Why does every keyboard review/video have to be replied with “enthusiast” opinion. Shesh, I got a 500$ keyboard coming in last place ain’t no good
I have come to accept that every community has toxic people who shit on others because they believe that their opinions (or purchases) are superior. It boosts their own ego and justifies their own expensive purchases. They are very narrow-minded and do not know how to see things from a different point of view.
Do these people just sit down and type all day?? Gamers use their keyboards for *shock* gaming. I know it's nice to have smooth feeling switches, etc but at the end of the day any decent keyboard will do.
@@Billy_The_Frog right! Like Shesh, if I go buy a new car, I do t want some car guru being like ehhhhh that’s no corvette!
@@garethg8226 lol, I’m trying to game here, not type a dang letter 😂
The elitists feel they need to gatekeep... Honestly, that part of the keeb community is just cringe
Completely agrees with you on the cable issue, it takes away the detachable cable function of the board if a dedicated cable needs to be around the desk in order to use this board. Small gripe but it was definitely an oversight. Thank you for another great video!
That definitely looked like a DRM cable design so that you have to buy their own cables. It makes sense because they heavily advertise their own cables on Amazon for you to buy with it. It's not a coincidence that literally no other type of cable can fit into their keyboard
This grates me so much. The Hyper X Alloy Origins has exactly the same problem. Has "removeable" USB C cable, but no other aftermarket cables fit, but Hyper X also don't sell replacement cables.
Such a silly oversight
It does really confuse me. My Durgod hades has such a specific cable gap, ridiculous.
great video as always! :)
Stfu bots. Imagine using bots for your own video to get likes and comments lmao.
@@rayabanid5418 what?
Thanks man
I have this board. I bought it on a whim to see if CM would succeed in their first foray into the "custom" scene. IMO, they knocked it out of the park. If you want a gaming board and don't feel like putting one together, but still want high quality, this is the one to buy. I have several customs I built myself and to be honest, at 39 years old, I hate the process now. It's annoying af. Good to see big companies doing stuff like this.
110% right here
LOL. I appreciate the honesty and transparency in this video. I'm looking for a compact right now to use for COD. I might give this a chance since I'm likely going to pick up one of CM's new mice.
I have same problem with some keyboards that came with small USB-C port. I bought "Cellularize USB C Extender Adapter (2 Pack)" on Amazon for 8$, it's fixed my problem.
Super cool 🤘🏿
Amazing video! Personally id rather go with something like a gmmk 2 and mod it after. Also, do you think you could do a comparison between the deathstalker and the 2023 apex pro tkl?
I LOVE THE LEDS
I love it. The only thing that annoys me. Is t that right shift it not a 1.75u that comes in all custom keycaps sets. It’s a 1.5u which non have that.
My first ever mechanical keyboard was cooler master. I love the layout of this but I can't stand the 60-65% boards. I love the 75% or tkl. Hopefully they make this one with 75%
Same, tkl all day here
I have an Akko board like that where no other USB cables fit. The opening is too small and it seems like the metal tip of the stock USB cable is just a millimeter or two longer so it reaches further in and connects all the way. Even a few other USB cables small enough to fit the opening in the housing just barely make contact and don't fully click into the USB because they are just barely a little bit shorter. So yeah I don't know why any manufacturers would want to do this when changing cables is part of customizing keyboards or even if the stock cable just breaks or get lost you shouldn't be prevented from finding an easy replacement.
This one also sounded nice except as you said the Spacebar...The best Spacebar out of the box soundwise for me is the Xtrfy K5 Compact.
Have you ever tried Akko prebuilts?
Hey! Have you ever had any problems with it? When i launch pc or wake it up from sleep mode keyboard is connected but its not working no light no typing, i just dont know what to do with it
I've seen a lot of these since the gmmk pro
i need this keyboard, i just bought the hyperx origin 65. this board is wayyyyy better. wish i would hhave known about it, i really miss my gateron white switches, so soft, ugh. i need them back, reds are ok but to heavy for me.
Mechcables can make smaller plugs. My Durgod Hades keyboard has a small recessed port that required a custom usb-c connection.
mechcables works with the durgod? I have that keyboard and my cable just wont 😭😭
@@BennieDuck when I placed my order I specified that it was for the Durgod Hades.
The cable works for my Shurikey keyboard as well, which has a tighter fit also.
@@chad_8313 ah awesome - thank you! Might have to check them out :)
I need a keyboard that is tkl and has a volume knob.
Coiled cables look cool, how are they corny
And them there are Kyechron V series and akko boards...
if they are ever in stock lol
@@Djaym0 that's the first time I heard someone say akko boards are not always in stock...
@@Djaym0 Depends on where you are, US has several vendors that has Keychron V's in Stock
got one for $50, cant complain
How bout the asus azoth
Hey Techne! Unfortunately, a lot of gaming keyboards (Hyper X Alloy origins, Kemove Snowfox, etc.) have very small USB ports. I have custom cables and a lot of them don't fit. Instead of drilling the port, I bought a pack of 2 of "Cellularize USB C Extender Adapter" for around 10 bucks. Its a bit pricey for something so small, but it saved from a lot of troubles. I have a lot of custom keyboards, but as a very busy university student, I really hate the long process of modding them. I watch your videos to find a good stock gaming keyboards and they are really entertaining as-well! Keep up the good work!
they should have put dampener on the ck721 to begin with. The pinging sound is just annoying
LMFAO Why would they do that? so you can only use their own cables? I cannot believe that.
