Oh no. The worst news @sacred elm https://www.sonyalpharumors.com/from-monday-19-september-sony-us-will-be-increasing-the-prices-of-many-cameras-and-lenses-by-up-to-33/
On Monday 19 May, Sony US will increase the prices of the following cameras, lenses and accessories. So if you find something on this list that you want to buy, you should go ahead and buy it now: Cameras and Lenses: Product name Current price New price Percentage DSCRX100M7/B (Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama) $1,499.99 $1,699.99 13.3%
Buy quick, buy it all!
Tragic
Time to invest early
Is the owlab case compatible with the 60he+ plate? I want to have some more bounce when i use it i think
Kang said like 90% compatible, so it works but not recommended.
Probably a bit tight or loose.
its aight, getting alu cases instead of zinc is nais. Looks to be better prebuilt experience than in the past
stock FR4 plate so no PC plates is big W
when will wooting sell their own plates tho š
they will for 60he
Its improved 60he, stock experience will be way better than v1 60he
alu case would mean you can get the v2 case anodized cheaply too depending on where you are
its nice refresh, but some people expected tsangan layout,db support,oring compatibility
w/e
Even with that dream shattered, there's still the dream of wooting numpad.
im getting it. whos not, its their problem you got it? @tropic urchin
at least in korea it's only like $50 or so to get a case anodized, can make the case any non light color you want for that
your what has a what now?
If Keychron does it, it would mean it'll prop not support Lekker v3
yez
yez yez wooting 60v2 is best keybored
2026 is the year of 2he refresh and he numpad
source: trust me bro
facts
no yap allowed here, benom boy š¹
Imagine 60hev2 have 0.15ms latency
I guess i'll be forced to leave like everyone else

