The Pro X2 Superstrike lol

#

So induction mice

robust siren

hell no

quasi hinge
#

You planning on getting one? Or waiting for the others?

haughty shore
#

is it just me or am I the only one that keeps playing with the spacebar until it sounds perfect

#

Spent the entire day tinkering it and idk if I can make it any better

thorn zealot
#

and if i want to change the sound of the space to match the rest of the board i swap switches

I like the sound of the click on the superstike at least

I find it too heavy after using the beast x

Tech is cool 30ms of saved latency I doubt that

robust siren

i hate my superlights carstare

quasi hinge

young viper
#

Yeah, annoying af click... But Logitech student discount so likee

quasi hinge
#

If you add up each component, it adds up

#

The missing piece is an induction mouse, my PC’s latency cannot get any lower

sly palm
quasi hinge
#

Take it with a grain of salt

#

But from the cpu, to the ram to the storage were all chosen for latency

quasi hinge
#

I even stuck with ddr4 because I can achieve sub 8ns in gear 1

uneven cradle
#

It's not passing the eye test how much space do you have on a normal mouse between it not being clicked and being clicked

quasi hinge
#

You need to try it

uneven cradle
#

Na Wooting has 4mm of movement range a mouse has what

quasi hinge
#

After wooting, there was no going back

quasi hinge
uneven cradle
#

Yeah and you're on a hair trigger already

quasi hinge
#

Ill make gentleman’s bet that everyone will transition

#

Eventually as the market matures

uneven cradle
#

It's not like Wooting where it is something needs to be analogue either you turn on or off all that matters is the initial click

quasi hinge
#

We shall see sir

#

Not sure if I will get the first release but I am watching closely…

As the top YT comment said:

"Gonna wait for the 30 gram chinesium"

glacial wind
#

Yeah I’m mostly not sure which games even benefit from release click latency jumps

uneven cradle
#

If you cared about it you would have had a op18k already knightShrug
It also helps eliminate that physical latency

lyric nimbus
#

wtf is -1.3ms

lyric nimbus
#

does it like

#

read my brain

uneven cradle
quasi hinge
chilly mural
haughty shore
#

How

#

-1.3??

#

so it predicts the click for you?!

glacial wind
#

Isn’t it all about the release

quasi hinge
#

They squabble about design and weight

#

But they are all genuinely interested in the tech, they all say you ā€˜just need to try to understand’

#

And so I will

sacred elm
#

I don't think it matters that much, it's not like mech keyboards where you had to press 2mm to actuate a key. Most mice have almost no pretravel nowadays and very light clicks

quasi hinge
#

My 2 mice are looking at me concerned rn lol

glacial wind
#

I mean the technology itself doesn’t claim faster latency though

#

It just reduces time IF you have more travel, but good mice already reduce travel to as low as possible

#

So the only real gain is if you have a mouse with bad amount of pretravel

polar girder
#

I want an Optane

#

Yeah I want a g-wolves HE mouse now lol

quasi hinge
#

Opening programs, whatever is instant

quasi hinge
#

Im not advocating but the tech looks promising, will wait for more reviews and im sure people here will come in and chime in also

#

Once they have them

glacial wind
#

yeah but I mean regardless of it all that is the promise of the technology

#

It just eliminates pre travel if you have a lot of pretravel

quasi hinge
#

For instance even on my beast x, there is still a click. If I could remove that I would

glacial wind
#

it’s neat I guess for people who have mice with lots of pretravel

quasi hinge
#

I want to breath on it and have it actuate haha

sacred elm
#

beastx has one of the nicest clicks and very small pretravel, I don't think superstrike feels as good

uneven cradle
#

Didn't boardzy also swap out his venom with a gt60 saying the latency was way better, not sure if trust his opinion on latency

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

Eh I doubt it

sacred elm
glacial wind
#

This is definitely not a wooting event

quasi hinge
#

But again, grain of salt

sacred elm
#

well now he's converted to 60he v2 split

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

I’m sure other mice will adopt the technology eventually but the gain isn’t really much

quasi hinge
#

Im sure it will be standard, give it a year or 2

glacial wind
#

It’s just a nice quality of life thing but there’s not much gain in actual reponse/latency imo

quasi hinge
#

Early adopters move in, if tech is proven then the herd follow

quasi hinge
#

Have you seen the early review videos?

