Hi Glarses! Appreciate you stopping by! Haha, I know how you feel about the browns. I wonder if more lube on browns will just turn them into linears...
Really is I love watching this guy. He has a great 17$ custom cable video which is game changing imo. Your work aint bad it self though no pun intended.
I think I might like the sound of these more than the creams. I think you're spot on, shaking a can of spray paint and it's so satisfying. Idk if im gonna make them, but thanks for the info for the future!
These actually sound so good. Im torn between being too lazy to desolder my creams and mod them and having them sound similar to this. Underrated video
Hi Grabbestei! Haha I hear you. But I love a batch of nice NK Creams also. Mine were just a bit messed up so I had to desolder them out... Gave me the perfect reason to convert them to this!
I made a Frankenswitch between Durock L5 linear and Gateron Oil Kings. Used the bottom housing and leaf from the Durock, then used the upper housing, stem, and spring from the Oil Kings. Resulted in a fast-actuating, smooth, heavy, deep-sounding switch with muted RGB.
I hand-lubed my outemu brown switches since they were a spare set lying around , but man, I've never heard such a huge change in sound profile, super creamy while being cheap
Hi PTSDthiccestboi! Haha these are lubed and filmed. Sorry I didn't show the lubing during the assembly, but the switches were lubed previously so I just used them as is. Hope that helps!
I thought you were just a mad lad for doing this but damn they actually sound so fire! I have a bunch of browns I dont use but guess I have an idea now.
Hey adRR! Good seeing you! All due to the support you guys have been giving me! I appreciate the comments and I have some more content planned for next week also!
Last time I witnessed a YTer wean he removed all his old shite. It might be nice watching people grow but being realistic will also help; afterall, it wasn't you were who exclusively searched for the guy but YT putting him in related vids.
In animal crossbreeding etymology, the starting section of the new name will be the stating section of the male that produced it and rest will be female. Male polar + Female grizzly = Pizzly and vice versa is Golar. I'd say the bottom housing is the majority of the volume taken up of the switch so id call them GateCreams.
I changed my gateron brown optical switches to linears by removing the leaf that adds tactility, they're basically reds now but a touch heavier which is perfect for me I was wanting a linear inbetween reds and blacks (i know they do yellows but the yellow gat opticals are 35g not 50g) with optical they linears don't have a leaf so I saved myself buying a lot of 70 lol.
I used Gateron black housings before and cream stems. You get the same effect. Either way. It’s fun to experiment and try different things with switches
My gawd I just listened to other sound tests of other linears and these just hit the spot. I'm more of a holy panda kinda guy, but damn I might have to make these
Hi Vincent! So glad that you like the sound! The sound of these are unique and I've been really enjoying these as a daily driver! It reminds me why I got into this hobby in the first place.
They sound good-a little higher pitched than I'd like. I think I actually prefer the sound of the creams as-is-but then, as much as I like the sound, I just type faster on a tactile switch. Honestly if I haven't got anyone else to annoy, I kind of like a clicky switch like a tuned Kailh BOX Pink … but no amount of tuning seems to keep those things from ghosting after about six months. Disappointed. Currently driving some Akko jelly pink switches. Better than I expected.
maybe im a weird one, but i combine holy panda with gateron blue bottom housing, might be too tactile so need to lube the leg the result was more tactile/snappier holy panda with lots of the bottom out range remove, sound quieter and deeper too
I actually have a gk61 that came with optical gat browns. I removed the metal leaf that gives it tactility since it's not needed for actuation. I then lubed the switch with super lube and it's literally the smoothest switch I've ever used
I did something similar, put gat yellow springs and stems in cream housings with films and a timy bit of lube (on spring and leaf) called em lemonchellos
I achieved better sound on my KB by using a mix of Krytox 205 and 105 lube on the switches. BTW you don't need to film the switches because the NKCs top housing is pretty tight so it doesn't make any big difference.
I think the reason people throw cream stems in other housings is the same as using Halo stems for HPs, they both have slightly longer stems which change the bottom out sound in whatever housing they're thrown in. I love how these pop but didn't like the strong tactility of HPs, need to get me some creams and throw them in cherry housings:))
I cant help but noticed that the bottom of the creams that it is 3 pin and 5 pin. Was there a purpose of the clipped legs? Or where they switches from another board that required 3 pins.
You can, but the sound won't be as clacky! If you use the Cherry MX black housings, and if you drop cream stems in there, you're creating something closer to the black cherry pies actually. JWK lower housing, Cream Stem and Cherry MX top! Another good switch.
Hi Brandon! The long one has more potential energy at top, and helps the switch feel much tighter and a bit "heavier" Vs. the shorter spring of the same weight! After I tried out the long versions, they became my favorite for linear switches now!
Hi, it's my first time making a frakenswitch and 1 of the 4 legs of the top housing aren't locking onto the bottom housing after I added a layer of 0.15mm film. Is it fine to leave the switch like that?
Speaking of the Gateron Blue housings, you could totally fling some Halo stems into those and get Holy Gats. Sharper tactility than HP’s and less post-travel. Tho Gat blues with linear stems remind me of Invyr Panda linears, and not in a good way.
Interesting video, thanks man! hows the quality on the olivia clones? also do you plan on covering more budget hotswap kits like gamakay k61, k66, yc66 etc.. thanks again
Hi randy! The clones are surprisingly decent. The legends are not as crisp, but overall feel is very thick and hefty and have great sound. I do plan to budget a few budget kits soon! I recently acquired a budget optical hot-swap to review. Will be out soon!
Hi ChronicleZhang! I did a google search and then got them off aliexpress. The vendor name was g-mky I believe... I was curious to see how it would be, but turned out surprisingly OK! One day, I'll replace with the GMK when I can get my hands on a set that's not selling for 350+ lol