1 safe ol reliable, 1 enthusiast fun board and mx board for office hehe
Bakka š¹
pretty soon im going to be cam
pretty soon youre going to be yesil
thinking ill go benom 7u currently, but mr arc will need to confirm for me
nah hes goated
yesil the goat
W mans
I'll prop going to put my venom on a permanent retirement when woot numpad exist
double 60he v2 is all you need
with 4 straps
numpad before new monitor would be fucking crazy
I don't have $500
Give it months, I lit just bought another rhythm game controller a few weeks ago
also like, my current monitor is very nostalgic to me, it has been with me until close to the very top.
TBH, The only time I prop experienced 120hz is on my quest 3, but minecraft is very hard to run so at best I got 80fps.
We aura farming chat?
honestly problem I see with swapping the 2.25u and 2.75u is that at least for where i press space it would cause more issues with hitting middle button instead of the space bar you want
i actually prefer it slightly further down the way it is now because it gives more room to press normal spacebar with thumb on left side
thatās the reason 2.25 is common whereas 2.75 is not. itās a balance between both thumbs.
yeah that's what i mean, but in reverse to the way you want it
Wait shot is getting above 60hz monitor?
the 2.25 split is a balance between both thumbs as you can see in the image I attached. thatās the reason why 2.25 is conventional and 2.75 is not.
i think whether you prefer the 2.75u on the right or left side will heavily depend on how much you favor using left hand thumb to press space
like for what i'm saying is i prefer 2.75u - 1.25 - 2.25 vs. your suggestion because i use more of that left side to press normal space and don't want to press the middle split space when aiming for normal space
this is very personal based on my typing style of course, but that's what i mean where i don't think it's just 'everyone prefers 2.75u more on right/left'
thatās not something you can know yet, not when you havenāt tried it. I thought the same before I tried split space but thatās not the case. So for the 2.25 split, both thumbs have space whereas with the 2.75 split only one does.
i have literally owned multiple venoms
and have tried split
2.75 split?
thatās not something Iāve ever seen before
basically the tl;dr is i've found i use more of the left side than right side of my space bar when hitting space
afaik, it doesnāt exist and thereās a reason for that.
and what i'm explaining is the 2.75u on the left cators more to not accidentally pressing the wrong split side
at least for my own typing
if iām gaming im going to be pressing the left side of space with my left thumb
Iād rather there be more space there
it's why i don't think it's going to just be 'oh everyone would prefer it on the right' or 'everyone would prefer it on the left' - a lot of gamers favor left side i think due to bad typing habits like takigi said
myself included, i have some habits with typing just due to favoring that left side from playing games
Depends on the placement really
yeah exactly
If your thumbs always at the mid of ur spacebar then yeah
yeah, thatās something very personal to you. not something that applies to anyone using their right hand as well to take advantage of split space.
Major left then go for split if ur comfortable
I mean i can double spam spacebar now and use it for gacha games that require it
no ones gonna stop me
yeah exactly, that's what i'm saying is that your analysis is very based on specifically someone who types evenly
if not just run a keycap swap and use it as a stand alone e z
so it kind of works but doesn't work depending on the person, i think you'd be surprised how many people don't have ideal typing postures
no, itās based on using one and both hands, for gaming and typing.
yeah which i'm explaining that a lot of people don't do it that way
where does a lot come from?
it's gaming typing habits from people who grew up playing cs etc
i type fast but not correctly just due to being so used to wasd positioning
I might be mistaken but I personally havenāt seen this split anywhere, on any board. who exactly is using it?
okay i think you missed the point. i'm not saying people are using this split
i'm saying people who favor left side tend to prefer more 'normal' space like the way wooting has it setup now
which is what i've found when using other split formats
it doesnāt really work to apply where your thumb is on a big spacebar and compare it to the split. that differs for everyone and itāll take time to adjust, thatās normal. people that press space near the center will have to adjust more.
thatās if itās with their right thumb.
okay well i tried to explain it's fine, you do your thing
itās fine, thereās a reason one exists and is common whereas the other isnāt.
your entire argument is based on user preference, our entire argument is based on user preference
thereās no winning here
yep exactly ^
^
Honestly it depends on typing and playstyle
i'm trying to explain the differences in user preferences and that analysing based just on one specific preference just doesn't work
I see ur point there
nobody here has used 2.75 split.
but ig different users
there's going to be some folks that prefer big 2.75u on left, some on right and it'll vary more based on their natural typing positions
2.75 offers no space at all for the right thumb (something a significant amount of people use) whereas 2.25 does for both.
People had this same argument for 80HE and 6 months later no one cares tho
Maybe this will make more sense, if I have my hand on WASD this is where I rest my thumb. If you make that shorter I'm between two keys now
yeah hopper gets it
question is, do you cater to the few or the many.
Aligner gets it. Just doesnāt want to admit it.
no idea, i do know there's a decent portion of either side though
hrm idk man, do I wanna cater to the gamers on this gaming keyboard, or the typers
read the second part of my thread if you will.
thatāll explain it.
when wasding with one hand on the mouse i'm heavily leaning towards wanting bigger space like hoppers image
you either havenāt used split space enough, or youāve never used the right spacebar.
with the release of the 60he v2 will wooting release a separate fr4 plate just like how they have separate pc plates rn?
no matter what they do, a certain amount of users will be left out
no, like i'm trying to explain to you is that a lot of people do not use right spacebar as much due to typing habits
not me this time.
lol ok
dawg you literally started an opinion based argument with no winners
They said that they want to release it, yes.
not so much opinion based, thereās preference, yeah. one offers both room whereas the other doesnāt. one exists whereas the other doesnāt. one is widely used, whereas the other isnāt.
common even.
(coming from someone who has used split space for over a year)
literally everything you just said for all 3 categories is going to be a preference
and i know you're trying to imply the specific preference that's more widely used is correct, but that's just not how preference works
and yet despite it being common you have 4 people saying that they would prefer wootingās layout
is the right spacebar supposed to be pressed with your right thumb?
all im hearing is it feels like a mistake to have done split spacebar lol
sometimes, but a lot more rarely for me because i favor left side usage
i basically don't use right side that much when gaming
doomed if you do, doomed if you donāt
yeah but i feel like id rather fight the same comments as before rather than a whole new worms of cans
With how the spacebar is currently setup, I'll perfect align with my rhythm gamer finger on keyboard.
can we do no spacebar
fair
ngl considering they have to pick between the 2, it might be
but we will see how the sales gets split
SBL
i mean i personally dont get why youd want a split spacebar so /shrug
long spacebar good, long spacebar can double as a nutella knife
thatās my point, you havenāt used split space (enough) to take advantage of it.
if it was smt they could get one board and tinker if they would like, i believe that would be the ideal
i don't think you're going to win a ton of votes for your plan by telling people who don't use split the same way as you that they are using it wrong
Also decent for butter
but rn they have to choose afaik
people will use split spacebar how they want to use it, and it's not going to be based on whether aligner approves of the way they use it
i see how it would work but id personally not lick the butter of before putting the spacebar back on the keyboard
Why would you lick butter off
good point. i lick the nutella off before putting it back on. maybe i should just leave it on the spacebar
again, one exists and the other does not. thereās a reason for that. one offers both thumbs space while the other does not. itās about ergonomics and not disregarding all people who press space with their right thumb instead.
well i tried to explain, i give up
Oor, you put it inside the spacebar to act as a dampener when it hardens
š®
so where ortholinear wooting
2028
man
actually, I wonder how long do wooting stuff actually try out the split spacebar 60he.
Maybe at least 2-4 months
surely
Wouldn't be surprised if they find no issue with it.
i cant put a number on it but its the prefered version for some
Imagine it gets tested for gaming unlike most split spacebar use cases
i could see it being heavily liked depending on the game. Like some wow pvp players would love another easy to press mod key
finding good binds in some games sucks and having that extra key is big
then thereās very few that take advantage of it and none that press space with their right thumb beforehand.
it's lit my wish for rhythm game.
brother why are you still on this
we get it, you like bigger right space
can we move on without continuing to bring it up?
It's the best all in one alternative to 80he/60he + woot numpad.
Just 60hev2 with split spacebar is perfect.
how much more expensive will split be
Im tired reading split spacebar bs. If you dont like it, others will like it. Not everyone cares about sYmMetRy
Also its always you aligner, arguing on some weird stuff
nah aligner is just saying bigger right will sell better and is more popular
Yeah the v2 looks nice
Just not for me
everyone is fighting about split spacebar this split spacebar that
i think the mistake with a lot of analysis of formats etc is it's coming from the assumptions of typing mx user usage
i dont think either would do well honestly
so its kinda pointless to me
itās nice to have the option I guess
but i have never used split before
my guess personally is that neither would sell well at first but the sales % would grow over time
was a semi big request for previous boards
for sure, itās not optional
it would be, but they have to choose afaik
so its not optiona;l
wdym by not optional?
read my thread brother
iām not reading allat
the first part only
because gamers who do get used to one extra bind will like it, so I could see for example if it's WoW gamers they see someone like chanimal use it and more people try it over time
yea i get we just have to see this in hindsight
You not convincing me that one extra key is worth the ugliness
I just want woot numpad man
two extra keys!!
If you need more keys just get 80he
thumb keys
it's something that will be a slow burn then gain more following over time i feel, especially as more influencer gamer types try it and like it
NOH, I need that extra big key for rhythm game.
its a prime location, so its worth hella lot of keys 
ah ok icic
Nah I still use wasd
Tried wasq for Fortnite a few years ago and couldnāt get used to it
Did i miss discord drama
self nerf
drama?
its just a convo abt spacebars
no drama
no mousewheel jump? that's cursed
no, I hate aligner now due to his opinion on wootingās split spacebar
in fn š
y
a lot of people talking a whole lot about something they never tried
what happened?
left click, scroll and scroll click doesnt work
š
im using the sora v2 and starting to hate it
because how quickly the battery dies
time for beast x pro

