but just that tiny bit of travel i dont think is worth. mx once you know when you gonna meet the actuation i feel like stopping is actually more consistent in val.

yea

cs when you have SOCD you are legit cheating, because counter strafe is so important in that game.

[calm pulsar]

yeah its fair
I might try to do an MX build and see how it's for gaming

[kind helm]

val is like people are still debating letting go/ counter strafe is better

[calm pulsar]

HE is still nice with customizability and stuff

and rapid trigger is still a nice feature

[little glen]

I kinda want to make an mx board for work

[kind helm]

yeee

[kind helm]

i have a mx board with gateronkaih silent brown and a ton of foam.

:3 plastic board i just carry around when i go to lab

[little glen]

I want giant metal case to beat someone with

But i think i‘m linear enjoyer now so i‘d probably go for some linears idk

[calm pulsar]

if I do MX I might go for Geon Raptor Extreme Gaming lmao

so that it's still "gamer"

[untold wigeon]

What do I do with the extra piece of foam that comes with the module

I already got the alumaze foam in

[opal umbra]

honestly i like linear and tactile equally

[kind helm]

tactile gang rise up

[little glen]

I want to try the linear roller switches or something idk

Sounds interesting

[little glen]

Stash it away incase you spill a can of coke on your board and the foam gets all nasty or whatever

[kind helm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIlqBQM3lk8 the way he describe the sound got me into this switch

[calm pulsar]

lol it reminds me of topre

[opal umbra]

this is my tofu 65 2.0 with nk creams

this is my tofu 65 2.0 pc version with lychee milk tactiles

[opal umbra]

this one is a pc plate

[opal umbra]

this one is pom

[kind helm]

the whole board costs me less than 75 i think

the whole board is less expensive than wooting's fucking pcb

[calm pulsar]

damn its like you slap me on the face in the beginning

so loud

[opal umbra]

yeah i dont really like the sound on that tbh

[opal umbra]

oh yeah lol

[calm pulsar]

liking this one more personally

[opal umbra]

my snaps were super loud on that one

[kind helm]

yea i didn't bother to mod this one at all

only lubed the stab and added the switch

[wild hemlock]

who wants like 65 TTC kom HE switches?

[calm pulsar]

https://youtu.be/0wIpOoHGHww

im hoping to achieve this

[opal umbra]

yeah i prefer it too

i do like typing on a tactile switch a little bit more than linear tho

[calm pulsar]

hell nah

[kind helm]

@opal umbra what about this one

[wild hemlock]

why 😭

are they that bad

[calm pulsar]

yeah I miss tactility

[calm pulsar]

nah pretty sure theyre fine, I just didnt like the sound tests lul

never had em

[opal umbra]

very poppy sound

i dont mind it

[wild hemlock]

do you want them for free

[kind helm]

i am typing on my tactile board right ow and it feels so exciting xD

[opal umbra]

i just switch between my boards based on how i feel

[wild hemlock]

i ripped them out

[kind helm]

yee i used to stuff a lot of foam and s44t to my board

[calm pulsar]

damn there's so much stuff in MX world to try
on HE there's open bottom and closed bottom, that's it xd

[kind helm]

this one is more higher pitched

[wild hemlock]

does anyone have black knights

[opal umbra]

wdym by mx world

[calm pulsar]

oh yeah this is the one I liked better

[wild hemlock]

in an HE keyboard

[opal umbra]

like normal mech switches?

[wild hemlock]

willing to send a sound test

[calm pulsar]

yeah

[opal umbra]

oh yeah

[kind helm]

i feel like "clack" works so well with he switch

[opal umbra]

i only use my wooting for gaming

[kind helm]

magnetic switch is all on the higher pitch side

[opal umbra]

i will always prefer a mechanical switch just for typing

[calm pulsar]

they should be similar to lekkers, maybe just cleaner sounding

[opal umbra]

unless they change how HE switches are

[wild hemlock]

Okay so i should swap them for my TTC kom switches

[kind helm]

also the most expensive one, the case alone costs more than those two other boards combine

[calm pulsar]

I hope some day there will be no difference and even all the nerds like alexotos will be building HE boards lol

[kind helm]

i need to try so hard for he board to sound good

mx you kinda just lube the stabs, get some decent switches, then you get something "good enough"

[opal umbra]

i just watched a building stream vid of him building my new board coming soon

[kind helm]

he... them lekker v1.... them og jade

[calm pulsar]

lol me too

[kind helm]

fcking nightmares

[calm pulsar]

which one you're getting again?

[opal umbra]

odin 75

[calm pulsar]

there's also more mounting options

[opal umbra]

yeah u can actually have some flex

unlike an HE board

[kind helm]

i saw keybored's vid on wooting and was like "oh shit is he gonna come up with some crazy mounting mod again"

[calm pulsar]

oh it looks similar to 80he kinda

[kind helm]

nope just a normal review

[calm pulsar]

yeah whats sad is all the keyboard content creators never do good stuff for HE

I think the best builds are actually in this channel

[kind helm]

yea

[calm pulsar]

even alexotos, when he did an HE board, of all variables he chose holy60 and some gateron orange switch💀 💀

[kind helm]

i think thockson's keeb is the peak of tofu redux for wooting rn

[calm pulsar]

considering its not even tofu redux 😄
but yeah his board is great, I even prefer the look of his case

[opal umbra]

oh yeah its almost the same layout

[kind helm]

its essentially the same shit, LOL alu box with some standoffs

[opal umbra]

only this is i will be able to use mechanical switches with it

[kind helm]

waht kind of mounting you can do with that

[calm pulsar]

damn if I got so many HE switches just to tailor the sound a little bit, what's gonna happen to me when I get an MX pcb

[kind helm]

i see the mx boards nowadays can do multiple different type of mounting

W engineering work

[opal umbra]

let me check

[kind helm]

nahh you brought it without knowing that

[calm pulsar]

what's great about venom60he, is that you can use it in all the cool MX boards
I will be able to do proper gummy oring moung in luminkey lx 60

[kind helm]

yea

[opal umbra]

it says leaf spring mount

[calm pulsar]

like salv

[opal umbra]

but every build video i see uses these gasket socks

so idk

[kind helm]

i am still hopeful that sticky rice can do like a proper plateless

[opal umbra]

ive always been confused on it

i dont mind it tho cause i love the gasket sock mount

[kind helm]

salv the og leaf spring but apparently poopy finishing on the case

[calm pulsar]

I wonder how cosmos salvation will look irl

[kind helm]

this one?

