[glossy pagoda]

It's optional on Owlabs

[cunning sparrow]

So I can just use it on my tofu case?

[glacial wind]

owlab was never a strap holder. They've always had a tab on the side for their whole recent era range

it's been their thing for all of the jelly lineup

[tidal frigate]

Atk looks like want to be sued

[tawdry tree]

🥰

[spiral crater]

anybody know some of the best 4mm HE switches rn? i got 3.5mm recently but still finding it a bit awkward

[austere creek]

ok i still dont get it

[tidal frigate]

Wait...

[tawdry tree]

DrunkDeer’s Qians by Raesha probably.

[tawdry tree]

As if the strap made sense in the first place.

[tidal frigate]

Though raesha are not compatible with ks20

[tawdry tree]

You haven’t seen the trailer?

[tawdry tree]

Some are, some aren’t. Qians are though.

[sacred elm]

Epic 🦅 🔥

[tawdry tree]

https://tenor.com/view/phoenix-fire-flame-blue-phoenix-gif-8377452262036525716

[glacial wind]

qians good stability, but same as polar pro with the sound - so just be warned if you care about sound

[austere creek]

this didnt explain anything except being incredibly loud and clipped

[tawdry tree]

Watch the whole thing, specifically at like 35sec

The loudness is part of the experience

🥰

[austere creek]

ok so it just confirmed its still mounted to the stem

[tawdry tree]

31*

[spiral crater]

if i go for thicker foam than the 80he stock foam, will that mess with any of the switches/pcb? (in the gt80 case, so not the stock wooting case)

[languid kestrel]

hum?

[spiral crater]

and aligner, thank you for the UR ice studio ultra switch recommendations, absolutely loving them

[glacial wind]

should be fine IF it fits. Is there a reason you want thicker foam though?

thicker doesn't always equal deeper if that's your goal

[sacred elm]

Try polyfill instead of foam

[tawdry tree]

The more compressed foam is, the more it sounds like silicone instead 😭

[spiral crater]

ohhhhh

[spiral crater]

whats polyfill? like what does it do to sound profile

[tawdry tree]

Same stuff that’s in plushies

Ah

[cyan lark]

Scraped some paint off the sponge location and test continuity from the case to the usb sleeve once everything is installed

[sacred elm]

It helps with hollow sound

and makes the sound cleaner

[sweet oak]

Amen

[reef oar]

amen

[spiral crater]

ahhh, tbh i dont feel like my sound is hollow (apart from stabs but ordered stab kit and some dampening for the keys), just trying to deepen my sound profile however i can right now

[sacred elm]

Wait for new Lekker Tikken switches

[spiral crater]

i just bought new switches and a case 😭 , im dead broke and then i saw the new switches/kb announcement at work and i wanted to cry

[sacred elm]

They won't be out for a while

Polyfill is one of those cheap mods you can try, it mutes high frequencies and can make your keyboard sound a bit deeper

[spiral crater]

also mechanical foam switch pads won't work for he switches will they?

[sacred elm]

No, can mess with accuracy

[spiral crater]

ahhh okok thanks, might try the polyfill trick then, i can just go to a crafts store and buy any polyfill right? like theres not some specific type of polyfill i gotta buy?

[sacred elm]

Any polyfill will do the job

[cunning sparrow]

the wooting friction pad on my tofu60 redux case without the sponge

[languid kestrel]

yes

[cunning sparrow]

is the sponge included?

[cyan lark]

No, I bought some off Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0CXPHPYZR?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

[cunning sparrow]

its very unlikely to brake but it can happen right?

[languid kestrel]

what would break it

there's no force that I can think of that will break the keyboard unless the case (unrelated) is grounded

[fallen pecan]

gateron gold dragon just another recolored jade gaming

[gaunt plume]

https://e.tb.cn/h.hlFIOtAZdQ6SlxW?tk=ywCQ4VUr0aY

🧐

[cyan lark]

It's Friday, is Tikken here yet?

[tropic urchin]

No but the gold Gade Gayming is here

[ruby hill]

Tikken are manufacture by who?

[cunning sparrow]

i need some clean white keycaps for my white build

[cyan lark]

Sir, my time is gold, do not waste it with Gateron news.

[cyan lark]

Classic BoW

[fallen pecan]

kbdfans xray

[little glen]

not sure if this has been said anywhere etc but i'd guess hejin since lekker v2 is made by them and they seem to be the best manu for switches that arent too expensive and are good quality

[sacred elm]

Hejin, same manu as Owlab Ti

[ruby hill]

Nice

[round sparrow]

sander doesnt like the tikken

it's joever

[sacred elm]

Huh?

[round sparrow]

pretty sure he said they were to crunchy

[tropic urchin]

@sweet oak lock in

[tidal frigate]

Well he kinda ingested keyboard lube and milk mixed together

[sweet oak]

I am always locked in

Crunched in even

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/crunch-cat-luna-eat-gif-3997701764820700221

[calm pulsar]

god's crunchiest warrior

[calm pulsar]

cute jade, but it probably looks better on renders than irl

[tropic urchin]

🧢

[honest spear]

Did this work ?

[cyan lark]

Yes, I verified that the case was grounded by using a multimeter to check continuity from a section of the case to the usb port sheath.

edit: removed the parts where I was being a dick

Man I need a vacation

[stoic ocean]

Does anyone have the elf king's switches

[tropic urchin]

I think @trail bane does

[trail bane]

Yep

[safe sphinx]

does anyone know how thin the pet film under the 60he v2 switches is

[stoic ocean]

How they fell and sound

I want a thock or creamy sound keyboard and idk which switches i can buy

[stray tiger]

Your best bet will be to wait on the Lekker Tikkens a bit longer. They are the closest to a creamy sounding switch out there atm.

