Beastx mini ftw
lul^
Cat dongle goes hard
I'm already planning on what things i should and want to buy next
White audio setup: Rode PodMic White and White Standard or LP boom arm
Keyboard: Lone pole Stabs (LOL)
Mouse and mousepad: Just need a good control pad that is washable and a new mouse for claw grip like idk a Ninjutso Sora v2
Monitor: 1440p 144hz+
Pretty much all i want/need

LESSGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Wait i thought you recieved the emma set yesterday 😭
It was late
what the flip
well atleast everything came all together
Yeah
did you order the raws from divinikeys?
Yeah
icic
Shipping was $7 lol
not bad at all
so what's the plan now
gonna like put the emmas on the nipple case? 
On everything I love people that work in dhl have less of a clue than me most of the time it is actually impossible to predict how much taxes you have to pay 1 time they wanted 94€ on a 135€ order like it’s actually insane
man you collecting everything
it's not pokemon bro
chill
LOL

I may have collected another couple keycap sets
only thing i collected is more homework
Well I needed one for the 80he ya know and evil dolch just too good to pass up
honestly evil dolch 60% set for $40
pretty insane to me
thats a steal
Seeing GMMK 3 and 3 pro on my news page (on my phone) just makes me wanna unalive myself for a moment
Here we go again
Mama mia
More expensive prices for who knows what!
Idk how I’m feelin, my friends said they like it
That-
Is not how I expected it to be..

Well
Time to shine that rgb
Cus damn idk how to feel about that
With 100% White RGB
I like the set I just dk how I feel with em on this case
They look quite reflective
Yeah honestly I don't enjoy it on this type of case
nah I dont like it lol
I don't think I do either
I think they could look good on the silver frog tbh
Could be good on the raw 80he
raws sound test
?
or is this still black jades
Just regular Jades in that board
I just upgraded my 60he with the super heavy silver plated metal keycaps. Love the metallic sound and look of it.
holy fingerprint magnet...
God I wish they sold full aluminum keycaps
Who sells some?
awekeys
not hating or anything but that windows key being off set kinda sets something off in me
ooh nice, sound test? >:))
You don't have a choice 
deadass?
Man I have literally never seen a keyboard get hated on more than the gmmk3 lol
everywhere I look it’s being flamed
im literally watching a vid abt it now
One of the videos I saw the guys comments was 99% flaming him for recommending the keyboard lol
To be fair he did say it was the best gaming keyboard ever and say it sounded good, so he brought that part on himself
hmm don't love it with that case
but the keycaps are clean af
the case colour is just a bit too dark
👀
Yeah those comments are rough lol
ya
why the FUCK would anyone buy this over a spyder
lol. Keyboards sound like machine gun kelly
I don’t know how you listen to it and think it sounds as one of the best keyboards though
Like even someone with no keyboard experience can tell that sounds bad
No wonder why metal is a music genre
Oh this isn’t about that sound test above fyi just in case it gets mixed up lol. Talking about gmmk3
oh my fking lord diggity dore, it sounds horrible
Void, a 65% layout mechanical keyboard kit with a dual mounting system, top mount and o-ring mount. Void provides an adjustable typing experience that allows users to customize the stiffness and sound characteristics. Users can choose between a top mount for a stiffer typing experience and sound, or an o-ring mount for a softer typing experience...
300 dollars
same cost as gmmk3
😭
1 billion keyboards and not a single one good
if I see another keyboard in this layout….
Zoom 65 v3 has spawned
bro
stock wooting is smth else (in a good way)
way better
but gah fking damn
It’s the most confusing thing I’ve ever seen. He’s fighting everyone in comments insisting it sounds good
how does a lekker v1 beat that piece of crap
no sane person even with zero experience in keyboards listens to that rattly mess and thinks “it sounds amazing”
Membrane be sounding better lowkey...
What's new guys
Glorious cant make keyboards for crap
either that or he's trying to cope by trying to justify how much he paid for that trash 😨
I answered and sent so many emails today my wrists hurt from the typing
Blasphemy
Till you hear it
A good membrane
and then it becomes comparable...
I am intrigued
no, the gmmk 3 just sucks 😂
membranes suck but somehow the gmmk3 could actually sound worse than a membrane
?
wait
I thought you said it was comparable
was he using the "silent keycaps" in that vid?
What even is that?
what?
idk smt glorious said
Yeah he was
he obviously got sponsored lmao
Bruh 🤣
bruddah
The silent sounds of rattling for a soothing typing experience
yeah I did say that but did he need to defend the keyboard in the comments 😂
he not tryna lose the future dough
I posted this earlier. It is really bad
and in case any of you not saw https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/1fdkihk/glorious_deletes_any_and_all_criticism_in_their/
💀
gloros is such a good company
Ah
Only thing positive to say I have about it is dual mode MX / HE interesting
why did this guy keep arguing about the starting price…
ikr
he better be compensated for this ngl
I want to reply to his tweet so bad
but it will be so immature
d1 wooting hater too…
but really this must be bait
deadass?
the only comment is from glorious' account too
wait isn't he that bald guy with glasses
I mean ya
yeah, hes passive aggressive to people saying wooting is better than the gmmk 3 pro he
respectfully, i never liked the guy
Does anyone know about this switch?
Also, I would like to know which maker Co-gain is.
https://eu.dareu.com/products/dareu-ek75-rt
https://x.com/aoshijima/status/1833411356315554255?s=46
gmmk he price 💀💀
i'd understand if he had some basis for why he doesn't like wooting, but his entire reasoning seems to be "it's too hyped"
not as a person but how he reviews stuff
also he decided silent switches are the best sounding(?)
Trying it on the frog
i don't think he even realized the pricing of these keyboards either
not bad
he did say he preferred silent but still calling it “best sounding” or whatever
ngl I thought it would be more matte
oh lawd
I thought they’d be slightly lighter green but they’re kinda dark
prefered and saying it's "best sounding" is just 
he said “it sounded better than every other he board”
lmaooo
for some reason he also seems to think gmmk3 starts at $90
Im starting to feel toxic..
isnt a good spec gmmk he like more expensive than a venom build
against the dude
Yeah much better than the nipple case imo
it starts at like $120, but more like $140 in non NA regions
and $200 for HE version up to $420
thats not even the board hes reviewing so it makes no sense
ngl rare hipyo w
@harsh dove green and silver is always such a good match
Yeah I think it works
yeah def does
yeah he picked the barebones version with no keycaps and switches and said $80
what was the other green gmk set you have?
i forgot
the whole thing is the most disingenious thing i've ever seen lol
Botanical
I took the plate foam outta my bauer lite with xinhais, I can barely hear myself type