[calm pulsar]

I dunno, is it this? https://salvun.com/products/salvation-x-cosmos

[kind helm]

me no like, looks hella messy

[calm pulsar]

yeah and gmk cosmos might be way darker than the case

so not sure

[agile temple]

hello

[kind helm]

also like key caps most of them would look clean, then with this case i feel like would be weird af

[calm pulsar]

gmk cosmos might end up looking like this, just without alphas lol

[opal umbra]

the case looks like foam

on that board

very grainy

[little glen]

Foam case that sounds great

[kind helm]

mine is betta hehehe

[opal umbra]

not for the average gamer rager

[little glen]

I want a case made out of yellow kitchen sponge

[kind helm]

i think you can probably do it

[opal umbra]

is that your board

[kind helm]

yea

[opal umbra]

looks very nice

[kind helm]

[kind helm]

if this exists there is no reason you can't make a sponge case

[calm pulsar]

keycaps too expensive

they should be cardboard too

[kind helm]

[wild hemlock]

josh can i have your keyboard

😄

[opal umbra]

This is my tofu 65 2.0

[calm pulsar]

the kinda keycaps I wanted to get for my gf

[opal umbra]

i got it off of amazon

they looked really cute

makes my board kinda look like a typewriter tho

[calm pulsar]

does tofu65 also have a ton of mounting styles?

[opal umbra]

it has 3 different ones

[wild hemlock]

what are they called

[calm pulsar]

thats nice

[wild hemlock]

i need them

[opal umbra]

what the keycaps?

[wild hemlock]

yeah

[opal umbra]

lemme find them

[kind helm]

gave this to a lady friend

womier with gateron milky yellow

[opal umbra]

https://www.amazon.com/Hyekit-Keycaps-Mechanical-Keyboard-Dye-Sublimation/dp/B0CGNPPYGG?pd_rd_w=DDZGL&content-id=amzn1.sym.2301d529-61cf-4c52-a694-4383fe0e2fbe&pf_rd_p=2301d529-61cf-4c52-a694-4383fe0e2fbe&pf_rd_r=E37CWHPQXV08A8DKZGDD&pd_rd_wg=hgzH0&pd_rd_r=e45db618-7de6-43b5-bd3a-b73b79c3bd02&pd_rd_i=B0CGNPPYGG&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_d_grid_rp_0_1_ec_cp_pd_rhf_ee_s_rp_c_d_sccl_1_3_i

these are the keycaps i got

[kind helm]

2 cables for aesthetic

[opal umbra]

oh yeah i use it for different boards

thing is i am gonna have a black board soon

i think i might use the pink wire for it

[kind helm]

new deskmat, new cable, new mood

[opal umbra]

the blackpink reference

[wild hemlock]

time to make a keyboard for my dog 😄

[kind helm]

lowkey that is exactly why i think there IS a reason to try caps from amazon

i think bigger brands typically they don't go so crazy with the figures and patterns

[wild hemlock]

whats the cheapest PCB i can get?

[opal umbra]

yeah the bigger brands are a lot more minimalist

[kind helm]

https://kineticlabs.com/keycaps think this site's keycaps is very much your type

i wouldve try something like this if i got the white case instead

[opal umbra]

seethrough keycaps arent really my thing tbh

[kind helm]

i need a black tint and gold label variant

with the fr4 plate would be so sexy

[opal umbra]

ive been thinking about using an fr4 plate or pc plate on my new board

idk what to choose between the 2 tho

[kind helm]

fr4 maybe more your type based on the ones you show

[opal umbra]

Yeah maybe I should switch it up

I already have a board with pc plate

[kind helm]

@calm pulsar still foamless in that latest sound test?

[calm pulsar]

which one?

[kind helm]

^

thockson's board got me interested in trying stiff plate with foam

[calm pulsar]

oh this one is my frankenswitch (but with gateron stem) in a freebird60 and fr4 plate, friction mounted

its an older build

and it had foams in it

poron for plate and either silicon or foam for the case

[opal umbra]

Oh yeah ima try my new board with no foams also

[kind helm]

oh wait yea i heard this one before from 10/23

no foam is W to me.

[calm pulsar]

same

[opal umbra]

See how nice it can sound

Cause my tofus have foam

[kind helm]

after trying it i really think if using a premium case, no foam is a must try

with foam a lot of stuff sound similar

[opal umbra]

Yeah foamed up boards all have a similar sound

I feel like I might have to use a little bit of foam

Cause the pcb on the board is gonna have flex cuts

Idk we will see when I build it

[kind helm]

TRY IT

cause salvation has flex cut pcb as well and i think pretty much no one runs it with foam

[opal umbra]

I’m gonna try it first with no foam or tape

If I don’t like it I will tape up the flex cuts

Foam is the last resort

[vague stag]

any tips for creating a creamy sounding keeb? thinking of using the following:

• Gateron milky yellow pro (lubed)
• FR4 plate
• case foam, pcb foam and switch plade foam (probalby all poron)
• gasket mounted keeb (thinking of buying an mode envoy)

[kind helm]

creamy... foams... once you stuff all the foam in there, your nice mode envoy would sound like any budget alu board i think

[vague stag]

god damn it

just have to try I guess

[kind helm]

maybe oil kings with plate foam

https://youtu.be/Nl2Oj7Y36tI?feature=shared&t=908

taeha the goat did 4 sound tests. 2 no foam 2 with only plate foam

do you see

[vague stag]

will look at it

thx!

[crimson sky]

taeha also edits his soundtests

[kind helm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TewuwMsoZ9s

[kind helm]

didn't know about that, but what did he do? reduce hollowness of the recording or something to make the cases sound nicer?

[crimson sky]

afaik most of his sound tests are edited but what he does exactly depends on the specific one

[kind helm]

whats the point? to drive up the sell of cases somehow?

[crimson sky]

to make it "more accurate"

[left depot]

[kind helm]

ah yes fellow nicepbt enjoyer

[calm pulsar]

yeah I notice that sometimes sound tests sound different from how they appear to me irl, so if taeha edits to make it similar to how he perceives it then its good

[kind helm]

that actually kinda make sense

[crimson sky]

will still sound different

[kind helm]

but its kinda fcked if the whole purposea portion of of the purpose of sound tests is to help users compare

[crimson sky]

I mean step 1 would be to even try to make the recording accurate

instead of editing it afterwards

[kind helm]

who do you think is "good" nowadays

just curious :3

[crimson sky]

blacksimon has a solid setup

[kind helm]

i go to keybored for KNOWLEDGE, and glarses for laugh, but honestly i don't actively follow anyone else

[crimson sky]

but even he says that they are not really representative outside of comparing them to each other

[kind helm]

i think if the same setup is maintained, its meaningful to compare between sound tests made by the same channel

but yea between channels its not really meaning

[jade storm]

How can one make a sound test sound as accurate as possible? How many factors are there? Recording mic, room acoustics, compression, headphones, is it even possible?

