MY NEW KEYCAP SET: goblintechkeys.com/products/hipyo-jungle-plant-themed-keycaps
🥺👉👈Pleeeeeease🙏 try the Skyloong GK87 Pro. looks like the most innovative Keyboard out there. Pretty good dampening, hotswap(of course), "wired, BT, 2.4Ghz mode", HOTSWAP KNOBS, HOTSWAP SCREEN and ""Hi-Fi" Thocky Sounds". @HipyoTech
So this comes with Asus own designed NX Snow switches that cant be purchased separately. Which switch that u can buy would be actually the closest to those NX Snow switches?
Hey can you get the NX Snow switches just with the white Azoth version?
When spray painting, remove the tape when still "green". Should have taped over the rubber feet too or just skipped the plastic bottom. To get a really nice finish, you should sand with very fine grit between coats. And do at least three coats of paint, but probably better to 5+ of very thin coats. Then top off with three coats of clear acrylic. Don't sand after the last coat of acrylic.
Well, it was still green when he removed the tape. 😝
Thank you for this comment! I'm going to be painting my keyboard case and computer case soon. So I appreciate those tips!
I appreciate your stance that Brands can't change what you say, but I also like that Brands keep improving and sending their stuff to you so you can demonstrate. :)
Well said!
Really cool theme. It looks amazing and green spray paint definitely helped bring it all together.
Thank you! Cheers!
Those keycaps are gorgeous. If I was in the market for a new set of keycaps right now, they’d be a top contender.
Actually I was thinking of painting my keyboard case. So I was very glad to hear about your experience painting. So, Thanks to you and Nola, I am better prepared.
The two new NX switches, Cloud and Storm, are just Asus-branded Kaihl box switches. This is where the sound difference lies, boxes use a click bar rather than a click jacket, like a typical MX-style slider uses, entirely different mechanism where the acoustic properties differ quite a bit. The Storm will be in the Navy or Jade colors, as those have a thicker clickbar than the White or Pale Blue boxes had, the larger the spring wire diameter the deeper the click.
I've also seen some comment that the Storms don't quite sound like Navy/Jade, I'm curious if Asus got some kind of limited exclusivity to a new generation, considering Summer is a new switch color and _might_ be what's rebranded as the Cloud.
so you are saying the summer switch sounds most similar to the cloud he shows here?
i looked up the kaihl switches and the tactile red and speed silver sound much more similar than the summer switch.
would you say the kaihl tactile red is better than a akko jelly black for the azoth (thocc wise)? I’m really trying to change switches rn.
Thank you for your Guarding services, Nola!
Really like the color you choose foe the spray and of course your new keycaps! Please paint more often if possible
Thank you! Will do!
Oh that sounds so nice and you're right. It is kinda expensive in my book..love the mod, love the keycaps design.
Glad you like it!
Thank you for sitting there and guarding Hipyo as he unscrews the keyboard, Nola. Great job!
great vid. the painting was funny.
I liked the ASUS one so far.
Dude, you're a shocking painter! :D But I love your channel! I want to see you do some more painting mods, to get yourself skilled-up :)
Love your videos! Can you do a vid comparing all the new Hall effect boards that have recently come out/are coming out soon (DrunkDeer, Keychron, Monsgeek, etc.) vs. Wooting?
Great job Nola!
I have the original with Goblintech Coffee keycaps and love it. Feels really good and sounds great (overall).
Love the sound of those clicky switches!
Wanted to finally move past my old GMMK, so I picked up a Moonlight Azoth with the NX Snow switches a few days back and tossed on my set of first wave Cerakeys. I wasn’t too sure if I’d enjoy transitioning from tactile to linear, but I’ve been really enjoying it!
Are you in US or Europe because i cant find any retailer on european market
@@Revexet I found one in Lithuania, but I guess they shipping from Poland, US layout, ordered few days ago, should be with me in a week or so. But the price was dang high 270eurs. Hope it will last for ages.
Just bought the Scope II for work and gaming. Yes, I must have the numpad!
Plant themed Hipyo KEYCAPS!?
I used an original Azoth for months and it's what got me into the whole custom keyboard money drain hobby. One of my son loved it so much he stole it and I got a GMMK Pro which I modded with the Flex kit and I love (I know you don't like it but mine is phenomenal now, nice and bouncy but probably too muted for some). Since I have added multiple GMK67s I've built for friends, a Q1 Pro, a K8 Pro and I'm waiting on my Neo 65 and about to order that new Drop one as well. I have to initially blame Asus for the drain on my bank account but will probably have to pick this up as well... been using their motherboards since the 90s anyway so... The other blame goes to you and Betty, lol!
I love those keycaps and they should go perfectly with the new Drop with the green artsy top... guess I'll have to order both... thanks Hipyo for the additional bank account darin, lol :)
KeyCaps on order! :)
Dude im so glad u finally tried goblin keycaps
yes, these keycaps are so dope... all of my keyboards are greenish, and most keycaps that are green are horrible... these are amazing... gonna order next week... hope they're still in stock...
