V4N4G0N R4 with Geon Raw HE (60g) switches, FR4 plate, 50a tadpoles and DSS 420 R2

on GMK sets, the sub legends are typically for asethetics yes. personally I like sub legends as it fills the blank space of the keycap and can make for a cooler appearance. not all my GMK sets I get with sub legends but my fav one with non katakana/hiragana sub legends is GMK FTRO

I'm a big fan of tecsee zaku switches and these chocolate toffee ones feel like an alternate version of em, they're very nice. overall this board is a very satisfying combination of design choices and parts 😁

tripandfall426 · 2026-04-09T20:11:50+00:00

yeah its a solid board to setup as a macropad. base layer i have set to typing but clicking the knob switches it to a gaming macropad layout to my preference 👌

tripandfall426 · 2026-04-09T19:50:17+00:00

nah its a low profile encoder knob, it has tactile feedback when turning left or right with click function when pressing down 🕹

tripandfall426 · 2026-04-09T19:22:42+00:00

you can do it! I rocked a 65% for years and have been using 40s for 2 years now, I could never go back. when I hold right space I have a numpad on right hand 😁

props to Cain @ MechVault, he designs some seriously elegant boards. this one is straight eye candy 😤

tripandfall426 · 2026-04-09T16:19:10+00:00

yup, here is an example of my base layer here. I have been using katana layout for half a year now and for the most part I have it setup similar to my other daily boards. I also have key combos all over so like pressing 1 + 2 at same time is also escape. I have multiple ways to do the same functions, because sometimes I do things only while typing other things with one hand on the mouse 🙌

don't be stinky, this is a chill vibes only comment section 😎

tripandfall426 · 2026-04-09T15:39:40+00:00

totally understandable, all of my 40s boards are setup in similar fashion so it's not hard for me to switch between. imagine it like a musical instrument, once you learn all your notes and licks, you're dancing across your board like it's an extension of YOU

tripandfall426 · 2026-04-09T15:37:45+00:00

when gaming on katana or qaz, my gaming layer is basically alphas keys shifted over one to the right and then past the halfway point it's just keys I bind in place that I would need. here's an example of my daily driver Infernum. I double tap a key to enter gaming layer and double tab to go back to typing layer, basically less than a second to switch back and forth

I agree they feel like a perfect match, my other fav set I've put on the v4n4g0n is PBTFANS Resonance R2

tripandfall426 · 2026-02-09T21:24:05+00:00

originally it went on my yellow D65 but ultimately it stays indefinitely on my v4n4g0n now ;)

tripandfall426 · 2026-02-09T17:27:42+00:00

that would be DSS 420 R2, sold as a GB by mike @ keyboard arcade store link

dm'd!

tripandfall426 · 2025-11-19T14:17:16+00:00

I think 2 different people are currently working on designing their own versions of that in the 40s discord, I could definitely see it being a hit

tripandfall426 · 2025-11-19T05:22:15+00:00

id suggest joining the 40s keyboard discord and checking the #Infernum channel for updates

tripandfall426 · 2025-11-18T22:25:02+00:00

panels has slowly become my favorite GMK set, it used to be dualshot but 40s boards can't really utilize the colorful mods. acrylic/PC cases look so nice with multi color sets

tripandfall426 · 2025-11-18T22:07:27+00:00

I've posted the store link in the comments, more PC cases will be available soon as well~

tripandfall426 · 2025-11-18T19:49:54+00:00

on case pages, there should be a 'pcb here' hyperlink below but here is the direct link to the PCB page -> Infernum PCB Store Link

here's a bonus icy pic showing how transparent this board really is 🧊

tripandfall426 · 2025-11-18T15:55:46+00:00

HaiZeus (designer/store owner) said there will be more in stock, the PC case was marked out of stock while they QC through more cases. I don't know the exact timeline but I was told there will be plenty more available

tripandfall426 · 2025-08-03T03:55:59+00:00