Summing up: Don't throw your brown away, keep their housing and use the stem and top house of the cream, with cherry springs.
Hi Cactus! Thank you for watching and the summary!
I would actually keep the Gateron springs personally, I like the 55g springs of the Browns a lot for some reason
These sound lovely, it would have been nice to have a normal sound test of the creams for reference though.
Hi INTR1NSIC! Thank you for your comments! Will keep that in mind for the future!

Can u make more switch combination videos plzz
Hi wahida! I'll look into that! So many switches out there lately haga
Another great video!
Thanks! I appreciate it!
How do you think yellows would sound in the cream housing thinking the name could be „banana cream“ or something like that
That would be pretty interesting! I assume slightly scratchy tho... The NK cream housing needs some breaking in :)
if u use tactile gat switches would it feel slightly tactile since tactile leafs are made to make the overall switch more tactile?
I achieved better sound on my KB by using a mix of Krytox 205 and 105 lube on the switches. BTW you don't need to film the switches because the NKCs top housing is pretty tight so it doesn't make any big difference.
Thank you for that suggestion Minx2525! Will try that out!

Hi Shibuya! I appreciate the comments! Will keep trying and more content to come!
I tried lubbing and filming i put it on my tofu 65 its sounds super poppy tyx for the tip
how about the sound of the rest of the remainder of the parts
Will keep that in mind next time! I have the durock Pom switch review coming up and will include that!
I think the reason people throw cream stems in other housings is the same as using Halo stems for HPs, they both have slightly longer stems which change the bottom out sound in whatever housing they're thrown in. I love how these pop but didn't like the strong tactility of HPs, need to get me some creams and throw them in cherry housings:))

Good luck! Let us know how it turns out!
bro keep up the good content.
Thanks Tahzeeb! More to come!
Would you be able to white and clear housing and then just add a stem from another switch? Would it sound the same?
Yeah the sound would be similar, except the top out may be a bit different. The stem would have to be a long pole like the ones from the NK Cream
Love these f*coin tutorials man, holy keep this up
Thanks for watching and for the comments! Will have more content coming soon!
can i request it to do also these with Cherry brown... coz i do have them and i like the sound of creams
I think you'll get a similar impact, since the cream stems are longer and make more clack than the standard cherrys!
Nice. Hope you can also do budget keyboards
Hi Mimoe! I'm currently working on what I can do to further improve the nk65 ee. Hopefully I'll have content on that soon!
I cant help but noticed that the bottom of the creams that it is 3 pin and 5 pin. Was there a purpose of the clipped legs? Or where they switches from another board that required 3 pins.

How is the tactile bump compared to other tactile switches you've tried?
Hi JJX05! When I built out my creamerons, the result was a linear switch! I hope that helps!
Can you do these with leftover mx browns instead of gats?
You can, but the sound won't be as clacky! If you use the Cherry MX black housings, and if you drop cream stems in there, you're creating something closer to the black cherry pies actually. JWK lower housing, Cream Stem and Cherry MX top! Another good switch.
How does the TX long spring compare to the TX short spring at the same weight?
Hi Brandon! The long one has more potential energy at top, and helps the switch feel much tighter and a bit "heavier" Vs. the shorter spring of the same weight! After I tried out the long versions, they became my favorite for linear switches now!

Does it work with cherry mx Browns?
Speaking of the Gateron Blue housings, you could totally fling some Halo stems into those and get Holy Gats. Sharper tactility than HP’s and less post-travel. Tho Gat blues with linear stems remind me of Invyr Panda linears, and not in a good way.
can I do this with my Gateron Browns? I wanted to make a Holy Gat but with light tactility
0:40 ...what do you mean by that??