i have a superlight 2 and i love how long the battery goes for but shape is trash
ive adjusted to the shape honestly
fingertip is a slow burn i think for people who aren't natural fingertip users
missing my razer viper ultimate
it was rought at first but its fine now
based
from friends who have tried to make the swap they say it's super rough learning to fingertip aim at first
i've always been a fingertip aimer so i can't relate to the swapping pain, but they all say it's rough because you don't use fingers the same way in claw
i dont play much fps games nowdays
play rhythm game!
I do, sometimes
I can always play with another 8k player
only osu tho
what if aim is related to your body age, better get on aimlabs if you don't want to age out
U rite u rite
After that I go play piano to retire.

I need to get back into osu
dont worry, soon ill have to lock in aimlabs for 20h/day, when my glasspad arrives
I already feel how shit ill be
that was like when i changed to jade skates first time
suddenly every movement was overshot for like a week
hop on glasspad
I plan to get hana so, its not that fast
(still using g502)
should be fine
i would if it didnt sound ass ngl
sp-004 miku edition is calling my name
it feels like scraping glass
the newer glass pads are way more quiet
and it hurts my soul
like the glassworks ones
not every glasspad sounds like sp004
im used to loud noises when playing rhythm game, also I play with IEM, so glasspad is a non issue even with standard usage
glsswrks pads are quieter
still noisy but way more quiet than older glasspads like sp004
Me with sp004 
same
for me there is just something nice about a stitched fabric deskmat
and ill probably get a glasspad when i switch to a dual setup
I still canāt do static flicks on glass
Only tracking
Went up 3 ranks by switching to my artisan
looks cool
idk which to pick between that and redux for benom
not gonna wait for another leggera to restock on july
get a protaganist (extra)
up to u honestly
resin will sound very different from alu
huge bezels huh