fringe quarry
#

i like it :)

glacial wind
#

Yes and all the claims are just that it reduces click activation

#

But look at the stats claimed

#

It’s 0.65mm

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

So if you have 0.65 already then the gain is not there

quasi hinge
#

Wait for the Chinese reverse engineers

fringe quarry
glacial wind
#

I’m not saying it’s not neat or that people won’t do the same, but that the max possible gain from this technology is fairly small

fringe quarry
#

may sound long coming from keyboards

glacial wind
#

Because 0.65mm is already an incredibly small amount of movement

quasi hinge
#

But maybe not the first release

glacial wind
#

The 30ms claim is also logitechs own test vs generic random mouse

#

Which claimed to be a result of just click distance reduction

#

So if your click distance is the same on mx you’re not getting the benefits

fringe quarry
#

was someone here at the logitech event

#

they did live test against deathadder v4 pro there

glacial wind
#

I think it’ll be neat but you’d drastically not use it at its max setting

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

Kind of like technically using 0.01mm actuation is faster than 0.3mm yet most pros still use 0.3-0.5

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

you enter realm of consistency issues

fringe quarry
#

I could try comparing the actuation "distance" of normal superlight 2 vs superstrike on lowest setting tomorrow

glacial wind
#

I mean more power to you since you want to min max your latency but if you had a gun to my head and asked me to bet on if people perform better in lowest settings or not I’d bet on not

#

sometimes lower latency is worse consistency

quasi hinge
#

Just not on all keys

glacial wind
#

I view it a lot like when they tested pro players with mousepads

#

Even the ones who claimed a specific mousepad speed worked for them, they still performed better in pads with speeds more suited for their games

quasi hinge
#

Mousepads are more subjective

glacial wind
#

we’ll agree to disagree because I can see you just want lowest latency and that’s fine

quasi hinge
#

Low latency is measurable, i get higher 1% lows snd zero stutters with a locked frame-rate

fringe quarry
#

it will sell well for people living together with others while having thin walls dogekek

quasi hinge
#

I could argue all day with you on mousepads

#

There are no numbers

glacial wind
glacial wind
#

no one is debating lower = lower. It’s mostly if whether lower actuation = better for every situation which I think it does not

#

if people want to use crazy low settings and believe it works for them then go for it, but theoretically there is always a limit to how low is too low

lyric nimbus
#

0.00000000000001mm actuation

quasi hinge
#

For this specific mouse, there is also the click factor

lyric nimbus
#

actuates at the gust of wind

quasi hinge
#

There will be more coming out

fringe quarry

chinese copies gonna have wild settings

Superlight sucks for fingertip

fringe quarry
glacial wind
#

it’s fine for average joe claw grip but god awful for fingertip

uneven cradle
#

People were still using zowie mice with like 15ms of click latency until very recently

quasi hinge
sly palm
fringe quarry
#

lowkey fingertip grip a suboptimal grip

#

but i dont wanna discuss that

glacial wind
#

I think only people who think that are non native fingertip people

quasi hinge
quasi hinge
#

A lot of this is subjective

glacial wind
#

Mostly people who never fingertip find it super awkward and unsteady, so I can understand that sentiment if they just suck at the grip

fringe quarry
#

i aint gonna comment

Id like to get your thoughts on it

fringe quarry

I like it for now

#

not enough gameplay experience yet

What about the ā€˜clicks’

maybe it will drop in price in my return window carstare

#

although i wanna switch out skates

glacial wind
#

Isn’t the tech heavily patented?

fringe quarry
#

hard decision

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

Outside of Chinese brands the western brands probably can’t do it for awhile until they get a way around patents

fringe quarry
#

something gotta research that

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

It’s not so much reverse engineer

#

I mean that western brands can’t sell it

quasi hinge
#

They will make it better

fringe quarry
#

ye just open up the mouse lol

glacial wind
#

The Chinese clones can but the western brands can’t sell it due to patents

quasi hinge
#

Its made in China lol I know

#

They have the plants

glacial wind
#

Yeah but made in China doesn’t matter

quasi hinge
#

They make everything

#

Mostly

glacial wind
#

It’s the fact that razer can’t just break patent that is owned by Logitech until they find a design change around it

#

A wlmouse or something can because they don’t care about following international laws

#

But razer and big brands have to follow patent laws

fringe quarry
#

It will be the mainstream option definitely

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

I mean everything though not just razer.

