- It's time for another keyboard challenge, but this time we can only upgrade our keyboards with our own randomized budget. It's about to get interesting...
Watch me upgrade a keyboard with only $20: • I only had $20 to upgr...
Or this one with only $30: • I ONLY had $30 to upgr...

Watch me upgrade a budget keyboard with only $30: czcams.com/video/BdzjQTKiRHs/video.html
Now upgrade it with $10
No Wonder How Its Made To Be Made.
only 3 responce ?
Switch and click can u make me a keyboard my keyboard is pretty old and rgb lights don't work thst good half of it black czn u make me one for 20$
You win for the spacebar alone.
lol
I think the fact that one of your "mods" being to buy the same keyboard in a different colour was genius
ya
Right
lol nice
That $50 mod that was actually only a $39 mod was insane. It sounded so good. Yours was the 2nd best no lie.
True
@@Bayadinvests no hipyo was the second best.
The $20 is the beet
I mean best
@@Blueysvr you know you can edit comments brother?
I love how chaotic budget modding can get. Putting Elmers glue in keycaps, throwing things in a bag of oil, emptying a vending machine into the base, just taping stabs and praying. It's great
0:27 you see... us boys have alot of lube lying around..
Something I would love to see is a everyone mods the same cheap keyboard with unlimited budget, but you have to use all of the original parts. Modify the plate, the case, keycaps, the switches even(I turned some Outemu blues into very scratchy linears that actuate on bottom-out, but you guys can probably do better).
As someone with a replacement for my Outemu blue keyboard in the mail I have to say you're some kind of mad scientist.
😚😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰
Nice. I am doing something similar to my board right now. I have a keycool kc84 (that I bought in 2018 or something). I am changing the switches to gateron yellow cream pros and modding everything else. Going to put neoprene in the case and probably going to put some electrical tape on the pcb. For some reason I feel like electrical tape would sound better than blue but I am not an expert. I just feel that way for some reason idk. I think I like the look better lol…
Challenge idea: Build a budget split keyboard. I feel like split keyboards would really introduce different layouts and creation factors that would make the video really interesting. Maybe everyone gets a different type of split keyboard to build, or they have to mix and match the left and right sides of different pcb sets.
I'm new to keyboard modding and am doing my obligatory youtube rabbithole binge. This was the most insanely entertaining video of the three million I've watched in the last 4 days. HILARIOUS.
Challenge idea: you each buy one set/copy of the parts you need to mod a keyboard (e.g. switches, caps, lube, tools, tape or some general category for case mods, etc.). They all go into a pool, and you each randomly draw one from each category and have to build with what you draw.
thank you! that sounds cool
@@SwitchandClickOfficial hi
you should collab with Glarses
🤔
leave it to Scott to do a modded mount!! Love that, haha!! The man’s a mad scientist
this 🔼
its not as hard as you would think
@@EggyJ0 aàà
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ no bog
It was a fun collab! Looking forward to the next one!
Key is bored
hi
Fake keyboard
No he legit
@@telee4477 wdym lol
This video got me into custom keyboards, a hobby which I absolutely fell in love with. Before this masterpiece I didn't even know it was possible to build your own keyboard! I can't even remember how many times I watched this. Thanks Betty & other keyboard CZcamsrs! Keep up the good work!
Glad to hear it! :)
@@SwitchandClickOfficial❤️❤️
Used parts only challenge. Could limit bundling and require individual purchases. Shipping would be a pain but I think it would be cool to show what could be done reusing parts of other projects.
Always happy to see these collab-challenges.
Very cool colab/group challenge, well done bringing everyone in. And it just goes to show more money not always wins everything. Also its always great to see different approaches on the same subject. Well done. Would like to see a challenge where there is a common goal like: make most thocky, or most silent, or most clickies, or most bouncy typing, or like keybored to do a plate mount conversion, and as usual modding budget under 80usd
i love that you accidently discovered that electric tape is better for modding while thinking about how to prevent fires
so relaxing to listen/watch.
I'd love some kind of challenge where everyone upgrades a mainstream gaming keyboard (Razer, Corsair, Redragon etc) randomized -and upgrade that's capped on their base price or something lol-
Edit: Replies suggested better limitations!
A limitation of 100$ *including* the keyboard seems better; that way the brand and price of the keyboard one choose will heavily affect the remain of modding cost (i.e. Do you buy a $50 RedDragon and spend $50 upgrading it? Or a $80 Huntsman Mini and spend $20 upgrading it?; as what Aaron Morrow suggested)
Do razer since I have one and I hate it, blackwidow elite/full-size/orange switches
I agree, Red Dragon K552 or K630 would be great to see done. I'd like to see a budget of under $100 for upgrades.
