wait shoobs has siblings? i thought he was an orphan who was left at an anime expo at birth
Same ngl
LOL
Shoob fans are the best
Maybe Shoobs and his Siblings happens to be The Legendary Beasts from The Pokemon Series abandoned at Anime Expo. You never know.
I was the 420th like I feel great about it
I think we are at the point where as long as you got SA keycaps, tape mod, and some PE foam or noico, your board will sound at least half decent regardless of the price. Mod the stabs, or even better, upgrade them if possible, and you're set. It's insane how affordable this hobby had become.
bonus points if you upgrade the switches... super bonus if you lube them.
@@Nicole-gt7nv not a stock gmmk pro mate, you can't make that sound good without more modsXDDDD
yessssssss
@@selectiveamnesia1033 tbh I've heard some that arent too bad. But that board isnt meant for people looking for perfect sound signature. I think it's more meant for people just starting who want an easy experience in terms of purchasing everything you need in one spot. That being said, there are some mods that will make it sound much better. unfortunately it seems to nerf the sound of any switch you put into it. Most GMMK pro's sound the same.
Yeah, no problem at all. I can't wait for you to post a link of a SA keycap set with ISO DE layout so I can enjoy it, too ;) But I guess you're right as long as you go with standard ANSI.
Not only does this sound good for the price, it just sounds good, full stop. Great video and great keyboard as always Shoobs!
It does sound good but also kinda cheap
@@SgtSuissie Sounds very hollow
@@Daniel-dj7fh yeah but you could spend like 10 more and get some good foam to dampen that by a lot
@@evade9039 I bet they feel hollow as well, and foam aint fixing that
@@Daniel-dj7fh Yeah but this is very extreme budget if you got a better keycaps set you might be able to fix that.
Good point tho
"dirty rag mod"-Shoobs 2021
This is my keyboard and its honestly not that bad once you mod it
I am so happy there are good affordable options out there. I have the 65% version of this. Modded a bit with foam, lubed switches, stabs and new keycaps that were all on the budget side. Bought it last year and I have no plans to upgrade anytime soon.
I like to imagine that Shoobs actually records all his intros instead of recycling it and just fucks up the spelling and talks over it exactly the same every video.
Sounds suprisingly decent! Great vid as always, Mr. Shoobs!
"pretty decent as always"
Wow, this actually sounds good, nice work dude!
Wow, you made something that has legitimate THOCK! Not just using it ironically - good job
i love these budget keyboard upgrade videos
Another Shoobs masterpiece
Yes shoobs ty sm for uploading
Would love to have heard more of the shift on the sound test, NGL tho, I think you did an exceptional job on this one brother. Maybe just double over the "rag mod" on the space?
dope regardless
actually sounds pretty nice lol. When i see these types of videos i feel so bad for people who spend over a 100 on a razer or a corsair.
The prebuilt name brand boards cost as much as customs at 1/20th of the quality. I can think of no justification for their price.
@@user-kz9rz8ui1c the name razer
Not defending corsair or razer, but y'all damn well know people in this hobby be spending several times more than those buying pre-builts on switches and keycaps alone lol. These custom mechanical entry boards are just gateway drugs to spending WAY more than your avg Razer costumer on keyboards.
@@LeReveurY yee but the gateway boards are miles ahead of anything those prebuilt boards could hope to achieve.
@@LeReveurY still, entry boards are miles ahead, and if you do decide to keep spending more and more on boards, for the most part you at least will be able to notice the money you spent in relation to quality/features
Sheeeeesh another shoobs upload!
I liked how the satisfied shoobs character was expanding while ylu were typing on the (AMAZING) keyboard
'Major... major.. Majority (!!)'
Loving your scuffed videos and sound effects, more smacks please!
great vid bro
Just because you included shinji You just got an subscriber.
Thank you shoobs
Shoobs I need to know what faction you’re in cause these asuka hospital scenes are pain peko
Hello! Thanks for the new video!
Nice vid bro
Mans really did a whip with the tape
Respect
HE'S BACK 😩
AYOOO WHATS GOOD SHOOOOBS! TYPING THIS GATERON CAP BROWN V2 W SOME 58G LONG BOI SPRINGS. DEF GIVE THEM A TRY IF YOU HAVENT YET!
Nice!! I've been thinking of picking these switches up. how does it feel? and the sound? might use these on alu
@@3lea.stratoTbh i'm pretty blown away by these. The gateron cap v1 sounded and felt pretty bad but these are a massive improvement. Using mine STOCK factory lube spring swapped to 58g 2 stage springs from kinetic labs lubed with 105g0 on my PC Maja with FR4 plate and DCS sleeper caps. Pretty deep sound signature and don't feel like I need to lube them. Using the Milky variant.