[trail bane]

#1351676725980958730 message

[stray tiger]

For thocky, that's a bit tougher. There are so e deeper sounding switches but it's still not really thocky

[stoic ocean]

For a creamy sound i was thinking of ur ice ultra or something like this

But thx guys for the help

[tropic urchin]

UR ice is going to sound deeper than creamy from the sound tests I’ve seen on em.

Probably a good choice while waiting for tikkens if you want a new set to play with

[tawdry tree]

Very thin, 0.1mm or so.

[distant crag]

Have you tried comparing UR Ice Ultra and Lekker Tikkens? Im wondering if I the tikkens are worth the wait or a creamy sounding magnetic switch

[stray tiger]

I do not have the UR Ice Ultra sorry.

[tulip rapids]

titon realest when?

[sacred elm]

They are in production. Wooting plans to release them before 60HE v2

[tulip rapids]

shafie its me

[sacred elm]

Oh 😭

[tulip rapids]

@steady halo

maybe i should change the name to "goku - the super saiyan frog"

[steady halo]

https://tenor.com/view/you-venom-venom-let-there-be-carnage-pointing-right-there-gif-23342866

[steady halo]

wait really?

ngl, i want to see if the "friction fit" fits the leggera T

[wispy vine]

I dont have a video of them but I do have UR ice. I really like the sound, the volume is a bit louder than my preference but I'm used to a case with hole that probably allow for sound to not be as loud (URs are comboed with pbt caps, 3 layers of foam, aluminum plate and case.)

[steady halo]

i might consider purchasing the module and put it on my leggera T (if the prebuilt version is too expensive)

[chilly mural]

great idea

[steady halo]

ngl if the prebuilt is $280

i might skip it

[chilly mural]

nah, it wont be that much I hope

[steady halo]

i could get leggera T with free carrying case and purchase the 60he v2 & tikkens

[sacred elm]

I also want leggera T for 60HE v2 but not sure if you can fit it in with friction pad

also you have to ground it, just in case

[steady halo]

i might just use a single screw

on the spacebar i guess

or the middle one

[stray tiger]

I'm looking forward to the silver version of the 60HEv2 to complement my RAW 80HE

[little glen]

Looking forward to putting my 60he v2 in the salvation

[tropic urchin]

Silver really is the way to go 🥶

[little glen]

Wish it fit in the neo 60cu but daughterboard requirements and usb port placements say no

Thats the bottom of the case so you're probably not going to see it often anyways

[umbral summit]

where do u guys buy straps

[stray tiger]

A lot of people have found them on Etsy but I also think there are some of the Asian marketplaces like TB or AliExpress

[paper bison]

the start of the 80he

[grand hawk]

i have to take my keyboard apart soon to install my dupe holy60 and some new keycaps and a cable, what mods should i do while im at it?

[marsh saffron]

Lube/tune your stabs

Yt has tons of tutorials

[sweet oak]

you will never beat the original scholar of the titon

[grand hawk]

😭 lubing takes toooo looooonggggggg :((((((

[tawdry tree]

[tawdry tree]

Orsh*t and Orsh*t Raws 😃:thumbsup:

Higher pitched than Jade Gamings 💔🥀⛓️‍💥

If only Genty’s top housing dampened the sound..

😭

I’m still gonna try it

[glacial wind]

well that's not very interesting. Jade gaming were pretty average box stem feel and sound

[tawdry tree]

If it’s cleaner, might be interesting

[calm pulsar]

okay waiting for the next big switch then

[tropic urchin]

Yikes

Gateron will do anything but improve the Jade gaming for it to be an interesting competitor sound wise

Worst person you know just fumbled the bag

[peak breach]

Raptors v2

Trust

[glacial wind]

Where’s that guy with the gengar setup

He needs the new scraft lamp

[peak breach]

Yeah looks amazing

Cool thing is you will be able to just swap the mon in the future

[glacial wind]

I hope they make some for other Pokemon too. I was looking for interesting practical lights to put into background of video shots. I’d totally buy a charizard one or generic Pokeball lamp

[peak breach]

Personally i’d prefer mew or mewtwo but im probably gonna get it cause gengar looks too sick

[sweet oak]

they are also making a mew one along side the gengar

[glacial wind]

Did they say when that one will release?

[sweet oak]

dont think so

[glacial wind]

Mew is much more iconic to the original base set pokemon folk

[glacial wind]

That’s pretty neat

[peak breach]

This just a render

This is what gengar used to look like

[glacial wind]

Seems the core is replaceable in early designs

If so that’s very neat

So you can swap between the pokemon in the middle

[peak breach]

Yeah that’s the plan

You just have to buy the lamp once

Then you can replace the core

But they def gonna release masterball lamp etc

[glacial wind]

I regret not buying one of the master ball keycap holders

[peak breach]

I got 2

Still hoping for kyogre and groudon

But lamps of them would also be nice

[tawdry tree]

Sparks 🧨 and Titons?

[tawdry tree]

Jade “Gaming”, sound was never a consideration 😭

[uneven cradle]

Where's the Mewtwo one

[peak breach]

In development i hope

https://tenor.com/view/mewtwo-pokemon-tank-mewtwo-inside-a-tank-pokemon-mewtwo-gif-3239102942471498178

[steady halo]

i need umbreon

[trail bane]

There’s no way, afk gen chat

[little glen]

[silent hornet]

What wooting compatible switch feels most like the original gateron red switch?

[trail bane]

Any mx stem switch?

[silent hornet]

There's something that feels so crap about the common hall effect switches

Specifically the lekkers

I think it might be the lack of stem wobble, which makes travel distance feel like shit.

