[sly gulch]

just get another

[queen sigil]

because one day I might desolder everything and then put not garbage switches in it

[cunning hearth]

i like linear switches, nice and smooth
@west hornet i do too now

[queen sigil]

actually no

[cunning hearth]

but before i was like

[queen sigil]

this razer uses costar stabs

[calm cobalt]

I love blue switches

jk

[cunning hearth]

i must have the loudest, clickest switches possible

[timber ridge]

youre gonna desolder a razer keeb?

[cunning hearth]

they recommend u dont even take the keycaps off

or it sounds funky

[queen sigil]

LISTEN TO THIS FLEX

[timber ridge]

it hurts

[west hornet]

would it be possible to just take out the logic board from razer and change everything else, lol

[queen sigil]

THIS IS ME LIKE PUSHING DOWN ON THE CENTER OF THE KEYBOARD

WITH MY THUIMB

oh my god

its so bad

would it be possible to just take out the logic board from razer and change everything else, lol
@west hornet probs not

i doubt they have replacement parts for sale

[west hornet]

i will take off every individual component and do makeshift board

[tight pulsar]

@west hornet handwire it ez

[west hornet]

[queen sigil]

nono

PCBs are for the weak

[west hornet]

ahh ok time to take out the wires

[queen sigil]

yyeeaah

[rain mulch]

Hi guys, do you recommend a PLC different to this? TP-Link TL-WPA7510, I have 300mbps, I connected my laptop through ethernet to the router and gave me 210mbps, connected directly to the PLC this same test gave me 90 mbps~

Do you recommend a better alternative not so much expensive?

[timber ridge]

“Gaming”

Steelseries arctis 1

[sharp kindle]

hyperx

[calm cobalt]

Idk if I should get a artics 1 or 5

artics 1 wireless

I have a artic 5 rn but its broken should I buy it again or get a HyperX CloudFlight or Artics 1 wireless

I like the artics 1 wireless a lot cause I can use it wireless on my switch

[sharp kindle]

oh look whos back

welcome back

[calm cobalt]

hi ty!

[sharp kindle]

hope you have unstuck you caps lock key

[calm cobalt]

lmao

could u help me with what headset pls

[sharp kindle]

idk much about audio

[calm cobalt]

hmmm

[sharp kindle]

i think the arctis 1 is ok though

[calm cobalt]

Yup I think that too

The HyperX cloud flight is quite expensive

I love the RGB on the Artics 5

[sharp kindle]

oh yeah

[calm cobalt]

Sad how my I broke it 😦

[sharp kindle]

forgot you like rgb

[calm cobalt]

and it doesnt work anymore

😦 😦

[sharp kindle]

well you dont see your headset so rgb isnt important

but thats what i think

[calm cobalt]

Yup I thought about that too

RGB is sexy tho

btw my mouse doesnt have RGB

quite sad

😦

[sharp kindle]

ok

[calm cobalt]

lol

should I get a model o wireless

It has RGB and its better than the mouse I have rn

[sharp kindle]

MOW is pretty good

[calm cobalt]

Yah

[queen sigil]

i hate

how many people

[calm cobalt]

I have a G305 rn

[sharp kindle]

i would reccomend it

[queen sigil]

take RGB

as a selling point!

[calm cobalt]

lmao

[sharp kindle]

true

i agree with that

but the MOW is a great mouse

and rgb is a bonus

i personally just have it at a static color

no rainbow wave for me

[calm cobalt]

Yup ik

same

I have solid colour on my kb

[sharp kindle]

the MOW could be a razer viper ult killer

if people realize it

[calm cobalt]

and the main keys that I use in blue

[tacit wing]

let me narrow it down for you. go g305 if you claw. o wireless if you ftip

[calm cobalt]

idk

I claw and figertip

lmao

[sharp kindle]

if you have smaller hands you can palm the MOW

ok

you can claw a MOW too

[calm cobalt]

I dont like big mice

[sharp kindle]

its not big

[calm cobalt]

I think MOW would be good enough for me

[sharp kindle]

its pretty average

ok

i gtg

[calm cobalt]

white or black tho?

[sharp kindle]

but ask dino if you have questions about the MOW

[calm cobalt]

dino?

[sharp kindle]

both are good

[calm cobalt]

whos that

@tacit wing

?

[sharp kindle]

yes

that person

[calm cobalt]

oh

ok

cya

[sharp kindle]

white or black is personal preference

[calm cobalt]

yah

[sharp kindle]

and if it matches ur setup

[tacit wing]

moondrop aint a stranger to that

[tight pulsar]

wait schiit just released the vali 2+ good thing i waited

[timber ridge]

moondrop and its packaging

[tacit wing]

not just the packaging but the carrying pouch too

theyre very generous with the freebies inside the box

[brisk parcel]

oh god

dino no please

don't make me buy it just because you bought it

also for those of you who were there, evie got her $30 back on the 37Xs, they were very generous 🙂

[west hornet]

Ooo anime iems yes plz

[tacit wing]

don't make me buy it just because you bought it
@brisk parcel definitely not anytime soon

im done spending this year

atleast spending on audio

this track is mastered very well

[timber ridge]

oo thats really nice

[west hornet]

reminds me of minecraft

[open osprey]

is corsair or logitech a better keyboard/mouse brand?

