r/WootingKB

I'm very new to keyboard modding and planning to get a Wooting 80HE + KBDfans GT-80 and MK Black on Grey PBT keycaps. The only thing I have not settled on is the switches. I know I want silent switches, but I do not know which ones to get. I have heard samples of the following switches:

1. Off Studio X TNT Six Realms Silent
2. Outemu Peach Silent
3. XVX Whisper HE/EC
4. Haimu Silent HE
5. Gamakay Phoenix V3 Magnetic Silent

The best-sounding ones for me were the Outemu Peach Silent and the XVX Whisper HE/EC. Also, they are the only ones I can really get in the EU from a reliable seller. So my question is: do you know any other good silent switches, or are the five I mentioned above the only ones?

Anyone buying and would be kind enough to do sound test comparison?
The price is a bit steep for me to buy and try out.

Have tried the following so far and found the Outemu Peach Silent to be the quietest

1. Off Studio X TNT Six Realms Silent
2. Outemu Peach Silent
3. XVX Whisper HE/EC
4. Haimu Silent HE
5. Gamakay Phoenix V3 Magnetic Silent

Is anyone else still waiting for a proper TKL Wooting keyboard with HE + Rapid Trigger?

I actually created this Reddit account just for this topic. I still haven’t bought a Wooting keyboard, even though I think the products are technically excellent, simply because there is no true standard TKL option.

I’ve been waiting since around 2020, when Wooting became more established in the gaming space. Since then, multiple products have been released, but this one obvious gap is still there.

Quick overview of releases:

• Wooting One – 2017 Q2
• Wooting Two – 2018 Q3
• Wooting 60HE – 2022 Q2
• Wooting Two HE – 2022 Q4
• Wooting 60HE+ – 2023 Q1
• Wooting 80HE – 2024 Q3/Q4
• Wooting 60HE v2 – 2025 Q4
• Wooting TKL – where?

From my perspective:

• 60HE → too compact
• 80HE → not a true TKL, more of a hybrid layout
• Two HE → full size

What’s missing is a proper standardized TKL with HE + Rapid Trigger.

And that feels odd, because TKL is still one of the most common gaming layouts overall, especially in FPS and competitive gaming where mouse space + full functionality matters.

I’ve seen estimates that roughly 35–45% of gamers prefer TKL layouts, which is a significant share of the market.

Hi, I just got my first wooting and along with it a coiled cable.

I was just wondering why when I plug in the cable via my USB C port on my motherboard, it does not work, I have only been able to get the cable to work through the USB-C to A adapter which seems a bit wobbly. Has anyone had this issue?

I assume it's something to do with the length of the cable, causing a power draw issue.

Thanks!