U just have bad luck man🤦🏽♂️
@@Macky4941 k552 is op
It should be everybody with the same budget but the keyboard is part of the budget then.
Finally, I can use this video for my extremely cheap mechanical keyboard
I would love to have a video where the same group of people have to build a full gaming setup (PC, Monitor, Mouse, Headset, Keyboard, and Mousemat) and the price ranges from $400 to $2500. Love the content so thx, this video made my day.
I actually find this video very entertaining thank you for making this.
I think you have the best sounding board to just swap some better keycaps on for sure. Decent caps and that would sound amazing for the price.
I can understand and respect the caution for causing fires with battery keyboards, but foam pressing against Li-Ion batteries doesn't cause them to combust. In fact, many mid-tier keyboards with batteries come with a thin layer of foam in them, laying over the battery.
This would only happen if the battery was built faulty or you somehow puncture the battery.
The lithium reacts with water in the air which causes it to combust.
This is how science wins you the budget keyboard challenge. Hats off to Keybored
I still can't get over the fact that you went from the most energetic person I've seen to the most chill person on earth
if you want to use budget foam and stuff, maybe try using dish sponge?
I used it on my boards and it makes it sound way less hollow.
Either way, amazing video, I think it sounds pretty good for the budget!
Omg. That is freaking genius! I used cotton instead XD because the foam for keyboards aint available in my country
@Hiryu Imajin I wish I had cotton laying around because I used packing peanuts + painters tape for my keyboard.
Everyone's so focused on the sound and look of these keebs, but I've never seen anyone try to make literally "the most productive keyboard" ever. Trying to speed run a bunch of unfamiliar tasks (assuming everyone uses the same software) would be a hilarious and fantastic video!
Hell yeah!!!
:oo we have the same amount of hearts from switch and click:)))))
@@1andonlyfaxz787 :')))))
I just decided to take the plunge this week and have been a bit surprised at how little discussion I've seen on things like what switches work best for which keys and how most everyone I work with who codes for a living all type on cheap oem keyboards.
@@timtuckercom because it changes actually fucking nothing.
Pls more of these challenges!
i don't know why i find it hilarious seeing people react to a spacebar sound like a dubstep fan would to a virtual riot song
Perfect video for someone like me who’s just now getting into keyboards and is budget conscious:) thanks!!
Happy to help!

I would love a keyboard challenge where you would do mods that no one has ever done something new it would be nice to see and thanks you for reading this comment.
That was an awesome transformation with $40!
I have those same keycaps in the Blue/White/Lt. Blue variant. I really like the way the owl and panda w/headphones look when lit.
Tape mod foam for case and lube stabilizers is what I would do :)
no one asked
@@isiaszavalza3691 I asked
Switches too
@@isiaszavalza3691 ur nan asked
@@isiaszavalza3691 i asked
Who knew people would make a hobby out of thier keyboards. Before it was just slim keyboards, then it was the RGBs, now it's the mechanical features.
Thanks for all your effort in your videos you’ve somehow taught me how to build mechanical keyboards thank you Betty ☺️
You are so welcome!
@@SwitchandClickOfficial how are you this underrated you deserve more #GETBETTYTO1MILLION
As a owner of a full on custom keyboard i say the best at low budget builds will be Lewis. I really like his low budget builds but for the higher budget ones you and Hippy are the best at creating a master piece.
Was so sad to see the switch pads go! LOL, they are nice for a budget mod.
Thank you Switch and Click. I really love your videos. I can say that your videos help me to decide which keyboard I would buy. ❤️😍👍
Ayaya
For some reason I just really love the way you talk
Ngl, I'm glad to see Lewis more, I remember when he had 4k and I boosted his discord server
These upgrades are always so fun :)
I think it'd be quite a challenge for y'all if you tried to build a good iso-layout keyboard with norde extension keycaps. Those are so hard to find. I started to get into this world and am not able to find proper pbt keycaps with iso-de or norde.
The one thing I never though I will see is a keyboard CZcamsr being it's own thing
Im new to your channel and I love it! IDK if you have a vid on this but how do you eq your audio? IT SOUNDS SO DANG GOOD IN THIS VIDEO! I see what mic you use but just wondering what other steps you do to make it sound this smooth.
