[@gothnate]

There is a Bluetooth and aluminum chassis variant available, too, for $70. It was $50 a few weeks ago. I believe someone in the reviews said the board with the red switches is the only definitely hot-swappable version, while the others are a hit or miss.

[@SmugRaichu]

This board is great for having a cheap mechanical board that you can put in your bag and not worry too much about. I've got the Bluetooth model, with some extra foam, tape modded, and with a swap to my preferred Box Royals with some cheap PBT keycaps, and it's honestly pretty great for typing and writing on the go using my phone. Ultimately, for my first dive into keyboard modding and customizing, I don't think there was a better way to spend $100 or so overall

[@strayiggytv]

Same. I got mine for $20 shipped second hand and spent the other 20 I woulda paid for new for a hard case. Totally worth it imo.

[@gchungus]

Tbh as a broke beginner who got a very similar keyboard off Amazon for around the same price, I was shook seeing that just *keycaps * cost more than my entire board 💀

This is what I was looking for. Something I can use with my iPad in class. Wasn’t sure if it was worth to spend a bit more and get something different.

[@siegeturtlez3497]

The rk68 was the first keyboard I modded and I can definitely recommend these keyboards for introduction/budget modding, it was quite simple and easy to work with, and the end results always sounded and felt quite nice

[@scxrpion3828]

As a person who wasn't even into keyboards (membrane guy until now), I saw a rk68 on sale for 22 bucks and I grabbed it. I have no idea which mods I should do but I'm definitely gonna do something.

Bought the RK68 and threw in some lubed Dark Amber T1’s and love it. Currently using unlubed Hippo’s and its nice too

[@cadeboxed]

If you did the tape mod what tape should you use electric tape or painter's tape I have been wondering ever since I got the keyboard.

[@Ink2Screen]

RKs are actually overall pretty great for beginners. They're cheap, as you said, and they sound really good once you've modded. Would I recommend someone who just wants a keyboard to immediately type on? No. But would I recommend it to someone who wants to start modding or knows the rough idea of what they want their end game to sound like? Yes! It helps you get more comfortable with both the basic idea AND some of the skills needed. So yeah, RKs are pretty great that way. Thanks for the video. :D Side note: Boards that came out in 2022 seem to all have the foam installed by default. Mine, bought in 2021, did not. Sadge.

[@Sajid-lp9ss]

my rk98 has a silicone pad between the metal plate and pcb and has a foam on the bottom. it sounds great even on abs keycaps. the stabilizers are also factory lubed

[@LetThemIn]

I bought my rk61 about a week ago after watching this video and assumed it had the foam. I went to mod it today and it did not have the foam lol no big deal since I had some foam laying around I used just weird how they randomly put it in. Maybe if they run out in the factory they just don't use it?

Yep. I bought this board months ago. Lubed browns, got those stabs, swapped to pbt key caps and added that thin white foam. Sounds fantastic. Next will be this cheap 12 key, two knob hotswappable keypad. I’m going to grab some low profile switches and keys and swap out the knobs for something shorter as well.

But when I heard the sound at the very end of the video ky jaw dropped, i didnt know it can sound that much better than what I already have which is already amazing for me

[@tyrosine87]

The RK61 is weird. Pretty sure there's a non hotswap version and I have a Bluetooth/2.4 GHz with dongle version. The listings on Amazon are confusing.

[@TadeoDOria]

So nice to see you cover RK boards! I have an RK96 and my partner an RK100 (RK is one of the few brands available in Argentina). Definitely not the best of the best, but all things considered they're amazing mechanical keyboards for the price, especially being hot swap. The stock keycaps aren't great but RK also offers custom keycap sets which improve a lot the experience as they sound a lot better without even having to open up the board.

I've modded 4 of these now. All the wireless versions. This board is honestly great when modded. Dampened, tape modded, lubed, and stabilizers clipped and tuned. Its great, gave a pair of them away as gifts and I now have offers from other friends to mod their boards lol. The rk reds respond pretty well to lube (though I changed the springs on all the rk switches I've lubed to stock Gateron brown springs I have leftover) and the stabilizers are smoother than you expect.

[@m3talhe4d72]

honestly I kinda liked how plasticy and horrible it sounded at first!! it sounded nostalgic, like the keyboard my nan used to type on!

[@eleanorp3502]

Warms my heart watching this. I spent about a year watching videos in this community hoping to get a mechanical board for myself, and recently purchased my first board, the RK61, deliberately with it being a budget board to get started as a complete beginner. I also swapped out the RK switches for Gateron Milky Yellows, so seeing a KZbinr with way more experience I admire doing the same thing is great! I went for some cherry profile PBT keycaps (haven't had any interference issues), a custom cable and although I have done a little modding to the case, that Kilmat mod might be worth a shout!