@@tommytypes1721 this sounds like an amazing combo! are those v2's 5 pin as well? can't wait to give these a try! Interesting take as well on using 2 stage springs!
I got one of these (an RK68 but essentially the same thing) for my first board after a long hiatus from the hobby, and for the price you really just cant beat it if you plan to mod. Nicer switches, keycaps and a bit of work on the case and stabs goes a looooong way with such a basic barebones board
Nice video spoops
3:31 my man whipped so hard my monitor turned off
that intro never gets old.
The skittles bit had me dying haha!
I love u shoobs.
great video hahah I really wanna try the towel mod on my RK84 now
shoobs hands always look like they are sweaty
Just finished evangelion and I finally understand the shinji reference 😐
im still watching it and im not there ✌ ill come back when i get the joke
@@eyy_man1162 you wish you hadn’t
Oh boy, more budget keyboard videos for me! Mayhaps one day I shall own a mechanical keyboard all my own... Really, though, I was looking at a skyloong and I was wondering if it was good or not, and now I know a way to make it better if I decide to go that route.
Perhaps consider a 65% keyboard instead because personally I prefer having the arrow keys
@@flame60 Yeah, I've mostly been thinking 65% - 75% on keyboards. The one at the top of the list right now is a Keychron K6
Ahhh good timing waiting for my gk61 to arrive lol
Hipyo is proud of you
That was scuffed mister shoobs
Dude I just did this dirty rag mod on my Jane....OP SHOOBS
You can add bluetac in the space bar to add a little weight + delete the pinging
Didn't know those gateron hippos, niice sound. Now I want them hehe xD
the stab ticking is masked by the high pitched thock 😂
Ah yes just what I need.
shoobs thocky moment
Loved the major anime reference, goated anime.
That's a great sounding board!
Though.. i wonder what it would sound like with metal plated switches
Just what I need for my own gk61
i subbed for the very cultured shinji joke.
already hAve some keebs but i copped one of these today! got some new stabs and some foam n shiiii for it. wanted a bluetooth travel board and a fun mini project while waiting for GBs :,)
can you pls give an in-depth review of the skittles
Where did you get that taobao keycaps? Pretty good for that price imo
shoobs: belle del- *simping intesifies*
While I don't quite think it's as good, this sounds shockingly similar to my $500 custom I just built.
Thinking about building one as one of my keys broke (sk61 optical sensor). Great vid man
If you get optical be aware that only optical switches will work if you ever wanna replace them
Yo shoobs could you make a board with the Ev-02 switches if you can get your hands on them?
hope you are doing well (great video)!!!!!!
I hope you are doing well as well friend
@@ShoobsTube i'm doing well thanks for asking :)
The Shoobs “Dirty Rag” Mod will be the next buzzword.
Haha bro the emote when ur typing xD
Hippo would be proud
You should have tried the o-ring mod by Keybored!
Boy do it thoccccccccc with that dirty rag mod :^)
this is insane
I should probably get one of these
which tablet cover manufacturer is recommended? or did you diy it yourself? also want one for my CTH-480
NOT THE SHINJI HOSPITAL REFERENCE
if THOCK and CLACK had a baby, that is this keyboard sound.
9:09 my brain just melted down... i need it.. imma make it...
I enjoyed skittles eating asmr
yoooo, that's actually not bad
they seem to have made it a lot better since i bought mine in 2018
love ya shoobs,no homo
Board I got is the tkl version: the gk87
mmmmmmm sounds so good
Hey I love your memes
KURISU BESTT GIRRLLL 😍
I think the word you were looking for was Imbued. Close though 😂
You had me until the chewing ASMR lmao never hit the fast forward so fast before. Everything else was hilarious as normal :P
"Always work with what you got" ;)
Mister @Shoobs... How layers from tape U suggest?
Seems you found a way to make clack louder. Skip the tape next time for deeper sounds
gonna cop those keycaps once i figure out how the hell to pay in yen
bro i cant find those keycaps looked everywhere, can you drop a link bb
thocc city !!
You honorary man of culture! Me likey
what is your thought on ergo clears? Do you think they are better than browns?
budget gang
We all know your body pillows are cut in “specific spots”
Nahhhh Shinji stay away from my keyboards LMAO
before 10k gang
man gonna run the mainstream mods out of the game
a smidge too much "clack" for my taste, but definitely achieved a deep sound underneath said clack. cool!
Shoobs why were those tags by your bed 🤨
did the keycaps come with a 1.75 shift key?
Hey shoobs what is goof!
Damn bro, last time i was this early you could actually get keyboard parts easily. Just kidding, that literally never happens lol
soooo good
hey, what switches did u use to type ur intro?
shoobs, I absolutely will judge your tablet cover. 10/10, as you are correct, Kurisu is best girl.
my favorite is the coom rag mod~