fringe quarry
#

has this destroyed plans for #wootingmouse

glacial wind
#

Pulsar, finalmouse etc every big brand has to find a way around the patent

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

well the thing is copying it is easy

#

I’m sure there will be 100 Chinese brands who rip it off quickly

#

However the big brands can’t do that as easily and have to prove a design change

quasi hinge
#

WL mouse could just make a new line of mice with this tech and boom

fringe quarry
#

but these dont sell well enough for logitech to really care

glacial wind
#

Yeah wlmouse and such like I said can do it because they’ll just break the law

#

But big brands with western fronts can’t do it

#

like if pulsar tried to just copy paste it their US division would get wrecked

#

wlmouse doesn’t have to worry about that because they’ll operate solely in China and ship from China only

sacred elm
quasi hinge
#

It kills anything for me from them

fringe quarry
#

can logitech get wlmouse and others get banned from western retailers like Maxgaming?

#

also wlmouse is stocked in EU warehouses and such

quasi hinge
#

I will not let razer software on my pc

There’s plenty of loopholes for Chinese companies to jump around if they don’t actually have a western entity

But that’s just me

sacred elm
fringe quarry
glacial wind
#

I think they don’t care that much about western market

#

If you’ve seen Chinese market numbers you’ll get why lol

quasi hinge
#

Their market is big enough

#

You see them here in asia too

#

WL right next to logitech in stores here

glacial wind
#

I’ve heard of hobby shops in China that sell thousands of wootings a month

#

Just random shops

fringe quarry
glacial wind
#

The scale of China market vs western is on a different level

polar girder
quasi hinge
fringe quarry
#

ideally youd copy the product and only sell it in ike china lol

polar girder
#

Gid damn

#

As you should

#

Nice

glacial wind
#

Like single shops will do things like order and sell $500k of a random mouse that westerners barely know about

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

The Chinese market massively dwarfs a lot of places

glacial wind
polar girder
#

Did you buy it new or second hand

fringe quarry
polar girder
#

I’ve seen a lot of eBay deals

chilly mural
#

I want em to have their store here rather than through taobao

glacial wind
#

Like for example wuques switch sales numbers in China

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

It dwarfed all the switches they sell elsewhere lol

quasi hinge
#

I was able to buy 2

#

Guy pulled them from a test server, fantastic deal

#

Both used under 20 hours

glacial wind
#

I do think the tech is neat though and eventually will lead to more consistent clicks for everyone

quasi hinge
#

Basically zero writes

glacial wind
#

But it will take a bunch of time for brands to copy it without breaking patents

fringe quarry
#

And logitech also would be dumb as hell not patenting it

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

I assume it’s already surrounded by a bunch of patents

I feel like a kid ordering all this crap from China. My wife got laid off from her job on Friday, the company she worked for put a blanket "No one in the household can order stuff directly from China even on personal time." Well now I can and I am. I ordered a GT-80, the WS Flux (Deep Clacky), and the KeyTok Nova in the past 24 hours. Now to hurry up and wait.

@polar girder also do a clean install of windows if you get an optane drive. If you get an intel branded one, I can send you the original driver (p5800x) for it that someone shared with me on level 1 tech forums. Replaces the standard windows nvme driver. Just pm me for any questions.

#

And the p5800x is the only one worth getting. Even 400GBs is good for windows then install games on a secondary m.2

#

But it is night and day difference

Gen 5 m.2s are overrated and get too hot unless you do video editing etc

u have the 60he

friction fit is silicon only

glacial wind
# quasi hinge Change is coming

yeah i've seen that already. Like i said i think the tech is alright, maybe a small benefit depending on how much pre-travel you have

#

more beneficial the more pre-travel current mouse has, and less beneficial the tighter/less pre-travel your mouse has

#

i see it more as neat consistency in being able to get all mice to say 0.1mm or whatever you want instead of having to rely on manu to make sure the pre-travel is low

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

that's doable for sure

#

with china style of making things. it probably won't be super polished at first though

potent tundra
#

Am I doing smt wrong? Cuz when i try and put the friction fit inside it just falls out

glacial wind
#

did you change something? and what's the case?

potent tundra
glacial wind
#

and you took the 60he v2 module and just placed it in i assume?

potent tundra
glacial wind
#

i assume you have a v2?

