4 Months ago i bought a GMMK Pro and everybody told me to just get a QK75 or even a Q1. But i wanted the challenge after hearing that it needs a lot of love. I wanted to learn how i can change a board from scratch. I found out a lot and after trying 7 different types of switches, 3 stabs, 2 sets of Keycaps, 2 different plates and many many different mods, i learned so much and love the result of the board. A good friend, who''s years in the hobby tested it and couldn't believe the sound for this specific board.
Best tip in the hobby: Don't listen to all the shills! Just enjoy it and build what you like!
Definitely agree - and if you love it that’s all that matters! Thanks for stopping by!!
i did the same, at the time i started i bought a DROP CTRL, because that was my best option at the time for what i was going for and i knew it had flaws, which i didnt care for as i was just starting so i had to explore all the possibilities to form an opinion, and anytime i showed it, i was mostly told "get x, get y" "should have bought z", like, damn, my bad let me just turn back time and start over champ
i got quite a decent build out of it, modded it to all hell with all sorts of wacky solutions to it's very specific problems, loved that thing, and it is the build that got my friend into custom keyboards, i offered to mod his GK61 looking board, improved it as best i could but he always looked up to mine as the "high end" (for our context / budget), and when i upgraded to something beyond that (current build is a Tiger80), i was not using the CTRL at all, so i gave it to him, and now it is sitting at his desk and from time to time he tells me about it and how nice it is
Specs? I know it goes against your message but I'm curious
I promise you no matter what you do to a GMMK pro. its not as good as other boards that are cheaper or the same price lol.
@@prestonvarner611 Such comments mostly come from people who never even tried the board. And that's everything wrong with the hobby.
your vibes are mint.
my end game was sticking an r/mk sticker to my car, ordered 6 months before i got my license.
i knew right there, i had to take a breather and enjoy what i got.
Really appreciate that man, thank you!
Really great video!! Your content is super educational and interesting, and you're instantly got on my list of go-to people! (btw you look rlly nice in this video love the hair)
Wow, thank you - I really appreciate that!!
i've made it a habit to rotate through different mounting styles and enjoy it all, from top mount to plateless to gasket mount, so I don't really get bored of the my collection. I've reached a point now that I dont feel the need to go out and buy a new board anymore, unless it's something I really want. Great video!
Definitely the best way to go - thanks!!
From a gasket mount lover to a top mount :D Love your vids bro, keep em' up!
Thanks man!!
Almost 2 years ago I started getting into the whole keyboard thing, I bought some average gaming prebuilt and replaced it months later with a TM680 which I’m still modding to this day, honestly I can’t believe the amount of cursed shit I’ve tried and how good I’ve gotten that board to be so far. I’m glad I took my time with it, now I’m still waiting on my zoom65 (which I considered my endgame when I joined the gb) and now I’m in love with the envoy lmao. I simultaneously love and hate this hobby.
Also charo with no beanie is a totally different person lol
I entered the hobby because it satisfied my love of doing detailed work and tinkering on stuff. I started with the basics-bought myself a cheap board and modded it (until now I still do mod it when I want to experiment) and started with Milky Yellow Pros haha. But true enough, I started spring swapping, then moving on to other boards (and even getting my first GMK set-the only one I have). Through all of these, I realized that I don’t like thock and I prefer a clackier sound profile (this was when everyone was chasing thock). This is really a fun hobby (but can be expensive).
I like your videos and your approach to the subject.
Thank you!
Nice GATs bro, were into the same rabbitholes :))
I don't really take many useful information from your videos, but I absolutely love your accent and voice
Hahah appreciate that
I’m at the stage where I started learning Fusion360 to start designing my own boards. Don’t know if I’ll actually get any of them machined anytime soon but I will most definitely get some made in the future.
I vividly remember getting the Q1 in 2021 because it was recommended to me by my friends, but I wasn't satisfied with the metallic hollow sound the board had. I spent ages trying to figure out how to make it "thock" because it was the hot shit, and was successful through all kinds of mods and switches imaginable. 2 years later I figured out my end game is simply "clack", when I tried out the Earth65 at the store, I immediately fell in love. It was perfect for me right out of the box. It just took me 4 boards and an unhealthy sum of money. Nowadays I'm more conservative and only interested if the keyboard has a cool/unique feature.