ngl
Botanical sounds like a red and black set for me
huh??
idk what that word means 😭
wut how?
idk :(
- : of or relating to plants or botany. 2. : made or obtained from plants.
yo boi dont know english THAT well
there you go
thanks
my country has one big ass one
In my mind i keep thinking of symbiotes from marvel when it came to that word out of the blue 
lol
I wanna see that new aliens movie btw
speaking of that
I love alien predator etc
the original Alien movie is a fkn classic
what made glorious think that having a switch not connect with the pcb a good idea
id cry
i saw it it was pretty good 👍, granted its my first aliens movie ive seen
the sound test hurt my ears
that's good to know
the first Alien movie is insane
the find a huge one in Antarctica
you should listen to the one from randomfrankp
it gets worse
that's the one I heard 
as soon as i heard it i had to close the tab

i get that its he but… how did you make it so bad
370 just makes it so much more worst
frankp’s was like 500(?)
it looks worth 20$
yeah this is just for the gmmk 3 pro HE

i think its the red case
LOL
isnt his color blue 😭

Honestly couldnt think the logitech keyboard could not get any worst
please dont disrespect taobao like that
but gah dayum
well its not even he
at least taobao is cheap
lmao
no im saying like the releases this year from these gaming companies
he bridge75 isnt good for he but rest true
dude
straight up sounds like an office keyboard
😂
it sounds worst than a generic membrane keyboard dafuq
I'll post a photo of it tomorrow LOL
like my days
why did he think that sound test would win people over
how does it get worst
he admitted it sounded terrible
well i dont think he was like "promoting" it
i havent watched the whole vid
ah
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
i can tell he genuinely wanted to like it
but yeah he doesn't seem to be the type of person to like promote things in such way
yeah
He got his own version right
logi k120 mogs it
hah real
i can tell he actually likes the product somehow
lmao
idk why