Huge bezels are kinda cute
is it me or does the sebas case look like tofu from the top?
thicker top & down bezels rather than the sides
for a glimpse it looks like tofu from the top
people say that to a lot of expensive collectors board if it looks like that from the top
is there a travel case for the tofu 60 redux or would the wooting 60he travel case work for it?
they just say nice tofu even if they now it isntk
That should work
no there isnt
Hahahhaha
ngl, i bought the smoke with pvd black
and wk
š how u liking it
most likely i will use it on mx tho
haven't arrived
just ordered GB recently
shipping q4 2025 from geonworks iirc
icic, be sure to post a few pics
ofc
rgb would make it nice
what is the typing angle of alopow?
what do you guys think of the velocifire DT60 case. im struggling if i wanna save money and get that one or bite the bullet and get the owlabs case and return if i dont like
Not my style but I can see how some folks would like the chunky look
that would be one of the big things and also its corners apperenty they sharp like tofu 60 og
yea, not my style. but i can see the appeal
thats a retailer
looks sharp but the price difference is massive as well
ahh ok ok
hold up wait, lemme checkk

something looks weird lmao
@tawdry tree do you know any update on the hmx switch?
did desktop tribe rebrand?
I want that wooting luggage tag. Could actually use it for travels
that idk
hmm? the astrals?
it might be mikeytypes who fked up
astros*
thats y im checkking
looking at the site, only veloci pops up
idk from that one article on unikey i think there was a hmx switch in the making
i dont think that is the same one as the akko one right?
yeah those are the akko astrolinks
really?

mine shipped finally but donāt think theyāre any good
Fuck yea because it's adorable and functional
oh damn
š„
yea i think mikeytypes just assumed
I'll try to save you one sno but there's not nearly enough
Tragedy
prob yeah
They're pricy lol
do you guys like the gasket mount feel ive never had a gasket mounted board and idk if it would be good or just make gaming feel weird
hey its still better than the ow60 lol
Itās fairly stiff so itās fine for gaming
If you want it more stiff you can get a stiffer plate, which is what some of us did who prefer stiffer flex
We spent much, much more on the luggage tags than a single owlabs case
A worthy investment
Agreed
lmaooo
The Wooting branded gear I was rocking today, going around Taipei, got me recognized
That was weird but also cool
Full sized switchy cosplay
its like when people with the same car nod at eachother
I want that Switchy drip outfit so fucking bad
who in wooting would be the one wearing the cosplay š
as long as we dont see any switchy R34 š
Random buddy in a random gaming discord that obviously doesnāt really care about keyboards lol
Yeah see I can see the split space bar thing being something that gets more popular over time like that
Maybe older folks will remember the razer keyboard with thumb buttons below space
A lot of people bought those because wow pvpers were promoting that keyboard
to be clear for myself is it 3 buttons that act as space bar or 3 diff keys
haha exactly, i am actually getting it purely for the split spacebar, simply to have better accesible keys
nuphy has a board like that too iirc
It can be either, depending on how you set it up on wootility
ooooo ok
Swifty sold so many of these as the og below space button keyboard
So yeh, a lot of stuff you can do with just 2 extra key
the space bar is deff a good spot for some keybinds
i have certain actions bound to V, but in games i will hit that, and also the spacebar, so i might vault over something when i dont intent to. but now i can just bind that to the centre space bar key
Me too Mark, me too
Still need that bucket hat
random question but recenlty ive been thinking if i should upgrade my he60+ case (i have stock) but ive never felt the difference that a metal case makes and dk if its a worth upgrade
Itās up to you, itās mostly aesthetics more so than sound for most of us
it doesnt feel that different, its mostly sound. soooo yea
and yea, looks offcourse
Some cases have some mounting differences like optimum has friction fit for example
But other than that most of us do it for looks lol
you can get new 60he v2 case or optimum with friction fit pad
better sound/feel
also what is new case called?
ok thank you for the input, i think ill stay on the hunt because looks wise i havent found a case that just grabs me but sound wise i feel like he switch can only sound so good
i think yea just v2
We may have the return the church of the white zinc but in aluminium form for the v2
shouldve done this split space
this layout soooo good
what in the hell is that
mods
how do I delete someone else's messages?
more context - all switches underneath matches the colour of the respective keycaps
just asking was it mentioned if the v2 pcb will fit in 3rd party cases cause once i find the case i want for the 60he id wanna also use it for the v2
THAT DOESNT MAKE IT BETTER
yeah i saw
what the fuck
gh60 cases, yeah
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
I respect the commitment to the bit
Hell yeeee
yea, whoever made that should be commited to the insane asylum
Ergonomics yknow what I'm saying 
dont say that abt my glorious king alexotos
Type shi
shi
bettttt
oh nah, thats an alexotos build? what the hell man
Itās been awhile since weāve seen a ātype shiā, thatās how you know thockson has been busy since he busted his shoulder

look he smiling
that mean š
thats the smile of a madman
based layout.

bro wtf is this a suitcase?!
Thatās the legendary razer anansi
im coping the case just cuz of the bottom
ok thats pretty good
im also giving wooting team ideas for 65% layouts if they decide to make a 65he
oh god its back
This makes me unreasonably happy
yellow teeth ahh keycaps
LIKE THAT IS THE WORST PART OF IT?
Mustard or ketchup?"
I loveee 65% tsangan anso x iso x numpad
š„
phish pulling up with that ugly keyboard
xray š¤