[timber ridge]

i think logitech makes better headsets and have better software

i would avoid keyboards from both companies tho

[queen sigil]

logitech make good mice

if you get one that doesnt explode

but if you're a fan of thin cheap keycaps both brands are great

guys there's a GMMK pro

but when is the

RAZER HUNTSMAN PRO

gonna be out

[hardy lantern]

im more of a hunstman mini person

[tacit wing]

youre very brave for saying that on here

[hardy lantern]

yes i am

it was my old keyboard

[tacit wing]

get ready for the keyboard nerds with the pitchforks and torches

they dont like the Huntsman

i couldn't care less tho cuz im not an elitist

[hardy lantern]

they can kiss my ass for liking the huntsman

and also for liking ducky, anne pro, and logitech g pro x

[timber ridge]

if you like the huntman i would recommend the hk venus

very nice 60 percent with good build quality

[hardy lantern]

looks nice

too bad i cant get it here

a bit more expensive compared to the hunstman but i like the choices for switches

[timber ridge]

yea and its aluminum

p op

[hardy lantern]

ill add that to my choices for my build

finally a non-elitist suggestion

[sharp kindle]

ew huntsman mini

rattle central

[hardy lantern]

i used it because im always moving because of work

then i gave it to my bro

wasnt using it as much since i got used to my laptops keyboard

[sharp kindle]

oh no

laptop keyboards

[hardy lantern]

not a good choice but i want to play some nfs while on the plane and those tables dont have space for kbds

[queen sigil]

get ready for the keyboard nerds with the pitchforks and torches
@tacit wing man

I jsut love raazer

[tacit wing]

[queen sigil]

rattle central
@sharp kindle razer keyboards are very stiff

[hardy lantern]

solid build quality, havent seen any flex

[queen sigil]

razer is so good

[timber ridge]

the ev 01 switches look cool

[scarlet parrot]

Anyone tried Keychron K8?

[queen sigil]

AHAH

MY DYSLEXIC BRAIN CANT TYPE A RESPONSE

ok @scarlet parrot I've tried a keychron K2 and it's probably the best value prebuilt in the price range

They come with prelubed stabs and clipped stabs meaning the space and other large keys wont make a rattling sound when pressed

And for 100$ you get a full aluminum keyboard with RGB that's hotswap and wireless

(for the k8)

but you're going to want a wrist rest for it since the keyboard is pretty high

[timber ridge]

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=109129.0

[timber ridge]

i dont think its full aluminum if i remeber correctly

[queen sigil]

Sound test of my keychron K2 with gateron silent reds

[timber ridge]

its jus like a metal bumper around he top piece

[queen sigil]

i mean it aint mine but I "assembled" it

[scarlet parrot]

Hmmm the K2 doesn't look bad, but both the same price. Reason I asked cause I never tried them nor do I think any type of mech keyboard

Is there really a big difference between the keychron and gateron? Sorry for questions, just trying to understand them more

So far looked into the switches and thinking of getting Cherry MX Brown

[queen sigil]

I'd stay away from their "optical" switches

Gateron is usually considered to be better than cherry switches tho

[timber ridge]

leo see the keeb i linked

[queen sigil]

but i'd assume that all their keyboards have the same ish quality with clipped stabs that are also lubed

(as long as you get a newer model)

leo see the keeb i linked
@timber ridge OKAY

smh needy

[timber ridge]

bruh

[queen sigil]

oh my god its a GMMK pro clone

oh wait

it's 65%

[timber ridge]

yuh

[scarlet parrot]

Only thing I've saw with Gateron was how it's smooth

[queen sigil]

I was wondering why they only had 2 nav buttons on the right lol

[scarlet parrot]

I guess I'll try it for the first time. Have you tried customizing your K2 keyboard?

[queen sigil]

also that gap for the arrow cluser seems pretty small 👀

[scarlet parrot]

I think I'd like to customize it at some point

[queen sigil]

I guess I'll try it for the first time. Have you tried customizing your K2 keyboard?
@scarlet parrot I mean I switches out all the switches

the hot swap feels fine

if you know how to the K2 could really use some foam on the inside but I was too lazy to do that and I didnt have foam

But other than that besides bandaid modding the PCB there aren't much things that I think you could do in terms of modifications

[timber ridge]

i wonder how hard it would be to case swap it

[queen sigil]

wow look at me im being helpful instead of talking about how much I "love" razer

[timber ridge]

considering it has a battery, that might be an issue

[scarlet parrot]

Eh I just want to switch keycaps. I guess I might switch the switches, but I'll try looking into it

[timber ridge]

and the usbc ports

[queen sigil]

I mean keycaps are really easy to switch

My k2 came with a nice wire keycap remover

[scarlet parrot]

The K2 is currently out of stock, but I like how the K8 looks since it's a bit...separated?

[timber ridge]

if youre not interested in switching switches then save and get the non hotswap variant

[queen sigil]

and the usbc ports
@timber ridge and the mac/windows and the BT/WIRED/OFF switches on the left of the case

and the USBC is on the left

[timber ridge]

yea

[queen sigil]

I mean I doubt there's a difference on the quality of the product

[tacit wing]

leo switch ur name to razer lover

[queen sigil]

but the k8 can have an aluminum option

fin

e

[scarlet parrot]

How can I say this

[queen sigil]

done

@tacit wing happy

[timber ridge]

epic

[scarlet parrot]

I guess the way the keys are in the K2 I find odd

[timber ridge]

the fact that its compact?