#

well then you need a friction fit layer if you don't already have it

#

60he v1 did not come standard with friction fit

#

or you can tray mount it with screws instead

potent tundra
glacial wind
#

yeah, friction fit only friction fits if you have the friction fit pad. otherwise you can just mount via tray mount instead, which is the 4 screws

potent tundra
#

Yea I have the pad

glacial wind
#

you swapped your 60he v1 to the friction fit pad?

potent tundra
#

Oh wait sorry I think I'm supposed to enter the switches in first...

#

I didn't add the switches yet

glacial wind
#

well switches can come later, but you need the friction fit pad installed first

#

do you have that installed?

potent tundra
glacial wind
#

you had to take your board apart and swap the layer to the friction fit layer

#

then screw it back together

potent tundra
#

Yea

#

Im doing that rn

#

But the friction fit kinda just falls

glacial wind
#

that doesn't sound right, it should fit quite snug

#

you followed the tutorial to swap the whole layer?

potent tundra
#

Do I try after adding the switches and stabs first

glacial wind
#

wait...

#

how have you installed and screwed in the friction fit layer without installing the stabs?

#

you can't do that later

ionic breach
#

u got a pic?

glacial wind
#

well then you haven't followed the tutorial, please do the entire tutorial first

do the entire friction fit tutorial and only then try to put it in

I assume I have to put in everything?

yeah the entire module has to be assembled just like the tutorial

I'm using this one rn

#

But maybe I missed him saying the entire thing had to be assembled

glacial wind
#

okay. basically the entire process is same as optimum case here except with a tofu case instead

#

so just take it step by step exactly like the guide

potent tundra
#

Ok

#

I'm adding the switches rn then I'll do the next step

potent tundra
broken notch
#

See through

#

The clear "pane"

potent tundra
#

Like the one with the crown?

ionic breach
#

yea

broken notch
#

Uh, basically one is more clear than the other

glacial wind
#

the side with the clear hole thing

#

that goes on top

potent tundra
#

I think that's the crown side

ionic breach
#

it is

#

ye

glacial wind
#

i'm a bit confused though at how you're doing the switches before screwing the module together

#

i feel like some steps got missed somewhere

broken notch
#

I know this

#

It's called adhd, I have it too

sacred lodge
#

yo do plates make a big difference?

#

i just looked at a sound comparison and they sound very similar

potent tundra
#

And then put the friction fit on

#

And then screw it in the pcb?

#

Or am I missing smt

glacial wind
#

in the tutorial sander has the switches in already because he's swapping friction fit in for a fully built keyboard already

#

but you don't need to do the switches before everything else, that can be done last if you want

amber dagger
#

is wooting planning on making a pet film for 60he?

glacial wind
#

separately? Not planned right now to sell it separately

lusty river
#

hey is it possible to get a FR4 plate for my wooting 60he+? (iso layout, if that matters) thank you!

amber dagger
glacial wind
#

not officially, unless you find some from 3rd party sellers

#

tape mod you can easily do yourself though, it doesn't have to be fitted

#

it's literally just getting the right type of tape and doing a few strips on bottom of your pcb

amber dagger
#

do i need to cut out parts to not damage electrical things

old aurora
#

what keyboard mods can i do that are cheap and affordable

austere creek
#

tape mod

old aurora
#

alr did

#

what else

austere creek
#

idk if people still shove tape into their stabilizers

old aurora
#

oh ok

#

do i swap out my lekkar tikken switches for the squashy boy switches?

regal patio
#

Those sound very clicky on his sound test

#

Also they are a budget switch

#

I would never pick it over a DC flux, UFO or the nova's

broken notch

(ufo ufo ufo)

old aurora

wooting mouse when

regal patio
old aurora
#

Ya

regal patio
#

Kinda like those switches on squashe's sound test

#

That's what I mean

old aurora
#

Is that a bad thing?

regal patio
#

Similar to the Gateron jade delta

#

Depends

#

How you look at clicky sound

old aurora
#

Is it a big difference from the lekmar tikken

regal patio
#

They are smooth

old aurora
#

Lekkar

regal patio
#

Never tried either of those

#

The travel distance is way shorter

#

Tickens are fine imo

#

For a stock/cheap switch they are good

#

Smooth and great for gaming

#

They only don't sound that great

tropic urchin
# old aurora Is that a bad thing?

