I got pre lubed glorious pandas and I'm happy to say they sound amazing with no spring sound. So if your lazy like me definitely worth getting prelubed

@platinumtechgaming5683 3 года назад

That’s awesome, they didn’t have the prelubed option when I purchased mine, but I’m sure it’s a real time saver!

@uzzy1364 3 года назад

@@platinumtechgaming5683 I thought it would be trash but it turned out really good. Mabye I just got lucky though who knows. Can't complain. I'm getting durock stabs next and krytox and mabye better sound dampener and then I'm pretty much done for mods. 1 thing I did want is a aluminium case but that's not going to happen.

@platinumtechgaming5683 3 года назад

Those sound like some great mods, the durock stabs are some of the best. Good luck with your next round of mods!

Love the video. I have this keyboard - I like it overall but I don’t recommend it. For $100, it’s okay in my opinion. You might as well go a little further in budget and build something that is way more worth the $100+ you’re going to end up spending. The biggest issue I have with the board is that it looks like a really nice keyboard more than it feels like a really nice keyboard (EVEN AFTER MODDING) Overall I’d throw it a 7/10 as a rating.

@platinumtechgaming5683 2 года назад

I can get behind your opinion; not the best but not the worst. I have other keyboards I want to post soon if I can find the time. Thanks for your kind words and for watching!

@und3adxl3g3nd3 3 года назад

the lube you saw that came on them factory could be some kind of grease from a machine they use to produce these

@platinumtechgaming5683 3 года назад

You may be right about that, thanks for an answer to the mystery!

@Haru_no_ki 2 года назад

Thanks. I ordered a second hand board and it will be my first custom keyboard. I got the one in the video but in black for 75€(new ones are ~150€ in my country because import taxes:( ) and I want to throw in the mix some switches, but cant decide what to get. Also an keycap set would be nice and a coiled cable

@platinumtechgaming5683 2 года назад

Switches are such a preference thing, it’s hard to recommend one definitive one. You should decide if you like linear, tactile or clicky switches. For linears, lubed gateron inky blacks are a good value. Good luck with your build!

@DannyKerbel 2 года назад

So the lube got rid of the ping noise? I just got the GMMK with gateron browns and even with extra foam the pinging is way too much.

@platinumtechgaming5683 2 года назад

From what I remember, lubing the browns did help with the pings, but not sure if it got rid of it all together. I’m sure the extra foam you put will help, but maybe you can film the switches too.

@DannyKerbel 2 года назад

@@platinumtechgaming5683 Thanks for the response! I ended lubing the switches, adding switch landing pads, and extra neoprene foam. Completely transformed the feel and sound. The lubing probably had the biggest effect so definitely recommend. Don't hear a ping anymore.

@platinumtechgaming5683 2 года назад

Thanks for the update! I’m glad it turned out well. I definitely agree that lubing the browns is they way to go.

@adicted 3 года назад

hey, I was thinking of getting the gmmk. anything I should look out for? also my budget is around 130 USD, should I get pbt keycaps along with the gmmk or should I get different switches instead? Have you experienced any issues with it? nice vid btw. Much better than mine anyway lel

@platinumtechgaming5683 3 года назад

If you want to stretch your budget a bit, I’d wait until Black Friday. Most things would be on sale then including switches and key caps. I’d say if you had to choose, switches over key caps as it would make more of a difference when you type. Try the stock switches out first and if you really like them, then no need to change (though I do recommend lubing the switches). I haven’t ran into any issues yet, but it isn’t my main driver so I don’t use it much.

@blabliblubb89 Год назад

Hi, do you have any rgb Errors when set rgb setting to custom? When i set it to custom, some Led's are dead and the lighting isnt correct.

@platinumtechgaming5683 Год назад

Hi, thanks for your comment. I have not encountered the errors you are asking about, but I’ve never set it to custom. If the leds are indeed dead, you should have Glorious replace it.

hi I’m building using this but I’m not sure whether to use plate mount stabs? Are they plate mounted because I’m buying durock and there r either plate mounted or something else which are rhese?

@platinumtechgaming5683 2 года назад

These are plate mounted stabs. Screw ins would usually require screwing into the pcb.

what do u think of the quality of this keyboard. do u recommend ?

@platinumtechgaming5683 3 года назад

It’s a decent keyboard that is actually in stock. I would say to fully get the most out of it, you would have to get some better switches and lube them. Also, Black Friday would have the best deal if you can wait (last year they had deals on most things in their store).

@sapienthought1103 3 года назад

it doesnt seem bad on its own right ?

@platinumtechgaming5683 3 года назад

While not terrible, lubing the stock gateron browns should make the typing experience much better.

Hey, mb anyone can suggest "best" sounding THOCK switches compatible with gmmk keyboard? I think i would even cut 5 pin switches to 3 pin just to make them work with gmmk if they provides thockines :-)

@platinumtechgaming5683 2 года назад

Hey Nerijus, thocckiness is a really subjective thing in my opinion and are not based on switches alone, but some universal go to switches: Tactile: boba u4t, glorious pandas, topres Linear: black inks, creams, alpacas There are of course many more and hopefully some others can comment their favorites here. Good luck with your build!

the sounds before and after are so different...how can you not able to identify? There is so much scratch noise before and the stabs rattle a lot, listen again carefully