[trail bane]

Also you should take a look at lekker tikken(release ), elf kings

[sacred elm]

Which switches have you tried?

[silent hornet]

I've tried drunkdeer switches, lekker 45s, lekker 60s.

[sacred elm]

Try Owlab Ti

[little glen]

Tried poop shit and fart

[stark osprey]

@stray tiger . Pulled the trigger on these, figure you might be interested for your collection.

[tropic urchin]

now you need some strawberry keycaps king

[stark osprey]

Haha pairing them is going to be fun for sure

[tropic urchin]

lmk if you need any keycap ideas

[crimson sky]

the kol looks like very cursed ground beef

[stray tiger]

I bought one as well to go with my bingsu board

[stark osprey]

Haha that was one of the sets I was contemplating on too. Sweet!

[stray tiger]

I have been slowly acquiring older caps while I try and finish out the Neurokolks

[tropic urchin]

now you need to make a board out of them

not responsible for potential bankruptcy

Dawg you have to get cosmos

I’ll take back what I said about optimum case if you do

[cyan lark]

Don't lead our shafie right into a mistake

[tropic urchin]

He’s going optimum with blanks and isn’t going cosmos, he’s not locked

https://tenor.com/view/kuiil-have-spoken-mandalorian-star-wars-gif-15566834

he should go with this

Any cases out there like the Tofu60 redux with a 4 degree typing angle?

[tulip rapids]

are you scared about the 12pin connector?

[stray tiger]

I am running a 5080 now and it has been fine so I am crossing my fingers I will be ok.

[tulip rapids]

i shall prayge for you father

i been looking at 5080 too but i feel like the 12pin connector issues would make me paranoid

"me constantly checking if its alright "

been seeing some deals then and there

this is cad not usd btw

[tropic urchin]

You’ll be checking for like 2 weeks and prob not care after tbh

[sweet oak]

Im waiting for 60 series with my 4080 but i cant help myself from looking at 5090s

[tropic urchin]

60 series should be waiting for you after the 50 series 🤣

[tulip rapids]

probably right im just be cautious because i got pets and other people here and worried about gpu catching on fire

i have a 3080 and never thought once about that issue but with 5080 its different

[tulip rapids]

4080 is 12 pin too no?

[tropic urchin]

Hope your smoke detectors are up to date chiirp

[tulip rapids]

chiirp

yeah theyre

[sweet oak]

It is

[tulip rapids]

i actually had my co2 alarm go off last year while i was sleeping

[tulip rapids]

did you ever had problems?

@tropic urchin i was lucky i got all my kitties out. Theyre safe and sound

[tropic urchin]

Then you can bap the slowest for not following the leader

https://tenor.com/view/cats-slap-i-boop-you-gif-8482066

[sweet oak]

0 problems personally, using a corsair adapter for my psu and never had melting

[tulip rapids]

you got asus gpu no?

[sweet oak]

(My psu is also corsair just so people dont freak tf out)

[sweet oak]

Gigabyte

[tulip rapids]

gigabyte has a nice white gpu

[sweet oak]

Personally for my next one ill either go a better looking gigabyte or an msi/asus model

[tulip rapids]

i was thinking of getting the white 5080 msi is the price drops. But i gotta wait for black friday sales to decide what gpu to get either 9070 xt or 5080

[tulip rapids]

i love my asus rog but msi warranty came clutch for me and provided me a new mobo when i needed one

also heard asus warranty and customer service sucks

i want to try gigabyte but i hear mix reviews about them

[trail bane]

#🌐│pc_gear

[sweet oak]

Id probably be more likely to get an msi if they put their dragon logo on the left side of the backplate rather than on the right

[tulip rapids]

yeah i agree with that

non rgb model has this

the ventus

[tropic urchin]

True

[tulip rapids]

the suprim also doesnt have it

[tropic urchin]

Forget what cable I ended up using but replaced default for a white one 🌹

[sweet oak]

i just know if i go a 90 class i have to also beef up my psu lol

[tropic urchin]

MSI dragon is tuff

[sweet oak]

that is what im sayin

[tropic urchin]

Extra crunchy

[sweet oak]

the cute version is even crunchier

[tropic urchin]

I want like 2-3 XL design draping the GPU

Like their mobo

[sweet oak]

i want them to put a dragon that spans the side where they usually put those cringe displays or rgb

[tropic urchin]

Gn

[cedar gate]

Where did the second O come from🤣

That looks clean tho

[harsh dove]

My 4090 been fine for bout 2 years now, you should be good

it's kinda RNG tho, just make sure it's fully seated and flush with the socket (I'm sure you know)

[harsh dove]

constantly checking makes it worse

increase chances for error/melting

[tulip rapids]

youre right

i heard asus software tells you if all the pins are properly connected which is pretty cool

imo

[harsh dove]

Yeah I have an asus card

[steady halo]

i've been looking for 9070xt so hard

[harsh dove]

it reads the voltage going thru the pins

[steady halo]

discount would make me cop that card

[harsh dove]

and supposed to auto shutoff if something wrong

don't know how reliable that is tho

[tulip rapids]

me too but the prices here increased and i seen some sales on 5080

[tulip rapids]

i would hope its reliable

[steady halo]

if the price is similar to msrp, it would be the best price to performance

[harsh dove]

Right lol

[tulip rapids]

you got 5080 or 5090 cam?

