and most important thing - you can not save your lighting effect to use it wothout software. For example when he edit wave effect it will work only with software in background not in keyboard storage and u can't edit default effects, all edits works with software . I don't know why this guy not told that important thing. my previous gk61 was able to store presets and effects in profiles, but keyboard from GamaKay can't
'm mexican and really bro, so nice your video, really don't speak and write English but wish arrive my Gamakay MK61 and i very nervous hahaha other thing i write this message with more or less learning wait understand
your english is fine I could totally understand it. I'm glad you appreciate my content and knowing that I have some viewers from mexico. Thank you for taking time leaving a message.
hey man is there a way to get the kayboard to save you lighting settings from the software without having the app open/or closed but still running in the background. because when i set some effects under the "lighting effects" section then end the task from task manager so its not opne in the backgroud, the rgbs turn off and the next time i open the software, all my settings are reset. when i try to click the save icon under "keyboard settings" the app just freezes and shows a infinite loading icon. it seems the only way to get it to save your settings is to always have the software running in the background.
Hey how do I save my lighting settings? I have to change them manualy every time I turn on my pc. Also can I save it on the on-board memory so I don't have to keep the software open all the time?
Hi, i want to ask something that i have been thinking about for a few days and i couldn't do it. When I do FN Lock, I can use the arrow keys, but I can't type. I am having problems with some games. What I want to do is, I can use the arrow keys and type. How should i do this?
I'm considering buying this keyboard, is there a way to make the keyboard just one color and also is there a way to make lets say the letter "V" green and then make like "P" yellow or is that not a option in the software?
Hi, thanks! One question. Is it possible to swap Fn with the Menu button. I mean put Fn on the Menu's place? Or make a several Fn buttons, like make Fn instead of Caps Lock?

I have a question about this. On the box it says wired/2.4G Bluetooth. So I checked on google however I cannot find any reviews about this “Bluetooth” functionality or what version it is?
@@ardadeniz3800 yea I finaly got my keyboard last week. and these Yellow switches are wayyy too sensitive lol. resting any finger on any key can accidently trigger it. 👀 But overall it is a great keyboard and way smaller than what I'm used to.

(Using the Xtrfy blue Free Keycap from that mouse) 😎

i ave a problem with m keyboad, i feel a lot f delay bease it is ot in 1000hz, i tried to chane the polling rate but t only chages in the sftware and it does not actually change it in the keyboard. How d i fix tis. it does no even regiser se f the keys sometimes