“you don’t just have lube laying around in your closet” well…
me chilling with $39 budget laptop
I love that u put everything in the video and there is no part 2
4 am, the best time to watch this.
that spacebar was ticking really bad on the left side though that was the only thing that bothered about this build, other than that this was a super legit budget build, Betty! Also, if Lewis had just lubed his stabs and switches, I really feel like he would have probably gotten at least second place
I came for the key lube comments.....ugh people😅🤣 Awesome video as I am just becoming a keyboard fanatic!
I kinda “upgraded” a 20 dollar keyboard with 25 dollars. And it turned out pretty good. It sounds ok (it has red switches) and looks amazing
Yes! this is just what I needed; I don't wanna spend a leg for a nice keyboard anymore.
I love that you guys do these videos. Thank you so much!
Glad you like them!
this was very fun to watch! love the content
Thank you!
“Quadruple” is just a funny word to me😂
It may seem weird but her voice is very calm and collected and gives me ASMR tingles
me who thinks 40$ is expensive
Same
Same bro
@@Normalguythatisbored dementia
this video was perfect unintentional asmr lol
I love these kind of videos, keep on doing these great videos.
Thanks, will do!
WHO SED I DONT HAVE LUBE IN MY CLOSET
🤨🤨🤨🤨
🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
I can make some lube
😮
💀
Of course the audio engineer would have the best sounding keeb and he didn't even spend all 50 bucks on the upgrade
ngl that space bar is soo satisfying
11:58 “You gonna scroll by without saying hi to coiny?”
i swear to god this had me dieing laughing when she said we dont have lube in our closet
Her: You don’t just have lube in your closet. Cubers: …
Love this video. Love your style. Got my subs.
Appreciate it!
those keyboard upgrades are more expensive than my keyboard
Love to see a challenge where who can make the best sounding keyboard with just a bottle of silicone rubber. I'd also love to see a challenge on what's the best type of tape to use on a keyboard PCB to get that sweet thock sound. There are heaps of different tapes out there! Anything goes!
I love her creativity she always figures out how to make good keyboards and upgrades on keyboards even with lower amounts of money in these challenges I love these videos in general like wow !! Also imagine she hearts this comment😆
Hearted!
Wow! Thanks switch and click😁
Man i love that sound, how did you do that, seriously
4:33 hipyo laughs in the coroner
"you don't have lube just laying in your closet"
stares at my closet and finds an empty bottle of lube: yeah i agree with your statement
Love your videos! What would you say are the top 3 best budget 75% keyboard?
NT75 super budget friendly version of gmmk pro
It’s funny you guys are all trying to make it sound better and a sharper click but Ive always tried to find the quietest keyboard on the market. I have an issue with the clicking noises lol
the sound testing mad me sub
Interesting challenge and interesting techniques Jolly good show @Switch and Click and the rest of the guys who participated. Also, is it just me or does Betty sound a bit fatigued throughout the video?
Anyhow, great job Betty and the rest of the guys 🙂
It's a great day when she uploads.
The Ludwig mercy is a banger
5:15 "the key that you never use"
Me who uses this key all the time as a programmer:
8th
:0 Oh wow I have never had a like from a famous creator!
@Mr Roomie I know, still counts tho
This Comment Is Pinned
It’s not lol
Uhhh no it’s not
Maan! Your voice is so calming 😫 im crying out of calmness Im having
Save me a seat at the Space Bar.
"we need a legitly cheap $00.50 screwdriver"
like the upgrade
this video was so good and the idea is just fantastic
thank you!
" I hope I haven't started a thing with people gluing their key caps or something"
Me: Filling every void I can with glue.
I did the same, bought a 35 bucks keyboard. Put some foam in it, didnt have lube + lil expensive. Sounds really good :)
my man bought a whole different keyboard
I love the b4, blue switch keyboard
I had no idea I would be so entertained by this.
me chillin with a blue switch keyboard:
I was just letting my youtube play while i'm grinding out the Destiny 2 weekly but this video FOUND ME and stole my attention! Love this. so cool. Totally Subscribing.
Thank you :)
It was a very fun and friendly competition 😆
Hey, I think what you should do for the next few video should be attempting to make the thokiest keyboard and trying to put as much mod into a keyboard as possible 😉
Your voice make me so calm, I subscribed .
Your voice is gloriously calming
the money you used to upgrade the keyboard is more that my actual keyboard :)
Fun fact for you, with tiny flathead screw drivers you can open up switches by sticking up the clips on the side to which i did before owning a switch opener its simple and effective.