Very cool hippo man.
Hey, Hipyo! Maybe use your 3D printer to make a small bezel for the display so you can hide the marker. It could still even look partly stock and you can just use the same paint.
Wow those keycaps look great. They look really nice with the shade of green you chose for the keyboard.
That said, i am 99% sure that Kalih makes those specific types pf clicky switches. This is mostly due to the stem shape and that it sounds and kinda looks similar to a their Box style clicky switches like the Jades or Navys (which i think they copywrited but its been so long im not too sure).
On the v1 you unscrewed the keyboard slightly to improve the gasket performance, did you do the same for the v2?
I got the first version and ran into huge issues with double keystrokes, so I replaced all the switches myself. As RGB was important to me especially in dark lonely nights I choosed gateron fully transparent switches and I'm back in love again with my keyboard, it's even brighter than before.
I love the spray paint idea! Maybe try hydro dipping next?🤷🏾
the keycap set lowkey looks pretty clean
I need to know what the jungle keycaps look like with the “overgrowth” front plate for the Drop CSTM80. They seem like they might be perfect…
For painting. Sand, prime, paint and then remove the tape when it's still curing so it doesn't rip the paint edges. Other then that it's really pretty, too expensive but pretty.
Absolutely loved the video and the Azoth coming in white. Unfortunately, it's not available in Europe yet
Please do more custom keyboards where you include things like spray painting. It's really cool to see a keyboard embody the heart and spirit of the key cap set or color scheme.
I know it wasn't the best spray painting, but learning is a part of the fun for me watching your videos and maybe you could share some tips along the way. Keep up the amazing work 💪🏼🎉❤
Element-themed gaming keyboard reminds me of Element Gaming, had a bunch of peripherals named after periodic elements (I'm currently using a Carbon keyboard of theirs until I can find a hotswap ISO-UK TKL board I like, probably gonna get a keychron v3 in the end haha) \
I kinda like the font on those keycaps, got that 90s/00s futuristic look worthy of a techno album cover
Love it!
unless something has changed, the fastest 2.4GHz implementation used to be the one from the Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed
I bought the azoth brown switches after watching the previous video and love it stock from day 1...maybe someday I'll mod it but won't be anytime soon!
Great mod, Asus + Hipyo Tech for the win
Considering how you messed up the screen you could get that green pen you used to draw some leaves around the screen to make it look intentional.
Oh wow those switches sounds really nice
I tried it .. and it felt really.. REALLY GOOD ... the ROG NX Snow I mean
I got access here via the youtube Shorts. But it was with storm switches, not the snow switches here in the full video. I am wondering if they have actually manufactured the storm switches for sale
What screwdriver is that? Looks pretty useful. Link? Thanks!
Your modding made the keystrokes sound like raindrops on an umbrella instead, insane.
Which switches were used in the final build?
Hipyo!!!!! That keycap set is gorgeous!!! And oh, ALMOST perfect! Why no brown Esc and Enter key to match the SB?!?! Bruh….
Genuantly good content
I've been going down a rabbit hole of trying keyboards recently. Razer Huntsman Pro V3, SteelSeries Apex Pro, Logitech G Pro X. The Asus ROG Azoth has felt the best, and sounded the best to me out of all of them. I just wish it was a TKL. With that being said, is there a similar experience that could be had? Like of course I know it would need to be linear switches & double shot PBT keycaps. But what body could replicate the sound and feel I'm getting with the Azoth? I love how quiet, yet thocky it is. And I don't need the screen, but do appreciate the RGB rainbow effect. I don't need audio knobs or media keys either.
just get the azoth, trust
Hey! Maybe iam just bad are searching. But are those switches buyable? Without the whole Keyboard? Ilready own a rog azoth keayboard. But would like to try new switches. in this case, those NX switches. Thanks! :)
try the Royal Kludge H81, I think you'll really get a good video for the budgeters, and I'd like to knw your thoughts on it!
What kind of keycaps is compatible with this keyboard?
Thinking of geting this or the steelseries apex PRO tkl wireless
If it returns in nordic layout for the wooting tech
Watching you spray-paint the keyboard case, I just thought of something you should do. In the movie Hackers they spray-paint their keyboards, just like, completely assembled. You should do a mythbusters and try it just like the movie, and then how you think the best way to do it is.
I just completed and took a pic of a build... literally before watching this! I used it in my giveaway entry... I just hope no one wants a sound test 😜
Kailh makes all of the Azuth's switches. The clickies are a variation of the Jellyfish and the Box Navy
So do you know when the new model of the asus rog azoth will be available? Cause my local stores only sell the old model until now :)
I’m kinda digging the clicky switches, and I want to buy some. Hipyo make Asus sell the switches separately!
