Mammoth75: Difficult Journey, Amazing Destination
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 дек 2024
- Checking out the impressive Mammoth75. This is an early model and subject to some frustration during the build process, but the end result is a gorgeous, flexy, beast of a custom 75% worthy of the name MAMMOTH. Sound tests for both configurations and with/without the PE Sheet are included.

Can we show my man Brian some appreciation for all the hard work? Building, testing, scripting, shooting, and editing these reviews can take a lot out of creators. It's highly appreciated bro!
Thanks Jefe, always appreciate your support my man
@@badseedtech bRoll goated as always
Absolutely. I remember when this channel had 3000 subs. Hard work pays off man! Stays blessed!!
!
He’s been absolutely killing it lately
Really like the sound of this board. And REALLY appreciate how many different configurations you include sound tests for. Nice work, as always. Hope the move is going well.
Youve been really killing it with all the high end custom board reviews. I think your doing a great job pushing the custom scene into the main stream. Keep it up man.
Thanks a million. Really appreciate it
This is one of my favourite layouts out right now. I love a knob that makes me insecure.
Nice and honest review. I'd insist though that most of those annoying points have been corrected for the GB:
- Screw underneath space bar will be moved
-
No hot glue on DB's JST cable to the daughter board
- Daughter board will be packaged in separate bag
- Plastic standoff screws will be changed to metal screws
- PCB and plate foams won't be pre-installed
- There will be 2 Pieces of case gaskets
Just the PCB vertical placement adjustment and paying attention while screwing will stay ;)
But QMK/VIA, multiple configurations possible and sick look will still make me consider it (plus this souuund ^^)
I put in my pre order and I literally am flipping out already trying to wait for this board, as this will my first "higher end" board.
@@niko1even Same here. I bought it because of the fact that it has a split spacebar and wireless option. This board is loaded with so many features. I just hope I don't scratch the case.
@@TheInstaShark i opted out for the mirror polish finish and got the sandblasted, can’t trust myself with that 😂
This channel is . It’s the only channel I WANT to get notifications on. Love what you’re doing and please keep up the great work!
Coming from brass plates as my first board, I really appreciate the existence of bouncy boards for a new experience.
This review really hit me where it hurts; Brian my dude I hadnt seen anyone use the GMK Mecha-01 keycaps in a keyboard review yet as I missed out on the GB BUTT ended up snagging the deskpad as a consolation prize.
As someone who is very into custom keyboards, I am liking the keyboard oriented uploads a lot! Looking forward to more high quality videos!
As someone who missed out on the in-stock but did join the GB, I'm glad I caught this video. If I hadn't gone into the build knowing about the potentially frustrating nature of the board, I probably would have been pissed, but it was manageable since I was expecting it. Running it right now with the full gasket mount, no case foam, POM plate and absolutely loving it. Pairs well with the BadSeed Tactiles too.
Just the best videoquality as expected. Every video pure facts and the b-rolls, NUT!
Ty ty
Awesome review Brian! As usual, you killed it.
Thank you sir! I can finally go watch your videos now lol
I have been really appreciating all the keyboard content lately. In fact its what got me to sub to the channel. Keep up the awesome work.
love your videos. i don't plan on buying 99% of these keyboards(mostly because of where i live) but i always appreciate listening to your opinion. very thorough.
Thanks so much!
Great work as always! Thanks for doing a sound test with the gasket mount config including the PE Foam and without!
Their switch puller you told me about a few videos has been great too!
Thanks for watching and glad that puller is working out for you!
The honest no BS reviews, excellent b roll shots, top notch information about the products and i can't forget the glorious beard make you my go to tech reviewer on RUclips. Well done man
Ty! 🙏🏼
I was back and forth on this board, I’m glad I held off. Great video as always sir!
Great review! A friend wanting to get into the hobby bought the group buy, but I'll be making it. Hopefully the hiccups will be polished at GB delivery, glad I'm building it and not them!