randomfrankp was my first impression of the keyboard
wait no this has to be sponsored
i havent watch any other vids on it
that's what I was thinking
he fking tags them, this has to be an under the table sponsor
TheTechne one is very sus
concerning
Techne is so odd
Man it's sad how glorious has fallen so far off
ever since he tried to scalp his f&f pulsar mouse I was done with that dude
he kept denying it and telling people off to tell glorious to give him the bag
me buying the gmmk compact was one of my huge regrets in my rabbit hole
and he is one of those tweets
even the keycaps (not really, needed keycaps anyways lol)
bauer lite >>>>>
fr
there's so many good budget keebs now
wouldve bought the bauer lite with that money
ye
like aint no way i spent over $100 just to build a gmmk compact
with akko v3 yellow creams
I absolutely adore the bauer lite
and still not yet satisfied
it sounds so good with so many diff switches
fr
redline would look sick on the red bauer as well
for the same price as that gmmk pro he you can build a full custom wooting 60/80he and itll be infinitely better
yeah I almost got that instead of 8008
I think redacted looks the best on the rouge tbh
and maybe orange too
yeah i was a sucker for both during the happy hour sale
redacted looks great on all of them tbh
redacted sick as well
haha
for gaming it's not bad at all
usually only good for wasd gaming
yes agreed
pretty comfy on a tilted angle
allows me to rest my hand properly
but hate it for typing
same
but i still use it normally for both typing and gaming
even with the keebmat raising the height of the board lol
if I'm using my gaming keeb I will
but otherwise I don't
especially cause it helps my left hand when gaming but I use space with my right when typing
so… wanna explain why a 9/10 is above a 10/10 ignoring the keyboard selection
idfk
tofu or alumazw?
both are decent
tofu is clean and minimal and alumaze is more fun
i only got the tofu because the alumaze and wrist rest are ever so slightly different lengths
sound wise imo sounds pretty close but that depends on your build of course
lmfao
he even said hes not a keyboard guy so why defend it so much and hate others sharing an opinion
ya ik
but his stuff goes further than this
ill stop but this kinda leaves a bad taste
im so torn on the mictlan novelties, they are so nice
do you have any keycap suggestions that goes with the stock wooting cable ana black tofu?
rn im using gmk stargaze clones (spacebar is so thin you can see the rgb through it)
Speaking of keycaps can someone shair their 60HE with wooting's black and white wave keycaps?
share
up to ur budget
if you dont mind look thru ur local retailers
id recommend actual gmks and pbtfans personally
yeah but its kind of a lot for well yk keycaps
yea ofc
ill check out pbtfans
for cheaper options just look thru the internet
👍
closest thing i got is microcenter
but its just glorious/razer keycaps
here a list for reputable retailers
thanks
with my build they were drastically different
alumaze sounded much more hollow/pingy
i should probably wait before i pull the trigger on the geon raw he switches huh
im on the jades rn
i'd consider waiting for the proper jade pro and other new jade launch
Used both the foam included with the redux and stock foam from the Wooting 60HE (giving it a gentle push to align the usb port). Really happy with how the board sounds, but should I be worried about the PCB?
sale on geons website is ending in a few days, just a heads up
the woot code one?
i believe its recommended to use one or the other and not both
yeah
https://deltakeyco.com/products/geon-raw-he-switch has them in stock in the next day or so they said (for eu folks)
Geon Raw HE Switches specifications: Each pack contains 10 switches Linear Hall-Effect Switch Top Housing: PC Bottom Housing: Nylon Stem: POM Spring: 15.0mm, Single Pre-travel: 0.1 ~ 3.3mm (Analog) Total Travel: 3.4mm Initial Force: 36.0g Bottom-out: 50.0g Magnetic Flux: Initial: 160Gs Bottom-out: 720Gs 2-Pin Lubed
Just got my raw HEs and my pbtfans Kabuki cho r2 keycaps, hype to install them later tonight :))))
oof thats right
im getting all my mods in roughly 2 weeks
any idea when divinikey will be able to restock 50g raw he? cost is cheaper there in total than geon web + code
they were in stock this morning
I still got some screws and o rings coming for burger mount mod and I'll see how I like the keeb without tape mod with the new stuff and see how it is
sold out immediately
lol
sad
GLORIOUS now makes HE keyboards
i bought the jades when they first came out and now im just trying to find an excuse to upgrade lmao
i asked on their discord and didnt really get a response
Hahaha fair
i guess ill just wait till reviews for the max come out and see how they are vs the raw
