Another excellent video! Thank you for making such detailed tutorials. I'm getting into keyboard modding with my kids and these are our go-to for ideas and guides.
For all the people who do not have the lubing station or are just very lazy to lube the switches, for almost the same amount of price u can try to get yourself some akko pre lubed swiches, thats what I did and it worked as magic
Great! I've been wanting to see a modding guide about this keyboard! Honestly, I was expecting GK61 first and then this keyboard probably sooner basing on your community post days ago. I'm really happy to see this vid drop and I hope I can mod mine sooner or later too!
Just bought this for $21! I have Rakk Pluma which is a 68%, dual mode but I've always wanted a compact one instead. Anw, I had a hard time pulling the switches and I ended up damaging them but I'm planning on switching the stock switches to Akko Jelly Black switches though and I must say that Fizz's stabs are pretty decent! It is more stable than my mental health.
Awesome. Love your modding guides. Really helps me out, and i'm sure helps a lot of other people as well! Thanks for all your hard work on these videos! Love them!
I followed this tutorial last year while spiraling out after getting broken up with. Doing better now though and getting back into keyboard modding! This keyboard is still my best sounding one even with more expensive keyboards, and this tutorial was easy to follow. Keep up the good work! 👹
Bought this off this video and modded it half to death. Akko CS Lavenders (lubed) Switch foams under each switch Tape mod, one layer of scotch electrical tape and then 3 layers of masking tape Dielectric grease on the stab wires and then medical tape to reduce wiggle, clipped them with nail clippers And some cheap PBT keycaps. Sounds and feels like a $200 keyboard now! Loving this board so much
i got this same keyboard a couple of months ago and modded it under 80 dollars it was well worth the price if people are out there looking for there first budget keyboard mod this is a good keyboard besides that stock stabilizers everything else was good (Ps) take your timmmmmmmmmmmmmme if you rush you will mess up and destroy something
What a timing! Totally need this video And the keycaps are perfect, my fave color I'm waiting for this keyboard to arrive next week! I might do this customization in future Edit: I got it last 12/17/21 and I love it!! Now I'll buy some modding things in the future. I'm kinda lazy to do it this month lol
This is almost the way! I got a similar k630 for 37€ from amazon and plan to do the same bare tape mod (that's going to end up being very nasty in 2 years). There's no point adding 25€ of switches and 40€ of keycaps and end up paying 102€ while I could have grabbed an Akko 3068B that is way better for that price in every way. I also have 250€ keebs, it's just a value consideration, keep it either dirt cheap or get something good from the start imo
I recently got this keyboard after watching this and your review vid. I switched from a more expensive keychron k8 to this, It's so good for its price. I still have to get used to the layout and fn+ buttons though as its my first 60% layout board. I plan to mod it too using this video as a guide, thank you! I'm a fan of akko switches and was wondering if jelly black or silver would fit on the k617 fizz.
so from another video, someone mentioned they can be hotswapped w : Akko CS, Gazzew Boba U4/Bobagum, Glorious Pandas, KTT, Tecsee, Fekker. a bit late to the community, my brother has a keychron k8 too, imo doesnt seem that much worth the price so im planning on buying this one and modding it instead. wish me luck !!
@@huda.. thank you! and yeah I agree about keychron k8. My go to keyboards right now are a modded akko acr64 and the fizz which I have yet to mod. Good luck!
You’re video mod series has been exceptional 👍🥳🤩! Great job CTR! And your lovely assistant deserves a mention too 🤩😉 Loving the content as always. You should do a collar with your assistant 🥰😉 in some videos. The great thing about these videos’ is that by showing the modding of everything, you can choose how little or how far you’re willing to go with your own personal mod 👍😁. You don’t need to mod everything as most keyboard enthusiasts state. It’s up to the individual which is what makes it custom 🥳🥳.
@@raincandyu I now know how to remove it in one piece. 1. Get a better switch puller 2. Don’t force it to remove be careful 3. Use the switch puller and wiggle it so it will become loose then pull upwards I did this three steps and I successfully removed the switch in one place. Ngl this switch is kinda annoying.
@@He1ro-AMV i think it’s an issue with quality control. because i was talking to customer service and they were so rude when i said that but i’ve seen tons of ppl on the internet also saying that they’re accidentally breaking the switches because they’re so tight in the socket
@@raincandyu in my experience, outemo switches are very tight and hard to remove but for the price i can’t really complain. I also told this to the seller and it did nothing. The only way for me was to either remove the switch in one place or destroy it. the tightness also depends on the case (budget keyboards) and the sockets.
Okay..I know this is a really random thing to say but, WHY IS THE GIRL JUST STANDING WITH HIM AND SHE IS JUST SMILING, LIKE SHE ISN'T EVEN SAYING ANYTHING! ALL SHE DOES IS LOOK AT HIM AND AFTER SHE JUST SMILES AT THE CAMERA! I MEAN ISN'T IT WEIRD?!
Ok I’m going to write this for no reason only if the one and only consumer review replies to this I want to ask if you can do a phantom 87 modding guide BUDGET MODDING
Do you think that the underglow on the custom keycaps is good enough? I ordered a set of clone GMK analog dreams but I really like the RGB on this board and the custom settings you can do through the software and I was wondering if you think that putting custom keycaps without the light shining through the letters is worth it.
im using k617 fizz as my gaming keyboard just modded it with lubed akko match green switch and tape mode 3 layer and foam mod it sound really amazing love it . stabilizer i keep it stock just add medical tape on it on the stabilizer on the pcb. before the mod it has the spring alike sound its quite annoying after the mod all is solve . very like the mod