The amount of time you must put into getting tests for all the dif configs is astounding. Great vid man. Thanks 🙏
the intro got me hooked no cap
Thanks for getting me hooked in the custom keyboard space -_-. Got me hooked about a month ago. Ordered drop ctrl TKL couple weeks ago and have been going nuts customizing it out.
Thanks for not letting me regret getting the purple lol. Looks super clean!
Wow that No PE foam setup is Definetly how I’m gonna build mine. I got the mammoth20 in stock buy and it was such a frustrating time lining up that sheet. It sounds fantastic though. Can’t wait for this build!
This and the 7v are the cleanest 75% boards I've seen yet, Imo. I don't like the knobs on most 75's but this one is noice. You da' man B!
first build you had that i like ngl and love the purple looks amazing
Great video. Really clear on the best configuration
I love these keyboard videos.
I'm looking to upgrade from my gk68xs to something with a 75% or TKL layout, and you give so many little bits of honest experience about the build process that I just don't really get anywhere else.
It's the stuff I'm looking for so that I don't buy a board and experience the disappointment of spending so much on such a fiddly and unnecessarily compromised product.
Appreciate the effort that goes in to these videos, and that you differentiate your content not just by quality of the video but by giving practical and in depth analysis of the keyboards, instead of the stock standard "yo hey i built the mammoth its in GB go get it".
Just when I think I've kicked my keyboard addiction you go and drop yet another keyboard video.
BUILD GUIDE STRIKES BACK
Thanks. Definitely don't want to deal with this kind of hassle. Going to wait for the LW-75 from Laneware instead of jumping on the Mammoth like planned.
Already ordered my mammoth75 and FBTKL and NK87, lfg!
That board is pretty damn sweet looking. Might have to buy one.
Evangalion theme builds will love this.
75% is my favorite layout. To me, the biggest selling point is the mammoth logo and the bluetooth -- but one of the things i hate similar to the original ikki that I got in on is that I had no choice but to buy the bluetooth pcb as an extra. At least that was the case with the brass bottom mammoth...
Man I wanted this one couldn't afford it atm. I got rid of my Q1 cause I just wasn't feeling it. Now I need a board just like this one but without the hurdles. I have too many entry lvl boards and their shortcomings are becoming more evident now. Thanks for the awesome review!.
There’s a lot on the 2nd hand market. The fact the groupbuy took forever to sell off the brass bottom and alu pvd groupbuy still up is telling sign. Try picking up one of the boards that get unloaded (esp the instock versions) then
I mean damn if it wasn't for the quality issues this board would be legit AF!!! That joker colorway is sick!!! I personally love the muted sound!
Super high quality vid as always!
You always say: "Are you ready? LET'S GO!" Well, I wasn't ready for this one. I lost it too fast
Glad I watched this video. I think I'll wait for round 2 of this so they can fix all these issue. The board looks and sounds good, even more so when you remove the foam.
All these issues are address for the current Groupbuy and it has been extended to feb 8th
I love the skeletor purple colourway
Wow, thanks for doing a sound test without the PE foam. Really sounds a lot better in my opinion.
The sound of this board really paid off overall, but i can definitely see how it can be frustrating to get there. Super good deep dive, exactly what we all expect from your content. Great work!
Discord and notification gang pull up 🤘🏽
Waiting on mine for the group buy 😁
Refreshingly honest review. Subbed.
Thanks so much
I picked this up as my second board, by the sounds of the GB updates from wuquem it looks like they have address some of the issues you mentioned about the PCB board attached and the plastic standoffs. Really nice review anyway and good coverage on the purple cw.
The knob jokes, I keep coming back for the puns!
I was on the fence about this one. Your video has confirmed for me that I should wait for Mode's new 75% board.
That’s gonna be an exciting release for sure. I think I have an early one coming out for review
I've got the Navy one ordered, but this is making me rethink that I might like a purple one more. Really nice video!
I’m so so tempted by this board
Replied to my self bc I'm cringe... I bought the white wireless variant... it is a piece of art.
How does it sounds less hollow with the PE removed??? 🧐
4 seconds into the video and I'm already sage nodding so hard my neck hurts 🤣
Going in twice on the nob size haha amazing video yet again
I've been waiting for all the reviews. I snagged an in stock M20 to hold me over until my gb board shows up. I'm pumped to build the 75 after Alexotos and Taeha did theirs on steam.