[harsh dove]

Neither just 4090

[tulip rapids]

yeah for sure

[harsh dove]

I'm outdated

[steady halo]

and idk, if nvidia fix their nvidia drivers for linux

[tulip rapids]

oh

i mean its still good

[harsh dove]

Yeah I mean the only thing it doesn't have is 4x FG

just 2x

but you can do 4x with lossless scaling if you really wanted too

but LS is inferior to DLSS FG imo

it has its use cases tho

esp for fps capped games, typically older games

[steady halo]

i miss my 4090, even though i'm playing every game on the lowest graphics there is (it was really overkill)

😦

[harsh dove]

and 5090 is only about 20-30% faster than 4090

[steady halo]

any tips for using medium or high graphics on games?

[crimson sky]

the issue is not that it is "only" that amount faster

[steady halo]

[crimson sky]

the issue is that it isn't any more efficient

[harsh dove]

That too

uses more power

would be nicer if it was 20-30% faster while using less power but still not a big generational leap

its basically a 4090ti

[harsh dove]

What do you mean by tips? Like best settings? It's all gonna come down to your system and what your preferences are

[steady halo]

noooo, I can't get myself to love playing games on high graphics

[harsh dove]

What do you mean?

Like you enjoy low graphics?

[steady halo]

yep,
i could say i was wasting my money on 3090 because i keep playing games on the lowest settings

[harsh dove]

Have you experienced high graphics?

like with a smooth frame rate?

[steady halo]

yep, but can't get myself to enjoy playing it

[steady halo]

yep

[harsh dove]

How come?

Like you want more fps?

[steady halo]

idk because of my habit of playing OG games or such

i get myself to love the lowest graphic i can have (not until unplayable)

like less shadows and such

[harsh dove]

Do you just want high fps or you prefer the way lower graphics look?

[tropic urchin]

thats the neat part, either you can run it or you cant

[steady halo]

i think...

i prefer

the lower graphics look

[harsh dove]

Interesting

[steady halo]

i feel like getting motion sick on high settings with insane shadows or such

[harsh dove]

Yeah I mean everyone is different and has their preferences lol

I like modding graphics in games a lot so I can get photos like this

[tropic urchin]

i cant see any pixels its too high!!!!!!

[tulip rapids]

i feel like upgrading from a 3080 to 5080 would be a better jump then switching to 9070 xt but that 9070xt price is to appealing to ignore

[tropic urchin]

too*

[harsh dove]

Yeah I mean the 9070xt is pretty decent but 5080 would be better

[tulip rapids]

thank you good sir 🧐

yeah its just the 2k price point

anyways i wont be upgrading till black friday unless a sale randomly drops that i cant resist

[harsh dove]

Yeah try to get it on sale if you can

[tulip rapids]

yeah i been eyeing to do an all white build but the prices rn are whack

[harsh dove]

The white tax

White parts usually more expensive than black counterparts

[tulip rapids]

yeah

🥀

probably going to do a normal build worst case scenario

[harsh dove]

I mean, if you're patient and save up, can build the pc you want

and try to get deals on parts

[crimson sky]

Yea colormatching white is much harder

[tulip rapids]

its just me justifying paying those prices but i'll have to wait and see for sales

like this gpu so nice but look at the price 💀

https://a.co/d/dsaLuRt

[harsh dove]

yeah hell no

that's not USD is it?

[tulip rapids]

cad 🥀

[harsh dove]

Thought so

[tulip rapids]

usd is like 829

[harsh dove]

Yeah way better but still

[paper bison]

That's still crazy

[tulip rapids]

this is usd

[steady halo]

wow white tax

[tulip rapids]

cad

[harsh dove]

Crazy

[tropic urchin]

MSI is now in on white GPU build???????

[tropic urchin]

hoo mama

that is hawt

[tulip rapids]

im still waiting for the white asus

they made a video about it

[tropic urchin]

white astral or something else

[tulip rapids]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg_SsAvdAJ8

all their lines

im mad they didnt do it for the asus tuff 9070 xt

or else i would get that shit in a heart beat if the price was good

[tropic urchin]

why did they go all out for the color with their 30 series but then abandon it going forwards

[tulip rapids]

i have no idea

feels like the world is less passionate nowadays

🥀

[harsh dove]

I liked the Gigabyte Aero cards

[tropic urchin]

bros hitting hard at 7 PM on a saturday

[tulip rapids]

i never had gigabyte but it does look nice

[tulip rapids]

i almost got the 3080 white gundam one but it sold out so quick

[harsh dove]

Gotta get you one of them HOF cards

[tropic urchin]

30 series was so fucked

i wanted a white strix card so bad but had to go all out for the FE

had to side step all the zotac and other cards and wait for the FE since everything was on giga back order

there was this guy streaming on twitch that had his own bot set up to announce when cards dropped on 9 diff sites

bro was him

I was sitting in it waiting for drops

[sweet oak]

Colors became less popular, MORE MODERNIZATION PLEASE I NEED MY GREYS WHITES AND CARBON BLACK NO COLOR ALLOWED

[tropic urchin]

grey is so lame

[sweet oak]

But its all thats left

[tropic urchin]

pretty soon we're going to have an optimum color inspired PC that everyone is going to copy

[tropic urchin]

not wrong, but its so fucking lame

[sweet oak]

Agreed

[tropic urchin]

im of the opinion grey is better served on clothes but that prob will start a war

[sweet oak]

Id like more variety for sure

That arent tied to collaborations mind you

Only MSI really has different colors, with the tan like color ones

[cyan lark]

Fashion is cyclical, colors will come back

[sweet oak]

Eventually yes

[chilly mural]

Someday, a movie with the color yellow will come out and it'll be the top color of the month

[tulip rapids]

i was lucky and got an asus rog strix 3080 12gb

i would have got 10gb but 12 gb is all they had

[tropic urchin]

so pretty

[tulip rapids]

i know when i found out they got rid of the rog line i cried

the 4080 rog looks nice as well

but with astral its still not bad but it aint rog 🥀

[stray tiger]

My system has been really stable lately with the 5080 and I've got a really good overclock on it, so I hope the 5090 is a good improvement.

