wow man you really did a great job i was thinking of getting the rk61 but i dont know how to mod so maybe when i get it i can watch your video and mod it
@@realharpiefn in theory, optical switch gives faster activation (since it’s light based). In gaming practice, unfortunately it has not made me any better as a gamer lol.
I think it would be combination of the switch (Gateron yellow), the stabs (lubed, modded, etc.), and finally the keycap. Unfortunately, no single formula to get the right sound - it’s annoyingly subjective.
Hi, I remember seeing this on Facebook marketplace. I have bought my own rk61 Redswitch and I’ve now realised it’s not hotswappable.would I be able to send you my keyboard for you to mod.
Damn, i thought you had like 50k subs, great job 👌

You should try soldering hotswap sockets i dont know if it will work
Mailman sockets would fit - yes.
Would the gateron yellow switches be a better choice or the new akko cs rose reds?
Haven’t tried akko switches yet. Will do a comparison in future video.
Hello, where did you get the keycaps from ?
Akko Tokyo R1 keycaps. Not sure if they’re still available on their store. If you dig around on Ali or aftermarket you may find a set.
I was wondering If I can put in gateron optical yellows in this can I
Unfortunately no. Optical only work on optical PCBs.
But it supports 3 and 5 pin switches

Ok thank you I understand
Could you do a rk61 2022 version review? I would really appreciate it. I heard they now sound a lot better stock. Thanks!
Hmmm…just so happens about to do a commission on one. If different enough I’ll post something up.
@@atomechkeebs just do it.
you have a mousepad for keyboard and a desk for mice. Are you a normal person?
Haha; early days - didn’t have proper mouse at yet.
the 2022 version is so much better it's almost as good as your 2021 modded!!
Thanks for letting me know. Was thinking about doing a current version review.
@@atomechkeebs Thanks for replying so fast! My friend has it and its so creamy and thocky in stock form
@@SeiaF16 which switches does your friend have?
@@benjapizarro981 the stock rk red switch :D
Where can you purchase the pe foam
Typically on Amazon or Aliexpress. If you’re lucky, some electronic devices will include it as packaging.
would your keyboard sound better if you applied tape on the Case?
May do. I did this video before I new about tempest mod. Although I rearely do it in general in any case haha.
how did you get your space bar to sound so nice

Are those switches 5 pin?
From memory standard Gat Yellows are 3 pin. Milky yellows and the newer yellow caps are 5 I think.
Wheres the smoothness?
Mainly in the switches
silky shit