[crimson sky]

it's not possible

you also have to add table + deskmats

distance and direction between mic and keyboard

how the mic is mounted

[kind helm]

found a somewhat frustrating thing about using wooting60he with salvation60 case. If the screws to the pcb are done lightly to avoid damaging the pcb, when plugging in the cable, the screw on the left side may loosen, causing the pcb to slide away from the center of the case. I can hold down the keys on the keyboard to make sure that the screw doesn't get loosen when plugging the cable, but the initial calibration of the switch would cause the keys to be "broken" for a brief moment. Not sure how the calibration works, but I did have one time when a key stopped working. Thought I broke the pcb during modding.

i already have small marks on the pcb from doing the screws too tightly. I brought a electric screw driver just to make sure my precious pcb is well taken care off. Since I am not sure how the calibration works, currently if i want to switch keyboard, I just make sure to lift off the key press as soon as possible after the usb is plugged in.

actually... now i think about it, since screwing the pcb in to the case doesn't change the travel of the switch, i should just plug in the usb before doing that particular screw.

[austere creek]

all screw holes have a grounding pad where the head is plus some spare area to be safe

[kind helm]

thanks!

[austere creek]

so if the solder resist under the screwhead gets worn its not the end of the world and if anything just grounds it better

[stray tiger]

My typical rule of thumb (no pun intended) is to finger tighten and then give it one extra half turn

[umbral ridge]

whats better buy new stabs and do gummy oring mount or burger

[stray tiger]

There is no better, only preference

[tulip rapids]

all the parts have been delivered its time to mod

https://tenor.com/view/evil-laugh-gif-25608698

[tulip rapids]

DONT YOU DARE PUT THAT EVIL ON ME SPOOK😭

[umbral ridge]

what stabs do I need to get for graveshift gummy oring? or do the default from the module work fine?

[tulip rapids]

you'll be the first one to get my keyboard video

[umbral ridge]

nvm just read old messages
small graveshift for screw in stabs and medium for clip in stabs

[polar girder]

Man I was flicking he nylon, PP and aluminum plate last night and PP had the lowest sound so I just left it in

Buddy wanted to play Warzone and I wa gonna swap stabs and try diff plates but I just put it back together and played some games instead lol

I feel like the BK switches just have too much noise so idgaf that much

Was gonna force break too but kind of forgot about it and realized I need electrical tape

Need a better black switch lol

[fluid ravine]

Gl man

[tulip rapids]

ty

[pulsar schooner]

geon Raw He and BK hybrid. This is the way if you want the full range of motion the BK’s have

[marsh saffron]

Is this basically open bottom box stem raws

[untold wigeon]

Just ordered these, their pretty good right?

[winter moss]

they are indeed very nice

[untold wigeon]

Okie dokie

And 90 is the right choice right?

For the 80he

[winter moss]

probably

nah jk its definitely enough

[chilly mural]

Thank you for your support to the Church of Geon. 90 is the right choice for any 80He layout since you'll have ~4-6 spares

[untold wigeon]

You had me worried there 😅

[polar girder]

You like?

Which spring?

[tropic urchin]

You’ll have some extras, but can’t hurt to have backups 🙂

[untold wigeon]

Makes sense

[pulsar schooner]

Ye, and I popped in 80g springs

[pulsar schooner]

Yep

[tropic urchin]

Oreo box stems look like sander’s new cereal 👀

[pulsar schooner]

They are great. Slight wobble with no pressure applied to it, but once you have started the down stroke travel zero wobble

It’s great

[knotty iron]

very good!

[polar girder]

For cerakeys or what

[knotty iron]

and you still have the Raw HE RGB benefits

[polar girder]

Fk RGB

[pulsar schooner]

Because

[pulsar schooner]

Yuppp

[knotty iron]

subjective

[fallen echo]

looks like my jade gaming will come in tomorrow. guess I'll spend the day relubing xD

[knotty iron]

jade gaming switches should be smooth

do they have long springs

[tropic urchin]

@knotty iron kinda looks like the geon spring size

[young lantern]

is there a sound test of og jades pc plate and silicone pad? stock case if possible

[viscid gulch]

yes hahaha read that wrong also

though we meant the boron vs the silicone pad

time to get some sleep

[tulip rapids]

to all the people who recommended me geon raws

god bless your soul

https://tenor.com/view/top-gun-top-gun-maverick-salute-tom-cruise-military-gif-26899454

everytime i type with these switches its like i playing a song with no end

[sweet oak]

Did you buy from kbdfans goku?

[tulip rapids]

YES WITH THE WEIGHT

[sweet oak]

I might get 90, or more for both my 80 and 60

[tulip rapids]

ALL MY LORDDDDDDDD

https://tenor.com/view/ksi-float-rising-olajide-olatunji-gif-26426352

geon raw you have my soul

[tulip rapids]

i'll make a video in a bit with my new mod

[viscid gulch]

What switches did you go from?

[tulip rapids]

lekkers l60 v1

[viscid gulch]

Holy hell

[tulip rapids]

they were nice switches but geon raw

[viscid gulch]

That is an upgrade and a half

[tulip rapids]

feels like this

[sweet oak]

Quite the upgrade

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/piano-piano-on-fire-man-playing-piano-fire-gif-18619744

[viscid gulch]

I mean lekker 1's isin't a good sounding switch at all haha

Bet the difference is huge

[tulip rapids]

shit i might take this 60he+ every i go and just press on the keys like its a fidget spinner xD

[viscid gulch]

I tried lekker 60v1's and swore if i ever get a wooting keyboard i would go all out because i did not like those switches what so ever xd

[tulip rapids]

i am not worthy of these switches

[viscid gulch]

Thinking about upgrading from jades to geon raw he but my wallet is looking abit empty 😒

[sweet oak]

Was thinking of getting my raws from the kbdfans ali

[knotty iron]

me and my 180 raw he switches lol

[tulip rapids]

@fallen echo @calm pulsar i pledge my life to geon raw switches. Ty fellow comrades for this advice

[sweet oak]

180 extras?