@thorn zealot you gonna take that bro
i agree that colorset is not it
but the layout is sooo fine
@tropic urchin do i do it
"put the fries in the bag"
yes
i got paid more than i thought and can now justify spending 200+ on a mouse
What were your options again
i was thinking about buying takyons off him, but its the og max
that and 60v2 š¹
because i didnt think id get paid as much as i did
now the buy button is staring at me with luscious intent
Yellow Teeth can be Healthy
@marsh saffron dont forget to order finalmouse horizon gaming mousepad too
š
LOL
that needler though š«¦
wort wort wort
its gonna pair so well with my keyboard
I wish I went for solid sides too, but its fine
yeah im excited to feel it
- actually being able to claw
mini is too small for my broken ass hands now
razer ergo
is this manual for the beast x wrong?
could u just use the small dongle without cables?
yea you can use small dongle without cable but its 1khz only
oh damn that looks trippy
nice, 1k is all i need then
you have to use cable because cats have tails. You can't have a cat without a tail
both are included
yea im never using the bigger dongle lmao
if your pc is far away from mouse i dont think its a good idea to use small dongle
nah it wont be, it would be on my desk anyways
its smaller viper v3
my table is weirdly built
are you getting beastx? š
either that or the optimum to try it out
optimum mouse is absurdly overpriced imo
/ pulsar finger mouse
optimum has one flaw which is it's fit for optimums finger lengths
and he only puts the grips in exactly where his fingers grip so if your fingers aren't same as his then the grip can be not as comfy positions
if white is available, i might get it
i have viper v3 but i wish it was a bit smaller
after beastx it feels like a brick in my hand
i'm waiting to see what weight the pulsar mouse comes in at
i hope it's sub 35g for final version
when are they releasing it
maybe next month or two, they said may is production
š imma wait for it then, before deciding between it or a beast x
what happened with the modular mouse i wonder
oh fk it ships end of this month
they just need to make holes or start using another material
no reason stormbreaker max cf is lighter than the VV3 pro lmao
CF VV4 would be kinda nice
Sharkosaur I stand corrected, for the Venom in the January case, I do need to grind the PCB a bit. The front wasn't setting on the o-ring lip correctly and when I compared it to the stock PCB you can see where I need to grind the board.
Oh did he leave the server again lol
Haha
Sent Geon a msg to make sure it's good to grind those areas down. Should be. Might have to build it as an MX build for now
unusable size
for me
this size diff is gonna be nice
viper v3 pro the best mouse oat
1/10 ragebait
no rage bait
viper v3 gud
Deathadder 2013 best
magic mouseš«¦
realistically the viper v3 pro is the best mouse
because the 8k hz polling rate makes the biggest difference
Surely
yea, 8k is viper v3 exclusive feature surely
gpx, g502 hero (not best but very popular and iconic), beast x, finalmouse ulx, op1 8k, they are all arguably better then viper v3 for various reasons
yup 8k polling on viper v3 is also evry noticable and def is 100% of the time at 8k polling
what
HP office mouse better
Shaped like a literal mouse
Easy win

š±ļø š
How do you like the Ulx 
lottery for if you get a good nmodel or not lmao
Gross
finalmouse moment
Hopefully spoit got a good model
nah if its a good model then yeah its good
Part of me is interested but lottery system for mice makes me apprehensive still
we love gambling
Mushiest clicks possible
crunchy clicks
I LOVE CRUNCH!!
will there be a seperate numpad from wooting or is there a numpad that fits the slyte of the white zinc alloy case?
no and no
@sacred elm this is gonna be it isnāt it? š

