

Another thing, my friend who convinced me to buy this keyboard told me that you can't actually get the full 8k polling if you're using advanced lighting settings, and you have to use just solid colors. Did they change that or something? I can't find anything online about that limitation

[lime falcon]

You cant use rgb effects

with tachyon mode

[shrewd cargo]

you dont get 8k "scanning" with tachyon off

[prime gate]

It doesn't really explain that anywhere in wootility as far as I can tell, weird

[buoyant solstice]

You can do 8khz polling with RGB animations, you cannot do 8khz SCANNING (Tachyon) with them on.

[prime gate]

Where is this found? I can't find it

[lime falcon]

Quick settings

[shrewd cargo]

https://v5.wootility.io/

[prime gate]

Oh, I'm on beta, maybe that's why

[buoyant solstice]

Always been there.

[lime falcon]

Its there

in quick settings

[prime gate]

ugh i'm such a dumbass lmao I've looked at quick settings so many times and my brain just didn't register it being there, I've been inspecting every inch of every other page lmao

[bitter steppe]

performance > quality

[faint flame]

Yes that’s why I asked

[buoyant solstice]

Your courier has the package, they are the ones making the delivery and are the best source of the most accurate estimate.

[dusk imp]

how i can install the programm

[buoyant solstice]

The... the program?

https://wooting.io/wootility ?

[dusk imp]

wootility

thanks

do i download the beta or v4?

[buoyant solstice]

V5.

[dusk imp]

okay

thanks

[covert pawn]

There is a board that can do 8k polling and 16k scanning. I forgor what it was though.

[long dome]

What's the difference between polling and scanning in this case?

[covert pawn]

Might have been the made68?

[covert pawn]

Polling is how often the keyboard reports an input to the computer. The scan rate is how often the MCU in the keyboard reads the analog input from the multiplexing units which are redirecting multiple analog signals into one signal.

[buoyant solstice]

Polling - How often the PC asks for new data
Scanning - How often the keyboard internally reads a new value from each key

[long dome]

Oh sick

I learned something new today

[covert pawn]

Basically you want the polling rate to be as similar to your scan rate as possible and keep them in sync

[long dome]

That makes sense

[covert pawn]

Divisibly speaking

Like 8k polling and 16k scanning will work since 16 is divisible to 8.

[long dome]

Ye

[covert pawn]

And it's easier to keep them in sync

[long dome]

It's an even ratio

[covert pawn]

Mhm

[long dome]

Appreciate the explanation guys!

[covert pawn]

Aye!

[supple remnant]

whats the scanning

[uneven zephyr]

ah i figured it out, its a keyboard my bad gang

[covert pawn]

Scanning the analog input from the keys that go through the multiplexing units and turning it into a digital signal through the ADCs inside the MCU?

[supple remnant]

thank you

[bold crypt]

that makes it even more painful.

[ornate pike]

within 5% of a 4080 super which is in direct competition of a 7900xtx

[bold crypt]

im just grateful i got my 6950xt at the right time. Im getting my money's worth for a while

[ornate pike]

so basically same performance
+FSR4
+Better Price Tag
+Better RT (+-4070 Ti Super?)
+Better Efficiency
-8gb vram

[bold crypt]

and they still decided to cannibalize the vram

[ornate pike]

if we got a 24gb card for like $600 usd I wouldve bought it

[bold crypt]

AMEN brother. It's just strange why they did this.... I guess AI. I hate the whole gpu space right now.

forget optimization, we got fake frames, thats hoe we'll optimize our games

probably every dev right now lmfao

[ornate pike]

5080 10% better than 4080 super only lmao

Same MSRP but rumours of low supply is gonna cause crazy scalping

[bold crypt]

it's almost like it happened before but people will never learn

[ornate pike]

Cause low supply
Personally Scalp the cards urself bcs AMD isnt releasing shit
Once AMD releases, u suddenly increase supply while they are barely starting to stock up

oh nvidia doing something shady like this is a tinfoil moment gone real

my friends were a victim. someone bought a 3080 for basically 2k+ etc etc. Just insane

[winter nebula]

I doubt nvidia would go through all the effort and legal risk of scalping their own consumer products when their bread and butter is in b2b products

How can I change the color from Caps Locks?