Such a mood tho
i have another wooting haha ill just put the jades there
Damn one for home and one for work?
nono so i bought when the founders campaign first happened and i kept that stock and when the module came out i went all out on that instead
what screws did you buy? and where
Ahhh hahahah
M2x6mm from amazon
Uxcell or something
flat philips im assuming?
i wasnt sure which lengths to go with
And that’s due to the risk of the pcb bending in guess?
Think so
I heard that 6mm is preferred but 5mm works fine as well
ah okay got it
From wootings video it didn't seem to make a difference with feel but it seemed to sound better
im not sure if its risk of bending but just what i heard from a lot who built it on yt
well wooting used the stock screws which compressed them a lot
stock screws are 4mm(?)
Mmm yeah I think so
yeah in their tutorial there was a single thread poking out
Should be 5mm
4mm for the pcb and plate
Don't got a caliper but I do know the pcb and plate screws are a mm less than the stock tray mount screw
Would recommend going for 6mm screws if youre burger mounting
any idea how long the screws that come with the tofu are
Yeah stock 5mm works fine but a bit longer would help you secure the mount and allows you to adjust it better
No clue thh
Should check the descriptions page
I'm guessing 6mm
it just said 1x screw set 🥲
Someone said tofu screws are longer than tofu. Idk, it's been a while
the 80he iso will need like 85 switches?
@fluid ravine how did you fix your spacebar? Sound even and nice now
The gmmk 3 pro pcb can hotswap between HE switches and normal switches, Is that something never seen before?
It’s been done in some Chinese boards before already
Would not be surprised if gmmk is using the same manu
Any downside of it?
Pcb is littered and more expenses
wait what
geon raw he in stock on delta now - eu/france vendor
Geon Raw HE Switches specifications: Each pack contains 10 switches Linear Hall-Effect Switch Top Housing: PC Bottom Housing: Nylon Stem: POM Spring: 15.0mm, Single Pre-travel: 0.1 ~ 3.3mm (Analog) Total Travel: 3.4mm Initial Force: 36.0g Bottom-out: 50.0g Magnetic Flux: Initial: 160Gs Bottom-out: 720Gs 2-Pin Lubed
but the HE switches are getting better and better these days, perhaps we will no longer need MX switches anymore soon
I dont see that happening any time soon, mechanical switches are simpler, and in most cases you dont need HE switches(still nice to have though)
Can't wait to see what's to come in the next 4-6 months
Sound, stem wobble, and they are quite cheap compared to jades
dont buy jades in this point, the jades pro seems much better
Raws still might be even better than these though
very much so
Also probably still cheaper
Jades pro 0.8 per 1 
How much is the raw he after coupon?
Sound it mx will always be better than he
Stiffer and better in actuation
MX Black (ergo clears are also good for tactile lovers) on Alu O-Ring 60% > every HE board
And it sounds similar to jades
Like 40 cents per or similar. But probably 45-50 per after shipping and such
0.34 pre shipping pre taxes
0.6 at eu vendors
Geon is well known to offer his products cheaper
So do we all agree that Raw HE > Jades?
Yep
Easily
Jades yes, jades pro not sure
Jade pros too honestly. Because at best it’s equal for more price to buy Jade pros
Only reason I can think why you’d buy jade pro over raw he is if you really want that minor pitch difference of jade vs raw he sound
i think jade pros, lekker and raws are all A atm
jade pros being a-, lekkers being a and raws an a+
RAWs do have better springs for sure
RAWS > Jade Pro > Jades? what about raptors?
i do think the jade pros falls short of expectations for an improvement
Raptors not in consideration
quite bad rn in comparison to evrything
i do think deciding between these 3 comes down to preference
and anything else is objectively worse
Nobody really cares about raptors anymore
undestandable
The sound test of the jades pro from gateron officially sounds awful, I have no idea why
they were
disappointing
but still they are the only makers of a marblely sound
so it is what it is
All im contemplating rn is the bottom-force for the RAW switches. Im not sure if the lightest (40gf) would be TOO light
what are you used to?
Thats what I was thinking
maybe you could dabble with the 50s
me reading gateron jade vs geon raw discussion be like:
- order jades from wooting.io
- but wait, raws better? i order raws...
- but wait, there are jade pros? but i already got normal jades ordered tho..
- googling jade pros what the fuck are Jade Max switches man
???. realizes i have entered the rabbit hole of buying better switches until the end of time
if ur looking for smt lighter