[@excxssive]

I have the RK84 (literally just the 75% version of the RK61) and it's a great keyboard, however it PINGS everytime I type, which is really annoying. what should I do?

[@scrumptium1459]

I’ve only been able to make one custom keyboard and that was the rk61. With milky yellows (lubed) and stock stabilizers, it came out to 90 bucks, and it sounds and feels AMAZING

[@bleepbloop-v2w]

just a hypothetical if youre spending this much on a keyboard already and or replacing the switches and keycaps anyway. Wouldnt it just be better to buy somhing like the ciy tester 68, switches of ur choice and keycaps? i believe that would more or less ammount to the cost of one RK61 atleast where I live,maybe 5-10 dollars more depending on how expensive your keycaps and switches are

[@d1kgaws12]

Boards like these are probably made to help get people with more time than money into the mechanical keyboard hobby. If you want something really cheap and inexpensive to mod the crap out of, boards like these are good options. If you have more money than time and you want something amazing out of the box, 100% go with something else.

TLDR; Rich whiny KZbinr complains about a budget mechanical keyboard being budget.

[@gail_blue]

South facing leds are terrible, because they don't actually led (illuminate the legends), and you can just buy switches (like the kailh box v2) that don't interfere. And the only keycaps that do interfere with north facing leds are GMKs which cost $150 vs a $50 keyboard.

[@SurrenderNein]

Even the most polished gem began life as a lump in the ground. Cheap doesn't always mean bad. Sometimes it just means there wasn't the appropriate amount of effort invested. This is an excellent example of what a little effort can do, and how even a modest effort can surprise you.

[@Hekovashi]

It wasn't a "little" effort tho, more than half of component was replaced, with what, essentially, makes its sound good-swithes and keycaps, and it costed more than keyboard itself.

[@monmondeamoi4035]

i bought it in iso fr, but the price aside (twice yours), the app is a non sense, always canceled my presets personnalised rgb cant be kept if you unplug the keyboard And even if the keys presets are registered in your keyboard, if you plug it on the pc, he will be reset... thats my first mechanical so i fell in love with the sound, yep the switches need some lube but i didnt have the same horrible sound as yours

[@MangoGalaxyYT]

The RK61 is actually a very solid starter keyboard for modding. It’s cheap, great case for the price, and it’s very easy to mod making it beginner friendly. I have a modded RK84 with Akko Carolina blue keycaps, tape modded, replaced the switches with hand lubed ktt kang whites, and lubed the stock stabs (stock stabs are very good on the rk84) and it’s very creamy. The RK line of keyboards are all similar in design, except for the form factor. I really do recommend buying one of these (MAKE SURE YOU MOD IT OTHERWISE IT’S BAD).

I have the wireless version of this board,black with yellow/orange led's. I love it. I have modded it pretty extensively. I have a case I designed on fusion 360 and had 3d printed. It sits neatly over my laptop's keyboard with no interference. Its a great entry modding board. Durock stabs make a huge difference. The stock stabs wouldn't fit snug in the case so the upgrade made a huge difference. I just went back to the stock switches and with a heavy lube, the brown switches are actually surprisingly good.

[@patrickengman]

I just picked up the RK61 and having come from using a Red Dragon Kumara K551, the RK61 is pleasantly quieter. I had some sound deadening foam leftover from installing a speaker in my car and while I had to trim it to be thinner in order for everything to screw back together, the mod really dampened the intensity while thickening the sound. Almost like a different keyboard altogether!

Also, you get me hooked on modding, i had this board before knowing about modding xD G pro yellow switches, pudding PBT keycaps, some lube, bandit mod for stabs, foam, tape mod and so on. This sounds and feels really good and this is one budget 60% boards with a Iso-De layout which I need. Not many budget-modding-friendly boards are available with this layout. So for someone looking for a budget board and want to start modding, this is highly recommended.

[@skweetis]

Something that never gets talked about in these "I bought this janky keyboard off Amazon" videos is that the software/drivers that come with them are also janky as hell. If you want to remap keys on this board, you have to download software off of google docs and tell windows and your antivirus that it's not a threat (might be a lie). I got one of these (the aluminum case version, $20 more) to test out switches and modding ideas on a platform where I don't care if I break or scratch something, and also to see if I can train myself to use a 60% keeb before splurging on a boutique kit. Worst case scenario, I have an aluminum case to play around with in the future. But yeah, the software is really bad.

[@liamfunk7275]

[@kaicube5967]

I have this same keyboard in the 96% layout, and honestly a new set of keycaps and some dampener O-rings under them went a long way. For a pretty cheap (mine was around $75 iirc) keyboard with two day shipping, it's really not bad. I'm going to try different switches at some point but for now I like it well enough. Also, their software slaps very hard for a cheap keyboard - a hard requirement for me was being able to remap keys easily and this was literally the only keyboard in this price range with this layout that could do it.