Nothing is inherently bad aside from lessening accuracy (by putting orings in your switches or using switch foam which acts as a barrier btwn switch and PCB), but everything is personal preference for sound/feel. most ppl typically don’t like the MX blue clicky style, so you’ll see alot of negativity towards clicky switch sound from that

old aurora
#

Ok

tropic urchin
#

The TL;DR is you gotta try a few things before you’ll know/pinpoint most of your preferences if you don’t know already

crystal rose
#

im tryna design custom keycaps

#

is this good?

tropic urchin
#

If you’re going for a custom color gradient I like it

#

Think I’m more partial starting left to right vs right to left

crystal rose
#

i was planning on getting like posca markers and adding dots and custom cool font, i was gonna make it space themed

ionic breach
#

i prefer an in to out/out to in

#

then a directional one

broken notch
crystal rose
#

anyways

broken notch
#

I know exactly what posca markers are

crystal rose
#

this is a strap i was gonna pair with it

broken notch
#

They will wear off.

crystal rose
broken notch
#

Anything you touch that isn't like fused into the caps, will wear off due to friction and finger oils

#

I'd suggest yuzukeys or goblintechkeys for custom caps

#

They will last much much better

#

And you get to design in illustrator/photoshop

potent tundra
#

I modded my kb and everything sounds great, but the spacebar is loud what do I do?

tropic urchin
potent tundra
glacial wind
#

wait this is a great deal, wuque doubleshot pbt is $49

#

https://shop.wuquestudio.com/collections/keycaps they're doing some sort of lunar new year sale. I only see their sets go this low maybe during black friday

Wuque Studio

Wuque Studio was found with the purpose of sharing our design and passion for custom keyboard community.

#

and most of their sets come with the rare 1.25u spacebar profile key

tropic urchin
glacial wind
#

good luck with that lol, i think those are going to be super pricy

tropic urchin
glacial wind
#

hrm i might pick up a set of doubleshot pbt bow

tropic urchin
#

It’s like they’d rather the 7 whales buy it retail than pricing it competitively where more ppl will give it a shot

glacial wind
#

good bow set is always handy to have, especially with 1.25u profile

#

man too many sales. i was already planning on buying gmk black snail in the geon sale

glossy pagoda
#

i dont need this i dont need this i dont need this

potent tundra
#

so how do i fix the spacebar? its loud even with foam

glacial wind
#

there isn't really a 100% fix

#

it's always slightly different

#

you embrace the sound difference

potent tundra
#

it sounds like really loud and metally ig

#

so theres no way for it to sound different?

ionic breach
#

u can with different switches

#

thats the most effective

potent tundra
ionic breach
#

ya but space bar is different

potent tundra
#

its only the spacebar that sounds like really really loud

ionic breach
#

it sends the most vibrations to the case and is also hollow

potent tundra
#

would lubing my stock stabs make it sound different

ionic breach
#

u techincally could just use a silent switch or even a dome switch if u want

potent tundra
#

is my key cap the issue or its just the switch

#

or smt else

ionic breach
#

but its not why the space sounds different

potent tundra
ionic breach
#

its just a spacebar thing, not because of an spoiled keycap or switch

potent tundra
#

dumb spacebar

stoic ocean
#

Hey, I don't know where else to ask, so I'm asking you. I'm about to buy the Gehirn60 and I don't know if I should get an additional USB-C extender.

ionic breach
#

but swapping keycaps and switches can make it sound less loud

broken notch
#

The solution for the spacebar is simple;

#

Get a split spacebar

ionic breach
#

its techincally a mounting issue if ur blaming a component

#

sry wrong reply

ionic breach
#

but u definetly need at least one for wooting

potent tundra
stoic ocean
ionic breach
potent tundra
#

for soumd reason the spacebar is only loud at the edge

#

in the middle its ok

# ionic breach the he kit?

I was going to get the barebone version with the plate for the Venom 60 HE, but in the end I'm planning to get one with the Rakka PCB and another with the MX.

ionic breach
#

could be a stab issue

potent tundra
ionic breach
#

as in

whats a metal ping

ionic breach

like high pitched metal

I've prepared my cart as you can see, but I'm wondering if the extender is really all that useful.

potent tundra
#

the stabs are very spinny

ionic breach
#

the kits should cover all

potent tundra
#

i kinda fixed it by dumping 2 tonnes of foam but how do i fix a stab problem

ionic breach
#

u need to open it up

#

and take out the stab wire

#

its kinda a lot of work for the first time

stoic ocean
#

Even though I've prepared my cart I'm still undecided about buying the Gambling Aged because the Anomaly with a set of keycaps can look really nice, just like the Pasteal and the Containment

Sorry, I sent the wrong message lol

#

It was the other person I wanted to reply to.

