Thanks to you, I am also obsesed with with Macro Pads! I finally found one that fits my needs as of now and it has helped editing so much! Thank you! 😀
I’m in love with the Moonstone switches. I just put them into my Keychron V3 yesterday, and the sound/feel is just delicious
This whole set up from the keycaps to coiled cables are so clean 😮💨🔥
I bought those moonstone turbos for my new build and I love them 😍 great recommendation Frank!
That macro pad looks sick I love the modular design it’s very unique
I did too, until I saw that it's $180...
Happy New year rob you and yours! Thx for all the vid
Great set and colour theme. Love the Grid 100.
The Grid100 is very neat, I think they should make a 20 key version though, so we could have the encoder for volume and below that a play/pause, stop, forward, back and the same for the joystick, for our regular weapon swap, reload, snipe, jump/crouch, etc... or regular 3D functions. That'd be ultimate! If using those 2 modules, that would mean 12 keys + encoder/joystick, if not, 20 would be more than idea for gaming in most games, so less footprint on the desk while gaming, more space for the mouse... Design wise its a 200/10
it honestly makes me so happy to see this guy still making content i was watching this guys reviews back in like 2017 when he was doing the razer wolverine lol i played a lot of xbox as a kid this guy 100% helped me make good choices on the brands and items in general that i would invest in for my setup im 16 now and i just got my first pc so im sure ill be revisiting a lot of his old vids lol much love randomfrankp keep up the awesome vids
In my personal opinion, he's a scam artist who absolutely CAN NOT be trusted. Top 5 mice of 2023 and not ONE single offering from Lamzu LOL urmmmmmm and he has the Razer Cobra Pro!??? Pulsar X2H, ASUS Harpe Ace? Razer Viper Mini Signature Edition, WHAT? Finalmouse ULX.....??? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA after enjoying his content for quite a few years on and off, that was an INSTANT unsub. Lamzu Thorn at £80, alone, is enough to discredit this man instantaneously for me personally.
I just built the GHS.JEM like 2 days ago. Always nice to see a custom in rotation.
Great video! I am also using a Pulsar x2H, and I agree, it feels way different than the X2.
I really love the look of those keycaps, I swore off buying any more keyboards and keycaps but those might just have to be my final purchase.
Awesome vid as always!
Did you use a different spray for the glossy finish? Or did the paint have its own glossy finish? I really want to get that glossy coat on my mouse. My old MM711 had that awesome grippy gloss and I want it for my current mouse…
the lamzu energon pad is really nice, it's what I've been using and like quite a bit, doesn't come in desk size tho, mostly just the regular square if that matters to you. Definitely recommend checking it out!
Those switches sound great!
I would like more videos on this macropad. Macro pads are the future and more companies need to focus on developing these.
Love the macro pad
AWESOME ! I'll buy X2H Mini.
I love the videos and would be interested in seeing more keyboard content even though it isn't as popular as before. I was also wondering what tools you use for soldering since I am interested in trying to solder a new custom keyboard instead of hot swappable
I got a Pulsar X2A (size 2) mostly because it's comfortable as a lefty but I have to say I'm pretty impressed with the mouse after coming from a much heavier logitech mouse. Really nice KB and setup overall.
honestly perfect timing. I was opening up to search for a good macro pad....
The HD660S2 actually has far better "fun" bass response than the HD58X. I have both and definitely better bass. Now the HD58X is warmer overall, but warm doesn't equate to fun IMO. Warm is just less fatiguing. Most of my headphones are warm. I am not a fan of elevated treble. You also replaced the stock pads with what looks like Brainwavz or Wicked Cushions pads? Try out some ZMF pads if you are going to swap out from stock Sennheiser. Some pads can negatively change the sound of Sennheisers.
Do they need a pre-amp? or can these drive themselves DI to the PC?