its all prefernce just for sound
no objective benefits
Basically just go raw he 
dont get the jade max tho
I feel this to the bone
its fking 1 dollar per switch
Ridiculous
are jade max out yet
Buy RAWs be happy
any sound samples etc
dont even consider
lol!
is ass
1$ a switch is wild
idk, my normal jades will arrive along with lekker v2s and 80he this month i suppose
ya id reccomend u try them out
I'm sticking with my ws dashes until some (actually good sounding) silent/quiet switches come out
I will when it isn't short travel, goofy ass feeling for typing imo
its quite good
The new silent HE from gateron sucks ass
youll get used to it tho
I do run MX Hirose/Black/Vints for my other boards and i'm fine typing on RAWs
Maybe cuz I've used BCPs back then
I have Jades and some long pole MX, it's ok, I don't hate it but would never buy again
I get it
Guys I ordered me the Gateron Jade + Lube any tips on what I should do to the Stabs? Lube them or Replace? Do the Gateron Jades come with replacement stabs? TY
if you have good quality keycaps you can just use the default stabs
but if you dont mind, there is no harm in using the given long pole stabs
hey ty. what would be considered good quality? i have the wooting keycaps
GMK and SP
not shit keycaps
wooting is good dw
alr ty ty
I believe so
yes
I'm still contemplating if I want to go with 50gf bottom out force for the RAW HE's or go for the 60's.... Im used to browns but Im not sure if I want to try and go lighter
I got the 50s on my set and I've only ever used 60s I think
I'll lyk how it feels hahaha
that'd be great, thank you!
I'll lyk when everything is back in
yeap alr talking to him about getting an insert for my home cluster
thanks for looking out tho :P
oh damn what types of custom stuff they have?
looks like it's customisable
he does custom designs for his plates with ur preference
you can check out the reviews to get an idea of the stuff he can do
yea I might get it for the 80he
tho I kinda do want to use the keys tho
it's clean af and having rgb is nice
I've been using 60% so I don't mind losing the home cluster
I mean it's not like it's a permanent mod too the insert should just fall out once you turn the keyboard over :V
acrylic option isn't too expensive either and his designs look real good
man I might look into it
let's just see how much it hurts not using the cluster first
for an insert looking that good I don't think I'd miss my home keys much x)
you can get an aliminum insert to match zinc case too
hows the weight? do you prefer them over the 60s you used previously?
yeah feels effortless but it doesnt feel so light that im accidentally pressing keys
no worries my man
i forgot the numpad kit for my kabuki cho set and i wanna die coz of how scuffed it looks
we're both used to only 60g bottom out thats why
I asked because just like me, he was previously using 60s, and I was contemplating
and i just used 50 for the first time now
yea
but since u expressed interest in 50’s you deffo should try it
doesnt mean youd necessarily like it
i know people who were on 60g bottom out and now prefer 80g+
Ive had MX blacks before
its just one of those things
they feel fine for me, but obviously on the heavier side
i used blues for 12 years
so I was contemplating going a little lighter
50 is nice
love blues
i dont think i could go back after using these raws lol
no worries haha
The numpad is literally painful
Have to wait a week to fix this 😦
awh shit
oh well tho
just a week!
yeah hahaha wont be long until it looks clean
ripppp
im glad i just went fuck it and got the full size
if i got this 80 i wouldnt be missing keys tho...
yea i know, I have hte wooting Two as well, however I got 2 faulty LEDS that were dead on arrival
rip
so instead of getting a replacement, Ive decided to just refund it
that sucks
and get the 80HE
yeah fair
and I still have to wait for their reply to my refund request so can use the Two HE until they do :D
ahaha yea
wooting two is so much better than the razer blackwidow i was using before
with the geon HE's its like a different keyboard almost its amazing
I can imagine man
To be honest
I don't know what happened..
yea
Did u try swapping the stabilizer
to make sure its a problem there and not like
the switch or something
standard gaterons i think
Saw someone mention another type of switches but forgot the name ... tmr?? I don't remember. Was going to look em up but now I can't find it anymore.
swap the stab too
and if its the specific stab
just redo the job
wipe lube relube