Hope not
surely it wonāt be
W gray jades š„
I saw the voting results... People basically voted for the exact same switches they already make lol
So I just set up my wooting and it was working but now itās notā¦.. any advice?
It was just on and now it wonāt work
Which board?
60HE+
Any mods or using a different cable?
nylon and pom top housing came out on top but the chosen color was transparent so gateron went with PC š„
Using the one it came with
wasd
Downloaded the updates but now it wonāt work
Make sure it's plugged in all the way and that the USB port you're using is good. I'd try another port in a different location to be safe
Weāve tried that a couple times, even tried a new cord just to be safe and nothings worked
Also, if you have a another machine to try, even if a laptop to rule out the Mach
We did thatā¦. And we plugged in the old keyboard and everything is working greatā¦.. just for some reason the wooting is not wanting to work
Not sure what else to doā¦. Itās brand new out of the box
The next step is to try a hard reset. https://help.wooting.io/article/90-how-to-restore-reset-my-wooting-one-or-wooting-two-flaretech
The purpose of this article is to help you with the factory reset, restore and recover process to solve any issues with settings, actuation or connection issues
If these steps do not help the next step would be to open a support ticket through the Wooting hub
Ok thank you
So basically they made a switch with the same materials as every other switch
Bout to go into hibernation until a company finally decides RGB doesn't matter and we need different materials for HE switches
or create my own anti-RGB Switch company
we gotta start making switches out of just maximum silicone
I can provide initial investments of 50 bucks and a chewing gum
for their new switches announced in their discord, itās supposedly a POM bottom housing. The materials donāt seem to be listed here so not sure if itās the same. Boring af either way.
Ah gotcha
not boxstemš gg
i have 80he pcr case but not sure if i should get zinc or gt-80 any suggestions?
What is it you don't like about the PCR case?
I should have clarified my fault. I like the pcr case, feels great but I have a 60he with tofu case. I would like to implement a metal case with my 80he
In that case pick the one that looks best to you or go with the zinc since it's really unique. I love my zinc case
Yeah it seems like it, trying to find aftermarket cases is a struggle and wooting offering free shipping is a bonus too
No one else makes a zinc case and something like the raw zinc looks unique
If you want to mod your wooting regularly id say GT80
also gives you longer JST cable which is nice and a lil more secure
I ended up really resenting the bottom case screws since it adds alot of unnecessary time if you like to mod
GT80 is also a little bit brighter than Zinc
Unless you buy zinc raw, the gt80 superior to both white zinc and black zinc
Oh @ionic breach seems production going well
Still no idea what they got final weight down to though
and it has been done
one step closer to being a keyboard enthusiast hopefully lol
Welcome to the club Jordan
ohhhh nooooo my identity lol
It's ok. I'm Tim. Now we are even.
Im honored to join the club Tim
@calm pulsar got the silver OG built today. I'll take a picture of the triplets tomorrow when I figure out what keycaps to toss on it.
Tirade did you see the keycaps I bought yesterday?
I'm gifting them to a friend to get them started in the hobby 
What profile are those XDA?
Yea could be, not 100% sure
I cant lie, I'd use them on one of my fun boards
Anyone know of some keycaps that are in between regular ones and blank ones?
I like the look of blanks but am messing up typing so much now cuz I dumb š
How do u get between blanks and reg

Thatās why Iām asking the more knowledgeable

Iām getting the raw zinc from wooting and was looking at Osume keycaps. Anyone have any recommendations as to what might look good on the zinc
Canāt find any combos online heh
Well I thought itās either u get blanks or letters
Use your imagination
Or gmk cosmos if u can see the letters
Tbh the raw is so versatile i dont think you need to worry
My imagination is poor, but thatās fair
Iām worried the pastels look too warm on a cold zinc
Cosmos doesnāt look bad wonder if the letters show a little from the light under
You can also photoshop a mockup
Thatās a pretty good idea
They dont
Source: me i have gmk cosmos
Shit is not shine through
Ah okay
So Iād need my light in my room to see them
Damn
Iām a darkness dweller
Cosmos + dark room = glorified blanks with sprinkles
= longer gaming session
My power billā¦.
Im ngl

hrm @ionic breach
i hope they get it at least 35g, it'd be weird to have the fingertip mouse be heavier than their full size x2