ionic breach
#

either way you need to disassemble to wooting, take out the wire and and tune it

potent tundra
#

like dissasemblie juft for the one wire

#

sheesh'

ionic breach
#

probably in that case u would want to relube it aswell

#

which is rough

#

doable tho, if you wanna spend some time and money

potent tundra
#

so what exactly would i need to do?

ionic breach
#

either that or mechamelon

ionic breach
#

disassemble the wooting

#

tune the wire

#

relube the wire

#

put it back and assemble

potent tundra
#

uhm

#

ok ill try that later

ionic breach
#

lol

potent tundra
#

new stabs are like 50 dollars for me

ionic breach
#

good luck, feel free to ask more, imma go back to studying

ionic breach
#

its usually like 20

#

max

potent tundra
#

for me any stab is 50

stoic ocean
ionic breach
#

aged just fits the theme

#

others are nice but its just not what the kb is designed for

#

cryo and mecha is cool tho

potent tundra

i put alot of foam and now its like alot better in the middle atleast

They deserve at least a little bit of love. Purely in theory, if someone already has them and doesn’t really care, then there’s no point in replacing themcarstare

@trail bane should i fraken switch with my hands carstare

Is there any workaround for stabs in v2? Have to buy 2 sets of stabs to change them all or any other solution? Stock stabs are ahh tbh, so much rattle and spacebar are misaligned

Which you would need to do anyway if you bought new stabs

i used to have sw knights in my 60he+ and im using yikbs in my rakka60 (7u spacebar is giving me hell)

little glen

i gotta say

#

my rgb looks great with the 🐓

#

clear top really makes the rgb pop with my non shine through caps

stray tiger
#

Yeah stock stabs are more than sufficient. For most people they are great out of the box but if you learn how to tune them then you can make any stabs sound amazing

A final question regarding the layout. Is it easy to find pbt key caps for ansi split? I don’t know if that is standard or special from wooting

glossy pagoda

The spacebar sizes are the same as ANSI right and left shift. Having those as extra keys in a set, with the right row shape, is less common but not uncommon

fluid ravine

It's giving glorious gpbt key cap sets with the color gradient transition

But I think the moon makes more sense with this palette in my opinion

Maybe saturn with a similar color palette but a lighter tone if that makes sense

Something like the purple all the way to the right of the image u sent

little glen

I was like "finally someone whoā€˜s mousepad is almost as dirty as mine" but then i was disappointed to discover that that was not the case

swift slate
#

this i kind of a dumb question but what are these that came with my durock stabs do they effect sound at all?

fluid ravine
#

Stabilizer pads are placed on top of the pcb under the stabilizer, they're used as a padding for the stabilizer when it bottoms out to reduce noise and prevent lube or grease to directly go ontop of the pcb (although that isn't a big problem where as the lube that leaks out will make your stabs feel more stick on bottom out)

#

Stabilizer shims are used for 1.2mm pcbs, you dont need these with 1.6mm standarized pcb's like wootings

#

Washers you used them when screwing in the stabs onto the pcb

swift slate
#

okay thanks for the clarification this is my first time building with upgraded stabs so just was curious if i need them or not

Hey guys, I’m about to order:
Wooting 60HE v2 Module (ANSI Split)
Optimum Case
Double-shot PBT set (split version)
Lekker Tikken Medium

Just wanna make sure — with this I can fully build it, right? Or am I missing anything important?

Few doubts:
The premium cable looks kinda short. If I plug it into my monitor, will I still get full 8K polling?
About the Friction Fit Pad — is the one they sell separately actually better than the one that comes with the module, or is the stock one good enough?
Do I need the Switch Toolkit or does it already include what I need?

Sorry, first time doing a custom build šŸ˜…
If anyone has a good setup video for this combo, I’d love a link.

#

the cable we can't guarantee that your monitor won't have issues with power because USB hubs can be hit or miss with whether they provide stable power or not

broken notch
#

I can personally recommend the hmlabs ZNEO powered hub

#

I'm sure there are others

But I have this specific one myself and it works perfectly

It's about 30 bucks on aliexpress

glacial wind
#

i can confirm i have tested that hub too and at least power wise it hasn't had any issues

I run my 60he v2, my mouse 2.4hz receiver and a bluetooth receiver off of it myself and they all function as expected

although i'm not sure if that fully solves his length issues or not. That's more of a sidequest than just using the default cable lol
