There's also options for getting CF plates from torontokeyboardman and aliexpress

#

The PC plate the wooting module comes with is ass imo

waxen pecan
#

Divinikey is the most economical for me

#

considering they ship locally

#

sadly they only sell sets of 4 2u wires, I could just buy the wires separately BUT spare stab housings dont sound bad knowing I will 100% loose some

#

I prefer FR4

uncut wolf
#

Ah, I wasn't aware. I thought it was like the 80HE

waxen pecan
#

I watched the keyboard man vid and the CF sound TOO pingy?

#

I cant explain it but its too pingy

waxen pecan
#

hey! I was close then

#

nice, my ears are sharp and tuned

uncut wolf
#

ugh I really wish FBB and NicePBT gave UK ISO support it's goddamn infuriating

gaunt trellis
#

Any idea where I can get a good keyboard strap

waxen pecan
#

I found a really nice one on Aliexpress, well quite a few but yeah

gaunt trellis
#

Thanks!

#

Now I just need to find one to match

waxen pecan
#

I dont think you can strap one of these on the 80he

#

those ones are meant for the little tab on the 60he and v2, unless the 80he case you're using has space for one?

sly palm
waxen pecan
#

ooh, wouldnt the board be too heavy for a strap?

#

intresting though!

#

In that case go with a feathery one, those always look great lmao

sly palm
#

the strap is just aesthetic, not recommended for actual use

glacial wind
#

he didn't realise our switch selector is actually better it seems

#

he said wuques switch selector was better, despite ours having much more options, so I assume he never checked to compare our latest firmware

#

Why does Hippyo have such a hate boner for the wooting?

#

back when I was debating a pre-order it seems like he keeps mixing up who the keyboard is targetting?

#

he dosent get the appeal of an analog keyboard and features like rapid trigger and gamepad emulation

#

Honest to god was close to convincing me to just give up and get a rain 75

tropic urchin

#

MX andy?

sacred elm
tropic urchin
#

hes not a gamer, nor should his opinions on gaming really be taken seriously

waxen pecan
#

but yea thats what I got from him, he dosent seem to get HE so he just shits on the idea

tropic urchin
#

its like getting subpar chicken at a steakhouse

waxen pecan
#

He ALSO has a habit of supporting Chinese manuf

#

theres nothing wrong with that and most manuf are chinese based but Ive noticed that

sly palm
waxen pecan
#

explains his keychron love lmao

#

beyond his videos I hate how he's just mr.beat for keyboards

waxen pecan
#

"I put cat shit in my keyboard, and it sounds like HEAVEN?"

#

no but Im glad I wasnt the only one who felt that he was fundementally not getting the idea behind it for all his wooting reviews

#

like linux tech tips with the steam controller

tropic urchin
waxen pecan
#

what did he do?

#

I ordered my wootings just on the website and never kept up with anything until recently, then I found out about this discord

tropic urchin
#

its an old video

waxen pecan
#

AND that delayed the launch? lmao

#

yea I remember that video

#

he got me into keyboards with a keychron Q1 max

tropic urchin
#

wasnt just him, but he was the first light on it

waxen pecan
#

Ahh! well yea thats kind valid

tropic urchin
#

he wasnt the same since he showed his face reveal now its really over the top

waxen pecan
#

I only ever ordered plastic so I never noticed I guess

sly palm
waxen pecan
#

He's also the reason people keep saying the Fun60TMR is a wooting killer

#

hyped it up to NO end

tropic urchin
#

cro needs to put the kinetic sand back in the box

chilly mural
sly palm
waxen pecan
#

SwitchySideeye I stopped trusting him when he pointed out the wooting software was overrated and the Fun60 software was FINE