[tulip rapids]

lets prayge for father to have good performance

[stoic ocean]

Ok ok but what do you think about AMD cards

[tulip rapids]

the 9070 xt are good

[stoic ocean]

I buy the 7900xt and 4months later they drop the 9000series

but honestly for the games i play this is enough

[tidal frigate]

Are you getting 4060 for physx?

[spiral crater]

wooting 80he plate is pc plate right?

[cyan lark]

Yes

[stray tiger]

Who still plays physx games?

[cyan lark]

Lots of people, I'd bet

[tidal frigate]

Well if you would like to play them

[spiral crater]

how would swapping it to an fr4 plate do? like to the sound?

[tidal frigate]

Wouldnt it be nice having normal framerate not like 5fps?

[stray tiger]

Does CS2 use PhysX?

[cyan lark]

https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_games_that_support_Nvidia_PhysX
Doesn't look like it

[stray tiger]

Then I'm good!

[uneven cradle]

buying a dedicated gpu for physX is crazy work

[stray tiger]

I did make a mistake today and bought 3 GMK sets at a really good discount and I don't really want any of them lol

[uneven cradle]

damn, you gonna pick up that MTNU set you were debating

[stray tiger]

Nah these were much older sets that I never owned and was curious. I think I paid around $70 each after shipping and PayPal fees so shouldn't be too hard to flip if I don't like them.

To be clear, it's not that I didn't want them, I just don't see myself owning a blue or purple board anytime soon and they are either blue or purple based sets

[uneven cradle]

not bad, I've been tempted by some of the deals recently but have not been swayed yet!

[stray tiger]

Well the worst part is I'm sure all of them are going to be the older style boxes and I've been trying to get rid of all of those so they will probably be flipped quickly

[uneven cradle]

yeah the shelf stack doesn't look so clean with the mix between old and new

[spiral crater]

anyone here has experience with HE switches and SA keycaps?

i feel like SA keycaps kind of cause an unwanted echo esp w HE switches bottoming out

or am i just crazy

[stray tiger]

They are a deeper keycap so that's possible but this usually doesn't happen with quality keycaps and is more prone to very thin SA keycaps

[tidal frigate]

Well because 50 series do not support physx

[mental salmon]

Finally upgraded my old GTX 1080, I have a 9070 XT now, since couple days

[spiral crater]

https://kprepublic.com/products/sa-profile-dye-sub-keycap-set-pbt-plastic-retro-beige-for-mechanical-keyboard-beige-grey-cyan-gh60-xd64-xd84-xd96-87-104?srsltid=AfmBOopHDB051JFrXCwnxAN5UmviVDQ1APT4BfrUw2Bh5LNU5oACvV9i

they are dye sub pbt 1.4mm thick

i thought that was considered decently enough? or is that considered thin?

[mental salmon]

Hey Father, how is everything going?

[stray tiger]

1.4mm thick isn't ridiculously thin but a lot of your quality stuff will be around 1.6-1.7mm

[stray tiger]

Heya doing good! How are you?

[spiral crater]

ahhhhhh damn, so just confirming my knowledge, SA keycaps tend to be the best for a deeper sound right?

[stray tiger]

Yes

[mental salmon]

All good, rocking a new GPU, also looking for a new headset, regarding keyboards just waiting for the 60HEv2 module when the time comes

[spiral crater]

also how do you guys find out the thickness of keycaps? ive found when ive went keycap shopping, most dont tell me how thick it is, it just says "thick doubleshot pbt" or etc

[stray tiger]

Congrats on the new GPU, I ordered a new one myself yesterday! Also waiting on the V2 🙂

[mental salmon]

What did you pick?

And thanks!!!

[stray tiger]

A lot of good brands will tell you. If they don't say, odds are they aren't very thick.

[stray tiger]

Grabbed a 5090 FE after trying to snag one for 4+ months now

[mental salmon]

Top of the line, congrats!!! 🎉

[spiral crater]

ahhh okok thank you!!, and if i could just ask one last question, whats realistically the difference between double shot/dye sub and abs and pbt? in sound profile wise

[stray tiger]

If profile and thickness are the same, PBT will be a little less high pitched than ABS. Not a big difference between dye sub and double shot in terms of sound.

[stray tiger]

Snagged one through the Navy Exchange of all places. Finally a good veterans benefit and it saved me sales tax

[spiral crater]

ahhhhh gotcha gotcha, appreciate it !!

[mental salmon]

I want to get a new set of keycaps, but still have plenty of time, the headset is more urgent and then my garmin watch died, time to refresh stuff

[tulip rapids]

9070 xt supports physx well no?

[mental salmon]

Did not check and I got one 🙂

[tulip rapids]

im pretty sure it does

[uneven cradle]

Right and which games do you need PhysX on in 2025?

Getting a dedicated 4060 so you can play borderlands 2 with PhysX enabled is the crazy part

[polar girder]

Nice dude. Congrats

[mental salmon]

People used to buy a dedicated PhysX card back in the day, right? Almost 20 years ago

[polar girder]

lol ez

[tidal frigate]

Well newer card = longer support

[stray tiger]

I still remember having a voodoo card lol

[mental salmon]

I remember ATI, and only reading about voodoo

[tidal frigate]

I dont think so i had voodoo

And vodoo was never a gpu card

[tidal frigate]

It was like addon to gpu to do heavy stuff

[stray tiger]

He said add-on card, which is what that was

[mental salmon]

Did Nvidia bought them? The whole company

[tidal frigate]

Thats why we had sli

[chilly mural]

Having a dedicated gpu is nice

And if people already do that they can also use AI with it

[tidal frigate]

Well not being able to play old games is not nice

[tidal frigate]

Well technicly we can use workstation gpu with physx support

[mental salmon]

Enjoy the night guys, talk to you tomorrow!