[winter nebula]

Change the color of that dot in the corner

[waxen bloom]

Ordered my 60he on the 21st and I get it on Friday lol

Actually gassed for it ngl

[winter nebula]

You should be. What are you coming from?

[digital parrot]

My 80he is between 2/9 and 2/23 🥲

[crisp egret]

thx

Hoping them individual zinc cases go into production soon

[waxen bloom]

THIS JUNK

is my current ahahahah

[long dome]

Cause I ordered in December, and my estimated delivery date is early march

[long dome]

Yikers

[waxen bloom]

YEAH ive been so fugazi using it for so long

it was my dads ahaahah

never knew delviery to be so fast for 60HE lol

[long dome]

I think cause alot of orders rn are 80HEs

Atleast that's my guess

[bold crypt]

the controvery was covered by GN. It was regarding how NVIDIA basically lied about not selling a lotm of their gpu stock to crypto miners and stock manipulation which was tied to gpu shortages etc etc

[winter nebula]

Gotcha, I must have missed this story

[bold crypt]

yeah, nothing came out of it. it was during the 3000 series i believe. it was a while ago

[crisp egret]

Can I somehow set that when I close Wootility it closes completely and no longer runs in the background?

[lapis galleon]

it does that by default

[storm quiver]

Anyone have silent switch recommendations for the 80HE?

[steep obsidian]

Does anyone know what profile the double shot backlit PBT key caps are? Is it cherry, OEM?

[winter nebula]

OEM

[true cosmos]

Let's gooooo

[real cedar]

What are profiles for btw?

[buoyant solstice]

They help keep your NFTs safe.

Jokes aside they let you set up different keyboard setups for different games or apps.

Like if you want your keys to be really sensitive for Valorant, but can't type on that normally.

[vapid bough]

[merry quiver]

First photos of owned GT 80 builds anyone?

Kbdfans send out the first batch

Mine is on its way, kinda curious how it looks in rl

[red kindle]

what do you think are the thockiest switches for the wooting 80 he because i just did tape mod and i still i am not satisfied

[vapid bough]

ceramic keys would be the way to go

[lucid cape]

Any of u guys having trouble with adjusting from a lifetime fullsize keyboard towards a 80%?

[vapid bough]

i had a 60% before this as well, and this is just a whole new change lol

i switched back to a full size before i got the 80 and its a weird change to get back into

[lucid cape]

Hehe well, I'm getting irritations from missing keys on a 80%

[vapid bough]

typing just seems weird

[lucid cape]

And wanting a fullsize back lol

[vapid bough]

oh i wont be feeling that way at all, i just miss a wrist rest which i can buy for this one again. lol

[lucid cape]

I miss the side ENTER key alot

and numpad xD

[vapid bough]

that is one i will miss as well. you could of got the TWOHe which is their full size keyboard

[lucid cape]

Yeah

Unfortunately

took the 80 because of the v2 switches and 8k polling 🙂

[vapid bough]

that makes sense

[lucid cape]

Hehe yea, i might get used to it. Let's see.

[lime falcon]

youll get used to it soon

[vapid bough]

this one feels better base than the 60he did

[winter flax]

is it normal for spacebar to sound considerably different to the other keys

[buoyant solstice]

It's much larger, so yes.

[cold spruce]

is my rappid trigger on? it says 0.25 so it should be on no?

[buoyant solstice]

No?

[noble berry]

[cold spruce]

but it doesnt stay on when i save it

what do I have to click to make "activate rappid trigger" toggled?

[lime falcon]

It is on

It clearly says you have 0.25 rapid trigger on every key

[cold spruce]

ye thats what i thought too, but several people said no, so i was unsure lol

[lime falcon]

Its enabled

[cold spruce]

yeah, thanks!

[lucid cape]

you need to select a key

then you'll see it

[cold spruce]

ok, thanks

[buoyant solstice]

What you've set is just a ridiculously high actuation, not rapid trigger.

[peak minnow]

am i missing something, since the 80he got released i have been checking and looking for the white variant but i never see it.

