MCHOSE - Ace 68 Air Hall Effect Magnetic Switch Gaming Keyboard

Mchose Ace68 with TTC Dragon Lord Switched and Scyrox V6 with ATK 99G

I've been using a low-end HE keyboard for a while, replacing my old high-end standard mechanical keyboard. And I have to say, you DO feel a difference once you get used to it. They basically eliminate input delay from your keypresses. Normal keyboards need to hit an actuation point on the way down or up. These keyboards will register and de-register keys in a manner that is practically instantaneous (With rapid trigger of course). This usually manifests as multiple-frames of input latency reduction. Besides, I personally think they feel much better to play on cause it's a more intuitive input even if you don't care about stuff like "key overlap" because the keys just perform their actions much faster when your brain sends out the signal to lift or press your finger. And as a reminder, I'm using a cheap hall-effect keyboard (Mchose ace68, around 70$).

Dude, just use an HE keyboard for 5 minutes. This is not a subjective thing at all. If you think HE keyboards only give you a minimal advantage over normal keyboards, your counter strafing ability is probably atrocious to the point where it doesn’t make a difference for you. The bigger reason why pros haven’t migrated as fast as monitors is because you have to slightly change how you counter strafe on an HE keyboard and that’s an intimidating prospect. However it’s overblown and you’ll feel comfortable after just a few practice sessions.

Zywoo still plays on 240, as opposed to 360 which you seem to know as being a bigger difference compared to HE keyboards even though you've never used an HE keyboard. If you know 360 is better and gives an advantage bigger than HE keyboards (according to you), would YOU say that Zywoo is holding himself back? Surely you see how irrelevant that argument is. HE keyboards don't turn you into a counter-strafing god, they just reduce input latency and produce a more intuitive input (inputs are registered closer to when your brain presses or lifts the finger) I don't even know why I keep coming back to this argument. You literally just need to use an HE keyboard for 5 minutes instead of insisting that they somehow don't matter. Literally everyone who's used HE keyboards will tell you that they are objectively, measurably better and its hard for people to go back once they start using them. I won't be responding further.

Yes. Even a cheap one like the Mchose Ace68 like I have will completely destroy a keyboard with preset actuation points. It's hard to go back once you get used to counter-strafing on an HE keyboard.

Mchose ace 60/68 or jet 75.

Yes, and switches ofc. They both don't have extra latency when multiple keys are pressed at once (most cheap boards have that issue) and both have pretty low latency.

HE keyboards tend to be on the clackier side of the sound spectrum. So far the thockier HE switches seem to be those that come from Gateron. Modded boards that have full metal cases, tons of foam or silicone inside with gasket mounts would definitely always have fuller, deeper sounds. For type feel, here's some prompts to consider: - how does it compare to your previous keyboard? - Do you feel the keys rattling/moving much when you rub against or press them? - Do you find it more easy or tiring when doing prolonged typing/gaming? On a separate note, this is probably one of the best value for money HE keeb buys you can find and I've seen lots of great reviews of Mchose keebs, especially their Ace 60/68. Congrats on the good find and hope it works out great for ya.

MCHOSE ACE 60 and 68 i have seen in tests to have really low latency among the closes to the wooting for a much lower price. These are hall effect keyboards and if you want a 75% keyboard they have one called Jet 75. I ordered a Jet 75 myself last week and am waiting for delivery. With Topographic keycaps and Kailh Magnetic God Switches i got it for about $70 with Swedish taxes included.

Keychron/Lemokey are kinda safe options, but I won't really recommend them since they're using switches with inverted magnet polarity, so you basically don't have any aftermarket options if you don't like stock ones. For \~50$ you should be fine with something like Mchose ACE68/JET75 or Epomaker HE68 Lite (doesn't have web-based software though). There are quite a lot of 60% options with similar specs within this budget. You can even get one with aluminum case for 60-ish like Irok MG68.

Mchose makes good options. the ace60, ace68, and jet75 depending on size you want Monsgeek fun60 ultra TMR is also a good option over the ace60 if you want a 60% keyboard (the lower tier fun60s are pretty much always worse than the ace60 counterpart)

None of them are HE, so they are gaming keyboards in marketing only. And TKL means 80% not 65% so the Logitech options aren't what you want there either. My recommendation for a budget gaming keyboard at that size is the Mchose ace68, though I don't know it's availability where you live.

I can personally vouch for the jet75 he with Kailh god magnetic switches.

Mchose ace 68 is v good and budget friendly

I wanted budget HE keyboards and found the Ace68 and FUN60 to be great budget options if you're interested

Yeah kinda late now I have an MCHOSE ACE68, keychron has good options for me now, before it didn't really. Thanks for the reply tho, dunno what took you here