[scarlet parrot]

versus the K8, at least the right side is a part from the left

https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k8-tenkeyless-wireless-mechanical-keyboard?variant=32018252955737

[queen sigil]

the K2 is considered a 75% keyboard while the K8 is considered an 80% or a TKL/tenkeyless

75% have 3 less keys but alot more compact

But i'd say a TKL is the smallest keyboard you really need

for functionality wise

Cough cough people who like 40% keyboards

[timber ridge]

i mean the k6 is a 65 percent

[scarlet parrot]

Yea I like how it's 80% at least, but i'll give it a bit more thought.

Just not that used to it being more compact

Hopefully the K2 goes back in stock before the year ends, if not eh

[queen sigil]

i mean the k6 is a 65 percent
@timber ridge AM I DOING GOOD

AM I BEING HELPFUL

[scarlet parrot]

Lmao

The k6 doesn't look bad, at least a bit of an alternative to the k2

[tacit wing]

if Zero makes his decision by tonight ill consider you helpful

[scarlet parrot]

[tacit wing]

[timber ridge]

😄

[scarlet parrot]

I mean right now, both razer and lance have been helpful

[timber ridge]

if you dont wanna swap switches and want a stock keyboard with a lot of switch options, check the hades 68

[scarlet parrot]

I feel like a bit of a boomer when trying to learn about kbs

[timber ridge]

same layout as the k6

but its full aluminum and has stock pbt keycaps

[scarlet parrot]

Had saw the hades 68 an hr ago

I'll try looking into that again

[queen sigil]

key

the keychron

has doubleshot

probobally pbt keycaps

[hardy lantern]

hk venus

[timber ridge]

thats the 60 percent version of it

[queen sigil]

if you dont wanna swap switches and want a stock keyboard with a lot of switch options, check the hades 68
@timber ridge BuuUuuuT DoOoEEEeeS iTT haaVVEE LUUUBBEEED STAAABSSS?????

[timber ridge]

yup

[queen sigil]

wow

thats not cool

[timber ridge]

only downside to it imo is that its not a true high profile keeb

[queen sigil]

eeewwww

[timber ridge]

its not low profile or high

[queen sigil]

ITS 140$

??????????????????????????????????????

[timber ridge]

depends on the switches

109 for gat blacks

[queen sigil]

WHY IS CHERRY BLUE CHEAPER THAN BOX REDS

??????????????????

SPEED SILVERS ARE

1

5

0

DOLARS

at that point might as well buy a keychron with replacement switches

[scarlet parrot]

Watching a review

The guy should probably change the title, best value idk about that

But it sounds and looks interesting

[queen sigil]

unless they're a keyboard specific youtuber take their opinions with a grain of salt

because they might not care about lubed stabs and stuff like that

and gateron switches etc

[timber ridge]

p sure hes watchin taekeybaords review

so it should be good

[scarlet parrot]

yea that was the review

[timber ridge]

a lot of the reviews complain about abs keycaps but they switched it to come stock with pbt now

[scarlet parrot]

I only read like 2 complaining about that so far

[tacit wing]

there is nothing to complain about, if you have no keyboard

[timber ridge]

https://kono.store/products/ev-01-linear-switches?variant=32273004036179

::thinking emoji::

[tight pulsar]

what about them

[timber ridge]

tempting

[scarlet parrot]

No Gundam ones

[timber ridge]

there i so many gundam collabs

[scarlet parrot]

Had saw the recent one they're doing with ASUS and thought it was interesting, but never saw one with switches

[timber ridge]

o, not with switches but with tech

[queen sigil]

yes read what he said

c;pwm

[scarlet parrot]

Tbh I think I'm still leaning towards Keychron especially for pricing kind of

Though if I ever plan to try another brand I'll think of Durgod

Thank you both again for your help. If I have anymore questions I'll ask another time.

[obtuse kayak]

I'm looking at the g502 lightspeed (wireless) https://www.newegg.com/logitech-910-005565-g502-usb-lightspeed-wireless/p/N82E16826197336?item=9SIASGMCSA7134&source=googleshopping&nm_mc=knc-googlemkp-mobile&cm_mmc=knc-googlemkp-mobile-_-pla-senytech-_-gaming+mice-_-9SIASGMCSA7134&gclsrc=ds

Is it a good mouse? Anything better than it that also offers hyper scroll? Everything I've seen keeps coming back to that mouse. Just want to make sure it is a good buy

[queen sigil]

@tacit wing

dino help this man

[timber ridge]

if youre okay with the heavy weight go for it

i know the g903 has a hyper scroll also

[obtuse kayak]

I'm fine with the weight.

[timber ridge]

its 99 on bestbuy btw

[obtuse kayak]

I was thinking about buying through Amazon anyhow but thanks!

[timber ridge]

np

[obtuse kayak]

It is the same price on Amazon

You have knowledge about keyboards?

[timber ridge]

enough to help

[obtuse kayak]

I've always been a steel series guy my self but I'm also looking for a keyboard something with a max budget of $250 for the keyboard.