[buoyant solstice]

The White Zinc case option is temporarily off the shop, while we investigate concerns from customers about the finish being too easy to scratch off. This is a process that is likely to take several months, and we cannot currently provide a timeline for when it'll be available again.

[peak minnow]

Sounds good, thanks

[cold spruce]

no, these are the actuation settings

[lime falcon]

Youre good

estimated delivery 24/01 🤞🤞🤞🤞

https://tenor.com/view/pepe-clap-gif-25611348

[waxen bloom]

UPS my guy

I got the module tho

Since they have them in stock for the 60HE

So 0 waiting about for weeks on weeks

Went for a black case with white keycaps

To match my current setup

[eager plume]

KBDFANS Gt-80 case

[red heart]

cant wait for mine, coming on friday

how does it feel, everything great etc?

[lime falcon]

Hows 8k polling? is it working properly? because early sample had issues with it

[snow canyon]

this yours?

[lime falcon]

I mean gt80

[eager plume]

Good so far! Typical heavy feel with the brass part at the bottom. I may add a little more dampening soon but we’ll see

[snow canyon]

how does that happen

[eager plume]

Yee

[snow canyon]

oh ye sound test

before and after dampening

[eager plume]

I don’t use 8k polling

[lime falcon]

Early sample of gt80 had issues with 8k polling, because of different daughterboard

[snow canyon]

[lime falcon]

Can you test it

[eager plume]

You don’t need another daughter board

You use the same one that comes stock

[lime falcon]

You need their jst cable, otherwise stock cable is too short for middle port no?

[eager plume]

So in the box, it comes with the longer cable. The only minor change you have to do is flip the original daughterboard 180 so it can fit into the USB C cutout

[lime falcon]

Yes, that longer cable had issues with 8k before, wonder if they fixed that.

[eager plume]

So it’s the cable and not the KBDFans daughterboard? I will test it out soon.

[low token]

Jst connector cable not 80he cable

[lime falcon]

I thought their daughterboard was included, because they offer it now separately on gt80 page

[eager plume]

No it only comes with the cable to use with the original daughterboard

So the case itself has the cutout for their own daughterboard, but you can use the original and it fits just fine, just gotta do the flip

[merry quiver]

Good to know that 👍🏻

[polar mulch]

I guess building is nicer cause you have extra keycaps left over, I'm thinking of removing the pause and insert keys cause who the hell uses those

I need my home and end keys

[lime falcon]

I use pause to... pause the music

[polar mulch]

not a bad idea

[lime falcon]

also use pg up pg dn for next/prev tracks

[polar mulch]

is there an easy way to get back to the default fn rgb stuff

or do I have to make a another new default typing profile

hmm even new default profiles don't have the function rgb keys set up 🤔

[lime falcon]

do you mean keybinds

go in remap, choose fn layer 1 and then click default

[eager plume]

@lime falcon the keyboard can connect to 8k, do you use anything to test?

[polar mulch]

the RGB colors

[lime falcon]

youll notice if it has issues with 8k

if not then good

[eager plume]

I will keep it in 8k for the next few hours, if I have an issue I'll lyk

[lime falcon]

yea and also turn on tachyon mode

[bold crypt]

is it loud?

[eager plume]

It's subjective but for me, a little louder but also more crisp vs. the original case

[timid stone]

I do have a question. I am not sure if this is the right channel for it. I did create a return case for my 80 he keyboard. I created a shipping label from CanadaPost now I have missed it. Is there a way to get it from somewhere or I should pay for shipping label again.

[bold crypt]

interesting, ill keep the case in mind. Im trying to make mine as loud as possible

[viral nova]

I am beyond excited! Just ordered and now get to stare at my Vulcan TKL in disgust for 2 months.....

[verbal solar]

Finally i receiving my 80he today ordered in december estimated early april and now is coming today from dpd

[dense ridge]

@eager plumehi! is the profile much higher then the original wooting case?

