LETS GO OBAMUS
I don’t see how force break being a bad thing
It’s all metal and what not
I'ma just lube milky yellows and I should be good maybe stabs
it’s a fix to a flaw in the board
milky yellows sound good
Get 205g0
you should get them fr
Don’t spend like 40$ like I did on 3 different lubes
YOO
Gonna save this
my temps are at 66 now
MICE
i think i fixed it
NICE
not sure
Temporary fix at least
It'll hold you
How do you even manage that..
Lube is like 8$
You could Roblox even without a gpu
Hot keyboards cmd
can you mod an apex pro?
Send more
Some of you need some nice keebs
Since you have a tray mounted budget keyboard you can get cherry blacks and they’ll sound nice
I know I do
shut up jev
😜
if they’re both mx style
Mx style is basically universal
O
Holy sh
You just wanna make sure you get Mx style switches aka common mechanicals
lol

Hope I get good ones
hot
Yeah the V series is nice
Do be aware sound tests aren’t accurate representations
Especially since it doesn’t use a sound muting mounting system like gaskets
Yeah yeah we know
Are those caps or switches lol
?
But it’s a chance to use clack switches or pop switches without it being muted too much
Gasket mounting mutes and chances the sound of clack too much
yooo
Depending on the keyboard of course
What's that 70
Why would you say that then if it’s a case by case thing
70%??
That’s a 65%
It looks a bit bigger
Space65(?) EVA colorway
Link pcb still makes me confused
yeah
Dude has a factory in his room
This is objectively the greatest keyboard of all time
No
lol why
ahh yes
Phil get that keyboard
Ditch the alt and ESC
we can make em key combos
and the shift, enter, some letters
Hold the 0 for one sec then two then 3 for each key until you get 100
you could type every key with 1 key with some insane combos
LOL
gaming on 1 key
Howww
Someone did that I think
Most combinations
A 2 key keyboard
How do you even memorize everything
press once for 1
press twice for W
hold for short time for A
so on so on
he’s the creator
you just do
I imagine he’s well versed
Years of training
It’s perfect
I can barely remember material I go over in class for more than 5 minutes
Hold down the option key for a set amount of time and that set amount of time determines what the other two keys are
It would actually work
Yeah
idk which one to pick for the other keyboard
Damn I'm only gonna have 4h hours of sleep
go to sleep
y’all sleep?
nah
It's too late now
i slept in the plane
What keyboard
so my sleep schedule is messed up
the cat one
Throw it away
Kitty Kit 64
Those are good switches
Epomaker
cat keyboard?
Correct?
Clean but gmk be like 🤢
true
Glorious try to make a good keyboard
GMK is nice like dots
im imagining a cat keyboard but all the keys are covered in cat fur n stuff
Made from real fur!
That’s entirely preference
I don’t like red/blue sam but it’s not trash
Obama you should do keyboard reviews
Does it even sound good
To be fair thinking murder is alright is also preferable for people like Ted Bundy
Or is it just mushy
well i can't test it because i don't have keycaps yet
WOAHH WOAHHH
What switches does it use
Talk about apples and oranges..
Point is my preferences are all objectively correct
cream switches
Use that keyboard wtf
And those drop GMK is doodoo
Nk creams make me wanna scream
i don't have switches for it
What
it had a different layout
It uses nonstandard 64 key layout
Waiting a week for switches then they are wrong fit
1u shift is really odd
@glossy sandal https://monokei.co/monokei-x-tgr-singakbd
We've partnered with our friends, TGR and SINGAKBD to make high end mechanical keyboards more accessible for everyone.
Thoughts?
It seems to be a group buy
what about it
looks cool
Nice
purple
But group buy
I know
I want a purple and blueish keyboard
But recently it’s all been raffles
Like tfues case almost
Now we can have a chance to get a really nice keyboard
imagine winning a giveaway bro
That’s not what raffles are
imagine winning anything
Isn't it a give away though
B)
Nah it’s a draw
But they're giving it away
You get to have a chance to buy the board at retail