geon raw he
and have u done the part where u put the backspace stab into the enter stab and vice versa, or switch out any other 2u in
thats like the first thing you test
to see if its that specific stabilizer with an issue
Hmm, I don't think that was it? Cause that is pretty much my go-to option if the other stuff I was looking at doesn't convince.
Ah I read through a bit more and I get what is actually being said now. My bad. But yeah basically just going to sit through this next few weeks and see what those new gaterons sound like in a proper test. Also thanks for whoever posted that french webshop that stocks geons now, nice way to not have to deal with import duties 😔
Raw he
Yeah I am leaning towards the raws tbh, they sound great to me. But my 80HE is like mid november so I dont have to rush. Yeah the new ones, although the Max(?) are ridiculously priced, I want to see them put to the test just out of curiosity
If I was getting it sooner I would have just ordered the raws already TBH
We use Gateron stabilizers
where are you
eu na au
EU (NL)
uk, my first though is always new zealand for nl
We don't, but I do think if you reach out to social@wooting.io they may be able to sell you a replacement part.

@gusty patio
Good stuff thanks 👍 nice to order from within EU. I think I will sit through the next few weeks and see if anything interesting pops up after people get them in their hands from either reviewers or first batch owners. I won't need them for like 2 more months anyway
dragapult keycaps 
https://drop.com/buy/drop-captain-sterling-dcx-dragon-darts-keycap-set?defaultSelectionIds=987792
Non wooting question but ALPS would be split spacebars and MX would be single regular size spacebar right? Krepublic doesn't make it very clear which probably means it's obvious, just want to be sure lol
Forgot drop also have keycaps, thought they only do headphones
How do I gasket mount my wooting
@stone flax I swapped the top housings from the raws to my black knights with 80g springs. 🤌🏻🤌🏻 Now they look like monochromes lol

theyre so pretty
pics??
yeah the new metal set they put up on their store looked pretty nice, grey black or deep blue choices 
😭 no moneh
same
Gonna keep my keycaps budget around $100
a good choice id say
Is it possible to gasket mount with a steel plate?
many good sets
keykobo is so disgustingly good
gmk goes on sale a ton too
for vendors
abs sounds yummy
Seems to be based on Asia, thanks for telling me
yooo thats sick
I’ll have to get some when I get home
thoughts on fr4 plate and geon raw/jade max? vs pc plate
just theorizing while i wait for the max reviews
How they sound and feel?
I have an fr4 plate and my jades' housing is swapped to black knights (less wobble), maybe it'll give you some idea of the sound
which wooting you talking about
I got my PP plate from HypeKeyboards today. I like it. It's a tad deeper sounding than my POM was. Especially the spacebar. Feel is the same I would say.
someone told me yesterday that tx ap's had some issues fitting onto the board but i already purchased them and they come in ~2 weeks
they said to get knights instead
I’m still waiting on black sw knight stabs to throw in my nylon plate

frog scheduled to arrive in 2 days
lol! how you liking the nylon plate?
I haven’t put it in yet
Tired of dealing it apart so many times so want to wait for Knight stabs lol
It looks good. Fair shade of grey
Little worried it might stand out but we’ll see
have someone tried out the tape mod on the 60he? I ordered both 80he cases (zinc and PCR ABS) and Im scared to use the tape mod and screw up the module thats why Im planing to order 2 modules instead
but if you guys have tried the tape mod in the 60he and is safe enough I wont need it
use a sharpie for extra blackness 😎
the only thing ive noticed is it gets like a few degrees warmer but the pcb should be fine
you have the jade pros?
yes i bought some
how are they?
are the jade max closed bottom after all?
lol yeah I might just spray paint it if it’s a concern
Ez fix tho
cant tell with the transparency
just checked - closed bottom.
ah nice
the bottom of the jade max are pa12 nylon iirc
Geonworks is using the same material for the top housing of their raptor he switch
so why are they cheap
ive been told that the max are expensive because of the bottom housing being made of pa12
hmm contradictory statements it seems
$150
neat
is there such a thing as a tiny external screen I can somehow clip onto my keyboard :3
I live in Canary Island so maybe its not worth to mess around to not find out

whats the average temp there?
24-25
its not bad
currently where i live its also around that right now
so no issues on performance and the plate still in good condition after applying the tape mod?
looks interesting
do you have it for clackier or thockier sound?
I mean the switch color mattered to me cause I in fact can see the switches, so I made a black frankenswitch for that reason
but there's no way in hell you can see the stabs lol
the pcb isnt fully black too btw 
the wires are golden on sw knights too
personally i dont really hear much difference
there is a slight change though i am new to keyboard modding and im using the stock case
I know bro you don’t have to rub it in
The bane of my existence
actually now that I think about pcbs, venom60he has no rgb which probably saves some power for 8khz
it's all black too 😄
Oh damn bro
You have my attention