#

whats the point of a HE keyboard if you dont have good and reliable software support lmao

chilly mural
#

best test for a long term keyboard is to see if they add knob function after wooting does it

waxen pecan
#

anyone can just make a 8k pcb and call it a day

waxen pecan
tropic urchin
waxen pecan
#

its easier to just a daughter board in the case

tropic urchin
#

hes wearing a gamer cosplay skin suit without being one

chilly mural
#

not a $100 case

waxen pecan
glacial wind
#

he's not really a reviewer, more so an overviewer who decides his script ahead of time

tropic urchin
waxen pecan
#

its all the sand he keeps putting in his keyboards

tropic urchin
#

OH

waxen pecan
#

its course, rough and gets everywhere

tropic urchin
#

maybe he uses that lead tape that sno was talking about a while ago

glacial wind
#

he has a formula which is evident for each video, where he has a specific topic he wants to focus on and hit on, so he's not really reviewing but just talking about a keyboard in relation to whatever his actual point is

tropic urchin
#

that would make alot of sense

waxen pecan
# chilly mural not a $100 case

I wouldnt put it past someone like Mchoose to just make a cheap alu case that has a JWST cable with a knob integrated. Granted im not into PCB design so Id take your word on it

waxen pecan
tropic urchin
#

real

waxen pecan
#

and irrisponsible lmao, his audience is largely kids

#

he's gonna bring back lead poisoning

sly palm
#

sno, how is your tmr masterpiece going btw? SwitchySideeye

tropic urchin
#

he wasnt promoting it but i think that was mainly just a keyboard twitter thing

#

but i wouldnt be surprised if he does secretly

glacial wind
#

almost done, finishing touches tomorrow then it'll just be waiting for final graphics from our graphic designer

waxen pecan
#

if you put it that way yea, he forms an opinion prior and just builds to it

glacial wind
#

honestly hipyo is a top tier youtuber, as much as I hate his bad reviews, he's top tier when it comes to understanding formula and channel growth

#

his shorts highly link towards his long form content, so he grows via short form > builds longer term/revenue via long form that is longer versions of his short form content, and prints money from sponsorships

#

and his long form is all very specific formula and the same script and pacing that is proven to work for his audience

#

i just dislike that too many people don't realise he's an entertainer and not really a good reviewer

#

a lot of folks these days don't separate entertainment from good information, which is unfortunate

sly palm
#

I just take the information I see rather than listening to hipyo's opinion nodding

waxen pecan
#

He's modern day LTT

#

well in the keyboard space

glacial wind
#

nah LTT i think makes an effort even if they get things wrong to be fair

waxen pecan
#

ever since Emily left Ive felt a downgrade in actual technical aspects of a review

#

maybe thats just bias, I loved Emily's apperances

glacial wind
#

although they don't always get things right and have bad videos regarding us in the past, in general i think they try to make an effort to be right or at least think they're right when they make the videos

#

whereas a lot of the entertainment reviewers don't care about being right

#

they just want to make an entertaining video with some point of theirs and don't care if it's objective or correct

#

for LTT i at least give them the benefit that they will get stuff wrong but i feel they often attempt or want it to be right initially

sly palm
#

I hope the tmr video includes a minecraft parkour or subwaysurfer video smile

glacial wind
#

like their early video on wooting 60he was totally off the mark and didn't understand HE technology at all, but that was more out of ignorance and not understanding the product than purposely trying to push the wrong narrative

#

I am really excited for that nodding

glacial wind
#

i do look forward to my vacation end of this month though, because writing the tmr blog hurt my brain

#

i had to take breaks every couple hours because the content was quite tricky to distill from technical info into normal speak

#

it's really easy to write a technical blog and really easy to write a more layman guide/overview but really tricky combining the two copywriting wise

#

the sensitivity stuff itself was a headache to figure out exactly how sensitivity applied and then try to make that not give other people a headache after i figured out what jereon and dominik were talking about

# wispy wharf hipyo is a joke lmao

i wouldn't say that, he has his preferences like everyone. He just doesn't really care about the benefits of rapid trigger and HE hates the chatter or magnetic switches, and much prefers board sound and feel of the board

#

though I feel he is massively downplaying analog keyboards and their real world benefits

#

it was bad in the beginning but i feel he is getting better when it comes to treating something as preference vs an objective review

wispy wharf

Wooting 60HE v2 vs WS Zoom64 HE?

queen otter

yeah today's video it seems like he put the thockier switches in the non wooting board to justify his position on wooting

"guys i ordered PCR and lekker switches, why does it sound bad"

#

oh gee

#

Not a fair comparison at all

#

Also you don't buy a PCB for sound xd

wispy wharf
#

pcb has like no effect on sound relatively

#

he should have kitted them out the same and come to the correct conclusion that the wooting is probably better for the same cost due to the software

get a sized switch plate for your switch boxes (maybe not with 84 slots)

by "accuracy", do you mean the steps the switch can detect?
so, if im understanding correctly, from your example, tikkens can detect any movement >= 0.02mm?