Keep in mind if you don’t buy it at retail they go for crazy prices on aftermarket
Even if you have the money the custom mechanical scene won’t let you buy it a lot of the time
Exactly
They're like you gotta own these 2 keyboards beforehand you must be a perfectionist
I hope not
Ferrari
You can buy whatever board you want
Ferrari
Just gotta have a chance to buy it
imagine
what keyboard are you getting?
I bought a razer viper ultimate today
I thought I said
hope I like the shape
niceee
Keychron v4 something
They are
Razer gear is mid imo
Picked mine up for 56$
W
Obamus when I get my keyboard I'll send you a video of type test okay
Razer mice are fine
And tell me what I need to do
nice
Every single mod
A lot of the mice hobbyist I’ve talked to recommend razer a lot
you ordered a fully assembled v4?
Oh I should get barebone?
every fortnite keyboard is the gk61
Do you wanna build it custom?
including me 😂
Of course I should god I'm dumb
Up to you
that’s my recommendation, you can pick out your own switches and keycaps
Yeah
Building it custom is more expensive btw
my first keyboard was the gk61
Keychron prebuilts aren’t bad but i like hyperglide blacks and minimalist keycaps
i saw a lubing station for not that much
Oh shit right keycaps too
If you already have separate switches just buy barebones
If you’re gonna lube the switches then you should get barebones a
I dont
the milky yellows?
I don't already have them
Oh
What id do is barebones + hyperglide blacks + random WOB keycap set from the supplier you get your switches from
Well you’re planning them so just get a barebones
Keycaps are gonna be a lot too though
this is heavily opinionated ^^^
https://www.amazon.com/Switch-Station-Acrylic-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B093PQQW4T/ref=sr_1_17?crid=1 @twilit flare comes with all these things (i think)
Product Information *Features: For those who want to modify the keyboard switch, this will be a perfect tool set. Because it contains the tools you need, especially this 33 Switch Lube Tester Station, because it can help you quickly lubricate 33 switches at a time, which is very convenient and ef...
Alr
Bro
Hyperglide blacks are a bit heavy tho
Blacks too heavy to be comfy imo, alpacas are where its at
Please don’t use stock hyperglides
I'm not a keyboard enthusiast not spending that much money
If you want the milky yellows are more likely to be satisfying
lol
He was gonna lube them remember
Lubed blacks sound so good
You're crazy
cherry springs are still horrid
But the KS3 are fine
This PCB is a meme 😁
Yeah swap them 😁
What are those
Have you bought anything yet Nos?
No but I got it planned
Where are you based
I wouldn’t buy specifically what obamus said
I'd understand why you'd use stock hg if you spring swapped
Us
Like use it for a few months and lube them
minimalist keycaps are his preference entirely
This is what I’d do
Ks3 milky is good starter switch
Oh damn that's expensive
cheap
Yeah no need to lube
Lube them and you'll discover the hobby
Btw here's the most tactile switch I know. Frankenswitch with moyu black housing and u4t boba stem
Send me money then phil
If you want something cheaper you could always get it preassembled dude
But you wanna say it's cheap and crap
Is that crp tulip?
"let me know if you need some money"
You can mod it, to be fair all lubed linears are basically the same
Nope
Meanwhile me, oh shit it's on sale
Yeah ig i should
That was in context of nitrotype idiot
I’m used to crp and got excited
Not usd
smh
Read
Oi @forest pebble
Lol
You know any decent deskmat sites
Gmk....
the mouse company?
Hmm ?
why do noobies hate gmk??
Varmilo dawn set, but thats an older vid, I use a modded Q1 atm
coz they don’t know quality
Obamus isn't a nooby bro
I'm not a noob, I dont like gmk
I wasn’t talking about him
I dunno, I've bought from a lot of different manufacturers
They think they can get away with getting a keychron and looking down on the Jane V2 supremacists
I just dislike the whole gb shit
novel key mousepads?
Well to me the gb side make sense for small designers
Noobies generally just dislike gmk because they’re spoon fed info about gbs being bad