They are made by kaihl, the clickbar mechanism is really good (alps based click still better tho)
did the keyboard NOT come with a protective film on top of the little display?
what would have made painting less of a pain (basically ting)

By the way, if you don't reply, I might just send my keyboard's spacebar after you! 😂
For this price I wish they would get into the analog switches and 1 up Wooting with a 75% board and really good quality. Id buy it forsure. Atm I am waiting for the keycrhon version as Steelseries is a bit to gamer and only full size or tkl and wooting is too small for me.
Would it kill ya to include Command and Opt modifier keys for Mac users?
I looking to build a custom keyboard, But i have no idea what keycaps to get. What keycaps do you recommend for under 50 dollars, that are on amazon?
asus keyboards really good nice update I have the asus strix flare it's like your fingers will have muscles...it's hard.
Going for asus was an awesome decision, I love the nx snow switches.
Congrats hipyotech, u made my day better and made my keyboard spund worse
What is the wooting/hall effect? And what's the best keyboard for getting it? Thanks
I'm a complete noob with keyboards, I have the azoth nx snow and I want to change the keycaps should I look for?
I'm almost certain the MX Clickies are a re-colored Box White. They sound just like them.
You should make a video about the Ajazz Ak820. I have this keyboard and it sound very good for $50
You can silence the critics by getting Nola to paint it next time. It would be so cute to see her holding the spray can.
Much preferred the stuck sound and feels. That is too knocky. You any of you guy ever try they mods with noise cancelling headphones on?
I think if you genuinely try painting and customizing a board it would be really cool
Any video planned on the leobog hi75?
Hey, you should try out the Steel Series Apex pro keyboard with the magnetic switches
didn't you say releasing tension on the screws makes the casklet bouncy was this wrong? ;)
do you that kind of service of modding the keyboard?
uhhhhh why is the NX storm switch version impossible to find? does it even exist? i only see snow on the white ones, and the black ones dont even tell me the switches
How do the red switches and snow switches differ? Are they more/less silent? Bought the red switches now I'm wondering if I
Should exchange for the snow switches. Pls help!
Great video! I am looking to buy asus azoth with storm switches, but I can't find it anywhere. Any help?
The Glarses transitions really make this video pop for me. Did you do the vocals for that?
I did hahaha
@@HipyoTech I love it. Yours and his videos made me wanna get into the hobby. Just gotta find a good jumping off point for that sweet sweet thock
This or q1 pro as first "proper" finished custom platform?
you should do a review on the drunk deer a75
Any have suggestions of a similar sounding/feeling switch to the NX Snow? I think a big part of its sound profile is the POM bottom housing.
Gateron Lunar Probes are the only linear ones I found with 1.8mm actuation, 3.6mm max travel and 45g of force. They sound pretty good in youtube tests but it depends on the keyboard in general so I'm not sure how they'll sound on the Azoth. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more options but so far I haven't found any.
Have you done a Gamakay k61pro? I have one and want to know if it's worth modding. I would really like to get it thocky. I havee the version that has their crystal linier switches.
just curious but why do you keep using painters tape for the tape mod. this is a fire hazard. just use electric tape. also, stop putting things in keyboards that have moisture in them. pcb's get warm and moisture in a material inside the keyboard will result in condensation on the electronics.
Great video...unfortunately i can't fint the Asus rog azoth moonlight white with the NX snow switches and UK layout. :(
Stock sound is better for me. But the color I like that nature elemental theme :D 😅
I like the sound of that click.
looking forward to when the moonlight variant becomes available to the public
Its available now at microcenter
@HipyoTech Hey can you get the NX Snow switches just with the white Azoth version?
Just wondering when I'll be able to get an upgrade from my zebronics transformer which is a so called "mechanical keyboard"
Hey guys, this dilemma needs your expertise and advice, azoth vs scope II 96, which one to buy
Hipyo, what are good switches to buy
The tape mod will forever be the best mod
Something I like about these clicky switches is that you can actually hear the click rather than those hollow scratchy extra noise from the razer keyboards. It's almost like the bottoming out is silent, and only the click is heard (at least from my headphones and from hipyo's mic). I wouldn't mind those clicky switches if I'm being completely honest. But ofc linear gang on top!
Are they still using that awful steel plate? Was hopeing they'd change that to polycarb or fr4
i have the original rog azoth and i wonder if i can make my keyboard to sound tocky as your green azoth that you mod, if i can, what did i have to do to my keyboard?
hahaha you're very entertaining, liked and subscribed. OOOOOO YYYEAAAHHH
Only bettered by WWWWOOOOOOTING (singing voice)
10/10 content keeb it up
Which sounds better nzxt red,brown,blue???pps reply sir
Those clicky switches look exactly like every Kailh clicky switch, which sound 10x better than Cherry / Gateron Blues.
@HipyoTech can you make a light blue themed version of this keycap set. TYY
