Hi Sir, the link for the software is no longer available. Is it possible if I can get a copy of the software from you? Thanks in advance.
Why can't i see the RK918 on RK's official website? Did they discontinue this?
I don’t know if you will see this but I don’t know how to save a profile without the software like how to make the key colors different and then save them as playable keys
I'm afraid I haven't tried custom keys without the software but found the info below. Hope it helps :)
Custom backlight settings
Fn+End Five sets of custom backlight switching
Support 5 sets of custom backlight recording
Fn+Back (delete key) Record custom backlight
1. Select any set of custom backlight modes by Fn+End.
2. Press Fn+Back to enter the light recording mode. At this time, the Caps Win Scrlk Num four button will continue to flash.
3. Click the button to be set to illuminate the backlight, multiple clicks to change the backlight color of the button, and so on, and set the backlight of other buttons.
4. Press the Fn+Back button again to save after the recording is finished. At this point, the Caps Win Scrlk Num four button stops flashing.
5, complete, and so on through Fn + End can cut and set 5 different sets of custom backlight effects.
(The keyboard has a smart IC memory chip. After the USB is plugged and unplugged, the previously set lamp effect remains unchanged).

Is this hot swappable?
Is there an option to sync music with the rgb lights with this keyboard too?
Hi Ausvin, thanks for checking out the video :)
if you can find a software that someone developed that supports/detects this keyboard, I have seen it done on other brands. But the software for this keyboard itself, there's no option to sync it with music I'm afraid.
@@macbtv5057 I just saw a rk keyb capable of doing just not this specific model so I was wondering if it can be done too wt the rk918.
@@macbtv5057 anw uhm is the rk920 software on the website same wt rk918's software? Wont it brick the keyb or smth?
@@TheAusvinKing Latest one I installed was for RK919 it works fine. Don't worry you can always uninstall if it won't work.

Hi John Paul,
Thanks for watching! I saved the old version installer on this link, you can try downloading it from here:

I have one silver RK918 and one black RK918. Weird thing is, when I start the PC with the black one connnected, it just powers-on the LEDs uniformly. When I switch on the PC that has the silver one connected, it performs a very colourful startup sequence. I wish the black one would do the same. :)
Have you tried setting it to different backlight mode? Shortcut keys are shown staring 7:00 in the video.
@@macbtv5057 They're both set to similar modes; the black one has a red base with blue keys, and the silver one has a yellow base with blue keys.
the software link is not functioning anymore, and the one providaded at the "new" rk gaming website just doesnt work... anybody has the 918 software?

@@macbtv5057 Thank you so much for hosting this file! It's still so needed even years later
Hello!! I'd like to know if this keyboard is hot-swappable and can be modded, is it?
I just purchased one, It is not hot-swappable
@@laurawbingham yeah I learned that in a hard way
nakuha ko na rk918 2 days ago! so far maganda naman siya.
Nice one Sir. Anong switch kinuha mo sir?
How's the experience?
@@macbtv5057 Blue Switches po sir and nachambahan ko rin kung pano palitan ng color yung rim light niya kasi sa fn keys pattern lang pwede pero sa software niya mismo pwedeng makapa at mapalitan
@@bogzgob Pwede mo po palitan using the software po sir. Just change the option to the ones na may RIM and that should change the pattern.
Hi, so far kamusta experience?? Hehe planning to get 1
@@friannedejesus2047 Hello!, hanggang ngayon okay naman siya masarap gamitin kaso medyo may kabigatan siya may bare metal finish siya and ayun super worth it!
Pwede ba gawing two tone color yung side lamp?
Di pwede po, either yung wave, switching color na breathing, single color breathing at static lng po ang pattern ng side lamp.
nice 69th sub.
Thank you! :)
Welcome! o7
Is this fully hot swappable? Can I pit any switch I want into this keyboard?
It appears not to be
Hows the keyboard po now
No issues so far. No faded keys as of yet. Using for both work and games. :)
Boss, paano po idownload yung software? RK919 kasi pag sinusundan ko yung link. Mahalaga po ba yung features nung sa software po kasi balak ko di nalang idownload
It's the same software po. That's what initially thought din kasi iba yung nka lagay when I installed the driver but it works the same din. Here's the link: www.rkgaming.com/en-US/article.php?id=89
The only disadvantage of not installing the software siguro are you have to do custom keys and LEDs or change the settings manually. Also, I don't think you have a manual option to create macro.
@@macbtv5057 sir baka po pwede pasend ng ibang link ng software?down kase server nila salamat po

Hotswappable po?
I have not tried myself. And reviews online seems to be in conflict. I saw a vendor in Amazon that said it is not but there's a review that said it is. Here are the links:

Sa tingin niyo po sir ano mas magandang kulay, yung black po ba o yung white?
If you want to make the most of the LEDs the white one would be the choice. But for me, I picked the black since I like how it looks.
Ano po switches nya?
Hi Yami, red switch po pero may variety of different switches available.
pwede po white light lang po ung side lamp?
Hi Almira, thanks for watching. Unfortunately, there's no white in the color for the side lamp.

Pano po e turn off yung lahat ng rgb nya ? Gusto ko kasi patayin once may ka call ako HIHI
Sa hot key wala po. You will need to lower down the brightness level of the side lamp and backlight or switch modes until it's off. But the easiest way is to turn it off from the app. The slide button will turn off both the backlight at side lamp.
Filipino???
Yes po
