Know before you buy
The Hot-swap PCB allows you to change switches without soldering, making it ideal for frequent testing. The Solder PCB supports multiple layouts, offering more flexibility for custom key configurations if you are comfortable using a soldering iron.
Plate materials significantly influence both sound and feel. Stiffer materials like Brass and Aluminum provide a crisp, high-pitched sound and a firm typing feel, while softer materials like POM, Polycarbonate, and FR4 offer a deeper sound profile and more flex.
These components are designed to fine-tune your keyboard's acoustics. The PE sheet is typically used to create a 'poppy' sound signature, while the dampening kit helps reduce unwanted hollow echoes and vibrations within the case.
No, these components are specifically engineered for the Ginkgo65 keyboard. They are not compatible with other boards due to the unique mounting points and internal dimensions of the Ginkgo65 case.
If you prefer a softer, more flexible typing experience, opt for Polycarbonate or POM. These materials provide more 'give' compared to metal plates, which can help reduce finger fatigue during long typing sessions.