[uneven cradle]

well you can still play the game just with no PhysX on like how AMD cards have to play since release but why would you bother when it's only in two games that came out 10+ years ago that are still actually played sometimes by some people

[tidal frigate]

Well if you want play old games it would be nice playing them without issues

[uneven cradle]

so AMD cards can't play old games?

better let them know

[calm pulsar]

I wish CPU was able to calculate physics

[tropic urchin]

maybe it can get readded in 60 series as the main feature ☝️ 🤓

[uneven cradle]

They could probably add some kind of translation layer from 64 bit cuda to 32 but to add support that way

But on CPU it wouldn't be able to handle that

[tidal frigate]

Cpu cant into physx

[tulip rapids]

cyber punk 2077

[tropic urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/long-tears-gif-11087877242190144149

[calm pulsar]

it's not like you can't run the game without it

[tidal frigate]

Cpu physx is horrible

[crimson sky]

technically most of physx is run on the CPU

nvidia just wants to make sure that it stays exclusive to them

[harsh dove]

I know I'm late to this convo lol
but this is the list of games you would need to be concerned about if playing with 50 series, not really games to worry about lol

[tidal frigate]

Wasnt this list bigger?

[harsh dove]

Not sure, this is as of Feb 2025

[tidal frigate]

Got list.
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_games_that_support_Nvidia_PhysX

[harsh dove]

Yeah but some of these games utilize CPU PhysX without issues

whereas some games utilize GPU PhysX which would have issues

Like Witcher 3 for example

Uses CPU PhysX just fine without performance hit

[tidal frigate]

Issue is games that run mainly on gpu physx

[harsh dove]

yeah

then you have big performance hit

like Batman

[tidal frigate]

Ekhem mirrors edge

1fps from drstroying windows

[uneven cradle]

sucks that support is dropped for PhysX on those games but at the same time nobody is buying a secondary card to just play those titles

[harsh dove]

Nah, not unless they really wanted too

[calm pulsar]

if you play an old game like that its fine just to disable physx

[harsh dove]

I mean, people disabled PhysX in Mirrors Edge back in the day cause it had issues

[uneven cradle]

exactly all AMD/Intel users already play those games the exact same way

[tidal frigate]

Well not having fancy physx features well..

[uneven cradle]

yup just like all those on non Nvidia cards

[harsh dove]

Yeah most games designed themselves to be compatible with both

[tidal frigate]

Remember time when hairworks was demanding

[harsh dove]

Dude hairworks was so broken

[tidal frigate]

I didnt Notice it

[harsh dove]

It was just buggy

and didn't look that great

Its nice now

[cloud pivot]

i just got a sayodevice for getting into osu and it has no side cutouts for clips LOL @tawdry tree

ts so buns

pmo

[south badger]

can u help me by finding key caps looks like this

[languid kestrel]

no because any set that would have them would not have them on the correct rows

extremely unlikely you'll find a set that you like and that has those keycaps at all, let alone those keycaps on the correct rows

you can order a custom keycap set with that print but the quality of those is meh

[south badger]

ok where ?

[languid kestrel]

wasdkeyboards used to make them and I think yuzukeycaps or something like that

use google, idk

[south badger]

ok thx

[hushed stirrup]

i just realized the gasket on the 80he is the silicon layer and not on the plate with socks like other common boards

is this an HE limitation decision?

other HE boards like venom tkl has the tabs on the plate

[glacial wind]

gaskets come in a lot of styles and varieties

for he boards though they all tend to limit the bounce in the middle regardless of what gasket they pick, because super bouncy mid flex gasket performs horrible for HE accuracy

that's why wooting opted for a much more stiff gasket that's mostly about isolation more than bounce

[hushed stirrup]

yea from what i saw the boards that offer tabs on plate are alu and fr4

ive seen diy builds with the venom tkl but that gets into unsupported territory ig

[tawdry tree]

aren’t side cutouts a thing so that a switch can be opened while it’s still in the board? Why’d you want that?

[hushed stirrup]

can anyone with geon raw 40g and duhuk herz comment on the weight? they both have similar bottom out at 40-42g but the initial force listed is 27 on raws to 35 on herz

[ruby hill]

Must Tikken wait for the 60v2?

[sacred elm]

No

[sweet oak]

we will wait for titon until morale improves

[trail bane]

Keycaps(pre order) or plate and some accessories for holy80?

[steady halo]

for what pcb

[tropic urchin]

80HE

[steady halo]

[tropic urchin]

Might try for benom but prefer owlabs on there

And geon alu plate is pretty good sound and feel

[sweet oak]

herz big W

[tropic urchin]

PP plate + fluxies and new PBTFans PBT set build on GT80

Is ze build

[tropic urchin]

Depends on the keycaps

[trail bane]

Current fav

Can’t find literally no any cool white sets

[ruby hill]

New version of Flux is coming out that reduces the GS

[tropic urchin]

Are those replacing the alphas currently in your cerakey build?

[trail bane]

Idk maybe i’ll just sell my cerakeys

[tropic urchin]

Damn

[trail bane]

Just because they’re not that good with HE board as I expected

[tropic urchin]

You should be able to find more white sets if you try to target sets with more color

[wispy steppe]

I would like to change my wooting keycaps, I currently have the basic black ones. Does anyone know where I can buy them? some red anime would be perfect. Thanks in advance

[sacred elm]

If you want anime keycaps, you can probably find them on AliExpress. Keep in mind that keycaps on Ali aren't the best quality.