Great vid. I'm new to the keyboard game and I was actually looking at this as my first big purchase. I think I may still go for it, hopefully it's all fixed in the end
Man I really wish I could of gotten this board. As always your vids are great and straight to the point and ill keep on watching for as long as im in this hobby
Its still in GB for one more day lol
Its still on preorder
@@twitchmania7614 the group buy got extended to Feb 7th. They just announced it in the wuque discord server.
Nice one!
To those saying group buy was extended. I still cant get it rn lol. Guess ill just wait till a new board drops
Really appreciate this review Brian! I'm just starting to get into this hobby, and this was going to be something I looked at, but being new to this hobby, the price for admission for this board was off-putting. Always appreciate your reviews.
This hobby can be very expensive. Some people get addicted, or you can play it smart and just buy one really nice board, and be set for years and years to come
@@twitchmania7614 Yep, I’ve fallen down a few hobby rabbit holes and for keyboards, trying to find the right fit for me.
moar keyboards!!!! really love your perspective
Nice Vid. Good work B. Keep it up!
Those goth cap artisans tho 😻
This board had me at “split spacebar on a 75%”, which is exceedingly rare, but also the synthesis of two of my favorite things. If you wanted a 75% with split spacebar support and a knob, this is the only one.
Did they fix the wobble on the stepped caps on the hot swap? It wobbles a lot on the Ikki, hoping they fixed it with all the newer stuff.
i'm just here because of the Unit 01 theme. but maaan that sound!
I want to buy that from you so bad it looks amazing!
Love your videos bro lol. Funny, pro af, and with good info. Fuckin right, Stay up!
Thanks bro, appreciate you!
@@badseedtech you didn't have to hit us with the Pete Davidson tho🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice video dude, keep it up! The red text around 7:14 is difficult to read at 720p, thought you might like to know :)
That is a beautiful beard, thick like a Balkan Forest. 👍
Man, this was an excellent video. Your thoughts on the build process line up with my expectations of this board. I shared the same frustrations with my ikki68, but there's no denying how GOOD the board sounds. If Wuque addresses these habits in their next board, they're gonna be a powerhouse in the community.
I think the reason why your spacebar sounds so bad is because the switch is northfacing, actually.
I had the exact same issue with the multilayout PCB on the Ikki68 and Gat Ink Blacks that for some reason still interfere with GMK spacebars.
The solution for me was just to use a long(er) pole switch on the spacebar, you might have the same finding, though i do still think that the top housing of the switch makes a difference so it might not be a problem on all short-pole switches.
Honestly, it feels like a very very big compromise just to allow for a split spacebar config that barely anyone will use, but oh well.
would love to see a review of the Mammoth 20 numpad as well
love you made my day
So you’re saying this shouldn’t have been my first big build, challenge accepted
1:32 is that a scratch on the bottom piece?
Man, I just had to go back and look at the actual board. It *is* a scratch on the top edge of the lower. I can almost 100% guarantee that I did this in the numerous times I rebuilt this. I went over it HARD when it arrived and that wasn’t there.
@@badseedtech Thanks for the honest review as always. I can tell how frustrating the build was for you lol. I do really hope that they fixed those issues in GB. I.e. the top case screw positions, yikes.
@BadSeed Tech Once again Peeps the man is looking out for us and our money just as if he were thinking of spending his own cash
Straight up the most direct and Honest reviewer of any type on RUclips
I really wanted to jump on this one but I couldn’t afford it. However, this is probably one of my favorite layouts aside from my Dio v2r2. Thanks for the great review!
is there any other good keyboard that has the knob like that? I like that knob...
I’m not disliking this concentrated keyboard content.
This keyboard is about to start the 3rd impact
Any other gmk sets that would fit that the mammoth 75 purple color? Ordered this variant right now.