Black Alu plate from cafege is stateside
Only a matter of time
Also waiting for that so I can kind of compare all 3 materials
I believe 60% venom pcb releases soon, and its specific features would be 8khz, no rgb, support for more layouts like split backspace, 7u spacebar
but I think it might not be as good in the firmware/software department as wooting, so we'll see
if the rumored 60he pro is the same stuff it'll be insane
Right
60HE PRO BLACK?!????

Idc about the diff layout and stuff. Although the symmetrical bottom row is kind of neat
8k would be nice tho ngl
Understandable. I swapped plates and redid my stabs while working from home today lolol
Nice.
yeah considering that the standard 60% layout is just ripped out of the standard tkl/100% layout, the big spacebar looks kinda interesting, like it is its own thing for a smaller 60% keeb
What’s your current config?
50A tadpoles, PP plate, RAW HE with dual stage springs from AE (48g), silicone sandwich pad
SW Knights V1s
I have these springs too but havent really tried them in a board yet
how do they feel?
I love them
I have the lightest weight options
And compared them to stock BK and l35 springs
The dual stage is pretty nice and smooth NGL
Yeah I like them as well - bag lubed and threw them right in
especially if you want control like analog style
yeah I do want control, but still not sure if dual stage vs heavier spring does it for me
cause these 70g springs feel nice lol
It’s much smoother through rather then more of an actuating clicking type of press where the pressure/resistance changes throughout
Where you get dual stage HE springs?
AE
Link?
I think I like the fact that they are long - they feel snappier
yeah I noticed they were quite long
compared to black jades' dual stage springs
my raws and geon springs are in the nearest city, should arrive very soon and I'll be trying out all the fricking springs lol
Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! $2.73 | 22mm Two-Stage Magnetic Switch Spring Custom Gaming Magnetic Keyboard Wooting Gateron Magnetic Jade Switch 28g 35g 45g 55g 62g

yeah you're gonna have a ball with everything you got coming in
true lol
I also got me some beyerdynamic headphones
gonna be hearing all the rats in tarkov
Thanks, 80g dual stages sound great
which ones did you get. I'm rocking DT990 Pros on my 6th year I think
Good headphones make a world of difference
I got DT770 Pros cause I don't think my current environment is good for open back headphones
Yeah I get that
Yeah I love my open backs but I get that
yeah I need to try them some time
which ones you got?
Sennheiser 560s
They hold up so well. I only swap the cushions every 2 years or so
With an ifi zen v2 DAC/amp
Pretty happy.
Don’t care to upgrade until if/when I go full splurge on 800s and a full stack lol
ah yeah all the good stuff usually needs an amp too
for now I got me 80 ohms as I believe they don't really need an amp, but they can benefit from it
yeah that's next if I ever upgrade lol
Yeah same with 560s. They’re done direct to PC but the DAC/amp is definitely nice addition
lol yeah. I keep seeing decent deals pop up online but I’m not ready to drop that kind of cash
So many other things to buy first lolz
what's the name of the stack again
I'm sold on iems
is the brand schit or something
Truthear zero reds converter me
What are you powering them off of?
for now nothing really
I have an audient evo interface
are those stickers lol?
The pinky thingymajiggy?
yeah
Theyre Ultraglide ultragrip
0.1mm griptape fr
My gf stick them on bcs the griptape sheet layout looks like theyre for keyboard