Which basically leaves it open to everything

[timber ridge]

form factor and switches

[tacit wing]

well he already made his decision u love to see it

[stark girder]

I've always been a steel series guy my self but I'm also looking for a keyboard something with a max budget of $250 for the keyboard.
I like my corsair k100 with optical switches, its a little overpriced for what it is tho

But it is SEXY AF

[queen sigil]

hmm

[tacit wing]

oh no

[timber ridge]

dont listen to that

[queen sigil]

mmmmmmm

[queen sigil]

MMMMMMMMM

[stark girder]

Its overpriced

But it is secks

[queen sigil]

no no

no

[obtuse kayak]

I like tactile switches. I don't have much knowledge in the different switches though.

[stark girder]

Definitely go with something else if you want performance rather than asthetics

[timber ridge]

okay

mmm

you dont plan on modding or building do you

jus want the best prebuilt ?

[queen sigil]

best prebuilt is not gonna be over like 200$

because leopold is the best prebuilt

and you dont get an opinion

[stark girder]

I hear the k95 is good?

With uhhhh

[queen sigil]

YES

[timber ridge]

he could get a prebuilt from kbdfans

[stark girder]

Cherry MX speed

?

[queen sigil]

VERY GOOD

[stark girder]

I think, right?

[queen sigil]

WHY

MESSAGE PLS SEND

[timber ridge]

lmao

he he likes corsair keebs, let the man b

hes happy with it

[queen sigil]

yes

corsair very good

theyre better than custom keyboards

[stark girder]

What was the other k95 switch option?

[obtuse kayak]

Any recommendation of a specific corsair one?

[queen sigil]

oh mo

nonono it was joke

dont buy a corsair

[timber ridge]

dont recommend corsair

[stark girder]

Sad

[obtuse kayak]

Ah

[stark girder]

Corsair if you like asthetics,
I'd say a uhhhhhh steelseries apex 5?

[queen sigil]

nnonononno

[obtuse kayak]

I used to have a k90 the RGB quit very soon after though

[timber ridge]

not that either

[stark girder]

Hmmm

[queen sigil]

keep guessing

[stark girder]

I dont really know too much about keebs other than certain corsair ones

[obtuse kayak]

Does logitech make any good keyboards?

[stark girder]

Logitech?

[obtuse kayak]

I know they have very good mice

[stark girder]

They absolutely do

Their keebs im not sure

[queen sigil]

[hardy lantern]

thin keycaps but some of them are nice

[timber ridge]

if you wanna spend 250 on a keeb, i would get a custom built one from kbd

[queen sigil]

okokok

im gonna say it

dont get a corsair keyboard

or like any "gaming keyboard"

[timber ridge]

yea nothing from the big reputable gaming companies honestly

their mice is fine but keebs not so worth it

[stark girder]

Sad

Why not though?

[queen sigil]

and definately no razer or corsair boards

or steel series

[stark girder]

Red dragon?

[hardy lantern]

red dragon is shiet

[queen sigil]

red dragon is good if ur broke

[hardy lantern]

never get red dragon stuff

[timber ridge]

atleast red dragon isnt overpriced

[stark girder]

Their keebs are hideous tbh

[hardy lantern]

just get a gk61

[obtuse kayak]

The price tag of the red dragon kinda had me away from them ahah.

[queen sigil]

because you cant get much stuff for like 40$ except autemu switches

[stark girder]

Get an IBM model M

Best keeb

Good luck finding one tho

[queen sigil]

lol what

[obtuse kayak]

I actually have an old IBM leyboard

[queen sigil]

definately not

[hardy lantern]

gk61 or hk venus rgb

[queen sigil]

buckling spring switches feel terrible

[hardy lantern]

or maybe a gmmk keyboard

[obtuse kayak]

Not sure of the mode though

[queen sigil]

or maybe a gmmk keyboard
@hardy lantern no

stop

[hardy lantern]

no i wont

[stark girder]

Its an old ps/2 keeb

[queen sigil]

bad reccomendation

whats ur budget for a keyboard

[obtuse kayak]

I remember trying out an old numpad for OSU

Under $250

[stark girder]

He said 250 I think

Ye

[queen sigil]

Get a leopold

or build a cheap one

[hardy lantern]

gk61

its a good entry level kbd with hot swappable switches

[stark girder]

Im gonna leave before I accidentally make a bad recommendation and it gets taken

[timber ridge]

its ok

atleast youre aware

some ppl refuse to learn after we tell them

[queen sigil]

@hardy lantern if ur not gonna read what he said dont recommend anything

some ppl refuse to learn after we tell them
@timber ridge

[obtuse kayak]

I mean I'd even spend up to $300 at most. You think custom building would be the way to go though if I'm going to spend big money into it?

[timber ridge]

yes

most def

[obtuse kayak]

Mkay

[timber ridge]

if you dont wanna solder, i would recommend a hotswap board

but it takes long for a build depending on what you want

[queen sigil]

like 200$ for a kit 50$ for keycaps 50$ for switches

[obtuse kayak]

I'm fine with soldering tbh

[queen sigil]

Do u have a soldering iron

[obtuse kayak]

Yep

Pretty nice one as well

[queen sigil]

and are you fine with your keyboard arriving in a couple months

[obtuse kayak]

No biggie

[timber ridge]

ooo

perfect

[queen sigil]

this is literally like

the best type of person

[timber ridge]

hes gonna fall into the rabbit hole

[obtuse kayak]

Mine works fine atm I just figured I'd get an upgrade with my mouse aha

[timber ridge]

zealios build xd

[queen sigil]

Decent budget, doesn't care for custom, doesn't care about time

zealios build xd
@timber ridge ah yes blow half ur budget on switches

NO

ok what size do you need

[obtuse kayak]

It may keep me hype on waiting but I think that is sorta normal ahha

[timber ridge]

60 percent, 65 percent, 75percent, tkl

full size

[queen sigil]

keyboard.university

[queen sigil]

bad size chart

[obtuse kayak]

Uhm

[queen sigil]

doesnt have ortho 70 key

or 30% numpad

or 40% ortho

or HHKB

or WKL

or 96%

ok ima stop complaining

[obtuse kayak]

Is 65% used often?