[eager plume]

no its actually perfect profile for me

[short bane]

hi

[upbeat narwhal]

🥲

There are things in the software that I don't understand and in Fornite I like it with delay with all the fast tigger put all the sections

And the language won't let me change it, I just see that it's in English

[lime falcon]

you can change language in keyboard settings

[upbeat narwhal]

yes but I mean in the keyboard program xD

[lime falcon]

yes

[upbeat narwhal]

Nothing comes out of me, it comes out in gray

[lime falcon]

are you using web software or desktop

[upbeat narwhal]

I have tested it in both

[odd shadow]

Anyone get to use rappy snappy at all? When I got my keyboard it was banned on cs

[ornate pike]

the feature is banned on cs

rappy snappy snap tap or whatever companies call it its all banned

[lime falcon]

Yea

shortly it was banned tho

[static sky]

Ok i used the keyboard for a couple of weeks on default settings and im ready to explore, is there a guide or something explaining all the different settings and what they do?

[lime falcon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaZuF2KRECU

[arctic quarry]

Question. Is this (north) orientation correct for the geon raw switch?

[midnight iron]

yeah that's right

[verbal solar]

mb ion know much abt this, but can u do this in the remap section/

[lime falcon]

yes

[verbal solar]

alr ty

[winged agate]

I think I'll be there soon!!!!

[buoyant solstice]

Today.

[winged agate]

in 30 minutes!

[pearl cedar]

Has anyone from the UK got any feedback on how long the delivery sits on “on route to final destination “?

[verbal solar]

My package coming between 11:30 AM - 2:30 PM

2 hours and 12 minutes left

[winged agate]

It came!!

[odd shadow]

Yes I know I was asking if anyone has used it like in other games because when I got my keyboard it was already banned unfortunately

[icy cosmos]

How was your delivery?

[winged agate]

fast

[tawdry mist]

hello guys, I am having a bit of problem about connecting the jst cable into the pcb is it fine if I bend the cable or it will damage it

or I put it first on the routing channel

[buoyant solstice]

Follow the video instructions?

[tawdry mist]

yea I was following 😅

I managed to put the pcb on the case but I couldn't put the cable in the rounting channel

[buoyant solstice]

You can use a screwdriver or something similar and wedge the cable into the routing channel, once it's in the connector, and you've got the PCB lifted above the case to screw it in.

[tawdry mist]

I managed to do it I just was a bit scared about breaking it xD

[spring oar]

yay

[winged agate]

Sound diference is crazy ngl

I didn't expect it to be so thocky

[pearl cedar]

Lol, that’s my worry… nothing worse than gaming with someone with a loud keyboard 😂

[red heart]

working on making my 80he as loud as i can

[winged agate]

80he is really silent

[spring oar]

can confirm, the stock switches (lekker v2) is quieter than geon raw

[pearl cedar]

I ordered the geons as well, but if stock is quieter I may just sell them on to someone in the uk

[spring oar]

Depends on your usage, mine primarily rhythm game so lekker is still going to be loud regardless.

[blazing meteor]

cant wait man...

sad part of the story xd

[severe hill]

Oh no 😭

[blazing meteor]

fk germany and eu in general man gotta wait so fkn long

cause of the fkn layout

[red heart]

usa?

[red heart]

germany

[blazing meteor]

hääää

[red heart]

but i ordered almost a year ago

[blazing meteor]

hsöhne

[red heart]

so i got mine last year

[blazing meteor]

wtf thats crazy

but not the 80he right?

[red heart]

It is

[blazing meteor]

damn

https://tenor.com/view/tf2-meme-fridge-scout-gif-4662599414317018485

[red heart]

probably yeah if you like the sound signature

[severe hill]

How Long did You Wait for it ?

[red heart]

i'm going to the city today to get some materials and try to mod a tiny bit

i ordered last year at some point

[blazing meteor]

is the space bar oiled?

cause i heard that it isnt

[red heart]

its pre lubed

[blazing meteor]

and if it is just a lil the switches

jeah lubed i mean

but a lot of reviews said its not enough

almost dry

[red heart]

anyway i posted a sound test with my terrible typing speed over on #🔧│keyboard_modding with the case

keep in mind this also uses after market switches and keycaps

[blazing meteor]

dont see it

[red heart]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

youll have to scroll a little to see it

[blazing meteor]

got it

sounds nice

but i dont get why everyone is going for sound. i want it for the features

[red heart]

what do you do once you have the features

[drifting crag]

i waited 51 days

[blazing meteor]

cant hear it anyway when im gaming kekW

[red heart]

you try to make it feel and sound as nice as you can

[blazing meteor]

gotta wait 3 and a half months xxd

[hidden terrace]