[knotty iron]

did I help

[tulip rapids]

probably did so ty

i pledge my life to you geon raw

[knotty iron]

which switches are you buying

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/jon-snow-take-a-knee-got-kit-harington-bow-down-gif-9470652

[knotty iron]

geon so real

[sweet oak]

Im looking at the 60gs since i like the weight of l60s

[knotty iron]

oh nice

I got the 50g

[tulip rapids]

i got 40g since 50g was sold out and i bought it from kbfans website

[sweet oak]

I use v2 l45s on my 60 for school stuff, mainly cuz i wanted to not have them be 1.5s

[tulip rapids]

i must disappear now

[knotty iron]

noooooo

https://tenor.com/view/pppoof-gif-18346599

[worthy spindle]

Who wanna buy my jades for cheap

[knotty iron]

i have 90 of them already and they arent being used lol

[young lantern]

it would be nice if there was a channel for selling/trading actually

i have brand new black knights i have laying around

[fallen echo]

pretty sure I heard that was axed coz people couldnt stay profesh about selling

[tropic urchin]

could try selling on r/mechmarket maybe

[young lantern]

thats interesting

[young lantern]

this is the way indeed

[tropic urchin]

lots of really cool sellers on mechmarket, they got like the entire GMK catalogue and shit is always popping over there

[young lantern]

yup lots of steals but they always sell very quick

lots of brand new/lightly used sets and boards for under retail

[tropic urchin]

I was able to get my Lazurite set for $210 which was like 20-30 below the actual original GB price which was lit af

for pretty much everything

fully sealed too

[young lantern]

thats amazing

another place people sleep on is ebay

e white salvation unavailable everywhere and i managed to snag a brand new one off ebay for 250

[vestal drift]

Hey has anyone changed the switches on the 80he? If so I'd like to hear how the experience was or what was the level of difficulty. I'm thinking of changing the stock ones that came with my 80he.

I meant the stabilizers not switches my bad

[tulip rapids]

@robust siren

[robust siren]

?

noice

[tulip rapids]

[tulip rapids]

i didnt mean to delete alright

😭

[robust siren]

lol

looks good

[robust siren]

where the sound test at though

[untold wigeon]

Hey y'all, do the keycaps I select affect the way RGB will shine?

I got geon raw switches for the 80he

And I'm just wondering if the keycaps affect RGB in anyway, so that I can keep it in mind when shopping

[uneven cradle]

i think you mean switches but yes they will, geon raw hes are pretty decent for rgb though

[untold wigeon]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

Gotcha

But do keycaps affect it at all?

[uneven cradle]

yes also

if you want shine through lettering then you need to get shine through keycaps, but there are also things like pudding keycaps or the xray keycaps which will emphasize the rgb more

[kind helm]

xray looks nice. the letters look like they are flowing on top of the cap

[opal umbra]

polychroma keycaps arent my thing tbh

[untold wigeon]

how different does a thin cheap plastic case compare to a standard aluminium case if i put alot of foam in the case and pcb

in terms of sound, feel etc

[kind helm]

feel depends more on the mounting

but i think plastic case would still sound deeper

[untold wigeon]

is that good or bad

[marsh saffron]

Very much so

[marsh saffron]

What I prefer is better than what you prefer 😎

[kind helm]

probably

[untold wigeon]

oke

what about the plate

should i pick a certain material for plastic case

or is it all the same

[kind helm]

its not

denser material has higher pitch

[untold wigeon]

oh

high pitch in a plastic case would sound weird right

[marsh saffron]

I use PC plate

Haven't messed with anything else aside the stock steel plate

[untold wigeon]

ty

acrylic is not on it

is says 1.18 according to google

[kind helm]

probably around POM and PC

yea

[untold wigeon]

oke

is pcb foam any good

at making things sound better

[kind helm]

the poron and silicone foam filter out sound slightly differently. poron would cause the board to produce slightly deeper sound compare to silicone, I think.

Foam is not a must. If the case is well-designed, foam may actually remove some characteristics special to the case.

[untold wigeon]

ic

oki

[zenith roost]

is the tape mod worth it for 80he

[untold wigeon]

@polar girder
Vaxee Ec1
Or
Zowie Za13Dw?

[inland quail]

60he with Geon Raw HE switches and SA keycaps

[polar girder]

no clue lol

i never really followed either of those brands and i also haven't paid attention in a while tbhg

[tulip rapids]

what is this timing

Yeah true but look at the shape of the Zowie. It’s crazy

Big hump

[polar girder]

oh i was looking at vaxee e1

but yeah zowie looks sweet

probably the one i would get

question is whether it's just rebranded ttc magnetos

[chilly mural]

It'll be funny if it's

[cold bloom]

LOL prob is

[calm pulsar]

bro at this point I'll just probably get a Venom MX 60% pcb just to finally feel something new 😄

all these new HE switches arent really bringing anything new

[kind helm]

what are the new stuff in switches? i always thought a lot of it is just material and build quality and lube quality that type of things. are people doing things that are like structurally different(open bottom switch, long spring, double stage spring for example)

[little glen]

Ball bearings in switch

[kind helm]

daaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmn

2 USD per switch

[cold bloom]

That's what I did with my salvation and ended up buying 2 more mx keyboards since

It's so fun buying like 30$ sets of hmx or keygeek switches to try out too

I got a set of the new BSUN and unikeys switches coming this week hopefully

the udon linears

https://unikeyboards.com/products/unikeys-x-bsun-udon-linear-switch-factory-lubed-10pcs

like mx switches are using such cool materials, this has a Y3X stem which is new and really nice, fiberglass infused housings, etc

[kind helm]

hopefully he will catch up fast, especially they can just copy

[cold bloom]

I hope so too

geon is working on some cool new box stem HE switches

he showed them on a YT stream a little while ago

[kind helm]

got a link kind sir ?

[cold bloom]

one sec

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SENwDP83lQg&t=1015s

[kind helm]

\

[cold bloom]

yee

[kind helm]

[cold bloom]

yeah they seem kinda interesting

have to use the subtitles obv but it sounds like he's making some adjustments

[kind helm]

i no speak kr, i can't tell if the 2 at the bottom are jade and knight

[cold bloom]

I think jade pro at the bottom

and clear are jade max

[gaunt plume]

I can't wait to get my hands on Silent Jade

[cold bloom]

the purple one is the silent jade

not sure what the top 2 are

[kind helm]

silent jade?!