Sure by now some are big
I'll have you know I recentered my keyboards stabilizer I'm no noob.
ooo jev you you should get the keyboard that is half
like it splits apart
those are neat
No bro
yes
I know, I just personally will NEVER wait over a year for a product I want
I will buy an in stock set I like
Facts pkopo1
Fair enough
Valid
dots
Lemme see
lol
A biip fan i see
Niceee
bruh
Am I the only who never liked dots
I don’t like dots
im going to get some clones of them ngl
I don’t like dogs
You saved yourself
Much prefer something like the uwu kits
But for those who don't know, GB's are not specifically a thing by GMK, it's a choice of how people run things in the community
Imagine it's just play doh
lol
True
You need a lot of upfront money if you wanted instock GMK sets
what foam should i get?
Small studios use gbs because it’s safe
group buys are a way that enthusiasts can easily make custom keyboards
PE foam
you can’t start a company like keychron if you just like keyboards
Ehhhh…
minecraft pe
For a business gb is great, for a consumer gb is annoying as fuck
And most small designers and I guess small studios wouldn't be afford to do it
Pocket edition foam
ez
Without gbs a lot of the stuff we have now wouldn’t be here
Disagree, without group buys we wouldn’t have small keyboard fans making custom keyboards
And it's that way because it used to be run by random peeps so they could get their sets and share it to others
Imo nowadays vendors are big enough to have extras
Exclusive keyboards are cool
oo i also want those mocha keycaps
Encourages people to build
Starbucks
Why are keycaps named with drinks or food
ALIEXPRESS 💀
let's go
Aliexpress in itself is alright, depends on what you buy and from what store
Plus refund when you get cucked works
Clones are immoral and just not a good buy
damm
Actually I have a mission for ya'll find me cool keycaps in nordic ISO that fit the setup, I'm sick of the super slippery gpbt caps
They always look goofy
Gotta spend that buck for quality
crp purple hangul r5
I'd say it's simple : don't buy super cheap pbt reverse dye sub, it's expensive to make as it's hard to do it right
Except when you can't reasonably get your hands on old, not in productions caps
Try washing your hands
Ig I'll keep the stock keycaps on the v4 and just mod the switches
oh wow it's 11
it’s still immoral lmao
i didn't keep track
What is
How?
If you want something nice, pbt dye sub is ok but you are limited in colors combo
Oh
It's 2am for me
i can't tell time
But beige sets are nice 😁
9am for me
W
I don't wanna wake up today bro
last day of school right?
That's not a w wtf
someone designed those keycaps, then someone in China stole that property. Even if the first product is unavailable supporting theft isn’t cool
Yes
lol
W
too attached to keyboards
It's not theft if the creator chooses to not make the set in-stock
get into headphones and you'll get no sleep
It's expensive
The creator made their money already
It’s not theft if the creator doesn’t wanna sell it?
Headphones I'm not worried about
But seriously, any other sets than the crp tulip? Those are out of stock
Lemme just enter a store and steal their cash register
If the sets are in stock, then sure. Clones are bad then
My brother comes today though so I'ma show him the keyboard and see what he thinks
i still need to buy those headphones
I mean it's like movies, if you want bootleg copies it's up to you imo
Not even literally the same principle
guys don’t you realize it’s just theft
People that buy clones can't afford the real one so to me it's fair enough
That time I got the bootleg Incredibles lmao
Which ones
Like I know it’s not as physical as a computer
dt 880
But it’s still theft to pirate stuff or buy copies of stuff
Literally what I am using
lol
If someone makes a copy of the mona lisa, is that theft? No. The original art is where it always was.
are they good?
I just have brainwavz leather pads on em
Are you okay
Theyre good ye
epico
Honestly I don't really care, i just want the nice quality one not the weird quality one bootleg from china 😁
Oh NVM I read that wrong