[timber ridge]

yep

if you dont need function keys

i would go with 65

[obtuse kayak]

65% is fine for me. I dont really use any numpad keys and such

[queen sigil]

portico

ez

[timber ridge]

ik hes not looking for budget but kbd's new kit is coming out

65 percent for 100

hotswap and gasket mounted

[queen sigil]

portico is gasket mounted

polycarb

everything for 250$

if you like these colors it's a good choice

[timber ridge]

o yea i forgot about that

if the color scheme works thats ez pick

for the price, you cant beat it

[queen sigil]

fr4 plate

its also hotswap

[timber ridge]

basically 100 for switches, stabs and kit

[queen sigil]

ships in march tho

[obtuse kayak]

They look pretty nice

[queen sigil]

comes with coled USB cable and a carrying case

[obtuse kayak]

I can wait until March I'm not really in a hurry at all.

O.o

[queen sigil]

and comes with nice PCB mount screw in stabs

[timber ridge]

crazy how it comes with tactiles too

[obtuse kayak]

Thekeycompany right?

[queen sigil]

ye

[timber ridge]

yup

[queen sigil]

make sure you look through everything to make sure its actually something you want

[timber ridge]

i would of bought that kit if it came sooner

but it comes around the same time the gmmk pro ships

[stark girder]

65% is ew

It just doesn't look right to me tbh

[queen sigil]

i mean you like corsair keyboards so your opinion is wrong

[stark girder]

Aaaaaaaa

i paid for asthetics

remember

[queen sigil]

u paid for the brand

[stark girder]

Not really

[timber ridge]

what aesthetics did u pay for

[stark girder]

I was looking into logitech keebs and then one of my friends showed be a picture of a k100

[queen sigil]

if you paid for aesthetics you woudl buy a keyboard with 2/3 pin LEDs and some underglow

[neon quartz]

CrackheadMcQueen#5685 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[stark girder]

Oops

Sorry

Tf is that sexy thing

[timber ridge]

you forgot high profile too leo

[queen sigil]

yeah

low profile is gross

[stark girder]

Can You guys stop bullying me because i like my keeb pls ;~;

[timber ridge]

if you like it, dont feel bad about it

[queen sigil]

oh no he's turned into every bad keyboard owner

[timber ridge]

theres nothing to feel bad about it if you like it

[hardy lantern]

XD found the elitist kbd owner

[stark girder]

Aaaaaa, I gotta go to sleep

[queen sigil]

I get mad when someone recommends something like a razer or corsair keyboard

[hardy lantern]

let them have fun, dont have to shiet on them for buying big name brand ones

[stark girder]

Sorry, I just dont know too much about keebs

[timber ridge]

aslong as you like your keeb, thats all that matters

[queen sigil]

Because you're paying for cheap RGB and the same

You can like your keyboard

but dont tell people to but it if they're asking for recommendations

[timber ridge]

i mean

[queen sigil]

unless they want rgb

[timber ridge]

its a bad recommendation but its natural to recommend something you like

and enjoy

[queen sigil]

and dont care about quality

[hardy lantern]

like i said, you dont have to shiet on others for using name brand stuff

not everyone likes custom

[stark girder]

I'm sorry for recommending something I use, have a good experience with, and know about. that's just how recommendations work

[queen sigil]

I don't recommend custom keyboards to people unless they say they're okay with a custom

[stark girder]

Sorry, I'm getting a little upset

[hardy lantern]

I'm sorry for recommending something I use, have a good experience with, and know about. that's just how recommendations work
@stark girder dont be

[queen sigil]

Yeah im not getting mad at you

im getting mad at corsair

[hardy lantern]

you dont have to feel bad because someone thinks your opinion is bad

opinions are opinions, nothing is right or wrong (in a sense)

everyone has their own preferences, you dont have to feel bad about yours and you shouldnt have to give people crap because they have different preferences to yours

[stark girder]

I agree

[timber ridge]

@stark girder if you wanna try a different keeb, my go to recommendation is the durgod hades or venus

[hardy lantern]

this is the 3rd time ive seen someone shut down opinions here

[queen sigil]

keycrhon

chrom

chron

[stark girder]

I am willing to try new hardware

[obtuse kayak]

I think I'm going to buy a Portico

[timber ridge]

nice

[obtuse kayak]

Anything else you think I should check out with a similar style?

[timber ridge]

another option that isnt 65 percent but is 75 is the gmmk pro

[queen sigil]

nothing for the same price

[timber ridge]

it comes out next year also, but you have to buy your own switches and caps

[stark girder]

Wait does the durgod hades come in full-size?

[hardy lantern]

i dont think it does?

[timber ridge]

not that im aware of

[hardy lantern]

but im sure the venus is 65%

[queen sigil]

But for 250$ you're getting like 50$ worth of key switches and a part of a 150$ keycap set

[stark girder]

I'll check out Durgod's other products maybe?

