I personally would call this Thacc (and a bit clack) because of it's lighter sound and less deep bottom-out, still a very good keeb and an absolutely desirable keeb for a budget price, I would call thocc a deep tactile sound with a deep bottom out sound, you could get this by tape modding or foam modding(A more rubbery foam is also nice) to get a nice bottom out sound, Really good keeb.
idk why you would go straight for all the keycaps thats just time consuming and inconsistent plus clearance issues could arise just foam modding the different plates this board comes with would make it deeper and less hollow
I think that's because this person is thinking from a custom keyboard perspective, so this price range is been as "budget keyboard" by an enthusiast. For reference, custom keyboards are around at 300 bucks at entry level (cheaper ones will be made out of plastic/acrylic) and can go up to thousands of dollars, hope this helps!
It costs more to build a custom, even if that custom 100 buck keyboard turns out to not be as good as a prebuilt customisable 80-100 buck keyboard, you’re buying all the parts separately, as more stuff is available in the market and it is more established then the prices for custom parts will start dropping more, but saying that I’ve noticed that we are able to build a budget keyboard right now for 50-80 dollars

@@sbean Having no case shouldn't play a big role in it sounding hollow, you need an empty shell to have something hollow. And if there is no case there is nothing to be hollow there
the "budget" is in the sense of custom keyboards mid-range to high-end custom keyboards are 300+, so 120 is relatively budget a lot of people were confused by why I said "budget" at 120, but I hope you understand lol
What hobby do you have that can make you spend less than 122$? Like that's 20 packs of Pokémon cards/ one and a half console game/ a little more than a pair of shoes if you enjoy football.

true, but it is a deep sound signature and i did add two layers of foam in the keyboard. there is literally no case, just a bottom plate, pcb, and a fr4 plate (it's almost impossible to remove the hollowness). also, boba u4ts are thocky tactiles so
@@coolbus_4585 I’ve never seen two people so wrong in an argument. The sound signature is deep. He has high profile keycaps and Bobas to have a rich and deep sound to them.

What’s wrong with 40%? You can use layers and some programmers actually use it since it’s more comfortable for them. If you’re thinking about buying this, it’s a custom keyboard. I would be absolutely damned if a normal prebuilt keyboard sounded like this

I think the keyboard goes with neopronouns, go ask it first
interesting.
What type of tape and foam should I use? Im new to mechanical keyboard and I wanted to mod mine soon
@@yannyyy3554 masking or painter tape is probably the best because of it not leaving adhesive on the PCB
i would try add some foam/silicon into the keycaps it makes the hollowness less aparent
but that dampens the sound. people think they want “thocc” but what they really want is a loud and nice sound. not muted and accented.

You can see electronic components like resistors all the way of the edge and a capacitor on the left edge of the keyboard
