Not entirely. When I started using mech boards it was to have the switch activate at or near the tactile bump, which was far more informative than membrane boards.

I never put o rings on switches before, but if you're using tactile switches you'd still get activation at the bump, but it would quiet the bottom out and reduce force.

lmao

little glen
#

i think main thing you'll hear is my bad typing skills and stabilisers kekw

cyan lark
#

Especially with a tactile bump I find myself bottoming out far less than without them on a linear, since the activation point can't be detected by touch, other than vague feel of how far down you've depressed the key.

Hi guys! I have two questions:

  1. I have hard time deciding which plate should I get - FR4 or POM. What you guys think about both of these? Cannot go wrong with the FR4, right?
  2. Anyone tested pingless springs for geon raws? Should I bag lube them before switching stock ones, or just put like it is out of the box?
little glen
#

i think people are liking FR4

#

as for the pingless springs, the point of them is that you dont need to bag lube them but i think people do it regardless kekw

tranquil lake
#

hah ok, perfect

kind helm
#

i think its a good idea to lube it regardless

tranquil lake
#

so overall, they should be better than stock ones, even without lubing them?

#

i ordered 40 and 50g ones

kind helm
#

raw's stock spring is meh, but you can fix them with bag lubing

#

without getting new spring

little glen
#

i'm gonna try them out unlubed on my venom once all that stuff gets here

tranquil lake
little glen
#

if i dont like it i'll lube em up for my 80he

tranquil lake
little glen
#

when geon starts shipping stuff out

#

so itll be after the third

tranquil lake
#

oh ok

kind helm
little glen
#

idk how fast shipping is from korea

kind helm
#

plate question be hard, cause its preference, but alu subjectively fucks for the 2 boards i tried

tranquil lake
#

I went with FR4 plate

kind helm
#

fr4 is kinda muted in my experience but it would probably feel more harsh if you are coming from a softer plate material

tranquil lake
#

im switching from stock 80he one

#

idk what material is it

#

xD

kind helm
#

i think its pc

little glen
#

stock 80he is PC yeah

kind helm
tranquil lake
#

@calm pulsar im sorry to bother you, but you've tried pingless springs? What is ur opinion about them out of the box? Are they worth time spending on it?

little glen
#

i have an alu plate coming with my venom

kind helm
# kind helm

SwitchyConfused its comparative so maybe its a be harder to like get an idea but i think the source is a bit more accurate compare to just judging a plate based on its density.

little glen
#

i think i want to try FR4 on my 80he

tranquil lake
#

80he

kind helm
#

xD

I am using a CF plate on my 80HE

i like that, what plate is that?

Got it off ali express recommended by sno

whole pcb+plate assembly is stock

i think so

tranquil lake

but thanks for opinion

little glen
#

also GMK caps

quasi hinge
little glen
#

no pbt or anything

#

✌️

tranquil lake
#

yeah

#

FR4 is balanced pick i think

little glen
#

and also a foamless no polyfill in gt80

kind helm
little glen
#

do keep in mind these were recorded separately on different days etc etc etc

kind helm
#

SwitchyLaser dc is almost goated, almost

little glen
#

so dont take these recordings as super objective

#

ngl i might have to take out some poly fill cause it may get a little full down there

I dont know the color schemes, I originally had this dormant discord account then revived it to complain about the mykeyclub rug lol

Then I found a home here on the wooting discord WootingFlag

#

its good. not my thing personally but i respect itsmile

#

i will do foamless alu plate venom build soon

kind helm

#

why this two are better than normal jades?

kind helm
#

venom be warm too, and i do no foam

#

holy60 is 10/10 air cool

little glen
#

say what you want, holy60 looks cool as FUCK

little glen
kind helm
#

looks cool af, but probably collect dust fast af, and spacebar absolute ass cheek

little glen
#

yep hahahahaha

#

i kinda just wanna get some but i probably shouldnt

#

i already spent more than i meant to this month due to all the promotions happening

kind helm
#

I love that you ignore ttc

little glen
#

and i still need to buy a GPU next month

#

look man, if i say jade pro and raw he someone is gonna come and say "TTC is better" or some bs and i dont want to deal with that when i know noone that's a first timer will ever want to spend that kinda money on switches they dont even know they will like

little glen
#

like yeah, TTC is probably better a lot of the time but also like twice the price or something stupid like that

reef oar
#

jade pro is better

little glen
#

yeah yeah jade max best ks20 best

kind helm
little glen
kind helm
#

because its the cheapest one out of the good ones

#

unless they have something specific they are looking for

little glen
#

maybe not the best but definitely like top 3 and also super cheap in comparison

cyan lark
#

I don't think many of them are actually objectively better. I will say, though, that raws are built like ocean garbage compared to most if not all their competitors.