[tacit wing]

i may have to return these garbage ass pads

[hardy lantern]

yeah good idea @stark girder

im seeing tons of great reviews for their kbds

[stark girder]

Is the durgod k310 any good?

[queen sigil]

i'd recommend keychron over durgot

Lower price and comes with lubed stabs

[hardy lantern]

for a full-size kbd, looks good

[stark girder]

Oo wireless

[timber ridge]

they both have lube stabs, the only downfall of keyvhron is board height

[stark girder]

Which honestly doesn't matter to me on a keeb that much

But nice feature

[queen sigil]

yeah with keychron you're either gonna get RSI or you're going to have to get a wrist rest

[last plinth]

40$ for that

[stark girder]

I'm gonna get a few keebs to try em out

[last plinth]

The pads

[queen sigil]

but for the price getting preclipped and lubed stabs are nice

[last plinth]

-40$

[stark girder]

I mean

[tacit wing]

40$ for that
@last plinth thats regular price for 600 pads

the OEM ones are the same price for worse foam rigidity

[stark girder]

I can use a rolled-up towel as a wristrest if I need to

[tacit wing]

but the Drop ones sounds worse

[obtuse kayak]

it comes out next year also, but you have to buy your own switches and caps
@timber ridge Do you think it is worth waiting for the gmmk pro then buying switches /caps?

Gmmk pro looks like a pretty nice board

[hardy lantern]

its customizable to say the least

hot swappable?

[obtuse kayak]

That is what I was thinking. I can get my own caps and switches to the way I want

[timber ridge]

if you like the look better, go for it

its also aluminum

[hardy lantern]

sounds great

[timber ridge]

i put reservation in for one myself

[obtuse kayak]

Oh nice!

[timber ridge]

it should arrive during the same time as the portico if there is no delays

[queen sigil]

but you're going to be paying more for good switches and keycaps

[last plinth]

With 40$ u shouldve treated urself with some ramen or something

[hardy lantern]

$40 for ramen seems expensive

[timber ridge]

but you're going to be paying more for good switches and keycaps
yea, the portico is best value

[hardy lantern]

ichiran is cheaper than that

[tacit wing]

i wipe my ass for 40 dollars

its no big deal

[last plinth]

Better than spending it on headphone stuff

[sharp kindle]

ichiran goated ngl

[last plinth]

Or better yet csgo stuff

[sharp kindle]

p good

not the best

[timber ridge]

spend it on vbucks

ez

[hardy lantern]

thats why i use iems instead of gaming headphones on a more regular basis

[timber ridge]

i swap back and forth

i have iems on rn tho

[obtuse kayak]

What would be the ideal amount to spend with buying top end switches for the gmmk pro including the caps

[hardy lantern]

currently, im using my razer hammerhead pro v2

[timber ridge]

you wanna cash out

[hardy lantern]

has good bass tbh

[tacit wing]

filipinos love their iems lol

[timber ridge]

switches will be like 100

keycaps will be like 150

[obtuse kayak]

So like $400 total ish?

[tacit wing]

im more headphone man

[timber ridge]

thats if you cash out

[tacit wing]

[obtuse kayak]

I can probably do that.

[hardy lantern]

gaming earphones pog

might get the hyper x clouds next

[obtuse kayak]

I mean budget isn't really a major thing. If I can get an insane keyboard I'd love that

Custom is nice as well

[timber ridge]

only problem with custom keycaps is

if you purchase them rn

youll prob get them this time next year

for a nice kit

[obtuse kayak]

Oof

[tacit wing]

i dont usually rec. gaming headsets but the Clouds are an exception as well as the MH751

[timber ridge]

yea

[obtuse kayak]

Damn that sucks

[tacit wing]

theyre just rebranded Takstars

[hardy lantern]

kbdfans.com

[timber ridge]

but there is plenty of kits in stock rn

[queen sigil]

going all out for a keyboard is like

15$ for lube

probs like 2-300$

[last plinth]

lol

[queen sigil]

for the kit

100+ for keycaps

[obtuse kayak]

Do you have any links you can send me for the caps / switches?

[queen sigil]

https://mechgroupbuys.com/keycaps

[timber ridge]

kbdfans is a good website for switches

[queen sigil]

these are group buy key caps

[last plinth]

Dont groupbuy stuff arrive in like 6 months

[hardy lantern]

alibaba for keycaps

[timber ridge]

gb stuff usually take super long

like 98% of the time

sometimes gb take like 2-3 months to ship

which isnt long for a gb

[tacit wing]

if i was into a darker sound signature i would love these pads

but i dont

[timber ridge]

dino u know about usb mics ?