How do the high thing work those white little things that can hold it higher

[drifting crag]

only 100 days

[blazing meteor]

what switches would you say are the best if u want to mod it i chose the lekker v2 45

[red heart]

i am using geon raw he

[blazing meteor]

cause when they feel of im gonna switch

[red heart]

but ive heard good things about jade pro as well

[blazing meteor]

but they where fkn expansive af tho its already 240

jade where like 65 if i remember correct

[red heart]

yeah then go for geon raw he

those are cheaper and still very good

[blazing meteor]

i mean i already ordered with the lekker 45 v2 the "upgraded" version i was scouting through yt trying to find a vid about all the switches from wooting+ the review after they switched to v2

[red heart]

lekker v2 definitely good

[blazing meteor]

and i think money worth wise + the games im playing the lekker 45 fits me the best. he showed good examples in what situations they are better

[red heart]

but if you want an upgrade or want to try something a little different i recommend the raw he

[blazing meteor]

what are they called? the jade or the basic version if u buy the wooting?

[red heart]

geon raw he

they are not on the wooting site yet

but you can buy them from a variety of vendors

[blazing meteor]

ah okay thx was confused, never had a good mech keyboard before. dunno anything about switches like a bot

[red heart]

dont worry we all start somewhere 🙂

[blazing meteor]

after i get the keyboard i can finally call my new setup complete

[blazing meteor]

what lube would you say is good

or does it simply not matter at all what brand

[red heart]

i would not worry about lube for now

[blazing meteor]

aight, so if i get the other switches for example tho. are they pre lubed? they arent right

thats why i was asking

[red heart]

they are pre lubed

lekker v2, jade pro and geon raw he are all pre lubed

and your stabs are also pre lubed

you'll need lube when you do maintenance or relube at some point

[blazing meteor]

i mean the sound and feel is diff. when u lube them againl. thats at least what i saw and heard from the vids

[red heart]

but i would not worry for now

[blazing meteor]

even the prelubed ones from wooting

[winter nebula]

Wiz did you get your salvation setup?

[blazing meteor]

they felt better and sounded nicer after self lubing again

[winter nebula]

Oh no you were waiting for something

[red heart]

my venom pcb isnt in yet so i assembled the salvation but havent built the board

[blazing meteor]

i know i konw

[winter nebula]

Gotcha gotcha

[red heart]

the lube you can buy from wooting is fine

[blazing meteor]

but still the reviews and sound tests after lubing it again showed that it made a diff

thats why im like hmm should i do it aswell

[red heart]

only lube if it feels bad or you really really want to do it

trust me it is a lot of work

[blazing meteor]

aight got it

[red heart]

so if you dont have 4 extra hours dont do it

[winter nebula]

• a strong back

[blazing meteor]

4hrs gaawd damn

[red heart]

thats how long it took me the first time around

[blazing meteor]

well then i will see in 3 months when it finnaly arrives

thx for the info tho, saved the other switches you told me where good just to be on the safe side if i dont like the lekker

[blazing meteor]

differents wise and game wise what would be the right choice?

[red heart]

it just changes the weight of it

[pearl cedar]

Most people choose the 50

[blazing meteor]

thx bud

[red heart]

i like my 50g but i also have some 60g on the way

[winter nebula]

If you're not familiar I'd use your Lekkers and see how you like that weighting first and then decide

Those will be 60gf

[blazing meteor]

aight aight got it thx for the adcive again everyone

[blazing meteor]

ive got the lekker 45

[winter nebula]

Then there you go

I assumed you were doing prebuilt

[blazing meteor]

naah

[blazing meteor]

i wish the metal variant of the case would not be so expansive. would of gotten that. but man 100 euros for a lil zinc alloy is crazy

[buoyant solstice]

That IS the cost of a metal case.

[blazing meteor]

i know i know

as i wrote above. im aware. but 100 euros for that is still crazy if u compare the base price for anything else yk

[buoyant solstice]

Anything else... being?

[blazing meteor]

i mean 230 for everything

[quiet lynx]

the only other metal case on the market right now is the gt80

[blazing meteor]

is it good?

