Today, I'm doing a video on the Royal Kludge RK68 Unboxing & Review. In this RK68 review, I go over build quality, do an RK68 red switch sound test, compare it to the RK61, go over the RK68 lighting effects, and more. If you guys are looking for a mechanical keyboard for modding, I would highly recommend the RK68 hot-swappable keyboard. If you guys enjoyed this video, Royal Kludge RK68 Unboxing & Review, drop a like below. AND if you have any questions about the Royal Kludge RK68 Unboxing & Review, leave them in the comment section. This was Consumer Tech Review, and I'll see you guys later!

    I have no idea what this guy is talking about. RK makes great keyboards and you definitely don't need to change anything to have a good keyboard. For 50$ you get a solid piece of tech that just works. If you don't need any knick knack or are looking for anything extra like the volume knob, I can most certainly recommend you get the RK. It's the same as the 65% one, but you get the F keys, which are very important in my opinion. Even if you don't need them, the size difference is negligible, because all that changes is the keyboard g height which does not matter when you're gaming. I've had it for months, almost a year now and it's been great.

    Another great video! Been watching your channel for a lot of tech stuff I'm curious about. I do want to ask a question though: would you prefer this or the RK68 Plus (basically the LTC Nimbleback)? I decided on trying a 65% for my first mechanical keyboard, and both layouts seem good to me. What would be some of their pros/cons? Thank you! I do plan on modding the board someday (when I save enough money for each part LOL), so I'd also like to know if one is harder to work on than the other.

    I'd prefer the RK G68 it's the same but with the option for bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and type C, removable frame, and 2 USB pass-through, it also uses Kailh hotswap 5-pin PCB which makes switch selection more universal compared to Outemu.

    More likely than not, Royal Kludge's RK branded switches are made by Huano. They're most likely the OEM for Ajazz and Keychron branded switches too. In my experience they tend to be very inconsistent in terms of scratchiness and tolerances.

    Just put tape that is not super sticky (because other wise it'll be permanent ) underneath the PCB. It's not that hard and will definitely change your keyboard's sound profile. If you want videos about it, there are many out there and nearLucid's was great.