[calm pulsar]

yeah there's so many choices in MX world

[cold bloom]

almost too many now a days

[chilly mural]

ayy, yakult flavored

[cold bloom]

Is that shit good? It looks unreal

[calm pulsar]

tbh it's dumb that they called it jade cause they don't have the signature clack bottom out, it's an open bottom switch lmao

[gaunt plume]

The top two are LowProfile Jade, LowProfile Jade Pro

[chilly mural]

Yes, I like to drink it once in a while

[cold bloom]

nice

[kind helm]

ngl i prefer open bottom he switch more

[still bolt]

Are these switches good?

[kind helm]

if i put the switch close to my ear, i can kinda hear the sound thats like air squeezing out with close bottom

[kind helm]

no

[still bolt]

How come?

[calm pulsar]

didnt you just say you prefer open bottoms 😄

[kind helm]

NOT THESE

[still bolt]

Is there any reason why it’s not good

?

For gaming

[kind helm]

for GAMING anything is fine

[still bolt]

I don’t like heavy switches so a friend recommended this

[kind helm]

magneto apparently would be the best for gaming though

at least for now

but they are hella expensive

[calm pulsar]

I was thinking to try out Geon Raptor Extreme Gaming 😄
sounds funny but they are made by HMX and seem kinda nice, at least in sound tests
they have 3mm travel and faster actuation than usual MX too

[calm pulsar]

you can just buy lighter springs instead of a whole new switch

unless you have older lekkers

[kind helm]

geon pingless spring is the only option right now if you just want new springs and you don't wanna use aliexpress

i think

[little glen]

Wooting sells springs too

[kind helm]

oh

https://wooting.io/product/lekker-spring-packs?Weight=Linear35\

oh yea

[chilly mural]

umu, can be very light

[kind helm]

LINEAR 100

SUPER RAW IS POSSIBLE

[calm pulsar]

I still have a pack of wooting 100g springs that I never used

[kind helm]

sound test between regular 40-60g raw to 100g SUPER RAW ?

see how spring force affect sound

[quasi hinge]

Get Geon Raws

you can choose a lighter force

[calm pulsar]

these springs are probably noisy as hell

[quasi hinge]

best he swtich out rn imo

[calm pulsar]

a lot of material

[quasi hinge]

https://geon.works/products/geon-raw-he-switch

[kind helm]

there are people on bilibili who have tested some switches and found ttc magneto are better for gaming

but raw was not tested

[quasi hinge]

maybe for a reason....

[kind helm]

raw is not popular in cn

[calm pulsar]

what was so good in them for gaming?

[quasi hinge]

so

[little glen]

"Best for gaming" by unknown metrics

[kind helm]

dk, but hold on hopefully i can find the vid

[calm pulsar]

damn HE switch market is such bs I can't

[quasi hinge]

maybe they are just trying to sell their switches or sponsor

[kind helm]

they tested with machine to see how long you actually need to lift off the switch before the actual "release" on PC happens

[quasi hinge]

raw is clear value winner and good overall

[fallen echo]

they likely measured some arbitrary differences and are hyperbolic about the impact that has on that one game most people dont even care about.

[quasi hinge]

but not the raws...

[kind helm]

thats true

[calm pulsar]

what was the keyboard tho?

wooting?

[kind helm]

yea

which was surprising to me

[little glen]

That‘s like, entirely a software thing and depends on the keyboard and firmware version

And calibration

[errant meadow]

What foam material name is in the wooting 60he? Inside the default plastic case one?

[little glen]

And lots of other things

[kind helm]

yea in that vid the calibration is kinda questionable

since hes putting different switches on the same board

[quasi hinge]

I think they are just trying to sell their switches or sponsor sell

[fallen echo]

EPDM foam

[quasi hinge]

can you even say how they are better for gaming lol

[kind helm]

i am not sure if the wooting's auto calibration would look at the whole board or particular switches

[still bolt]

Thx i get these do i buy 70 switches because i got the wootting 60 he

[kind helm]

the vid shows a difference in lift off distance even with the same setting

[calm pulsar]

where you're from? could be better to get from Divinikey if you're from US

[quasi hinge]

Good point

[still bolt]

Im from New Jersey

[little glen]

Depending on where you live the shipping from geon can be quite expensive but there are some other sellers that might end up cheaper for you

[errant meadow]

Thank u sir

[calm pulsar]

compare shipping prices with the same switch from Divinikey

[still bolt]

Ok they both the same

?

[quasi hinge]

Yes this

[quasi hinge]

Yes

Just local seller for you

[still bolt]

Ok thank you guys I really appreciate it

[calm pulsar]

you need over 61 switches, but get some extras just in case
divinikey sells in packs so there will be extras anyways

[kind helm]

https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1zH1zYcEHN/?spm_id_from=333.337.search-card.all.click

this honestly is more of a comparison between stock lekker with magneto

[quasi hinge]

If you believe this I have a warehouse of copper to sell you in nanjing

[calm pulsar]

how much

[quasi hinge]

super cheap, 50% down and never see me again

[fallen echo]

what grade is the copper?

[quasi hinge]

whatever grade you need

[calm pulsar]

okay but there's a $1000 processing fee which I have to pay, say you help me out with that upfront

[kind helm]

i think the "guess" at least is maybe due to the box stem

[quasi hinge]

excuse me, that is not how these scams work

[kind helm]

assuming the vid is not fake that is

[quasi hinge]

you are the 'scammee'

[fallen echo]

I take C10200 a warehouse full. if you could grind it, that would be appreciated.

[kind helm]

it can be as you mentioned

[calm pulsar]

where I live there aren't any google gift cards being sold btw

[little glen]

Dont sell subpar copper or you will get a clay tablet complaint that will be unearthed thousands of years later

[quasi hinge]

already ground, pls deposit 50% to BVI bank # then after clearing you will receive a vague call about production issues

[fallen echo]

I like where this is going. Will we end up in a protracted legal battle where you are represented by a cocker spaniel in a suit?

[quasi hinge]

numbered company, money moved dead end

im afraid this ends with me on the beach mr bond

[still bolt]

I also got another question where do you guys get Keycaps from that looks nice

?

[fallen echo]

booooring. you have to give me at least some unusual form of entertainment.