[tropic urchin]

you can find some kinda cool red ones, but any anime keycaps from like amazon/ali aren't going to be great quality wise

[trail bane]

Nothin💔

[tropic urchin]

I mean you might find an equal amounts of cream alphas but nothin is crazy

[trail bane]

I mean there’s a lot of white keycaps but they look to generic

[tropic urchin]

most are going to be generic unless you get colorful legends, but thats really it

[trail bane]

Ready for recommendations

[tropic urchin]

could try to find some if im bored enough, any deal breakers ahead of time

ABS/PBT?

complicated, simple?

[trail bane]

On your taste sir

[tropic urchin]

alot of power you have given me mr lander

[trail bane]

[tropic urchin]

also just realized 6 days ago marked my 1 year anniversary of buying booting

calibration: Yay or nay for alpha color

[trail bane]

Only 3 years of barranty left🥀

[tropic urchin]

ermm technically 3 years and 4 months since it arrived in December

[trail bane]

[tropic urchin]

yay or nay

[trail bane]

Erm Sir this looks sick but i have yellow and white boly case

[tropic urchin]

calibration test mr lander

[trail bane]

In other case yay

[tropic urchin]

you have any particular side key colors you want

TBH

if you're going white and yellow holy80

you might as well just get cream keycaps

you're already half way there

[trail bane]

Actually yeah

[tropic urchin]

GMK Dragon Witch is a good contender if you like the novelties/purple

[trail bane]

I want order copper plate

[tropic urchin]

this could kinda cook

i actually like this alot

it is a little cream/tan but yeeesh

[trail bane]

I’ll need to do some tweaking in Photoshop to see how well they fit

[tropic urchin]

they will give you some contrast to your white top case

which could work

[wispy vine]

will you be getting a knob for your holy80 when those come out?

if so a mix of white/yellow maybe gold/black could work

[tropic urchin]

technically not what you wanted for alphas, but this could also work from a top down view depending on how much you like red lander

Goated purple set (dragon witch sans novelties)

[trail bane]

Maybe, depends on amount of 9
$9(9).99

[wispy vine]

i pray to god its not 99 for either knob, that seems like alot

[trail bane]

Can predict the price will starts from around 30usd

[wispy vine]

that sounds good to me

[tropic urchin]

GMK Abyssal also cool if you like underwater/dark blue side key aesthetic

[trail bane]

And use cerakey as artisan

[tropic urchin]

not a bad play

[wispy vine]

are gmk clone sets frowned upon if mentioned in here?

[tropic urchin]

not frowned upon, but you're just not going to get the same quality keycaps as if you got authentic

if that doesnt matter to you then get em

[wispy vine]

ah ok, and hey you will always miss out on quality not buying authentic

[tropic urchin]

yeah thats why ive never personally tried/try to discourage from getting them since they're very cheap compared to the originals, but prob gonna get some UV print shit instead

[wispy vine]

clone civilization set since you mentioned white alphas

[tropic urchin]

Civilization has some nice white too

[trail bane]

Good old days with blone gmk first love

[tropic urchin]

nice set too if you like blue

[wispy vine]

I like that

[tropic urchin]

kinda similar to my GMK Lazurite sans novelties

[tulip rapids]

thats the gameboy keycaps no?

[tropic urchin]

that idk

[tulip rapids]

nvm its different

fellow keeb chatters what do we think on the rainy75 keyboard?

[calm pulsar]

@tropic urchin have you forgotten about the purple cosmos gmk set?

forgot how its called

[tulip rapids]

burple

[tropic urchin]

Oh you mean the ic that hasn’t updated since February 😭

@calm pulsar

Partially why I went salt lakes bc this shit is chalked

[calm pulsar]

we will get gta 6 before this set

[tropic urchin]

That’s cuz we not getting that set prob

Dead set

[calm pulsar]

[little glen]

i need more good purple sets

still super upset i missed out on dragon witch

[tropic urchin]

you should still be able to find something 2nd hand per chance but might take some digging

[little glen]

idk i'm not too confident

[tropic urchin]

probably will have some markup but should still be doable with enough looking

[little glen]

i'm not too interested in paying more than 150 euro for a set rn

and just from a quick look i couldnt find something right away

[crimson sky]

no it's violet on cream

thank god

i still have to play that game

been collecting dust in my library for 4 years

[harsh dove]

Yeah it’s one of the best, I’ve been doing a playthrough of it again fully modded and trying to 100% everything

[mild cargo]

Do the wooting kom pom switches come pre lubed

[harsh dove]

Yes but not a lot

[mild cargo]

Thank you

[harsh dove]

KOM just puts 3 dots of lube on the bottom housing

[sour blade]

is it possible to make going to another wooting layer a toggle isntead of having to hold

[polar girder]

Hell yeah

Happier than a pig in shit

[polar girder]

Definitely plan to self lube

[calm pulsar]

self lube

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/chad-monke-gif-20835999

i never played it

but probably going to now since i need a game to entertain me for a bit till i upgrade

[wispy steppe]

Something colourful? Like purple and pink high quality

[wispy vine]

check out pbt fans they have high quality keycaps and I think a few purple and pink variants https://kbdfans.com/collections/keycaps

[little glen]

check out osume https://osume.com/collections/all-keycaps or GMK caps from various vendors you can find here: https://www.alexotos.com/keyboard-vendor-list/ The vendor i would recommend here is oblotzky industries https://oblotzky.industries/ because they have lots of selection and pictures right on the home page. Otherwise you can also check out pbtfans as mentioned above

god damn

Weeb tax is heavy

[little glen]

price like that, it better be full copper, gold plated

[harsh dove]

My copper keeb cost half that

Well was closer to $800 with the accessories I got

[rigid siren]

Does anyone know if the 80 HE and the premium cable set are compatible? I imagine that they are but just want to double check

[calm pulsar]

they are, if you mean the wooting cable

[rigid siren]

Yea the premium one from wootings website

[cyan lark]

Welcome back from the study hole, Cam

[tropic urchin]

Yeah get whichever color looks good, if you haven’t gotten yours yet should come with a default color one

[rigid siren]

I have the 60 and rocking the stealth version atm

Really want to get another connector so I just unplug and swap between the two as I please

My keyboard on Thursday

[tulip rapids]

you got benom?

