@johnpaulgonzalez9016 Жыл бұрын
A friend of mine has this board and tried so many mods to make it thocky, he has cream yellows and even feker matchas but he can't seem to make it thock since the board makes it poppy, but he said he switched the stabs from screw in to plate mounted and it really made the difference
@Ferakeebs Жыл бұрын
I agree with your friend. The fact that the stabs are screwed in and stabilized is super important in the sound. I've never tested a Feker switch, but the well-lubricated Milky Yellow are a game changer for me here. Maybe he could also try a force break mod (small piece of tape around screw hole on the top or bottom case) to avoid any parasitic noise coming from the case.
@johnpaulgonzalez9016 Жыл бұрын
@@Ferakeebs that was the first thing he was excited about and tried it since it was his first aluminum board. He tried every mod possible until he tried the stabs. The lessened resistance to vibration due to the screw in really made thocky switches like the cream yellows poppy but since he replaced it with plate mounts, the pcb loosened and it really made the difference in sound profile.
@Xander_t4 ай бұрын
what made you lube the switch stems? Doesnt that usually make the switches feel mushy?
@Ferakeebs4 ай бұрын
To me it depends of quantity of lube and how you want your switch sound like. I only apply a really thin layer of lube on them. I try on the first one, if it's mushy I don't apply on the stem of the other.
@kevink2859 Жыл бұрын
How did you manage to get it sounding that much thockier!? Do you reckon it was mainly the tape mod that did it or was it also the switch lube?
@Ferakeebs Жыл бұрын
To me, the main think appear to be the switch lube because the case has already foam in it. (I made a quick test without the tape mode off-camera). The tape mode helps to achieve a slightly deeper sound and it's the cherry on the top.

très intéressant et propre la vidéo, je viens de me lancer dans le hobby et j'ai été intrigué par une chose, comment est ce que tu écris tes accents, tu as fait des macros ou juste tu les mets pas pendant le test de vitesse de frappe? je trouve ta fuidité de frappe ouf tu connais grave bien le layout iso fr meme sans légendes sur les keycaps
@Ferakeebs Жыл бұрын
Merci pour tous ces compliments ! Ca fait super plaisir ! ☺ Les keycaps sont en Qwerty mais le clavier est configuré en AZERTY sur le PC (ou le Mac en fonction de la machine que j'utilise) donc les accents sont placé au même endroit qu'un clavier "classique". Encore merci ! J'avoue que certains test de frappe sont catastrophiques et il me faut parfois 10 prises avant d'avoir un résultat correct 😅

For lubing the switches. Would you recommend just using the krytox 205g0 for the switches and the springs?

I used to lubricate the springs with 205g0 but it's not very effective. Lubrication isn't uniform and takes a long time. Here I lubricated the springs with GPL 105.

The Akko website states that the QMK / VIA support is only for the international version. Does that mean the ISO version doesn't have this feature? Does your version of the keyboard have QMK / VIA support?
@Ferakeebs Жыл бұрын
It was not out of the box for me. I didn't notice this before I bought it... But on their website, you can find a JSON file to import into VIA for the keyboard to be detected. It was a bit confusing, but once I'd done it, I was able to reconfigure the keyboard as I wanted. It's probably the same for QMK but I didin't test with this one.

Yes, but it's important to remember that we're talking about a DIY kit of a 75% keyboard with an aluminum chassis. Prices are starting to fall in this market. We're starting to see other kits arriving in this price range with products of this quality (or better), but it's not yet the majority. And this Monsgeek is still very competitively priced for this type of product, in my opinion. But I totally understand that not everyone has that kind of money to put into a keyboard. It's totally normal.