[quiet lynx]

which I believe ends up being more expensive with shipping

[blazing meteor]

damn

[quiet lynx]

no idea

[blazing meteor]

at least in my mind the wooting is the best of the best

[shrewd cargo]

this is the gt80 #🌟│wooting80he message

just the case

if i were to get it straight from china it would be around 105eur before shipping

[blazing meteor]

but, pice wise compared to competetors in the keyboard world the quality and base variants for example in that price segment are all metal

but in therms of what u can do with it wooting is the best

[shrewd cargo]

materials wise maybe, but not the software imo

[blazing meteor]

jup

thats why i went for the wooting

[quiet lynx]

shittier software worse firmware

[blazing meteor]

100%

plus its saving the profiles and so on in the memory

[shrewd cargo]

something like the rainy75rt (full alu, full rgb kom switches, cf plate) is only 123eur before shipping

but the web driver leaves a lot to be desired

[buoyant solstice]

Where on earth are you finding it at that price?

[shrewd cargo]

taobao

[blazing meteor]

anyone got into the croudfounding from wooting before the release of the 80he

[quiet lynx]

also I'd be curious if they actually do true 8k polling or have well written firmware

[buoyant solstice]

And there it is. No VAT or Warranty.

[quiet lynx]

alongside constant support

[quiet lynx]

a lot of companies just make a new product and then stop updating the old ones

[blazing meteor]

i hope wooting will change a lot in the keyboard world and sets new standards for some others

[spring oar]

wtf

[shrewd cargo]

support is workable with a translator app, but the warranty...gotta send it back to china

[buoyant solstice]

I for one prefer having a EU based seller to return things to - and enjoy EU warranty laws 😄

[blazing meteor]

same

[blazing meteor]

will wooting conside a diffrent metal case at some point?

another variant?

[buoyant solstice]

For what reason?

[blazing meteor]

price.

[winter nebula]

To appease the Optimum gods

[blazing meteor]

100 bucks for alloy.

[buoyant solstice]

Like I've already said. Metal costs what metal costs.

[red heart]

100 is normal for metal case

not really expensive for metal tbh

[blazing meteor]

im mean jeah metal cost what metal cost but then its all about hte fixed margin a company want to make

if its 2x then its 2x but normally a company aims for 3-5x

[shrewd cargo]

WOB is reusing the tooling from their MX rainy line so that brings their costs down

[upbeat berry]

with metal cases you cant just take the material value and some margin. there is a value inbetween for machine time and tooling costs

[red heart]

also shipping more expensive cause of all that weight

[blazing meteor]

how much is 1 case after the factory made it not bulk or like 1k for a bulk buy for wooting?

[buoyant solstice]

We're obviously not going to share that information 😄

But suffice to say if no one else is undercharging compared to us, it's a very natural pricing when taking into consideration material, tooling, packaging, shipping and of course post-sale support warranty.

[upbeat berry]

if you wanna know how expensive a single case can be... a company made a guesstimate for wooting 2he (thats a fullsize) alu case when produced for a few hundred people who said they want one. they estimated 300-350eur per case

[blazing meteor]

so it maybe would of been less expanvsive if there would be more ppl buying it i see. since u can start a bigger order at the factory to get % off

[quiet lynx]

even if the case was free they still have to have it packaged put onto a cargo ship go through customs driven to a warehouse pay people to fulfill orders

cost of shipping labels

[upbeat berry]

yes but it shows you how expensive metal machining is

[blazing meteor]

got it got it

[upbeat berry]

like the raw material obviously doesnt cost 300bucks

[blazing meteor]

ofc

[blazing meteor]

is there any information in advance when it will arrive?

[winter nebula]

The estimate on the hub/when you checked out

[blazing meteor]

since when i bought the deliver got put back 1 month

[upbeat berry]

https://wooting.io/product-status?app=batch-checker

this page shows the arrival at the warehouse for batches

[blazing meteor]

after the order in early January it was middle march

now it changed to mid april

[buoyant solstice]

That sounds more like not noticing that you placed a backorder if anything.

[tardy fiber]

Depleted uranium?