6:11 leave it to randomfrankp to take an already crazy cool macro pad and make it even crazier. Love the vids frankp keep it up
Love the color choice. Go Birds. 🦅 🦅 🦅
definitely have to agree with the X2H (the Size 1 is my preference), was very impressed by how much better it feels than the standard X2. it was such a stellar year for mice and the X2H was right up there in my Top 3 with the Viper Mini SE and Vaxee Outset AX.
Thats the same dark green color of that Kurvana Cosmic Glue shmokin that pine haha 🍋🔥🌲🌱
Even your shirt matches the setup color theme 😄
X2h is a great mouse! I need to get some of that paint...
Hey RFP! Happy New Year! Love the content you do! I have a couple of questions!, so I, I am not a super keyboard enthuasist, like I have done simple mods, like stabilizer mod, and lube switches only, meaning I don't own more than 1 keyboard; How does your ice caps x RFP keycaps look with a black keyboard?? Does having different switches, change the way it looks? Like are white/clear switches preferable? Does it matter if they are south or north facing rgb? Extra non-important questions: can you swap out stems, to create your own colorways? Can you swap out the springs to have a preferred spring force? (I am currently using a Corsair K70 PRO Mini Wireless Keyboard; I love it because of wireless connectivity and battery life, and finding out it is hot-swappable)
That keyboard is nice Frank!
Definitely look to get an LGG SATURN PRO. Reckon you'd enjoy that one a fair bit.
Nice to see you going through the keyboard/mouse stuff and your thought process behind why you chose it even if I think the keyboard kit is bad value for money (the hd660s2 is kinda 🙄too) but hey it's your setup, do whatever you want. I just hate it when you just go text to speech for marketing material mode and give bad recommendations to your audience, but this video's a refresher.
Where did you find the replacement pads for your 600s2's at? Also are you useing a dac and amp for them?
love the keyboard
Hey Frank, great vid! any more mouses well suited for palm grip?
That mouse glossy finish really thicc
Can you elaborate on that mouse paint, was it a gloss paint or you sprayed a clear coat on top? I’m assuming you had to disassemble it to paint, not just masked it up?
Where’d u go?
Nice keycaps. I nabbed the red/white alphas with the red accents a while back.
Do you have a mousepad recommendation? Saw a dark waves in another vid but couldn’t find it online. Cheers!
I liked the more gentle intro :D
Haha much love for the shoutout man. If you want me to make one like that for you lmk.
Macropad looks cool, but $170? Got any recommendations for a similar Macropad that doesn't break the bank? It doesn't need to be a super high quality build, just something to add to my setup for extra keys.
That Grid 100 Macropad is cool, but I need Logitech G13 replacement with full motion analog and Hall Effect joystick.
I can't find a price for the Grid stuff. There's no pricing or ordering info on the linked page.
Hey! So I'm wondering if you know what the KINGSTON HyperX Cloud 2s stock audio EQ is set to. My previous cloud 2s broke after 6 years and had to resort to buying the Razer BlackShark v2 Pros after finding out Kingston sold HyperX to HP and messed up my go to headset (thought I bought a defective headset after trying the new ones). I'm trying to replicate how they sound and have gotten really close but would appreciate some more advice :D Edit: Sound Normalization has also helped while trying to achieve the same type of audio
I literally ordered the same board. Still waiting for mine tho. Thought it looked familiar in the thumbnail.
Hey man would you recommend switching a model o2 wireless mouse for a different one?
I have the HD58x and I really dont like the earpads for these. Which ones do you use on your HD660S2?
Amazing Mouse
Nice gear! What Wires are you using on your Headphones?
@Randomfrankp Not sure if it was mentioned but can you link the 3rd party cable you're using with those 660S2's?
Can you use that joystick in a game like Cyberpunk 2077 to have more control of your vehicle and/or walking speed?
- Something else ✨✨✨✨
nice goon setup bro! looking clean for 2024 #GOONERSUNITE
Do you know of any physical macro pad that I can use to individually adjust the volume of different apps that isn't super expensive? I want to adjust my game volume, discord volume and music volume separately without having a wired headset with a chat mixer.