welp either way it will be much lighter than all the mice ive used
Some cosmos pics for ya
Galaxy type of look
I donāt hate it
I just mess up when I type cuz of blanks
But I like blanks the best
Very tough place
clean
Which mouse is this?
pulsar x2f, their fingertip one that's coming
O thats nice
How do people use fingertip lmao, maybe Iām weird but i can control my mouse enough
they are used to it
you get used to it over time, then you have more small movement control
My arm tenses up when I use fingertip to try to control the mouse lol
yeah if you're not used to it then it's super uncomfortable at first
Day 11 of waiting for 60HE v2 š“ Good night.
are owlab ti he the best he switches atm orr
depends on what you prefer, check the faq channel for switch list. There's the upcoming wooting switch too but we don't know when that's being released
aight
how tf do i clean bdz off of my stabs
oh then just wipe off the lube with a tissue and balance and reapply after
if it's just wire that's easy to wipe off
the housings have it everywhere so those are a bit tricky to clean
well housing doesn't matter if you're just trying to straighten wire
just leave that there
hmm
are there any new switches out that sound better than gateron jade pros
define better
less hall effect chatter
Why does it need to be from Gat?
I misread.
Ti HEs, UR Ice Maxes (and Ultras), Phylina Lightnings
Duhuks too, maybe.
Depends on how much you like a dampened top out.
do you have sound tests for them
man, im out of the game for a few months , and they invent all these new words lol
Ti HEs here: #š§ākeyboard_modding message also a comparison between Raw HEs, Lekker V2s and TTC KoMs.
Yeah, every day a new magnetic switch pops up..
and very few with easy to remember names. š
thank you
it's the hot new thing right now so chinese manus just cracking out switches and flipping through the dictionary as hard as they can to pick out weirdest words to name their products with
yea, those names are quite something
This is an entirely different config but may help compare:
1st, Ice Ultras
2nd, Jade Pros
3rd, Phylinas
omg, literally all of them sound so good tho
foamed up wooden case with alu plate š
wow
and thick keycaps
how is the stem woble with all of these new switches btw, because on the old HE switches it was quite bad, but have most manufacturers got it figured out now?
All a significant improvement over Jade Pros. Phylina Lightings more so, even said to have less wobble than TTC KoMs and the likes.
ooh okok, i am still from the time when the Geon Raws were the best, so thats what ive been rocking all this time, but i will probably get a 60HEv2 when that comes out with the split spacebar. but then i wonder if i scavenge my current raws and throw my old lekkers in the current build, or if i keep the raws and get new switches for the V2
i think ice ultras sound the best to me
but ill probably wait with any decisions till the boards actually almost out
since who knows what else comes out in this time
Iād get new switches for the v2 for sure. Raw HEs are similar to Jade Pros in terms of wobble, so a bit outdated already in my opinion. :)
Theyāre all really cheap from AliExpress, so you can get some to try as well.
With all the releases of the last two months alone, thatās def the smarter thing to do. š
what is the difference between ultra and max
i alreaady have way too many switches just sitting unused, and i kinda hate that, since it feels like a waste, but i dont want to use them with all the better options out ther
1st, stock Max vs Ultra
2nd, hand lubed Max vs Ultra
I feel you, same thing here.
but it makes it fun too.
Always something else to try.
thats true for sure
max is first right\
In the video, yeah. First Max then Ultra.
Max arenāt even for sale anymore are they
About to say, yeah. Maxes did get discontinued, sort of.
tl;dr - ultra are the newer better replacement
Maxes had slight friction, thatās probably why they were discontinued and replaced.
They sound quite different to Ultras though.
Similar to stem swapped Raptors compared to Lekkers for example.
fucking ultra and max and pro, the most awful and annoying naming scheme to ever grace the world and every single chinese manu is obsessed with it
That's right. Their sense of naming is hopeless. Jade, Max, Pro, Ultra, God, Emperor, King, Gaming, Dragon etc...
maybe their new thing is fungus sounding names
It's probably named by a 10-year-old child.
As long as it sounds cool, I guess.
Lekker Tikken is funny as hell
Strukie Duhukie šš
š
@glacial wind whats name of your ugly blue switch
only available in limited 1 day order batches once every 3 months at $2.5 each, promising the worlds lowest flux change
then the company will disappear after 2 months 29 days
Will be better than fluxes
with new flux capacitors
Fluxes will be benched in few months, Tikkens on top
How big is this stem lol
would you like any switch with your stem?
No idea
wish i could find reviews on this
zuoya lmk21
and its latency
i wanna use it as a silly keypad for rhythm games when i get tired of magnetic switches
i cant bother spending so much on the keychron numpad
Plain but nice.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
$92
thats actually not that bad
everything from wooting or associated or designated or designed for has a markup of 500%
so i was expecting more
itās for taobao
so getting it anywhere outside of china would be around $130 or so
still not bad at all
yes š
that makes it more reasonable
if that shi was plastic i would have been crashing out
š
itās alu and brass
plastic case above $50 is criminal
thats what popular companies do
Is there any Case & Keycaps that would Match this Color?
https://kbdfans.com/products/tofu60-redux-case?variant=41734373474443
Maybe this, altough the pic looks like its a bit more blueish?
Specs Case: Anodized Aluminum, E-coating Aluminum, Brass or Acrylic Weight bar: Brass, surface sandblasted process Structure: Tray-mount Compatible with most 60% PCB, including DZ60 rev3.0/DZ60 RGB-ANSI/DZ60RGB V2/GH60/Wooting 60HE PCB, etc. As seen in our video in the photo gallery! Weight: Aluminum case approximately
i saw that one, but maybe there is 1 maybe one closer to this
https://i.imgur.com/U8uB16y.jpg GMK Selene (believe)
What caps are those? im looking for some thicker ones
oh these are keycaps you either like or dont like i dont think i like them
like the shiny effect on it
but its def close to the mouse tho
i could also go with white case, white keycaps with some purple
but i cant find tho
No clue honestly but itās pretty easy to find thicker PBT keycaps. Dye-sub even more so than double shot.
We need more metallic keycaps ASAP
Theyāre so cool.
So shiny!
Gimme Cosmos with visible legends and I'm satisfied
(and about 50% more sparkle)
Owlab Ti or WS flux for sound?
Preference
Depends on budget imo
Flux have some QC issues (too strong magnet/weak legs), but you wonāt notice any issues on Wooting PCB if you remove the switches from the plate instead of from keyboard directly. Owlab will be a lot cheaper
Difference of $4.80 per 10 vs $20 per 10
they both sound good, although totally different sound profiles and ws flux is way louder
given the flux issues basically no one should buy them until the qc fixes are confirmed though
their sales seem pretty abysmal though, so looks like a lot of people just aren't buying them even due to price before you get to qc stuff that general public isn't super aware about
all the ali express listings have barely any sales for them
They would be my top pick for $1 per switch, but $190 for 90 is straight fucked 
even at $2 maybe you could justify it in ways if it were amazing in every way, but then their qc is so scuffed that there's no way to justify it
Yeah thatās the unfortunate part
Just like all those times I told you so and you never agreed with me š„
maybe varedis is disgusted by your lack of appropriate lighting equipment. Maybe grab the amaran light dome 90 and a good cob light https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008489737110.html
You never used my closed bottom raw with Jade max springs so you donāt know the pain of PC plate with those and having it fucking nuke your sound
LMAO
I just like the unique sound of FR4 fluxies
Itās like brass
Very unique š„
Very loud very marbly 
Mr arc just needs to test drive them on his benom for my future build hehe
test drive calibration issuesš„
USPS surprisingly didnāt fumble last week
Mr Turing with his usps hard on as per usual
Their DC workers suck admit it
Drivers probably not
I'm just trying to prevent it from becoming privatized/replaced by private companies which would be bad for everyone.
Yeah thatās not going to happen you preventing it
But to keep it memey, patriot_verified.gif
It's my vote, counts just as much as the next guy's
Until I nullify it hehe
And they do generally provide me with good service, so š¤·
Jk idc about the local MA elections
You sure theyāre not paying you to say that š«¦