You wouldn't download a boom arm
Buy the keycaps from the sketchy dealer on the block
(I would)
I would 2x
Lmao
Nice
But what's bad is when the one doing the copy is claiming it's original (yeah fuck you Kalam)
Comfortable
hottt
I like dt990
Everyone has like a 4k phone camera in here damn
I mean by claiming, doing a close 1:1 copy
To me dt990 are too bright
I have limited space
Worn pads
too bright?
Just break them in
Need a new mousepad
same
Because it's lying to consumer and theft to brand and or market as original
Forget it bliv
maybe during this week ill clean my desk and try to make it look better
We got any colemak chads in here
wire management
W productivity
What’s colemak
i mean cable
My cables are messy asf
same
No like they are too bright man, the treble curve is too sharp for me and not enough mids or bass to compensate for it. Some people like it, I dont
lol
The desk is horrible for them it's not even on a wall
Yeah if you break them in they’re fine
yo that's me!
I had a pair for like 4 months
let's gooo
I'm there
we made it jev

Arne stio
what's that
nah
Meanwhile 
French spotted
Best keyboard here
Probably Quebec
Honestly it's good because I have '
No just french 😁
Proof 40% keyboards are the best
So good
It's 8:30 am
Not you
You know working and stuff
France moment
Obamus
Suomi
But y'all if from N/A
I don’t sleep
It's late
this man up at 0230

I am too lol
Nod
@pastel drift what if we both lube our keyboard switches at the same time
im down
Would be pro
lol
I bought an aftermarket board recently, it has unlubed cherry MX speed silvers in it 
You might have to wait for me tho lol
same
Lubing is one thing I hate about custom boards lol
Well I got 20 bucks the other day maybe I could use that for switches
Pay someone easy
I just pay my friend 20€ to do it lmao
It looks so painful but so worth it
20€ is slavery though 😁
I did it once myself, decided never again
I'm your friend, I'll do it rq
lol
Lol
Same
I mean objectively not that bad, need spring swap and lubed
I’m still gonna do it on my next keyboard
Like its so easy, but so god damn boring
I’ve lubed a couple hundred switches now
nah it’s painful
Listen to a podcast whole doing it
maybe crossed a thousand
it’s the easiest and most auto pilot thing ever
just watch something while you do it
I am the annoying one asking my friend to keep the original stem housing combo 😁
She doesn't like that kek
I can't say anything since I never lubed switches but I believe it's not THAT bad
Coming from someone who plays geometry dash dying into a wall for 3 hours straight
I do some myself though, it's quite long when I try to keep stem and housing together
Its just boring
True
Other wise I have boxes and split everything
Wait damnit I realized I need to buy a brush too for the lube
And lube all bottoms, then bag lube springs and then lube stems and install them
So that's $24 for switches then probably an extra $10 on lube and tools
Also do tops before hand but it's not necessary
Do you recommend any tutorials for it
Sometimes I just do rails and springs because I get bored
They all make it look difficult
Taehatypes lubing tutorial is good
Hell yeah
Stabs and all
Lube it up
Yee, however it's up to how you want the sound to be on the way back, though
Unless you’re overlubing your switches
hmm
Well it's mushy
Oh
But better be light with lube to begin with and
I think if it’s your first time lubing use less than you think you need to
See
Okay
On switches
Imo try on one switch first and see
Because it doesn't need to sound insanely good either lol
Okay
If it even makes a difference at all
Don’t skimp on lube for stabs though

it can rattle if you don’t have enough on there
It's a thing

LOOL THSt EMOJI
Actually good mod for topre though need experience
out here greasing up costar stabs
How much
Enough
2 decades
17 cent worth of experience
Too much

Well hopefully I get this done by next week
That's cracking me up
It's not worth decades, it's about someone who's done it multiple times and tried the right thing, but you could lube topre stuff yourself I guess
Yeah
I bought nitro on nitrotype instead lol

