    Good stuff, I’ve been eyeing yellow switches for a while so I appreciate the sound test. Thanks!

    I just finished a GMK67 build around the time you uploaded this video. My first ever custom build. KFA N2O Laughing Gas switches, NovelKeys spellbook keycaps. I did the tape mod, added some extra PE layers behind the pcb, and an additional layer of switch pads. I also replaced the stabs. I'm blown away with how amazing it feels and sounds compared to my old pos ducky mini.

    Good vid and amazing build! Recently lubed around 80 switches for my first "custom" keeb and it was very specific experience, i really hope, that prelubed switches one day will become good enough, so you don't have to lube them at all.. In your build it is really easy to hear the difference between prelubed and manually lubed switches, really important thing even with prelubed ones

    • @7xip
      @7xip  Před rokem +2

      thanks a bunch! I think these switches are pretty good stock but I wish I had recorded my groan when I heard the difference after I lubed my first one knowing I’d have to lube them all!!

      Recently bought Nuphy air 75, stock switches is okey, and after my previous keyboards switches they are very very amazing, but after i lubed several.. It is just i dont know, when you feel and hear good lubed switches for the first time, it is true pleasure

      Gateron factory lubing is way better than Akko in my opinion. As Gateron had more experienced and budget/tech than Akko.

    would adding a thin layer of dense foam be that same as a tape mod? painters tape seems real improper even though it's popular.

    Unfortunately ako v3 cream yellows nowadays are almost always out of stock and apparently someone said they're discontinued. I really wanted them, but because of that I am now chilling with KTT Kang Whites (which are also amazing don't get me wrong, but I like cream yellows better).

    is it safe to tape mod the gmk67? because it has a battery and i think it may cause fire

    • @jjglaser

      yeah it's got to be bad for letting it overheat? and then the tape glue would get really gooey.

    • @7xip

      These ended up turning out really well but the extra step would definitely to get some better stabs. Durock would work but you have to get plate mount!

    Would adding pe foam in this make it more poppier?

    • @7xip
      @7xip  Před rokem

      Yes I think it would, I just prefer not to use PE foam because it makes the board sound like all other boards with PE foam and reduces some of the board, plate, and switch characteristics. If you like the sound of PE foam though I think it’s the best mod for it!
