Depends on my board. My home board with SA keycaps and Zealios I beat the piss out of. I am not sure why but it feels like I press very hard and loud. Maybe intentional since I enjoy the sound.

At work I use Alps Damped Creams and I don't feel like I press hard on them, very quiet.

Tried some OC, +60mhz on gpu. That's pretty gud'.


For a gaming laptop, this is a pretty interesting mod. The benefit speaks for itself,  but definitely wait for the coolers to come down to $50 ish.  Or DIY like Tp4.

The IETS version has a little filter paper in its intake, it's something to think about since increasing airflow means increased dust ingress.  The filter media size is extremely tiny though, and full of holes around itself, not sure how good that seal is.

DIY using air purifier guarantees good seal and absolutely pristine air. Large impeller means lower rpm, higher air pressure, and almost no noise.

The desktop chillers are noisy beasts.

mad cow disease is scary af, having your mind deteriorate quickly with no way to stop it, is an insanely scary thought.

Probably one of the first things that me question the non pork meat consumption that I was eating, especially knowing the conditions of a lot of these factory farms that these cows are in.

Prion diseases have been on the rise, especially mid-west America. Deer wasting disease. They can leave the disease and it can stay in the soil, and picked up by other deer. These disease can easily spread to other livestock/ mutate in.

'Murica is a major meat exporter.  Bon-appetite.

I can touch type without bottoming out, and usually do, but I always use clicky keyboards or at least tactile ones.

Linear switches seem creepy to me, although I do appreciate their silence.

That said, my mood is a big determinate of how hard I type, and a significant part of the time I am pounding the keys. And I feel certain that earlier in the day when I am rested I type better and gentler, and by the end of the day I am being more sloppy and striking harder.

That is probably why I like ancient IBM iron so much - it makes little difference when you double (or triple) the force that you are using.

I can only shake my head whenever I see/hear "This board/switch/keycaps will behave so and so IF you bottom out".

IF?! It is beyond my reality how a human being can type without bottoming out?! I type all the way trough he board. I have big hands, am a big dude with some muscles on me. I am literally afraid of using FR4 or Carbon fiber plates because I think I will break them or at least bend them beyond repair.

I would have never tought, this topic would evolve to such a lively debate. But I like that.

For me the hobby means "discovering something new with every new board".
That means new switches, new stabs, new plate, new mounting system (ok last 2 are rather limited, but you get the point) etc.
I'm at something like 20 boards and still feel I haven't even scratched the surface.

Someone here mentioned "I know what I like and so every new board will hat that very same switches and stabs". Of course you could to that, there is nothing wrong with that! It's just now my way to go and ultimatly this is what keeps me captive in this hobby. It's so hard to quit when there comes something new and interesting on the market literally on a daily basis.