Hi everyone, I have some questions about my Wooting 80HE keyboard. I recently had it modified. I gave it to a friend to customize, and he replaced all the switches with a type not listed in the switch selector. I'd like to know if this affects the keyboard's performance, and if so, how significant the impact is. I hope you can answer... Sorry if I made any spelling mistakes Pwease

What does the 4mm travel distance mean in practice compared to most HE switches that are generally a bit shorter?

# marsh knoll Ufo -> diamond worth it?

They’re nice if you want a lighter switch, UFOs are high up there unless they dry up fast for you (factory lube), then it’ll take a while for you to open them up if you can (the meta looks to be taking a razor blade and getting it open)

So my AMD system started running about 20c hotter than usual a few weeks ago. My AIO cooler is 7yrs old and apparently dissipation on closed loop systems is a thing and 5-7yrs is the fairly common timeline for it to become a problem. Anyway, I spent about $300 this weekend and spent 6 hours rebuilding my rig only to find out a BIOS update I did a few weeks ago wiped out my PCO/OC/Undervolt settings and my saved profiles, so the system was running stock settings and that's why it was super hot lol.

Now certain switches SwitchyHeHe

sly palm
#

They are currently 1.02 per switch on WS because of promo if you haven't seen it yetsmile

humble surge
#

I bought it at the release hour :)

sly palm
#

Oh yea right, you mentioned itnodding

#

Forgot it

humble surge
#

not shipped yet sadly

wispy wharf
#

are novas any wobblier than flux switches?

sacred elm
#

No, most of those walled stem switches have same stability

wispy wharf
#

interesting

#

wouldn't the top wobble be dependent on the top out contact?

#

wonder if they will make a deep clacky diamond

sacred elm
wispy wharf
#

it's kind of regular clacky

sacred elm
#

No

#

It's like deep clacky flux but better

wispy wharf
#

i couldn't really tell much of a difference

#

they are so expensive

sacred elm
#

I think they will release PA12 bottom Diamond for muted switch enjoyers

wispy wharf
#

they will?

sacred elm
#

I'm just guessingsmile

wispy wharf
#

i hope the diamonds come down in price at some point

sacred elm
#

They are like $1/pc right now, no?

wispy wharf
#

they are over $1 each

cloud crane
#

Still expensive even at $1 imo

wispy wharf
#

keybay has 85 for $128

sacred elm
#

You can stack this

wispy wharf
#

it's even more expensive there

sacred elm
#

It's not

wispy wharf
sacred elm
#

Choose buy 3 get 5 option

wispy wharf
#

hmm

sacred elm
wispy wharf
#

that is crazy

#

ok so 72 is now $54

#

that is way more reasonable

#

i do not know why they are allowing this

#

maybe i wasted my money on these deep clacky before the diamonds released

sacred elm
#

This is for 80HE

ivory musk
#

Any recommendations for switches that sound quieter and better than the stock 60he+ switches? I like how they feel/perform but the sound isn't the best

signal dagger
sacred elm
#

Lekker Tikken budget option

wispy wharf
#

the cullinan seem more stable than the fluxes

tulip rapids
#

yes

#

buy the diamonds

tropic urchin

#

we dont save money in this chat

wispy wharf
#

longer spring type shit

tulip rapids
#

consooooome

wispy wharf
#

why must hobbies be more expensive as they become more popular

#

so the cullinan are probably more stable than the nova right?