[buoyant solstice]

[blazing meteor]

but still

its changed from middle march to middle april

the arrival

thats why i was asking if you guys know when the case will arrive

[buoyant solstice]

Mid April. You already answered your own question.

[blazing meteor]

i know, but since it got thrown back by a hole month im not sure if i check in 2 weeks from now and it shows middle may

[buoyant solstice]

If there's a significant delay, that could happen. We are not omniscient. The estimates you're seeing are directly based off of the information we have available.

[blazing meteor]

aight, thx for the infos, thx for being so fast

https://tenor.com/view/gang-signs-gif-23644682

[static citrus]

guys is there a way to remap a key to the opposite slash of this?

[buoyant solstice]

Not unless your language has that as a base layer key.
If not you'll have to do a DKS keybinds for the button combination needed.

Like "Shift + <" or whatever.

[orchid horizon]

does anyone have a raw zinc alloy with black keycaps and the black wrist rest? I really would love to see how it all comes together

[winter nebula]

Not the Wooting shine-through caps, classic WoB

[orchid horizon]

oh man that looks good

[orchid horizon]

how’s the wrist rest? I already have one but I ordered this one anyone just to match

[winter nebula]

I like it. It took a couple days to get used to, as it's much stiffer than the one I was coming from, but after that it's been smooth sailing. Big improvement is its stability on my desk - my previous one was prone to sliding around, this thing is a rock.

[proper pine]

is setting a LED to [0,0,0] with global brightness 100% the same as if the LED were off? (I'm using that to have LED activated on FN1 layer but off on the base layer)

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

[night crescent]

[0, 0, 0] are values that represent how much of each color (red, green, blue) is included in the color mix. A value of 0 means that color is completely absent. If all three are set to 0, the result is black, which means 'off' for an led.

[proper pine]

So the global brightness acts as some form of multiplication to the RGB values but 0xSomethig is still 0?

[atomic brook]

something like that

[night crescent]

Sort of yeah.

I think the brightness is more related to power then colour multiplication. Its how often the led itself is on. If i remember correctly the led is always cycling between on and off really fast and depending on how fast it is increasing or lowering its brightness. Of course if its to slow you will see it flickering.

[buoyant solstice]

0 to 255

[viral folio]

turn it upside down

[terse shoal]

did anyone else had a "sticky" enter key? there is a light force while pressing

[pseudo seal]

I just plugged my 80HE I use french keyboard on windows and the 80HE was automatically mapped as AINSI is that normal ? the thing is I miss some keys like "< >" should I map them on function layer or is there a proper french AINSI layout somewhere ?

[night crescent]

Have you bought an ANSI Keyboard or ISO ?

[pseudo seal]

ISO

[buoyant solstice]

What browser?

[pseudo seal]

Because I thought it would be better for keycaps/case support (?) and I dont need to look at my keys*

[pseudo seal]

I use the app

[buoyant solstice]

And you're 100% sure your OS is set to use French keyboard language?

[buoyant solstice]

https://help.wooting.io/article/166-how-to-change-windows-keyboard-layout

[pseudo seal]

It was like that when I plugged in

[buoyant solstice]

Oh it's showing ANSI - LAYOUT.
Are you connected to the keyboard?

[buoyant solstice]

Up here to the left.

[pseudo seal]

yeah

[buoyant solstice]

Hit the help button on the left and factory reset the keyboard to ISO.

[pseudo seal]

wait im dumb

I bought an ANSI board

[night crescent]

Oh well 😬

[pseudo seal]

and it mapped as ISO

[lime aspen]

That would do it

[pseudo seal]

I want ISO but I miss some keys

I'm used to type on ISO so I bought ANSI and I wanted to know if there was a premade layout/profile for this specific use

[brisk ruin]

you are physically missing a key then

[pseudo seal]

I think so

[brisk ruin]

well french layouts probably require all of them 😄

[pseudo seal]

well it's okay I just mapped the key on the Fn layout, but I got this layout because of keycaps and case compatibility I think there is a lot more choice am I wrong ?