[quasi hinge]

I have a paiza, none shall pass

[kind helm]

i mean, i never said raw is a bad choice, just based on the vid i saw on magneto that seems to be what people are getting for "gaming" specifically. but the advantage you get with that, assuming if it even exists, is not noticeable in practice

[fallen echo]

GMK, PBTfans, aliexpress

[quasi hinge]

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

[little glen]

Osume

[calm pulsar]

keep in mind "gmkkeycaps" and "gmkkeycap" websites sell fake gmk keycaps

[still bolt]

Is there a difference between fake GMK and Real GMk?

[still bolt]

Thx

[quasi hinge]

depends who responds lol

[kind helm]

GMK to PBTfans then TO ALIEXPRESS?

ae has some good shit but also a s44t ton of trash

[quasi hinge]

he watched a vague video in chinese about AE and its the best for gaming

[kind helm]

hey man its just something to consider, its better than saying just to get raw :V

[quasi hinge]

no

it is better to get the Rws

haha

[calm pulsar]

I mean the video is about the supposed deadzone, but I'm still not sure how a switch is able to fix it if it should be on the pcb's end

[quasi hinge]

Fair

[kind helm]

same which is why i dont believe that 100 either

[quasi hinge]

let me restate

[chilly mural]

Prefence is king

[kind helm]

like there is nothing in the switch is supposed to make it better

[quasi hinge]

There is an overwhelming amount of enthusiasts that prefer the Geon Raws

[calm pulsar]

ngl I might prefer jade pros now over raws, but purely in sound, the tolerances are still a bit better on raws

[kind helm]

you just got bored

comon now

[quasi hinge]

sound sure

[kind helm]

[calm pulsar]

which is why my frankenswitch is the best switch ever, accepting contracts btw

[quasi hinge]

but performance > sound for me

[calm pulsar]

not sure how raws are any better in performance

[quasi hinge]

how much lol

[little glen]

0.3 dollar per switch final offer

[kind helm]

surely that tiny bit of wobble is gonna make you whiff

nah

[quasi hinge]

They are technically better in performance

[calm pulsar]

okay all you get is the aliexpress spring 😄

[quasi hinge]

even if small

jades are 3.5 and raws are 3.4

[kind helm]

performance is kinda bs in switch to begin with which why i kinda just went to the extreme if you wanna go with "EXTREME GAMER GEAR" type shit

[quasi hinge]

that 0.1 however small makes it faster

[calm pulsar]

testing jade maxes rn on venom software, it can measure actual distance, and there is some variance, but im getting 3.2-3.4 distances lol

[quasi hinge]

See here

[kind helm]

i dont know for sure, but maybe the quality of the magnet also possibly matters maybe the quality of that can be off

like the strength that it has

[austere creek]

its magnet strength that matters

and magnet strength isnt the same it also has a tolerance

[kind helm]

does the calibration consider the entire keyboards' values as a whole or it look into each switch?

[calm pulsar]

here are jade maxes travel distances
on raws it might be even lower
so margin of error is quite noticeable in numbers (not irl)

[quasi hinge]

raws are lower baseline

[kind helm]

analog

[calm pulsar]

that's true, but you also don't know their magnet specifications, they need to be compared as well

[near barn]

has anybody done a spring swap on the jades? might just be me but i feel like they don't feel the same in comparison to putting a spring into a lekker switchj

[kind helm]

in my really limited understand of ee, analog is way more sensitive to stuff especially you are essentially taking the current/voltage as the output

where as digital is more like a threshold

[near barn]

specifically; putting an L70 spring into jade feels way lighter than it does putting it into a V2 lekker switch

[quasi hinge]

sure but im also sure some keyboard uber nerd would have screamed from the depths of his basement already with definitive proof if there was an issue or some big diff

Geons had issues

then were fixed

no such issues for raws

[kind helm]

mx to he is a big difference. 0.1mm to 0.2mm i dont think is a big difference

[quasi hinge]

given the choice, I will go faster

[calm pulsar]

yeah it's like saying ttc magneto is the best switch for gaming

[kind helm]

i rather enjoy the fact that wooting is safer with its settings to make sure things work

[quasi hinge]

raws are simple, cheaper and easy

[kind helm]

some clones go to like 0.01 and the keyboard sometimes just go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[quasi hinge]

how can you tell if clone

[kind helm]

maybe i am just not sweaty enough

[calm pulsar]

yeah raws are a no brainer for most ppl I'd say

[kind helm]

yeee

[calm pulsar]

curious to hear that new jade like switch from geon

wiht fully closed bottom and boxed stem

[kind helm]

despite what i said about the ttc magneto( literally its just something worth look in to if they care about GAMING) i am a raw enjoyer at least for now

sticky rice is still the thing i wanna try the most, those legs might finally let HE board bounce

[calm pulsar]

I wonder if someone could make sockets similar to hotswap sockets on MX, for holding down the he switches

so you can go plateless lol

[kind helm]

yea

i want true salvation bounce

(i mean the flex cuts are not there in wooting but 1 step at a time)

i wouldve brought them if i wasn't a dumbass and brought 60module instead of 60he

[little glen]

Idk if youll ever get a true flex he board cause it needs the switches to be carefully controlled and at a set distance from the sensor (and surrounding ones too possibly)

[calm pulsar]

higher performance HE boards will probably never get flex cuts cause it reduces real estate for circuit to move around

[ruby hill]

Venom 60he on sale

[kind helm]

in my mind, just barely theoretically speaking, the leaf spring at the bottom should support the pcb enough to not go too crazy. with the sticky rice legs the switches won't go flying

[kind helm]

WHERE

[kind helm]

yea but at that point

you cant even rest your fingers on your keys i feel like

[calm pulsar]

why?

you can adjust actuation point

[kind helm]

i thought by higher performance you meant lower stable actuation point

[calm pulsar]

no I just mean higher polling rate, which I don't personally care much about tbh, but I have it on venom60he and it probably increases not just input lag, but also the snappiness of rapid trigger and stuff

and as for 0.01mm actuation point, I think its dumb 😄

[kind helm]

w take

polling i think somewhat make sense for mouse

but keyboard

nah

i don't believe that would be meaningful,

[ruby hill]

I saw it few hours ago, but now disappeared

[calm pulsar]

yeah I think so too
even on mouse going 8khz hurts cpu performance

[kind helm]

you gave me hope then you step on it

[calm pulsar]

damn venom is getting popular

[kind helm]

1000hz is 1ms if i am not a total braindead yet

[ruby hill]

It totally hidden from the store again now

[kind helm]

thats already hella low

there are more delay from pc and monitor i think

[quasi hinge]

Really?