[tacit wing]

i think its worth 40 bucks tho but how it makes my cans sound, its not my groove

no not really

XLR more of

[timber ridge]

rip

[obtuse kayak]

XLR ftw

[timber ridge]

not if youre budget

[obtuse kayak]

True

USB mics are also decent

[hardy lantern]

try blue yeti

[obtuse kayak]

Yeah blue yetis are nice

[timber ridge]

and this is jus for coms

no podcast or anything so i should be fine with a usb mic

[obtuse kayak]

Ah gotcha

[hardy lantern]

theres also this nice audio brand called jlab

[timber ridge]

rn the quadcast and amazonbasic mic interest me

believe it or not the amazon basic wone is really good

[hardy lantern]

they make tws earphones but it seems theyve entered the comms game

[obtuse kayak]

I have full studio everything but I haven't gotten into pod casting or anything yet

Audiotechnica is my usual go to

[timber ridge]

ive seen the new jlab mics but dont know how they compare to the competition

[hardy lantern]

theres also a seiren mini for 50 on amazon

[timber ridge]

my budget is like 150 max prob

[tacit wing]

El Gato Wave

[timber ridge]

according to a bunch of reviews and mic samples, the seiren is not good

[hardy lantern]

blue yeti

[tacit wing]

El Gato has software that is basically a software version of the GoXLR

[hardy lantern]

hyperx quadcast

[tacit wing]

although not quite

according to a bunch of reviews and mic samples, the seiren is not good
@timber ridge for 50 dollars, you shouldnt expect much

it does the job

[hardy lantern]

looked up the amazon basics mic and damn it looks solid

[timber ridge]

yea lol

[hardy lantern]

i think its the only one with a oled display built in

[timber ridge]

it performs really good too

[obtuse kayak]

Are ducky keyboards nice at all? I heard about them before.

[timber ridge]

not worth

the build quality doesnt match the price

[obtuse kayak]

Ah

Cheap?

[timber ridge]

yep

[obtuse kayak]

Figured

[timber ridge]

so many alternatives for the same price or if not cheaper

[obtuse kayak]

I'm probably going to end up building one

Seems to be the best way to go of budget isn't a problem.

[timber ridge]

if you check kdbfans prebuilt options

they have good stuff

[hardy lantern]

^agree with that

i might suggest a hotswappable one

[obtuse kayak]

Hmm they look pretty nice

[last plinth]

Nk65 coming out soon

(Coming back in stock)

[timber ridge]

when so

[last plinth]

On the website

November-december they said

Aluminum and entry

[timber ridge]

mmm

i might wait and get that for my temp keeb

[obtuse kayak]

Welp I think I'm going to go with a gmmk pro. Thank you so much for the help guys!

[timber ridge]

np

thanks for listening to our advice

the amount of ppl who get advice then disregard it lol

[obtuse kayak]

Lol

I mean hey if you ask for a good keyboard your going to get a good keyboard ahah

Might be pricey/ take a while but atleast it is goid

Good*

I've been sorta against corsair after dealing with the warranty on several of their products

All these big brand companies don't really seem to give a crap it seems.

[timber ridge]

what color gmmk pro did you get

[obtuse kayak]

Nothing yet. Probably will be white though

[timber ridge]

i got the silver variant

but i wanna do a black build too, so idk

[limber current]

What's the best Cherry MX red switch mechanical keyboard I can get for under $250

[timber ridge]

might do two separate builds

[obtuse kayak]

Ah

[timber ridge]

what form factor

and does it have to be cherry

or jus any linear

[limber current]

what form factor

Full size, and imo, yes to just Cherry because other mechanical switches feel a little more gummier at least when I tried them

[timber ridge]

by any chance was it a outemu red

gateron reds are pretty smooth

[limber current]

Are those keyboards with those switches under $250?

[sharp cape]

Best keyboard with silent switches?

[timber ridge]

not too familiar with full size but iKBC CD108 and keychron k4 look are good

@sharp cape what formfactor and budget

[sharp cape]

I want a full size. I don't want to spend too much on a keyboard maybe like 150 max

[limber current]

@timber ridge so I looked up the iKBC CD108 and it looks like it's a cherry MX clear switch rather than a red

Oh wait

Found the mx reds

80 bucks, that's not too bad! I'm actually gonna put this in my wishlist

But you asked before if the switches were outemu red? Yeah, it was a Redragon K551

It was like....$20 when I got it, like on sale

[timber ridge]

@sharp cape not familiar with full size silent switch keebs sorry

and yea outemu reds are not smooth

but gateron are good

[limber current]

As good as cherry? Does it have a substantial amount of satisfactory feeling when pressing a key?

[timber ridge]

on par

[limber current]

Okay. Can you give me a keyboard with those switches? Same form factor and wired please

[timber ridge]

thats all i got to recommend

dont know much about full size

[last plinth]

Go on mechanicalkeyboard.com

And use the switch filter

[timber ridge]

leopold and durgod has nice options

[limber current]

dont know much about full size

How come? I'm kind of curious as to why ten keyless boards are more popular than full size? I use the numpad religiously xD

[timber ridge]

top row num keys are enough for me

[high fulcrum]

^same

[limber current]

Your displayname pretty much said it for me xD @high fulcrum

[timber ridge]

anyone know if yellows are lighter than blacks

[last plinth]

If i were u

65% with numpad

seperate,y

Seperately

[queen sigil]

good morning

whoo need die

[celest gulch]

@last plinth wanna get together

[timber ridge]

leo

[queen sigil]

Go on mechanicalkeyboard.com
@last plinth terrible thing to do

[timber ridge]

should i spend 20 extra for yellow switches over blacks

[queen sigil]

that website doesnt have many keyboard options that are decent quality

[celest gulch]

100%

[last plinth]

Leopold

[queen sigil]

should i spend 20 extra for yellow switches over blacks
@timber ridge whats the price on yellows

[last plinth]