#

An oft omitted point on here that I think is worth mentioning

little glen
#

i havent opened mine up or taken em off my plate yet so i have no way of knowing

kind helm
quasi hinge
#

Ocean garbage lol

#

salv?

#

or leggera?

little glen
#

salv

#

i got the rng salv

#

maybe leggera later on but thats not even out is it

kind helm
#

yea how was it actually, i left the dc for a week to visit my friends

little glen
#

pretty good

kind helm
#

what color you got

little glen
#

a few blemishes on the inside nothing on the outside

#

blue color

#

it came with the travel case and plate and all too

#

not bad overall

kind helm
#

still hurts my soul knowing that i paid 200 extra

#

WHO CARES ABOUT BLEMISHES ON THE INSIDE

little glen
#

its a little fucked up on some spots but not so bad

#

yeah i am very happy i got it for that price

#

really good value

high sphinx
#

@kind helm for the yikb stabs do u only use krytox 205g0?

kind helm
#

alu maybe a bit loud ngl if you do salv with it

#

i learned to adapt the volume but people be different

little glen

just reposting the salv pictures here rq

also do u use the pads that come with it or u just dont care and let them bang against the pcb ?

little glen
#

cant wait to lube my knight v2s, fuck it up in some way and use those learnings on my second set of them

kind helm
#

the pad is meant to make it more quiet

little glen
#

tape mod both sides of your pcb pepeLa

high sphinx
kind helm
#

you do your thing, i actually considered using the pad but i was too lazy to try later on

kind helm
# high sphinx aight do u also have the knight v2 i kinda wanna know how they compare

Stabilizers can arguably make or break a keyboard and you want to know what the best ones are. I mean, who wouldn’t want the best for their keyboard, right? The problem is that there are so many different stabilizers to choose from. How do you choose the best ones? Well, let me give you my personal tier list of what I think the best stabilizers ...

kind helm
#

i never brought a set of knight since i have og60 wooting and venom only, wooting one i have to use plate mount, venom i can use yikb which according to what i see is better

kind helm

what to use under stabs?

#

honestly i would just skip it if you dont care about the issue too much, it is not really a big deal with the gmk caps you have from what i heard

#

you really have to force it to happen even on like a cheaper pbt set at least in my experience

high sphinx
# kind helm yea

the geon spacers are 0.5mm so if i add that up with the 1.2 from the yikb stabs then it is 1.7 so not 1.6 like the pcb is does that matter ?

cyan lark
#

Even w/ spacers on stems w/ GMK caps I had some real issues w/ stabilized keys going catywompus. Switching to long pole in those cases immediately solved the problem 🤷

cyan lark
#

I do agree that it's a "don't try to solve the problem if it doesn't present itself" kinda thing.

tranquil lake
#

soo there might be a problem to use yikb stabs with raw he switches?

Any new keyboard cases for 60he better than the redux. Pre ordered the gmk copper set and my redux mocha won’t go with it

Hi Guys I want to modify my Wooting for the first time, and I’m thinking about getting the Lord of the Rings MT3 keycaps because I love their aesthetic. However.( i work on my MacBook) I know they’re great for typing, but are they good for gaming? Do you think this profile will be comfortable enough if I use a wrist rest, or should I save the money and go for Cherry keycaps instead? I have to be careful with the money since I have to import them, and I can’t return them if I don’t like them.

#

I still prefer jade pro spring ultimately, due to the length, and when lubed they are quiet as well, though maybe not as much as the pingless ones

tranquil lake
#

soo no need to lube those pingless?

calm pulsar

#

honestly you must as well throw a few drops on them anyway if you're already changing the springs

it actually worked im using it right now

The Raws are fairly inexpensive, but they do tend to fall apart if you're pulling them out of your case much. The Jade Pros will slightly change your RGB colors, since the top housing is green tinted.

with only one keeb you cant mod and type on discord at the same time

Yeah, any KS-20 compatible springs will work.