Try the Hayate OTSU. Haven't swapped pads since I tried it. The Wine Red color looks great and dates much better than black over time
Frank knows about the hayate otsu, he literally called it his favorite mousepad a couple years ago.
You should definitely try out a work louder macro pad if you haven’t already.
Love my sennheisers.
How did you make your mouse glossy? I always wanted to do that
artisan pad fs man, soft or xsoft. they just hit different.
I’ve been rocking 6xx’s for a while now. I’ve tried like 4 pairs of iems and I just keep going back to my sennheisers lol
What kind of ear pads ur using brother for the HD660 s2?
Can you post a tutorial on the painting process of the mouse? Really sick!
Yooo! i was scrolling for a comment like this one!! How is it possible that nobody is asking for it?!?!
What ear pads do you use in your headphones?
Where did you get your custom SteelSeries key caps?
that bottom row is a war crime
Blobs? Those look like mountains Frank!
Bro what is that gorgeous watch??
Just dropping by to say hi Frank 👋
You need to try the Endgame MPC Cordura pads.
@randomfrankp what dac/amp are you running with those headphones? 300-ohm needs some power!
Grace Design M9XX
You don't use an audio interface for the headphone?
Could you do a tutorial of how you painted the mouse?
The grid 100 is so awesome but how on earth do you actually buy one website that was not straightforward
Have you tried Focal headphones?
I've got the Logitech Yeti GX microphone, the Logitech G815 keyboard with tactile switches , the Logitech G PRO X Lightspeed 2 headset, the logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 mouse, and last and actually least, the Logitech G840 mousepad. I also use a G502x with my work laptop. One could almost call me a corporate shill.
Personally I think the 6xx is infinitely better than the 660s2, theyre half the price, if you prefer more neutral sound you can eq the treble and bass higher
What pads are those on your HD660S2's? I noticed they are not the stock ones.
They’re cooling gel earpads from Soulwit, they don’t seem to make them anymore. I showed them in an episode of Cool Tech Under $50 over the summer, guess you missed that one
@randomfrankp, are you going to review Glorious Model D 2 PRO ?
Are these hot swappable switches?
What watch are you wearing?
Do you use any amp/dac for the 660s?
What do the amp/dacs do?
Grace Design M9XX, didn’t show it because I’ve used it since 2016 and has probably been in a video a hundred times already lol
Bro cool gear!! But my eyes gravitating to that watch you're wearing, can you specify what brand it is?
Timex Marlin Chronograph 40mm Stainless Steel Case Leather Strap Watch TW2W10100
@@randomfrankp thanks bro!! ❤️
those keycaps are sick, its a shame they dont sell em anymore
Frank, what Timex are you rocking in this video? I GOTTA know.
Timex Marlin Chronograph 40mm Stainless Steel Case Leather Strap Watch TW2W10100
Razor has a new gaming set up. Can you unboxed that and the keyboard switches are all green looks really cool I want to see a video of that.
I can't believe you are not making a video about how to apply the paint on the mouse... I'm desperate right now
god i wish i could get those keycaps for my seafoam bauer lite
u should use less solders and get those cone shaped peaks
cant lie the board sounds crispy
Which one is the best Deepcool PK650D 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply be quiet! System Power 10 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
love the keyboard but the 6.25 bottom row layout but with the WKL blockers is a crime
What mousepad do you use
Can you make a cheaper version of the gmk joystick
Where did Frank go?
so what do you use to power your HD660s2?? You use an amplifier?
Grace Design M9XX, didn’t show it because I’ve used it since 2016 and has probably been in a video a hundred times already lol
@@randomfrankp cool beans!!
I would love more keaboard builds 😁
Yes yes!!
Silly ahh spelling
Me too! Used to not care about custom keyboards back when they were way overpriced but now I can’t get enough
cool