Switch foams under each switch
Tape mod, one layer of scotch electrical tape and then 3 layers of masking tape
Dielectric grease on the stab wires and then medical tape to reduce wiggle, clipped them with nail clippers
And some cheap PBT keycaps.
Sounds and feels like a $200 keyboard now! Loving this board so much
can you upload a sound test
Great vid i love the design at your side it looks like a girl but its moving it looks very real 10/10👏👏
Why that girl was always there infront of the camera without doing anything....irritating fellow

Good point.
Just so you know if your doing just the tape mod and the PE foam mod you don't have to take your switches off.
Love ur vids! Very underrated leep up the hard work u deserve Many more subssss
i wish the female model in this video could talk a little bit. 🛐
I just bought my fizz 2 days ago. I am excited to Mod this
Im so scared of removing the switches they're hard af to pull
shes like your presentation partner when you present
happy 100k subs man

It would be entertaining to see Hayley build a keyboard all by herself

The way she smiled at him ♥️♥️🔥😎 broo
You definitely deserve 3m subs.
my menu key is not working i even changed the switch still not working but the led on the menu is working .Any solution?

Do k530 🤔
Another great modding video!
Babe, I'm gonna need you to stand next to me and stare the side of my head.
Omgg i thought the same i felt so uncomfortable
I love watching this. But I don’t think I’d have the patience for it to do it myself. 🤣
Do you think something like TTC Gold Pinks would be able to work with the keyboard?
bro this keyboard is so good!
I plan to get some redragon pudding keycaps in white and put them on a draconic black on the sides to make it look cooler
Cant wait to mod my rk61 after i get these keycaps for Christmas
I just broke 1 switch because of removing it.. any tip to remove it in one piece? It’s super hard to remove

@@He1ro-AMV yeah it’s really bad but i can’t rlly complain since it’s still cheaper to replace the switches than to build a rgb custom keyboard ;-;
Love these great reviews! Keep it up!👍
my fizz red switches are so hard to pull off i swear aaaaaa
OMG my comment has been heard hahaha, Thank you for this!
Suprised by the switch choice, and in a good way. Due to your previoud content i expected a bad take. Good job
What switches did he use?
@@BeEthical1 Stock ones I think? dunno I wrote this a year ago.
just buy a keychron v series

Can you use cardboard instead of foam
Nice video Bro. New subscriber from Perú
Just Lubbed switches and sounds so good!
mine literally just came in pog
Thank you! I was thinking of buying this keyboard
isn't there interference with north- facing leds and cherry profile keycaps?
I am so thankful dude 🥳
the custom sounds okay but the stock one is really nice too.
Hey man after I clipped my stabs from k552 the spacebar and right shift won't bump out (it's stuck there) pls help

im using k617 fizz as my gaming keyboard just modded it with lubed akko match green switch and tape mode 3 layer and foam mod it sound really amazing love it . stabilizer i keep it stock just add medical tape on it on the stabilizer on the pcb. before the mod it has the spring alike sound its quite annoying after the mod all is solve . very like the mod
Love the video it would be cool to see a modding guide when you use aqua king switches
Modded mine too stock everyting but changed the keycaps to olivia whites
Ok. The only problem is that we have to memorize where the delete button is , where f1-f12 key are and so on 😅.
This sounds so good
I have trouble pulling out the switches
amazing video, very detailed, thumbs up
what with the girl on the left?
You can try and put coins in the plastic to make it more heavy or premium, my friend tried it and it feels premium
Will the coins not rattle??
Just tape the coins down @deepti pathak
i wouldent suggest using the wrist wrest becasue you have risk of gaining carpel tunnel
Thank you for this video!!