$7.25 in bribe money (federal min. wage) peeking out my back pocket
Techtok

That first one LMAO
yez yez
Well well well
Perf maxxers can be safely ignored IMO
256k scanrate moment
Wonder when will people understand that those tests mean nothing nowadays
0.001 rt
Their opinions are entirely unrelated to anything of real substance
At least once you get down to a decent latency
When ppl canāt afford a $200 keyboard so they just get a weird knockoff instead š„
I totally get that
atks rs6 better than 60he v2 because aspas is using it bro bro broš¹
And still, itās at least some kind of argument against the idiots who believe in numbers pulled out of nowhere, numbers that the manufacturer may have achieved, but never actually optimized, so youāll never see them in real life.
It is used by who?
valorant pro
Nn guy
aight
those tests are meaningless if the keyboard sucks balls, just look drunkdeer is below 80he
Drunk deer clears
Drunkdeer better than 80he, because dd is beerproof
i wish it was shitproof
If youāre not using drunk deer with raeds what are you doing
sad.
What should I do with my autocorrect, if heās literally retard ._.
disable it
Changing beer-proof to bearproof is crazy ngl
"But bro is it 0.04ms"ššš
that one bili reviewer tested a few more switches including the flux, jade gaming recolor and taishan gt
and here's how they look in a chart
What's the top one? KOM?
taishan gt = og kom, flux = uranus esports, somehow the jade gaming recolor is worse than the original
kom rgb on top
2nd is the kom rgb valentines edition
3rd is og kom
where's POM?
never tested them
okay, good enough
Guess KOM still dominante
Makes the $1 price for each switch bearable
is 3.2 flux?
2.3
what switch is above it with Pro in the name?
Flux Chinese name kinda looking like Hexagonal Switch/8 sides switch.
sish i
the ttc switch with army camo, commando pro or something like that
ye they're not called flux over there
@tropic urchin š
according the chart, flux is almost 3x worse than the top which is TTC KOM RGB.
can i get a translation
oh yes the mystery testing š„

pom is same as rgb mold/magnet
so it'd be the one at the top magneto rgb
they just took the rgb mold and used pom mats
so whats the top one lmao
top 3 are all magneto of various types
to me they've just felt like shorter spring POMs with a different sound imo
š wtf
granted tests and real world experience usually isnt always the same
it goes magneto rgb > magneto rgb recolor valentines day edition > magneto og if you wanted the order of them
i mean thats the biggest difference
nah i swear i can feel that its not, fluxes arent as hair trigger as poms
you can get into the weeds of if you think either has more top wobble than the other or w/e but its genuinely very close
atleast from my experience using both
OG POMs were very active due to their lighter + longer spring
Still loving those OG poms in my salv for gaming
but from a pure wobble perspective they should be almost equal
honestly it's kind of crazy how long the kom line has held at the top as far as stability goes
Their reign began what, around october last year?