Pogchamp

[queen sigil]

per switch

[celest gulch]

just do it

[timber ridge]

pre built keeb

109 for blacks

130 for yellows

[queen sigil]

bro at that point

[celest gulch]

exactly

[queen sigil]

you could just but a keychron and replace the switches

[celest gulch]

if u caan spend 110, u can spend 130

[queen sigil]

with like inks

[timber ridge]

hmm

ima jus stick with the black switches

[queen sigil]

but i mean shipping id also expensive

so maybe not inks

[timber ridge]

and ima order the eva switches

theyre durock/jwk

so basically h1/alpacas/mauves

[queen sigil]

@obtuse kayak if ur on a strict 300$ budget look out for shipping for switches and keycaps

[timber ridge]

i recommend buying your switches and key caps from the same place if possible

[queen sigil]

both switch and keycaps will probs have around 20$ each for shipping

i recommend buying your switches and key caps from the same place if possible
@timber ridge bro you were the guy who recommended gmmk

what he bouta buy

kalih switches?

pudding keycaps

[timber ridge]

he asked for similar options

[queen sigil]

170$ keyboard
35$+20$shipping for switches
and 100$+20$shipping for keycaps

how to punt a budget out the window

but i mean with the 65% youre getting like 60$ worth of switches

and like 1/4 of a 150$ kit with like 25$ worth of mods

for the keycaps

[last plinth]

Razer obviously

Best keeb

Its in leos name

[queen sigil]

id either wait to see the keycap kits gmmk has to offer before you order one

But you got 2 weeks to order the portico keyboard

or whatever its called

[frosty canyon]

is the mx master 3 worth it for a tablet and laptop. i am just a casual user who does web browsing and i am starting to learn python

[timber ridge]

i would jus save the 70 bucks and go with the 502

[frosty canyon]

ah ok

thnks

i wil see

the money aint my problem

[tacit wing]

@frosty canyon the MX Master is super ergonomic

more ergo than the 502

but both mice has nearly the same amount of features except the MX having a thumb scroll wheel

[frosty canyon]

Alright thank you

I just saw some reviews

And I think I will get the mx master 3

The only reason I asked in discord was I wanted to get feedback from ppl who use it or use similar type of mouses

[obtuse kayak]

@timber ridge @queen sigil Budget shouldn't really be an issue. I can spend more than $300 as long as it is good / will last. I've easily went through $300 just in the past few years from crappy key boards. My steel series one currently seems to be the best one I've had so far. It has lasted the longest so far. I'm sure the custom built will last near forever though.

[stark girder]

just learned how to drag click, mouse has double click protection

i need a new mouse

any reccommendations? or how to remove DCP

im thinkin a mad catz mouse, but idk how good they are

[wintry bramble]

model o

[stark girder]

which company?

ah nvm

its a nice mouse

mabe

ill consider it

i love this though

does it have DCP though?

[obtuse kayak]

I've had a mad catz mouse in the past. They are actually very nice but I will warn you if you don't clean it often the keys will basically break @stark girder

I miss my mad catz mouse I just didn't really clean it often so the keys ended up getting wonky.

[stark girder]

ah, ok

hmmm

im gonna consider my options

is the Rat pro x3 any good?

also cant find many prices for 'emn

YO WTF

180 DOLLARS

i just need something light & good for drag clicking

i cant even find the mojo m1 for sale anywhere

oh it was just announed

whomp, whomp

[queen sigil]

@obtuse kayak So basically in terms of quality id say the palico or whatever the keyboard was called is higher qualith since youre getting more expensive and keycaps for your money

but besides that theres no real quality difference between like keycasa and normal keycaps you could find on amazon for like 50$

but if you havr the budget to get a gmmk pro with gmk keycaps an nice switches

[tight pulsar]

help why is this recommended to me

[obtuse kayak]

I was more of so leaning on getting a gmmk pro and waiting for their caps. I'm guessing kbdfans is good for switches though? @queen sigil

[queen sigil]

For the most part

[timber ridge]

kbd has good switch and kaps options

[queen sigil]

but if you can i'd find a website that sell switches for cheap

scratch that

a website that doesnt have 20 DOLLAR SHIPPING

[tight pulsar]

ali/taobao/mechmarket/local discords is where i get my switches from

[queen sigil]

Im not in any local discords

hmmmm

[timber ridge]

never really looked into local discords

might hav to find some

[west hornet]

lol nachos

[tight pulsar]

fr tho thats where ive gotten all my switches except the ink blacks on my first board

[timber ridge]

my first build is either gonna be inks or one of the eva switches

[elder current]

what hyper x headset is good\

under 60 or around 60

or what ever headset that has that noise caneclation feautre

[queen sigil]

noice cane celation

[elder current]

yes

where you move the microphone peice up

its supposed to mute all noise

[cobalt nova]

lots of headsets have that

[timber ridge]

is a mute switch not good enough

[elder current]

then what one is good

hello?

[obtuse kayak]

What type of switch would you recommend? @queen sigil

[queen sigil]

idk like inks

zealios

idc

What

[timber ridge]

if he wants to avoid 20 dollar shipping he can go with glorious pandas

[queen sigil]

eh

[elder current]

a what lance

[queen sigil]

i wouldnt go all glorious because thats cringe

[timber ridge]

was talking about switches

[elder current]

oh ok

[timber ridge]

but there is durock koalas

and im not familiar with the budget headset options

or headsets much in general tbh, i would jus save for a pair of 37x or 38

if kiwi switches ever restock he can get those too

[queen sigil]

buy them glow in the dark switches