The better site

I’d say do them all yourself
I hope you will both have the same consistency and application 😁
You can really tell the first switch you lubed and the last one if it’s your first time
teaha types
First one will prob be overlubed
Definitely
but that’s part of learning
types
You’ll get better as you keep lubing
I just gotta figure out how much I gotta put on the brush for each switch then I'm good
who up lubing they switches
Yeah try on one switch before
I'm horrible at painting so idk how similar this is lol
I do, but also pay some peeps sometimes
Pay me
EU ?
let’s forget about shipping and customs 
It would cost more for you to ship it to me than I would be charging
@pastel drift 
what
Yee plus I already know trusted peeps here
Ur bad
I try to charge 20¢ a switch
$20 for a switch lubing zoom call tutorial
It's low 20c a switch imo
Yeah ik
But to start with it's alright
people be charging 35¢ 
I don’t do this for everyone lol
Just people I like
so I don’t charge “fair” pricing
But peeps charging 70c is a bit of a meme
Random beginners
To be fair buying lube and tools isn’t cheap plus all the hours for a TKL or what not
You can't live by lubing switched
If you’re only going to be making one keyboard it’s not the dumbest idea to buy prelubbed and filmed switches
I mean you can do 90 switches in less than two hours if you are good
Plus if you have tools already
Obamus is there a specific milky yellows switch I should yet
true
The Milky are nice
And buy lube in bigger containers
The milky?
milky yellows
My recommendations for linear are milky yellow pros and hyperglide blacks
3ml is enough for an entire board
The hyperglides
Milky yellow or milky blacks I guess (blacks has heavier springs if you like that)
They’re heavy
I'ma just get milky yellows
MX black best switch change my mind
hyperglide blacks are a bit of an ask for a beginner
No need
I love quick key strokes
You valid
True lol@glossy sandal
Cherry mx browns better
they have to lube, film, spring swap
It's out there in my top switches but since it's not linear it cannot be first for me 😁
Linear gang rise up
Tactile gang rise up
Why are linears so good
Idek the difference
It’s preference
It’s not
It is.
Tactile users are cringe and sent by Satan to destroy the world
LOL
Linear users are gods chosen people
Well honestly, try a board with linears or tactiles and see by yourself what do you like typing wise
-_-
If I ever touch microcenter again this year
I have one vote to melt down obamus’s switches into a bakeneko
I don't like but I see why someone would, it has a specific feel
Clicky is way too loud for me and yeah videos don't do switches sounds justice
Tactility is different
Clicky is just annoying
Obamus constantly has the best opinions bro
Like what
Not even an opinion it's a fact
ong
For a while I was clicky bad, but honestly after some reflection and tries, there is something specific when you press a clicky switches and you actuate it
That you can't get on tactiles
So if you are into that, fair enough
Clicky is more fun than actually being essential itself
what
Like
The whole thing here is fun and preferences lol
The only way clicky is valid is if you’re the last human on earth and no one is near a 30000km radius of you
Y'all making me nervous come on man
to be fair it really is all about preference in most cases
I have some switches that makes more noises than clicky
All mechanical switches have the same delay
Like the clack itself is loud
Obamus being real first recorded instance
He always is that's an L take
Can't is quite a statement
okay Nevermind
You have different clicky switches
And ngl its pretty bad sounding imo
And you can linearise them
“imo”
gas trail when my preference is to detonate a creeper in his bedroom (it’s all preference so it’s fine) ^
another tactile gang dub
Gas trail when in close proximity of a lighter
No
common tact w
not really
When I become a English major I'll be back
The ONLY valid MX switches
Hyperglide Black
KS-3X1
U4T
Holy Panda
No idea what is an English major
however you worded it, you’re still saying things are objective when they aren’t
idk I think it’s when you press caps lock and write English
Englsh
english majors are people who go to college to learn the language they speak
My personal list
MX blacks (different variants)
Durock POM, Alpacas, NK creams, Gateron Oil kings
MX brown
I forgor the rest
I forgot how to speak English so I simply spoke English and here I am
He forgor 
Lmao
cottoncandy are just a better version of browns
I have no idea what any of those switches are
light tactility is valid but browns aren’t its best
Y'all need to make a switches tier list
We're in the same boat
Cherry mx browns >>>>>> everything else
obamus L take #97^12
Oled Nintendo switch
Nintendo switch Lite
OG switch
Elaborate gastrail
Lmao
Less and more refined bumps are preference
Steak deck >
We’re only trolling
Jkjkjk
steak
Android 
What's it have to do with android 💀
This entire hobby is just about personal preferences, as long as you have basic performance that most Mechanical keyboards have these days there’s no best
All switches have like 8ms delay anyways
So even the $5 Amazon rgb Asia keyboards are crazy good
if you like them sure
Those aren’t mechanical!!!
as long as its hot swap
Lol
so it doesn’t apply 1!1!!1
Everything is hotswap just take a hammer and a handsaw to it