[kind helm]

yes

[quasi hinge]

and should I just turn off 8k on the 80he

wooting ceo basically said its no diff to 1k

[kind helm]

try doing 8k polling with high dpi then try to move in kovaak

your screen is going to look like ppt

[calm pulsar]

on keyboard it is way less "used"

like on mouse it is utilized way more cause of all the minute details in movement

on keyboards it's a bit less registrations

so should be fine

[quasi hinge]

I use a modded logitech superlight V1

[calm pulsar]

ofc it also depends on the cpu

[quasi hinge]

if you have a decent cpu then no issue?

[calm pulsar]

I'd say so
I still would probably use like 2khz on mice though

[kind helm]

https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx8Pi2oJtg3VvZHGWte_96VLh_RdZIVtLs?feature=shared

[calm pulsar]

on 80he 8khz should be fine

[kind helm]

think thats is nice way to see why polling rate kinda matter

[quasi hinge]

Im happy with my modded superlight for now

if ever I upgrade then ill keep that in mind

[kind helm]

i do 8k polling on 1600dpi

[calm pulsar]

so the higher dpi the better it is to have a higher polling rate?

[kind helm]

i used to do 22000dpi with 8k polling then scale sensitivity down with rawaccel

higher dpi would utilize polling rate more

[calm pulsar]

oh I see

[kind helm]

because the polling rate is the rate of the update, dpi is like the amount of update

[quasi hinge]

Cant do the wired

[kind helm]

if you dont have the amount, there is nothing for the polling part to see

in a way

[calm pulsar]

I mean im totally fine on 400 dpi and 1khz right now
my skill is what has to be improved at this point 😄

[calm pulsar]

what do you have upgraded in it?

[kind helm]

i think its more noticeable when you do tracking type of aim

but static aim i don't feel any difference between 8k to 4k

[calm pulsar]

yeah makes sense

[quasi hinge]

Tiger Skates ICE V2 & HUANO Blue with Pink dot switches soldered

[kind helm]

putting them og keyboard modding skills to the test

W gamer

LOL

[calm pulsar]

that's cool

I already like the clicks on sora v2 over the viper v2 pro that I had, but may look into modding a mouse in the future

[quasi hinge]

I found a form factor I liked that had modifiable switches

then I researched the kind of switch I wanted for fps

and wanted the glide because stock is lame

and I have a hayate otsu - mid

then play with settings

[kind helm]

👀 do you see any noticeable difference in scores

[calm pulsar]

I have a razer strider desk mat, it's already way better for me than all the cloth pads I had before, but im scared to go for even glidier pads 😄

[quasi hinge]

It really is hard to say, ill explain

my goal was to remove latency at all points

[calm pulsar]

btw time to wash the mat cause I might get dust on the lube again when I build my frankenswitches

[quasi hinge]

Cat 6 cabling with good networking hardware

then keyboard latency

of course its undeniable that he keyboards make a big diff

[kind helm]

have you messed with the clock freq in your operating system yet?

[quasi hinge]

and then for mouse its personal

I feel like my control of gameplay is tighter and leads to better results

[kind helm]

apparently the one windows use by default may not be "perfect"

[quasi hinge]

its like fine tuning an engine

[quasi hinge]

I have a decent pc, it is undervolted currently as their are issues with this intel line

[kind helm]

not cpu, the system

[quasi hinge]

but my chip is fine, when they release the new bio, I should be able to play with the undervolting and overclocking again

[quasi hinge]

lol

[kind helm]

apparently theres a timing schedule by the system that may impact performance

[calm pulsar]

I have a 7800x3d but might upgrade to 9800x3d right away 😄
can't even really OC the x3d chips, just enable some curve optimizer and that's it

[calm pulsar]

and how do I edit that

[kind helm]

but more of a amd issue apparently

[quasi hinge]

Im so jelly

I should have gone amd

[kind helm]

https://support-valorant.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406556690963-How-to-Resolve-AMD-Machine-Performance-Issues

i saw this thing by riot

then i was like what exactly does that setting do

then i kinda went on to look at a bit

[calm pulsar]

thanks, I will look into it

yeah I need to research it too

[quasi hinge]

game specific?

[calm pulsar]

which Intel you've got?

[kind helm]

nope

[quasi hinge]

14900k

[calm pulsar]

dang I think you don't have to be jelly 😄

[kind helm]

i think there was test online that showed visible fps difference in games

[quasi hinge]

lets trade lol

[calm pulsar]

you can tune your ram and cpu though, unlike on x3d chips

like the OC benefit is way smaller for me I think

[quasi hinge]

simple

you dont need the oc

its just great

[kind helm]

OC is overrated, its free performance yes, but not like meaningful difference from my perspective

:3

maybe a L take

[calm pulsar]

I mean I personally agree cause I didnt really tinker much

just curve optimizer and some half assed ram tuning xd

and it performs great

[quasi hinge]

It can depend

[kind helm]

[quasi hinge]

my chip liked being undervolted

i have -0.0900 offset

[calm pulsar]

with x3ds you also care less about ram prices, just install something in there and it's fine 😄

[quasi hinge]

my cinebench multi was 41700

[kind helm]

i am full AMD right now i regret it

[quasi hinge]

then new bios hit because intel is crashing like boeing

[kind helm]

i wish i brought nvidia card instead

can't run ML at home

[quasi hinge]

for me best is amd cpu and nvdia gpu

[calm pulsar]

im on amd cpu nvidia gpu

[kind helm]

plus i think amd pretty much oc their stuff "stock"

[calm pulsar]

I appreciate all the nvidia features

[quasi hinge]

win

[kind helm]

my 6950xt

[quasi hinge]

same

amd is really knocking it out of the park with the cpus

but they are letting their gpus die lol

[kind helm]

i always use intel and nvidia because they are just better. then i was like, well intel and nvidia need competition and the recent amd stuff are good, maybe

it was L decision

[quasi hinge]

go amd X3d and nvida

trust me

i have a 14900k

[quasi hinge]

just look at all the issues affecting 13 and 14th gen intel

[kind helm]

actually yea intel has been rolling with the same s44t for years

[quasi hinge]

my cinebench dropped to barely 3800

[calm pulsar]

I have yet to try out star citizen on my pc, i hear x3d is good for such badly optimized games lol

[quasi hinge]

basically intel was juicing the voltage to compete

[calm pulsar]

well at least it is easier to replace gpu vendor than cpu and motherboard

[kind helm]

true

and honestly if i really want

[quasi hinge]

yes

[kind helm]

i can steal one of the 4090 in my lab and put it on my home pc

"for research purpose"

[quasi hinge]

im hanging on to my system because its the end of the line and my ddr4 is sweet

[kind helm]

[calm pulsar]

lol nice
what do you do? in the lab

[kind helm]

phd student in machine learning algorithm

[calm pulsar]

oh wow

that's super cool

[quasi hinge]

"its learning how to game sir."