tulip rapids

Just want better sound than the stock switches but dont want to change the feel of the press

tulip rapids
#

bro said "ight this shit confusing so ima shoot myself in the leg"

ivory musk
#

😂

wispy wharf
#

if money is no object get diamonds i guess

ivory musk
#

The rabbit hole is too deep

tulip rapids
#

if you can get them at a good price

wispy wharf
#

they are like 75c each now so yeah good price

tulip rapids
#

and see which switch you like for the price

tropic urchin
wispy wharf
#

previous top dog switch have them in my board

wispy wharf

type that again and ima scream in the general chit chat vc again

ivory musk
#

$140 for switches seems kinda scammy 🤔

oh brother

wispy wharf

my cat just tried to slit my throat

tulip rapids

like when ash turned 10 and got pikachu

sacred elm
#

Raws aren't that good, especially if you prefer quieter switches

wispy wharf
#

get owlabs and deafen yourself

tulip rapids
#

ahhh so your cat received the message

ivory musk
#

I've been getting all my advice for switches from chatgpt and you guys are giving me opposite advice smile

wispy wharf

i maintain i did nothing wrong

if you haven't figured that out by now might as well actually shoot yourself in the leg

wispy wharf

i think goku hates me now

#

deep clack fluxes was worth every cent

#

and ocean hearts are really nice but expensive

wispy wharf
#

why not cullinan

tulip rapids
#

soon nadia....soon

ivory musk
wispy wharf
#

you are doing cullinans soon?

tulip rapids
#

cf + cullinans on 60he+

wispy wharf
#

you are paying again for a slightly different switch

#

if it's a new board i would understand

tulip rapids
#

when i decide to mod it in a couple of months

tulip rapids
tropic urchin
ivory musk
#

Alright question for you goku and varedis. Pink lotus flux, ocean heart diamond, or deep clack fluxes? If you had to choose one @tropic urchin @tulip rapids

tropic urchin
#

I’m biased towards ocean heart

sly palm
#

Did I hear jades? smile

tropic urchin
#

But that’s without knowing what you prefer

#

I also love 45g bottom out switches so diamonds are what I’ve wanted since the original flux came out

#

But pink lotus is a really great bet if you can get it cheap

wispy wharf
#

novas or diamonds for stability and thock?

ivory musk
#

Ive never bought custom switches. I like how my stock switches feel 60he+ but thats only because that's all I know. Ive only bought one keyboard and thats my 60he+ barely got into pc a little less than 2 years ago*

tropic urchin
wispy wharf
#

but are they as stable as diamonds

#

shafie thinks they will make a pa12 bottom diamond

tropic urchin
#

They should be within 95%

#

I’ve never used them but all walled stems are legit roughly the same

wispy wharf
#

5% can make a lot of difference when you have hyperacusis universalis

Stability will be roughly =, so depends on how much you’re willing to spend

#

All of those options are going to mog tikkens, raws and the rest non walled stems

#

You can also listen to them on the mod website Sno put together @ivory musk

#

I’d start there and see which you like

#

Oh nice 110 worked

#

Thank you

#

Part 1 done

#

You mentioned an FR4 aluminum plate

#

🤔 what is that

wispy wharf
#

that's two different plates

#

fr4 is what the pcb is made out of (fiberglass)

#

aluminum is aluminum

#

they are what the switches click into

tropic urchin
#

TL;DR I think you have a PC plate by default in your 60HE+, FR4 will be stiffer and give you a fuller bodied sound, while remaining somewhat neutral. Aluminum id use if you have a brighter switch (sounds dead with deeper switches)

thorn zealot
#

wheres tuanGPT

ivory musk
#

I plan on building a new keyboard at this point instead of swapping. Im alreasy in too deep. So I've got the pink lotus switches, and the he v2 pcb is aluminum so I should be good with that then 🤔

fluid ravine
tropic urchin
#

V2 case is aluminum, PCB is still fiberglass (FR4 material)

fluid ravine

what's the prompt

nvm brethren is a lost soul

fluid ravine

😂

#

Oh I understand just read the link you sent varedis thank you

tropic urchin
#

Will be impossible to know what you prefer without a couple of plates to try in front of you

#

But since you’re going for V2 now you’ll get FR4 by default

#

So that’ll be a good test

sacred elm
#

Which case are you getting @ivory musk

thorn zealot

#

Okay cool, will probably order an aluminum one if I don't feel satisfied. This feels like the tip of the iceberg

Does the switches affect latency or are they all good for gaming ?

little glen
#

No real impact on latency

#

Any switch released in like the past year will be stable enough that you dont need to worry about any of that either