[tropic urchin]

Yes, but PP plate for 80HE

Hoping PP plate completes the Marbly build

all the cool kids have a venom😎

[tropic urchin]

Then I can pay homage to the goat Cam

[tulip rapids]

i want to try out venom and rainy75

[calm pulsar]

rainy75 seems quite close to a 80he in terms of overall look and layout, maybe try a 60% 7u venom

so you get something diff compared to your wooting

thats just my thinking ofc

if you're getting a second board might as well be something entirely different

[tropic urchin]

@harsh dove tribute to the PP fluxies original testing 👌🏼

[calm pulsar]

rich coming from me given I had 4 60% pcbs at one point, 2 wootings and 2 venoms😂

yeah you right

thx for looking out cuh

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitten-handshake-deal-agree-gif-7134721403924803840

[tropic urchin]

Ye can vouch get 7u

Then you’ll be mad when you go back it’s not 7u

🤣

[harsh dove]

7u my beloved

[tropic urchin]

7u 80HE would be perfection

And maybe smaller right shift

[calm pulsar]

might be complicated to deal with keys on the right side of the spacebar in its layout I think

[tropic urchin]

Those keys don’t exist anyway so it’s fine

[calm pulsar]

like those old keyboards in stalker with spacebar only

[calm pulsar]

@tropic urchin you can try a similar colored number row with your set too

[tropic urchin]

Yeah I’m gonna try to do something like that for numbers

Then try to taper the other rows too

It took me 3-4 tries to perfect lazurite so I’m expecting a few tries with more color complexity changing

Might look better with 50/50 split

[calm pulsar]

btw @harsh dove have you seen Geon made new thingies to alternate the mounting in the frog mini, called Keysnap

really want to try em

compare to tadpoles

[tulip rapids]

how would one start a venom build?

https://tenor.com/view/venom-tom-hardy-marvel-rage-antihero-gif-11732259

[calm pulsar]

if you're getting 7u venom, you need a 7u plate, geon sells fr4 and alu

then you need a compatible case, which could be almost any cases working with a 60he wooting, but one of the nicest would be frog leggera

venom can work with frog leggera G, gummy mount version, and you would use it with a dauthgerboard that is included with the case

[fluid ravine]

carbon feeber

and cooper

[calm pulsar]

ah yeah theres more materials for these

[uneven cradle]

Hot 🔥

[tulip rapids]

yeah i want to try out 7u

i'll do more research and come back when i have more questions

i would get the frog leggera case

havent decided what colour though

black looks nice

[calm pulsar]

yeah in that case frog leggera g, venom 7u and a compatible venom 7u plate is a nice package that you can get from geon fully, or aliexpress as an alternative

[tulip rapids]

i see theres mx pcb and regular 60he

[calm pulsar]

you mean venom? yeah there's an mx venom too

[tulip rapids]

yeah

im looking on geon website right now

im running a pc plate from wooting on my tofu build. What plate do you recommend for the venom 7u

[calm pulsar]

im a fan of fr4 for my frog, but its not leggera, so maybe @fluid ravine can advise

[tulip rapids]

is fr4 plate harder than steel plate?

[calm pulsar]

it's also more of a dense plate, but not as hard as steel

I'd say it is probably the softest sounding while still being on harder end like alu or carbon fiber

[tulip rapids]

thank you giga chad arc

🌹

[polar girder]

Is a copper plate cool?

[polar girder]

Fr4 softer than alu but still hard?

Do i need more plates??

[calm pulsar]

imo it's softer on sound, but in terms of how easy it is to bend, its still in the ballpark of plates that are not plastic (alu, cf etc)

[polar girder]

Yeah I like stiff feel

What’s stiffest?

[calm pulsar]

I guess steel? not sure about copper, but maybe it's dense af too

[glacial wind]

Probably cf for pure stiffness

[fluid ravine]

CF

[tulip rapids]

Wait the venom pcb doesnt have rgb? How am i suppose to show off I'm a fortnite pro?

[chilly mural]

Mouse RGB

RGB Mousepad

[tulip rapids]

[tulip rapids]

i been watching some videos and im wondering why people are replacing the wooting module for the venom module

is it just because of 8kHz polling rate?

[glacial wind]

mostly format more than anything else

the mech enthusiast crowd like the tsangan layout a lot

[calm pulsar]

yeah 8khz is not really noticeable, but mainly it's the layout and the pcb having a daughterboard, which allows it to be installed in more cases

[tulip rapids]

ahhh i see

thank you extinguished gentlemen for answering my question🧐

[calm pulsar]

[tulip rapids]

[calm pulsar]

[tulip rapids]

yeah you right

im been debating which version of the set to get regular or katakana version

https://tenor.com/view/hmmm-thinking-batman-gif-6153870554148391864

[steady halo]

go for benom

buy benom

benom supremacy

[tulip rapids]

feel like the katakana is nice but theres so much going on that maybe regular looks better. Decisions... Decisions🤔

[steady halo]

i prefer the regular looks

[tulip rapids]

benom

[steady halo]

since the font is too thick for kata

@tulip rapids wanna see my benom?