#

Not sure if Everglide Master/Magnetos are lighter/heavier, could go with those as well.

cyan lark
#

Are their diffusers built into the housing, or separate?

The skylines

i didnt know it was from kbd

Hey guys my wooting 60HE currently has the Lekker v1.5 in them but I was looking for a switch that would give me a more satisfying sound and definitely better feel and bottom out to it any recommendations?

autumn temple
#

How do the jade pros feel and sound compared to the Lekker?

calm pulsar
autumn temple
#

Oh that is really what I am after the feedback of the switch bottoming out

#

Cause you cant really feel the bottom out on the Lekkers

calm pulsar
autumn temple
#

Like right in the middle

#

Is that hole the reason they dont feel as good as normal switches

#

Honestly the lekkers dont even sound bad its more so feeling than sound they sound pretty marbly to be honest

calm pulsar
#

making for a weaker feel imo

autumn temple
#

Yeah totally no I agree 100%

#

Overtime I would assume that there are going to be even more options for better HE switches more variety for people

calm pulsar

And what are you using currently?

calm pulsar
calm pulsar
# autumn temple And what are you using currently?

im using a combination of different parts in my switch, but it is pretty much a gateron jade pro in terms of sound and feel
I was just invested a bit too much into switches, got a ton of them and then built a combination that I liked xd

#

so I advise on jade pros or geon raw he

autumn temple
#

Gotcha

#

Also one other thing

#

Where do you recommend I purchase them from? I am from Canada and on the Wooting website they list the Gateron Magnetic Jade Switches but not the pro version I assume that would be on the Gateron website. Also what is the difference between the jades and jade pros?

calm pulsar

what the fuck

What about in terms of sound and feeling is there a huge difference between the jades and jade pros?

calm pulsar

#

Oh okay gotcha I'm just asking all of this cause I actually just got my first wooting today the 60HE

#

What about the case does changing the case really make that much of a difference to the sound profile or are switches the most important for sound profile?

ik that to a degree it does but arent switches the most important for sound profile?>

Anyone know what the best stabs are for geon raw he?

Hello yall I had a question. I currently have the apex pro mini and the switches are light and I’m thinking about getting a wooting module and adding the gateron jade magnetic switches. For someone who mainly plays competitive games would these keycaps be good. Or would going with somthing more on the stick switch level that wooting offer better?

There isn't a "best stab" or "best switch" or what not around here, yet alone a best stabilizer for a certain switch.

# valid lark Any recommendations to get rid of the ping? 😭 spacebar sounds so buns bro

Here is how I mod my stabilizers. I get asked this a lot of my streams and honestly, I figured why not just record this so I can link this video instead of having to re-explain it every time. I hope you enjoy it. Please remember this video is only covering lubing and installing, some stabs like cherry clip-ins, you'll need to clip the bottom leg...

already fewer people are getting the latest and greatest nowadays no? nvidia played well to lean toward ai and shift the focus to like companies instead of gamers.

red dead 2 has amazing graphics and that was like 5 years ago, a 3000 series card i think can handle that game pretty easily. the new path tracing stuff is fun but i dont personally think its a huge improvement over raster stuff when you consider the trade off between quality and performance

Hi guys, very impressed by this keyboard, have been using it since beginning of last October.

I do use it with the Gateron Jades switches, which are 3.5mm. I am just thinking about to buy some silicon O-Rings to reduce a bit sound.

Has anyone used the O-rings? If yes, please recommend me the best one and the place where I may order it for my setup.

Thankful in advance!

people say orings for switches makes the keyboard mushy and shortens the travel distance

#

as much as a pain on my fingers and mind getting jade pros in the kbdfans cf plate, it was def worth it

#

there's a tech to it

#

i had to like, put the switch in on one side, and then slide it as far as i could to that side AND THEN push it down

#

otherwise the housing clips would catch on the plate and bend

#

somehow non snapped before i realised that was the problem

#

i was pressing HARD

#

they're easy to pull out though, just annoying to put in

#

i imagine otherr manufacturers don't have this problem

it it says that the O-Rings are perfect for 3.5mm gateron jades