Bangger review as always, I actually hold back my purchase on this board and hoping a rev 2 in the future. Aesthetic is so good but the build process not for everyone.
still waiting on that BadSeed Tech keycap, great vid as always
Any idea where i can find a good PBT white on black keycap set? If it shipped to europe it would be perfect!
The best feature of this board is the amount of knob jokes you are now entitled to 😂
love your videos! what are the best fully assembled mechanical keyboards that you can recommend for beginners?
depends on your price range look at red dragon kinetic labs and kbd fans
are you going to review the Kiko Lab's Ellora65?
Any news on those badseed tactics?
Not sure if it was said already but the custom caps are Goth CAPS not goth keys lol just so people know what to look for if they want. Their discord is the best place to know when he will be selling
Definitely case where groupbuy one is better than instock. I joined the groupbuy for brass pvd one to get the correction. However i am liking the instock one (followed the guide).
The install process wasn’t as smooth as my Mr.Suit. I ended up using the enclosed tools versus an electric screwdriver for the suit. I think the Mr.Suit is better board overall. Now just waiting for Owlabs Spring International Sale to come.
Hey man I'm wondering if u could review akko jelly blacks soon cause I'm thinking about getting them and my sound preference is clacky and creamy
I love my Ikki68, so I wanted to try out the new Wuque board but I just can't get with the design. The knob and 4 key cluster is really ugly to me.
honestly im hoping for some group buys coming up that include no foam at all. this muted sound trend is nice and all, but theres a decent part of the community that want roomy, resonant cases to get a nice full sound, and honestly every board in this budget from the last year has sounded identical. was really looking forward to the Modern F gb because of this but they seem to have ceased useful updates recently
WHAT ARE THOSE KEYCAPS ??!! PLS TELL
I gotta say I love and hate this board at the same time. The one I got has a huge factory scratch on the back along with every single problem that Brian mentioned in the video. But it sounds and feels so good. I have mixed feelings about it.
As a ikki68 aurora user, Im surprised to see they still have the same problems with a board thats more than double the price. Aurora had some very weird problems on assembly aswell, from plates to sockets, and my right shift still sits crooked because of the multilayouts sockets underneath, with their answer being "cut the washer until it fits ". Still would recommend it as a mid tier board (~$330 assembled), as for the mammoth not sure 😬😬
Did you or anyone else happen to also order the "Tromso" bluetooth PCB for the ikki68 aurora?
I just got my Tromso PCB a few weeks ago since I forgot to get it on R1 extras when I placed my original order for the charcoal/mint green group buy , and ordered it during the Peaches N Cream group buy. anyways long story short I just now looked at the PCB to try out this Bluetooth PCB...I'm still trying to figure out if this toggle switch located on the top side of the Ikki68 aurora Tromso Bluetooth PCB (located to the left of your spacebar switch) ...but the strange thing is its on the top side of the PCB, plus its angled at a 45° angle instead of flush with the top of the PCB. Honestly have no clue if it's the on/off switch to turn power off to the connected battery you connect on the underside of the PCB for bluetooth mode or what haha. It just looks so out of place since its the only thing sticking out/up from the top, but it would make sense if it is supposed to be there as it would be annoying to have to take apart the ikki68 to get to the underside of the PCB if this switch was instead located next to the hotswap sockets.
If anyone wants to shed some light on this for me that either owns a Tromso PCB or ordered the wireless version of the ikki68 aurora that knows what this little thing is, would be greatly appreciated 👍
Also thank you for yet another solid video of one of the several boards I've been curious about 👊
Which one supports you more, watching your videos on RUclips or Nebula?
Hey great vid i wanna give some recommendations on some things ive been wondering on and is mostly audio related. The first one is the Harmonicdyne Zeus on linsoul, then also iems is also a thing u haven't really covered yet the most talked about is moondrop but there are better ones in the imaging aspect , then some hifiman headphones is the Hifiman Edition XS, the ananda, and arya.
Thanks, I’ve got a few of those in cue for after we get set up.
What would you say is a clacky switch?
You just got an ACG shout-out
"This is not a beginner board" challenge accepted.
Wait, how do you know what Pete Davidson’s knob size is? I’ve never been more confused.