[kind helm]

getting paid fucking 2k per month, making less than a dish washer while getting butt fucked by the dog shit education system

super cool

[calm pulsar]

yeah but maybe your future job is gonna be insane

[kind helm]

thats the dream

[swift steppe]

Hi guys, im new i don't have my 80HE yet i wanna know everything i can do to be ready

Is there some smart people here ?

[chilly mural]

Make AI waifu pls

Or convince them to not prune nsfw data on model since that can make its creative writing capability ass

[kind helm]

https://huggingface.co/w4r10ck/SOLAR-10.7B-Instruct-v1.0-uncensored already exists man

[swift steppe]

U can use Fooocus AI it's easy asf

[kind helm]

the big companies just don't let you run them

[calm pulsar]

btw @kind helm here is probably the best open bottom switch out there

[chilly mural]

Small, plus there's better option like Mistral nemo already

[kind helm]

i just go to huggingface and type "censored" for that one

xD

[chilly mural]

Plus very old

[chilly mural]

Lmao~

[kind helm]

there are a bunch of them

[chilly mural]

Ehh, wouldn't count on that

most good model doesn't have that in their name

I meant to say, 'future' model, since future model might include more stuff that makes the model better, but might also be filled with stuff that's bad for creative writing.

Or not having one at all.

[kind helm]

idk not my focus yet but i remember seeing it when i was on the site

[kind helm]

whats the top

[calm pulsar]

geon raw he

[kind helm]

i assume thats like your franken

the top housing

[calm pulsar]

that's black knight x geon raw he

BK bottom and stem and raw upper

[kind helm]

black and raw

I thought you would say you bought venom60he but that's also cool

xd

Sleep well

drink well

and dream well

[paper bloom]

im boutta do that and get a gold tmr

LOL

3pm xd

[kind helm]

lack of better word, sounds tight

[tropic urchin]

I just woke up and it’s 6 AM, gotta love timezones

[calm pulsar]

yeah its a clean open bottom switch, but I never tried it

@tawdry tree do you know if anyone ever did a sound test with monochromes?

[tropic urchin]

Tomorrow is the day to see if I get swindled on non gold stab wires

[calm pulsar]

thank you kind sir

[ruby hill]

Disappear again

[calm pulsar]

very quiet, which is nice for those who want it

[calm pulsar]

hmm for now seems to be present on smartstore

[ruby hill]

My bad, it’s true

[covert vigil]

Why is raw he better than ordinary jade?

[kind helm]

see if this site works now

that is exactly how much a "somewhat special" pcb should cost

[ruby hill]

Some test shows raw he stability better than normal jade

[kind helm]

just in terms of wobble it would make sense for raw to be more stable since the housing is tighter

[tropic urchin]

Cheaper, cheaper, better tolerances, cheaper

[calm pulsar]

tolerances are better yeah

[tropic urchin]

RAW/Jade pros are prob the only ones worth considering if you’re after the Jade sound profile

[chilly mural]

Insane

[calm pulsar]

keep in mind you also need a plate for it

they are sold on there too

[stark osprey]

Yea I do like the sound profile, but more importantly, it does get stability improvements over stock Raws. I legitimately don't even miss typing on mx keyboards anymore.

[ruby hill]

Damn, I saw venom65he in geonworks discord

[kind helm]

wait a min

only plates for frog mini

[calm pulsar]

in the listing you can choose gh60 type of plate

and then 6.25u or 7u depending on which pcb you're getting

[little glen]

I‘m guessing this is why the 60 is on sale

[kind helm]

can't find one

i went to look at the plate options under pcb, and then went to look under venom

[calm pulsar]

oh the gh60 plates seem to be out of stock

[kind helm]

[calm pulsar]

magnetic who? 😄

[little glen]

How are they coming out with so many switches all the time

[calm pulsar]

these have been known for quite a while

[chilly mural]

Genty~

[kind helm]

can confirm fooocus is not censored if you know what i mean

LMAO

[tawdry tree]

not gentle at all

[tropic urchin]

The enlightenment have been known for a hot sec, but the key to mass releasing 8 new switches is to have the most recent be a recolor box stem

[kind helm]

cant send the result here though

[ruby hill]

Anyone waiting for the owlab x wooting gh60 ?

[kind helm]

some of the gifs look crazy... maybe future games can directly run on ai

maybe like 5 to 10 years if the memory bottleneck actually practically get solved

[kind helm]

can't wait for the review online to show how they actually silence the switch

open bottom

[tawdry tree]

closed bottom silent would be crazy

😂😂

[tawdry tree]

not silent at all

[kind helm]

would be more mushy than my overlubed spacebar

LOL

[tawdry tree]

unless the units people got were not yet the final thing

[tawdry tree]

could be, their Zero Degrees aren’t mushy but also not silent at all

not even close

[kind helm]

that looks like a small piece of silicone pad

[tawdry tree]

yeah

it’s dual rail anyway so pretty useless

[kind helm]

maybe the marketing people were like "we cant call these dampen switches"

[calm pulsar]

wait its dual rail???

💀

[tawdry tree]

nah, gotta get that Silent buzzword in there somewhere

[tawdry tree]

yeah sadly, and not like the Maxes where top housing is compatible with KS-20 series bottoms

[calm pulsar]

maybe pom stem is less sticky but still yikes

[kind helm]

[calm pulsar]

thank god cause my frankenswitch is always interrupting me

[tropic urchin]

I thought the Jade gaming was supposed to be immersive /s

[tropic urchin]

I gave them a pass for hifi sound but this is too far 😭😭

[kind helm]

immerse heart and soul what does that even mean 😦

[tropic urchin]

No way that’s real

[calm pulsar]

lmao

[tropic urchin]

Also wtf is their obsession with dual rail

[calm pulsar]

im listening to them on senheiser 560s, the sound is very hifi and also Silent and Beauty

[kind helm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-pKEhkaIcY sound for the switch at around 5:30

[tropic urchin]

I like the jades but fuck does Gateron make it impossible to support them
