Incredible for a budget board to offer this much quality. 2024 has been quite a year so far, which makes me wonder what the next seven months will bring in the sub $100.00 space. Thank you for another great video, Taza!
Thank you for watching! 🌞 Yeah with this ND75, the Rainy75, and even the Bridge75 - the budget board space is blowing up and getting a lot more competitive.
Just ordered one of this bad boys thanks for actually showing how to screw in the top mount (sure I would of figured its out) but no one had actually shown it. Super excited to pair this with my custom white pc I made a year ago, first board away from major “gaming” razor, Corsair etc. keyboards.
My pleasure! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment 🌞 Sounds like a great upgrade if you're coming from Razer/Corsair. I'm sure you'll enjoy it!!
Thank youuuu 🌞 Honestly, I'm not the most thorough content creator out there. Your THOCCnology latency index is much more analytical than anything I've put out 😌 Thank you for dropping by - I enjoyed your review on the ND75 as well!
@@potatoking414 Hii! ^^ Hm, not an easy question. My Rainy75 has an FR4 plate which might be a nice feature for many. If you prefer the ND75 screen and if you plan to open the keyboard for modding quite often, the ball-catch opening will come in handy! (Also the blue and purple of the ND75 is just mind--blowing
@@Tyler500x I enjoyed the top-mount with foam configuration the most. If this were the 1.6mm PCB though, I think the board would sound great without foam as well. 1.2mm always seems to need some foam to compensate.. Which one sounds best to you??
보이는 재질로는 알루 같은데, 웨이트디자인도 신경을 썼네요... 좋은 사운드는 아니지만, 그래도 여러가지 마운트지원에 스크린까지.. 키캡을 바꾸면 사운드가 더 나아질 것 같은 생각이 들기는 하네요... 100불 정도면 저렴해서 일반 사용자분들께 많이 어필할 것 같네요.. 좋은 리뷰 잘 보았습니다.
I'm loving the video style and editing! Keep it up! I was thinking about getting this board but I'm curious about the latency in it's 2.4ghz wireless mode since it doesn't say anywhere. If you know anything that'd be great
Wow, thank you for the comment! For latency testing, I recommend you check out THOCCnology's video on the ND75 - she's usually super thorough with her latency testing!🌞
@@TAZAKEY Thank you, I got the Rain75 instead of the ND75 because the 2.4 GHz wireless is faster! But I got the Rain75 mainly because of Thoccnology and your review videos on them! Do you have any keycap suggestions that would fit the anodized black? I prefer Monotone (specifically white and black) PBT keycap sets. I was thinking of asking you since you have maybe a few keyboards and experience in building keyboards
@@TsugoMono Rainy75 is an excellent option! I'm sure you'll really enjoy it! I really like PBTfans keycaps for PBT, their keycaps are high quality and they also come in a really nice tray to store the keycaps in. The Resonance R2 set stands out as something that might look nice on black, but they also have their standard WOB or BOW sets that are always classic. Because the Rainy75 comes with keycaps already, you can also use it for a while and see how you like them before buying a set. Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for watching 🌞 I actually downloaded the 1.0.0.0 version of the driver back when I filmed this video, so I would suggest you try that version out if the 1.0.0.2 version is giving you trouble. This should be available on the Chilkey website as well! Hopefully reverting back to the original version helps with the monitor icon not showing up. Let me know how it goes!
It's a preference thing, but put simply: some people enjoy the softer typing feel of flex-cut while others enjoy the sound and rigidness of non flex-cut. I personally enjoy non flex-cut options more because I find flex-cut PCBs often need too much foam to have decent sound. Thanks for dropping by 🌞
I personally recommend this over the Rainy75, because of a few things: 1) It's more customizable - the ball-catch case design makes it easy to open and close and there are a few different mounting options that you can experiment with 2) There's an LCD screen that you can play around with. It's more of a novelty thing, but I always enjoy having the option. 3) Magnetic connectors for the PCB makes it really easy to work with as well As for "thockiness", I believe the ND75 is deeper sounding stock, but this is mainly due to the difference in switch and plate material. Both boards will sound amazing!
I have a question. I wanna give this keyboard as a gift. Does the driver save the settings on board so that when the receiver gets the kb, it can already load up the gif and lighting settings and everything?
Yes, the driver saves the gif and lighting settings to the keyboard! Keep in mind you'll need to unwrap it though (it comes in a plastic wrap). Apologies for the late reply - good luck with the gifting!!! 🌞
that screen seem to be more better than my old abm066 screen I mean only the screen, this board don't have multi layout like my neo70 so i don't like the pcb
The screen is definitely better on this one. I don't mind the lack of layout options given the price, but I would prefer 1.6mm non-flex for sure. I think they will provide that option in the future.
아 전혀 괜찮습니다 ☺️☺️ 혹시 키보드가 충분히 충전이 된 상태일까요? 이미 해보셨을수도 있지만 혹시 케이스 내부에 자석 케이블이 연결이 제대로 되어 있는지 또는 다른 블루투스 모드 연결은 되는지 시도해 보시고 이도저도 안되면 공홈에 연락해 보셔야하지 않을까 싶네요.. 🤔
If you have the option to buy the 1.6mm non-flex PCB, that will be the first thing to secure. Apart from that, top mount with just the case foam would be my choice!
@@TAZAKEY i found that. It was switched to bletooth and didnt worked connected with cable . I switched that really small switch under right switch and it statted working when i additiobaly use fn + smh to switch to 2.4Ghz
The ball-catch case and vertical LCD win me over in favor of the ND75. The Rainy has VIA support though, so that would be a key differentiator if VIA is important to you.
I remember someone mentioning that they were having issues with the 1.0.0.2 version of the software. I still have the original 1.0.0.0 version which works fine for me!
@@TAZAKEY I have them both on my PC at this point so I could try them out and get a better idea (since the description is poorly translated and trash). I've found both work, but I did have issues with the software resetting everything when I disconnected with 1.0.0.2. Thanks for getting back to me! Much appreciated
This is the 1.2 with flex cuts I would have loved getting my hands on the 1.6 option, but it seems that's in the pipeline and not readily available yet
If the tradeoff here is the LCD screen, I actually would choose to sacrifice VIA support (but this is just me). I don't go crazy with remapping keys though, so the novelty of the LCD screen is more of a positive to me. There is Chilkey proprietary software for this, but it's no VIA replacement. Thank you for watching guys! 🌞
@@TAZAKEY Funny thing is they can now support both many manufacturers are doing VIA or their own software. I am buying $50 boards that support it now. Not like its a hard thing for them to do now.
I have 3 boards that have LCD screen and still support VIA. Just use 2 different pieces of software. Cidoo ABM066, Epomaker Shadow-S and Epomaker TH80 Pro v2