Anyways, review was on point, also the jokes were on point 😂
Awesome content! Keep it up!
That definitely looked like a DRM cable design so that you have to buy their own cables. It makes sense because they heavily advertise their own cables on Amazon for you to buy with it
That does kinda suck. Seems intentional so consumers are forced to used their cables and only buy their cables
Oh common any usb cable can be cut off and fit there.
@@Tripokaridos22 shouldn't have to cut up a cable to get it to fit a keyboard. It's clearly a way of trying to make people buy their cables.
Logitech has been doing this crap to usb port for years
LETS GO!! Turn the lights back on! Another solid keyboard… Well except for yours, now that you ruined the usb c port 😂
😂
I'm so sick of these big ass key caps. Patiently waiting for the Keychron K3 Pro
ck721 already in the market. seem the problem also fixed.
No hotswop
Why arent they making all these keyboards 4k refresh rate? i know its a little difference, but it's there, and for some gamers that is such a good thing to have. I would get this, if it wasn't for that.
thats not even noticeable is it
@@BennieDuck it is! i was playing with a 8ms click response time mouse for about 2 years. changed to one with 2ms and it felt sharper, almost like i didnt "finish pressing the button" and it already shot. it enabled a few very specific types of shots that otherwise would never hit. Soooo...it´s not that i would be able to perceive it visually without that 8 to 2ms contrast, but it makes a difference. and for arena shooters? i want that on my keyboard too, since u strafe aim a lot :P
@@neliiinhu 1000hz is the standard though and thats 1ms
@@BennieDuck Thats wrong. all mice are 1000hz at least too, that doesnt mean they have 1ms click latency.
Cooler Master should bring back the OG CM storm/masterkeys keyboard lineup. All of their recent products have been mediocre so why not go back to your roots?
One of my first good boards was a CM Storm Quickfire.
WAIT!!! ISN'T THAT SPACE PUT BACKWARDS????? 3:48
You obviously haven't watched any of his other keyboard videos.
@@garethg8226 so it's his code then :DDDD
139$
I wish cooler master make some fullsize with hotswap , Since I like there simple design
You have the space bar on upside down. Which may be a good thing, lol. I have had my CoolerMaster Pro RGB L for 5+ years. The space bar drives me nuts as it does'nt work without pounding it half the time. I saw your video and decided to flip it upside down and now it works perfect. WTF. I don't like the feel of it though. It is very odd. But anyway, your space bar is upside down. :P
Exactly the same here - thought it was unintentional after I noticed it in the first Techne vid I watched then after seeing it again several times thought to myself "I'm a don't knock it till you try it kind of guy" and now I'll probably never go back. So much better, even when typing after you get used to the new feel.
try the higround AND 100 Thieves colab 60% Keyboard its way better and only
I Just covered the 65's
keyboard enthusiasts be cringing right now lmao
so true
I was very enthusiastic 😊
@@TheTechne best way to be bro
@@BennieDuck You really a bot or fake account made by the owner of this channel. You even have the same "Why?" comment. Imagine using fake accounts for likes/comment on your channel lmao.
@@rayabanid5418 no brother I'm 100% unique human
6:15 it's a proprietary bs i guess
DO NOT BUY cm keyboards!!!!!!!! I bought 3 and all broke within weeks, keys have delayed registration and bad ghosting problem!! and after exchanging 2 of my keyboards to new one they also got it. Granted i used previous version but still beware!!!!!!!!!!
LoL he Cut the Keyboard and not the Plastic around the Usb C Cable ... I love it i cant stop laughing!
He was trying to make it so other cables could fit in, not one specific cable lol
99% lol. "Scientific". Who so shouty?
this is one ugly chinese fonts lol
No optical switches is a no go, prefer the DK61E over this at half the price and double the performance.
aren't you fun at parties. Cheap Elite people are the worst.
dont see how its double the performance?
@@BennieDuck Only if you play Fortnite and do triple edits consistently will you notice. Its not literal but for a gaming keyboard you wont notice untill you know what to look for. Afthe that you wont want to go back. I do prefer mechs for typing though.
@@Boemtie arent the omnipoints different from optical tho and theyre the fastest?
@@BennieDuck Omnipoints are magnet based they are a bit slower but still fast enought. Optical switches are even faster. Honestly to me they feel the same. Omnipoints can get faster because they can go lower in actuation but that just doesnt feel good to me. i like normal actuation because i make less errors that way. I do have the apex pro and i do like it but only after a bit of work modding it. The techne has a great video about this.
🤮 every bullshit "gaming" stuff on your chenal is fenomenal
this type of review is cringey
Why?
Why?
So you just don't like reviews? It's similar to most big reviewers. I don't always agree with Techne and I land somewhere between nut job enthusiast and casual but I respect his production and passion. Pretty cringe comment, ngl
This comment is cringe.