Lol
Delete that

Nice keyboard
me frfr
ong
Yeah they’re good
I keep asking the same questions so I'm sure I don't have dementia or anything
Especially if you lube them
What about them
ello
bonjour
hola
do people with big hands prefer g502 over g903?
cause from what i see g502 is just a bigger mouse but people are recommending g903
just depends on whether you prefer ambi or ergo
i don't care for ambi
but i had a bad experience with rubber on the sides
if it is threaded - it just disintegrates when you are cleaning it
g903 has plastic on the sides
g502 has rubber
then get a different ergo lol
if you specifically want a 502 esque shape the new model i from glorious looks okay
if you dont mind weight then razer basilisk is probably a better choice
i have had
razer mamba elite - my first gaming mouse
then i tried roccat tyon - ok-ish
then corsair ironclaw - not enough length for a thumb but whatever, but it is screechy after a while. and i want a mousepad charging
and yesterday bought g903
ooookay
i don't mind the weight
you recommended razer basilisk
which one? i see 3 different basilisks
will check it out
Only the viper and death adder lines are valid as razer products
Literally everything else razer makes is mid
Oh and the laptops are nice
checked out
razer basilisk ultimate v3 is a competing product for g502x plus
both have rubber on the side
damn its 6am
i really like the blocky style
cause it is comfortable
but rubber is really killing it
cause at first yes it is easy to clean and stuff
but later after multiple cleaning it becomes brittle and you just need to replace it all together
I love the g603 size
Have you checked out glorious mouses?
Works well with my grip and hand
anyone who's serious with mice will tell you that glorious mice are kind of bad.
mainly because of qc
unfortunately glorious are the only ones who make a lightweight wireless 502 shape
i prefer heavier side
and i play fps 😅
You could always get an Mx master 3
usually fps players want lighweight
you can add to those mice i listed also razer naga 2014, i replaced with the newer modeable naga
cause 2014 has sensor problems
for mmos and stuff
which is a shame.
only for ones that need f1-f12 and such
Does anyone know if you need to use g hub?
Like can you just download it once and install the settings you want on board the mouse and then uninstall?
so
bricky mouse
that is wireless
has a good build quality
that can be charged from a mousepad
and has no rubber on it
seems like a unicorn
because it's glorious
do i NEED to say more
without a capital g you make it sound like it’s glorious as in good
oh i thought you replied to the fps player lightweight comment
typing formally is tiring
would rather reserve that to emails and writeups
i do wish logitech would make a g703 superlight
its probably the only ergo I ever felt comfortable using, aside from the 502
Big mice that take up your whole hand are comforting
Yeah g703 same shape as g603
I just wished there was a g603 with the 502 scroll wheel
The rest is perfect (if you like heavier mouses like me)
you guys want massive mice, meanwhile i personally think we need mice that are as small as possible
the assembly for 502 wheel would probably take up too much space in the 603
I run 6000-8000 dpi
So weight isn't that much of an issue
I also have a pulsar xlite V2 wireless, the back hump is too low for me
But overall mouse is nice
I do 400dpi at 1000hz
1 million hz
me running at 400 dpi 😅
Dw me too bro
It's a different setup i guess
huge mousepad, light mouse with low dpi, microscopic keyboard and a huge aviator
truly the greatest
Mainly because at some point I had low space for mouse
Now I have space
But kept same habit
you know those mouses with the balls
Yes
those are pretty nice
I run 8k-16k
They don't move at zll
mental illness
16k for games and 8k for browsing and stuff
Over 8k i find that its to constraining on the type of surface
Obamus i apologize you don’t have fine motor functions
I like straight cables with long aviators
I personally find that coiled is just pain for nothing
Yeah coiled is ugly
Yee straight cables with this kind of connectors
Handarbeige 
It's XMI colours
yoo that’s what I was gonna say
It's ok
In your picture it's yc8
I think
Cheesecake ?
Cheesecake 👍
More colors 🤗