Btw its not a wooting one
@polar girder as a gamer do you find open backs provide any help with hearing footsteps better or do they just sound nicer for everything including music?
and also is your room treated in any way?
yall got me thinking maybe I should try open backs after all lol
I run the JDS Labs Atom 2 stack
And I can turn the furnace/AC off from my phone while I game for a couple hours lol which is nice
But they are awesome for hearing shit yes.
I used to play CoD and that was the big reason I upgraded from Turtlebeachea
But now they’re stellar for CS2
Directional audio pretty solid
I enjoy listening to music on them
All of the above
it must be nice having your own house compared to commie concrete boxes we live in lmao
I guess I will just order open backs too and just compare them
lol true 
I think it’s worth the experiment
I kind of want to try IEM’s for the same reason
Saw a crazy deal on some IE300’s the other day
But I can’t do the in the ear thing
My ears are shot as is lol
I need to retest all of the switches in the 80HE to see if any of the under performers changed at all.
First I need some 80HE's though
These should work
I'll have to delete that eventually Im sure 
Save image as...
yeah nah + you'd have to clean them properly every now and then zzz
IEMs are probably great for super locked in sessions, but I think im starting to prefer something comfortable for long gaming/working sessions
and that too 😄
imma tell calder about this 
Oh I’m always super locked in 
@stray tiger What are your methods of testing the switches if they are compatible?
I haven't dug too deeply into the switch stuff since I got my 60he, but are there any silent HE switches out that work with the wooting boards?
Simon gave me some parameters to check and we worked to develop a testing process/methodology which is pinned. Also, not sure if it was made public but the analog monitor is now available online! - https://analog-monitor.wootility.io/
I glanced at that list of switches but didn't see any, not sure how up to date it is.
Gateron brings a 'silent' switch. But I don't think it is really that muted
dang
wait which one is that?
If I'm only allowed one leaked picture. I'd like it to be this one (for obvious reasons)
that's super cool
Cant wait for you guys to see all of them. Some are legit works of art
All good. Impressed with the detail on that image tho
my buddy ordered both of us 80he's last night, he was feeling generous I guess. I'm also debating between swapping out the standard L45's on my 60he for V2's, or trying out those geon raw deals, both options sounded good in the test video wooting posted.
Silent jades. Still has to come. I asked internally if I could get some samples sent.
oh they ended up doing pics on the pcb?
silent jades are a thing?!
These are all images from volunteers and employees
ah neat
ooohhh. I'm definitely interested in them if they're even a little bit quieter.
We didn't have time to sell spots like we did on the 60HE
Stem swapped raptors are also a bit more quiet if you don't want to wait. Not silent, but quieter.
lol if they are "jades" per se, so they must be closed bottom? but silent at the same time lol
maybe one can replace the bottom housing to an open bottom for a super duper quiet switch then
I thought about going that route earlier this year when I got my board and was watching every video I could find, but ultimately decided to wait for a better option.
@stray tiger nice. You have a lot of work ahead of you
Not sure on exactly how and what. Believe the upstroke was silent, not so much the bottom out. But I don't know exactly anymore.
Believe someone shared some pics in discord
Indeed. I was told that the sensor range on the 80HE might be wider than the previous sensor, so I want to see if some of the weaker switches or maybe even the reverse polarity ones end up working better now.
Somebody get this man more switches!!!!
I think between me, Cam and Aligner we have most of them
Sweet. Wish I could do some official testing. I love building boards.
What's you guys' opinion about POM plates?
Anyone can be a tester! We can't do this alone, we need the community to help
Is there a channel for me to get info on this
This is the channel. We welcome all tested, verified, reported information and results.
it helps if you end each message here with "glory to geon and all that he touches"
Oh ok sweet.
lol
Wtf…. We could have identical builds if i got 50a tadpoles
Praise be.
Always and forever.
All roads lead to the Kingdom of Geon.
how do you like ur 50a’s over 80 @elfin garnet
"Blessed be thy Woot"
this blud dont even main raw he’s

I like it over 80 because I feel the case pings less on top row
POM generally pretty good if you're after some thock, makes a deeper sound then say PC
definitely why im consdering it
def worth a try
people mention it helps deal with resonance cause it kinda just dips in rather than smack down on the case
yeah exactly
either 50 or 60
im thinking
hmmmmmMmmmMmmMmm
surely softer is better

dont think there's much difference between the two. Luckily tadpoles are the easiest thing to swap out
Man we’re so close to even eu starting shipping. Already Thursday in some places
The two weeks without my 60he hasn’t been as bad with 80he not far away
Where is your 60HE?
Sold it since it was being demoted to my travel board with 80he incoming. Going to replace with the totally not leaked 60he pro whenever that comes out
Definitely not in the last livestream somewhere
the tadpoles
I actually bought those from Geon as well and the second case I bought used came with all of them
So not the product page where it says "Add-ons" first
