I Upgraded a $99 Keyboard (For MKBHD)

[@mkbhd]

This is the most I've ever learned about keyboards in 10 minutes. Great video, just subscribed!

[@DailySetupTech]

Thank you so much!!! It really means a lot! 😆

[@BbboyMuppet]

Would love to see a short colab video where Marques compares the modded keyboard to his current one :D

[@hoboerenisbestwifuinaot4927]

lmao- but same

[@felixkruip]

Just wanna say how amazing it is that you are supporting and promoting smaller KZbinrs. You both ROCK!

[@austin65432]

Dude… same. The GOAT of KZbin Tech even loves this channel

[@TheInspirationalMind]

Came here after MKBHD’s tweet. Holy crap. Your production quality is top-notch. I have never been this entranced by a video on keyboards! I kind of want to make one like this now...

oh no... RABBITHOLEEEE!!! r/mk is literal hell but heaven you should peep it lol. Also watch your wallet...

[@troels_rl2475]

The silicon mod is actually really genius. This will become popular.

[@troels_rl2475]

@Blueisoji Yes, but it won't fit your keyboard perfectly like doing a silicon mold would, that's why it's genius.

[@GatsuRage]

fun fact... old keyboard (prior and after early 2000s) used to always come with these silicons things out of the box (it would also be the spring of the button within these in some cases)

[@Snic]

The mod isnt completely unheard of, there are even ones that come shipped with one like the nk65 or one if my favourite recent keyboard the ikki68 aurora. I also did it with my keyboard and can say it is very nice and pretty easy to do as long as you use the correct silicone

[@Zetl3D]

Thanks!! :D

[@rayhanalam3101]

The sound at the end is so therapeutic love it.

[@adambuzzeo]

This is by far the most impressive before and after i have ever heard on a keyboard mod video. Typically the end result is not worth the work but i can see why this is. Also, your production quality, straight forward script, and calm demeanor indicate a channel miles ahead of where you currently are. The effort you put in shows and will pay off with results i'm sure of it. Keep up the good work man. Maybe try slowing down when you talk just a little bit though :)

[@prcvl]

They're browns and he made them slightly worse reds Edit: They're still scratchy af and you prob don't even feel the tactile bump

[@unfotunategaming]

Very few K2 mod videos are worth the time, but this is great. ABSOLUTELY doing the silicon mod

[@chickadddee]

The word you were looking for is "sets". After the silicone mixture sets. This is when the combined ingredients in the mixture change permanently and it is ready to be used. :) I enjoyed this video, thank you!

[@polterghosty]

Literally the sound i’ve been trying to find for years now. I would totally pay you to customize one! Great work!

[@datjp]

Man, the production/editing quality of your videos is insane. Definitely keep it up! I’m also glad to find more keyboard/tech related KZbinrs! 🙌🏽

[@LukePollack]

Dude, the production quality is top notch! Well done!

[@nutellajunkie8848]

Even the automatically generated subtitles at 11:45 applauded for this amazing result!

[@deepanshuagarwal1628]

I love how everything is consciously picked, detailed and executed. There are very few, you even topped MKB.

[@duanepo9099]

Nice!! The DIY Silicone is 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥

[@brycequerubin9333]

Everything in this video was so high quality! Editing, videography, lighting, commentary. And the sound test!? These other youtubers need to step they game up

[@serabc98]

it's incredible how a small channel can have incredible quality, congrats men!

[@ab_31000]

Just saw the video from MKHD's Studio, looking where he got it. So you are the one who made his keyboard, I thought this was much more expensive. Good job!

[@DailySetupTech]

To be honest, the total cost ended up being higher than $99 because of the extra stuff I used to make sure he liked it. But you can get a Keychron K2 and do these mods relatively easily by using less parts.

[@TechBeard]

Sounds so much better after the upgrades! Great job dude!

[@DailySetupTech]

Thanks!!

[@ruienkoh]

I've only started looking at mech keyboards and I follow MKBHD, so when this popped up, I was super surprised. Great video, might consider getting this Keychron as my first mech!

[@akirathearchibald7958]

Dont ever stop making your videos with High quality, even if your channel grows! Amazing how high quality it is

[@bagds0]

I followed this video step by step on my Keychron k14 (except the foam between the plate and PCB). As a first-timer it took me around two days to get it all done but wow-I'm totally blown away by the results!

[@BlissOn47]

Omg his gestures and editing are so extra. Love it

[@lwendt220]

This channel is a hidden gem, such high quality. I see lots of subscribers in your future :)

[@iamJaekwondo]

The "AFTER" sound is heaven to my ears...i can listen to that sound all day 24/7 lol

[@rosamelcachoful]

Man this video is worth the sub. Thanks for the last part of the video showing extra switches, that makes me love ink blacks.

[@DailySetupTech]

Upgrading the switches is definitely worth it but I didn't want to do one of those keyboard upgrade videos where they replace the entire keyboard so I kept the browns and only changed the keycaps because of the MKBHD Theme. :)

[@shanmango]

Was not expecting the silicone mould. Great idea!

[@brianstitt1157]

This was by far one of my favorite videos that I've watched so far on mechanical keyboards. I've been on the fence about this keyboard and this video helped me see its potential. Very informative. You did a fantastic job and the sound is SO SO nice. Thank you for this video.

[@may3ck]

The sound makes my ears satisfied! Top-notch quality

[@TheemILYvm]

Idk how I feel about the silicone dampener but the end result was very nice. Good job on this! Budget builds are hard but you really nailed it

[@christianchason3777]

[@justanotherpxrson]

okay but im surprised how decent that board sounds stock, wow. nice video!

[@TheGameFoxBrother]

How do you only have 725 subs? Amazing video man, so excited to see more!

[@gwegshirehosen2473]

I wasn't really sure if you were joking or not at 4:04, but when silicone is done and is at full strength, people usually say it is "cured" or "it is done curing." Great video! :D

[@DailySetupTech]

I actually didn't know what the word was, thank for letting me know! :D

[@lia_fei_]

The amount of knowledge I just gained on keyboards is incredible 🤯 Well done!! I can tell you know what you’re talking about and I love how you explained every step of the process. The silicone mould was such a great idea. Also your editing... just wow 🤩

[@DailySetupTech]

Thanks!! I’m still learning every day

[@sirennic]

Incredibly satisfying video and extremely high quality!

[@bjmaldonado]

This video definitely needs more views. I was completely against MX Browns until I saw this video and heard them lubed and filmed. You may have just made a believer out of me haha

[@qcxue8807]

All this hard work just for satisfying sound? Nailed it 😎

[@sahanweerakoon2172]

The THOCK is strong with that spacebar

[@khanhthai5314]

There's a problem that Keychron K2 using plate-mounted stablilizer so I believe that your band-aid and cliped almost means nothing. It only works for pcb-mounted stablilizer. You have to band-aid into you plate to make it more consistant. Anyway, still an amazing video men, Great editting and presentation.

[@deentje92]

you are a life saver! been looking for a new keyboard and my eye is falling on this exact one. the main problem i have with these mechanicals is the sound. this is exactly what i was looking for in terms of sound and somewhat feel that comes with it!! a ton of reviews and tips and tricks and all that but you are the first i come across that absolutely nailed it. this video actually got me over the fence of buying one and actually tearing it apart. im not that much of a tech guy so wat kind of trying to avoid that. after seeing this and knowing the result i was looking for is achievable, i will take the risk! hehe. great vieo man!

[@fatalradius]

Amazing before and after! Great job!

Editing is cleannnn. Got this recommended to me thanks to the algorithm, glad it did! Keep it up.