[night crescent]

Well Case Compatibility is not important, they base layout is the same. But custom keycaps are more common for ANSI.
But yeah, ANSI is missing one key compared to ISO

[proud token]

Hey Guys, I know the keycaps I'm looking for probably don't exist and I'm just gonna have to order the standart white keys from Wooting for my 80HE but what I'm looking for are iso de keycaps in white/bright color with some color accents, shine through and pbt (the keycaps in the screenshot got everything exept being shine through)

[buoyant solstice]

ISO
DE
Custom keycaps

Oh boy. You're in for a rough awakening 😄

[winged agate]

Do you recommend any good-looking cables to wooting 80he?

[proud token]

Yeah I know that already xD but well I'm still gonna try and it doesn't hurt asking some other people lol

[winter nebula]

https://wooting.io/product/detachable-cable

[pearl cedar]

someone mentioned this one yesterday: https://torontokeyboardman.ca/products/rgb-braided-aviator-cable

[twin flax]

Does it really matter zinc alloy vs PCR?
any advise for first time buying wooting keyboard

[pearl cedar]

Don't think so, just personal preference. The zinc is heavy AF though

[red heart]

just personal preference, sound, feel and looks

i like the raw case a lot for example

[mellow current]

Very soft wrist wrest, good cardboard look 10/10

[pearl cedar]

Nice that the wrist rest has the logo on it too... and the beige color is chef's kiss!

[wind granite]

Why is my enter key stuck? I put it in but it just keeps getting stuck. I have the ISO. Do you know what the problem is?

[pearl cedar]

no idea, but did your keyboard come with extra switches? Maybe try another?

[wind granite]

IT only came with 1 enter key

[pearl cedar]

yeah, but maybe it is the switch getting stuck, not the key

take the key off and see if pressing the switch down with your finger has the same issue

[brisk ruin]

Mansen just handled this exact thing. follow his messages here: #🔌│tech message

[mellow current]

fantastic feel aswell, cant wait to play with this

[pearl cedar]

apparently there is a feature where if you need to make notes you can just write on it too!

[split shore]

W Keyboard
Amazing typing expierience, W features just an all in one

[toxic kayak]

When would the Zinc White V2 become available to order via the website? Is there more info on that?

[wind granite]

I Put my enter key and ITS stuck

[brisk ruin]

Follow Mansens messages like I've mentioned: #🔌│tech message

[pearl cedar]

I see his issue is not resolved yet... makes me a bit nervous about receiving my ISO UK in the next few days

[red heart]

dont worry my iso has no such issues

i assume what they are experiencing is a stab that is sticking to the pad

[wind granite]

Didnt helped

[wind granite]

Do you got the 80he to?

[red heart]

yes

i was a 80he founder

[wind granite]

Why do i have the Problem with the enter buttun

[brisk ruin]

for the other person it looks like the stabs are just sitting a bit misaligned, that would be an easy fix as well

[red heart]

its probably an issue with the stabilizers, either they are sticking to the poron pad underneath them due to lube leaking onto the pad or they are misaligned

its also possible that they were assembled incorrectly from factory but unlikely

[wind granite]

Can i send IT Back and get a new one?

[red heart]

i think you can fix this in a couple of minutes no need to send it back

[pearl cedar]

quite possibly, but it would take some time I imagine... there is a backlog on ISO

[wind granite]

Where can I contact someone to return it

[brisk ruin]

I think they keep a small stock of replacements. But trying to solve the problems yourself would obviously be the easier and faster solution

[red heart]

why are you returning when its an easily fixable issue that you can take care of

and you dont need to send it back or wait for a new one or anything

[wind granite]

How can i fix IT?

IS the White Key Thing the Problem?

[red heart]

try to move it up and down and see if there is any resistance or if its sticking to the bottom

[wind granite]

IS this the Problem?

[red heart]

yes

both sides should move together

[wind granite]

But i dont have to unscrewing the Case?

[brisk ruin]

just remove the enter keycap

[wind granite]

Only move IT Up and down

[red heart]

for now to see what the problem is

later on you might have to do something and open the case but it's really not that scary

[wind granite]

Should i make real quick a Video what you can See IT?

@red heart

[red heart]

do you feel any resistance or sticking to the bottom

[wind granite]

Yeah i think

[red heart]

ok

which one does it feel like more

[wind granite]

Idk😂

But i would say both

[red heart]

hmmm
