I love how the Tenet is just straight PTSD for most people

Thanks for the review! It's cool to see QK offering top mount on this, I feel like it's a very uncommon mounting style at this price point! I'm not in love with the aesthetics, but it seems like it's catering to the market as it exists currently, and I'm sure they'll sell well at this price point. I'll keep commenting that I'd love to see them do a weighted 60% that offered support for gummy o ring mounting (e.g. a weighted bakeneko 60) until it happens :)

After building the Tenet this looks like a breeze definitely picking one up

@BluBarry1215 7 ай бұрын

Kind of sad that they went for the case design that is difficult to pick up unlike the Neo65 with its shape. I have the Zoom75, it's is risky for me to move around. I had a few times I dropped it on my desk (on my deskmat, so everything's fine) and almost to the floor when I was cleaning and moving things around. I hope it won't happen again with QKv2 if I decide to get it, since it will be less heavier.

does gmk zen pond actually kinda look like solarized dark? or is that just the way it's coming off in the video

@TofuTypes 7 ай бұрын

mmm might just be a bit saturated in my video but it's like a dark navy if I had to describe it

How is the sound profile of this board compares to the jris65 and the cycle7?

@BokehhBob 7 ай бұрын

Not my cup of tea aesthetically but QK has seriously set the bar for all these budget brands and surprisingly they keep raising it.

@TofuTypes 7 ай бұрын

yeah the offset bezel on the right side is a bit eh but other than that it's not bad xD

@TechnicalArtistry 7 ай бұрын

@@TofuTypes I agree - why did they have to make the screen protrude out slightly beyond the case? Ruins the aesthetic. Not only that but the design is also super busy with both an LED on the top left and the display. I would get rid of the screen personally and keep the LED on the top left or just get rid of both the LED and the screen. The QK65 was peak simplistic design IMHO.

I'm not really a fan of the super thin aluminum sides bezels, reminds me of the neo series....The qk65 v1 had good sized bezels

I personally haven't tried the 75 so can't really say :/ but i guess if you really like the form factor of both then maybe xD otherwise i think you'd be happy with the 75

Why would they offer this without a VIA option? Isn't the point to collect boards? They offer VIA on many others but not this one so now we would have to deal with another piece of software? Starts to be a pain the more boards you get like this that have their own proprietary software.