I first enter the hobby around December 2021, I bought a rkg68, after that I updated to gmmk pro, and then i switched back to anne pro 2 , after this then I started to buy lot of board and switch varying from milky yellow- ttc wild, zakus, green jacket.... and I bought the geon f2, geon f1, mr suit, jelly epoch. I realize all of the board above aren't my actual love so I sold all of it and decided to buy a kohaku with a Vintage black burn-in 3million time and lube+film with gmk keycap now and I think this is my end game tbh
One of the biggest things for me is letting myself build what I want to build instead of just following all of the trends. I put case foam/dampening in almost every board. I love the sound. Even though the QK65 broke the entire hobby for a few months, I still love some PE foam. Just not on EVERY board. While trends can introduce you to cool new concepts and mods, you should just build the keyboard that YOU want to type on!
This is such a vibe. Couldn't have said it any better!
"I like yo cut G"
The trend part hit home I'm new very new but I like foams, I like more muted sound, I even snipped and sanded stems of my switches for a longer press as I felt the bottom out was too quick(long poles looking in disgust but I found old posts of people doing this after doing so) I'm also kinda lucky cause I get to take a lend of friends keebs and save money with my two keyboards while their stock could get you a few lavish holidays.
Switches are the most headache causing part I feel cause the opinions/reviews feel very trend based.
I started losing interest in keyboards when everything went towards pe foam, with a flex cut on every key. The marbly sounds was fun when it was just the jelly epoch, but every board after that was the same. The foam wasn't so much the problem, it's more that every pcb with foam needed a million flex cuts to stop the foam overwhelming the sound. Glad to see it's gone back to normal. I hate what flex cuts do to my precious mx brown or black on polycarbonate buils. Watched some recent sound tests and there's as no foam or tape, and a sigh of relief.
And for some reason I am now completely satisfied with a Razer 60% (Huntsman Mini). With a few changes to the keybinds this is something I'm perfectly ok with lugging around.
Pom blanks are always good. Just not always available in the colors you want
I follow the hype when i first start and try a lot of board but end up truly fall in love with singaboard both korn and kohaku (rip my wallet). both of them really bring out the best mx black sound IMO but I will give kohaku a better score than unikorn
I'm the opposite haha. Did the research and went all out on my first board. Besides from trying out a few switches, before ending up with L+F spring swapped hyperglide blacks I doubt I'll ever buy a board until my f1 breaks.
Can’t go wrong with an F1 hahah
@@Charo.mp4 For real! Took your opinion on it and grabbed it over the suit, it’s been amazing so far.
U REALLY went all out on ur first board holy
i must be the only one who hated their mx blacks lmao
@@Kiunnnn did you spring swap?
Spring swap ALWAYS
You’re not alone. I have L+F Vintage MX blacks on aluminum in a Unikorn and I am underwhelmed to say the least. I thought this was supposed to be endgame…
You're not alone
I like MX Blacks but they are not my favourite
Nice vid mate
Thank you!
No beanie video omg insane!!!)
This is my keyboard hobby journey in order anne pro 2, rk61, keychron k2v2, keychron q1v2 , rk100, keychron k8 pro, zoom65 EE V2
nice hair dude!
Haha appreciate it man!!
Awesome view of the hobby, i'm def juggling with it, fomo sucks
Thank you!!
so right now if i chase the "thock", i'll be different , got it
Imagine only one keyboard 😮. I want that life back.
What a time eh?! Thanks for stopping by man!
@@Charo.mp4 anyone bro your videos are always fun to watch
tbh at this point I'm just happy with one clacky keyboard and one foamy keyboard depending on the day
The play is always get a cheap hotswap and save for a better board. The options now are just incredible what you can get for your money and then once you secure that mid-high end board you give the cheap hotswap to your friend or family. Then run away from the hobby and save your money for a house and find a partner.
ummm...do you own cowboy boots?
Definitely the plan! And well spotted…hahah
Your funny as hell
Hahah thank you!
You can always save a lot of money by getting clones ;)
I feel so weird for enjoying the brass plate. The hard bottom out combined with tactile switches just feels more satisfying to me. Sorry, I will be taking my blasphemy somewhere else now
My main question is where do you find 1.5 TX stabs? Must be super rare xD
😭😭 COMPLETELY missed this
yo nice hair
Beanie where???
Disappeared for the 1k sub special!!
i say buy a multiple switch tester
Fuck zodiac signs, how do you people treat your Mx blacks?
This video perfectly reflected my keyboard journey lol, super relatable
Also wtf, nice hair!
Hahah thanks man!!
i still don't know what "ticking" means in regards to stabilizers
the mx blacks springs sounds gross
For real
@@Charo.mp4 when i first bought the mx blacks i thought i got scammed because the ones i bought sounded nothing like the ones in the sound but then i realised that they spring swapped them
i hate this hobby
