## Description

desertcart.com: Glorious GMMK 2 Gaming Keyboard Base - Full Size Barebones Kit- Hot Swappable Black Mechanical Keyboard - Modular, Wired, RGB Backlit,- PC Setup Accessories - 96%, Black : Electronics

Review: love this keyboard - This keyboard looks amazing and its so easily customizable. It's well built and very durable and feels like a premium product. I've always loved a keypad on my keyboards and was very happy this has the keypad for switches to be installed at. However make sure you get caps without a wide zero key for the numpad as that won't fit. Also, while it is "white" on the bottom, the size that you see facing you is actually silver.
Review: GMMK 2 96 - Great hardware, Software not so much. - This board is great I have zero complaints. It can support 5 pin switches, and these are north side facing leds. If you already know what switches you are going to put in this board you cant beat the price. You will want to lubricate and tune the stabilizers, or just replace them altogether. To me the stock didn't sound/feel great stock. Aside from the stabilizers the board sounds great out of the box. The unit feels very solid, and the build quality is awesome. The software misses the mark completely. Glorious Core would not load at all. Normal troubleshooting yielded no results. Clean boot/compatibility modes/admin mode/uninstall/reinstall nothing really worked. Personally I would ditch the Glorious Core software and use QMK. I think its worth the time investment in learning how to use QMK with your GMMK2. If your Glorious Core experience was anything like mine it may be a lot less frustrating.

## Features

- Premium design and durability: The GMMK 2 Compact (96%) features an aluminum top shell, which makes the keyboard super durable and gives it maximum rigidity. The substantial weight and grippy rubber feet, mean it doesn't move on your desk while you game. Anodization of the aluminum gives the keyboard an impressive resistance to scratches and corrosion, and the fine brushing of the exterior creates a matte metallic finish that is smooth to the touch.
- Custom Full-Size Layout: With the GMMK 2 Full Size (96%) you don't have to sacrifice the Numpad for a small form factor. We've packed the best of a full-size keyboard in a form factor that is closer to a TKL. Save valuable keyboard space without losing functionality.
- Swappable mechanical switches & keycaps: The GMMK 2 Full Size (96%) hot swap sockets are specially designed for easy installation of any 5-pin switches. Easily install mechanical switches from Glorious, Cherry, Kailh, Gateron, Glorious Panda Switches, and more. No soldering is required to create the ultimate TKL gaming keyboard.
- Superior Sound: The pre-installed stabilizers are lubricated for a smooth and consistent press without rattle. Screw-in stabilizer mounts are available for modders wanting to use their own. Thick interior keyboard foam acts as a dampener to eliminate case ping. The GMMK 2 Full Size (96%) is a hot-swappable mechanical keyboard with great sound.
- Included Components: GMMK 2 Full Size (96%) Barebone Frame, 2M Black Braided Cable, Switch Puller, Keycap puller, 1 x Novelty ESC Key.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall amazing quality
*by A***T on December 16, 2022*

Great keyboard. Overall amazing quality. +Price, This keyboard is a great price for what you get. It is the cheapest barebones 1800/96% keyboard. +Quality, Surprisingly very high quality. For the price I wasn't expecting something quiet this nice. No complaints. +Software, The glorious core software is great. Allows you to program macros, change led colors, remap keys. Very useful. +Support, Glorious has some of the best support around. some cons - screw in stabilizers don't seem to fit without modification, Even the gsv2 from glorious. I tried with 2 different gmmk 2 pros. Both had the same issue. Random stabilizers are stuck no matter what I did. I think the top frame interferes with how the stabilizer lines up making it bind and get stuck bottomed out. -LED colors are slightly off. The sidelight led won't display yellow. It has a very obvious green tint. My gmmk pro does not have this issue. Overall I really like this keyboard. Was easy to build/work on and came out great when finished.
