This is a review video and modding of my GMMK full size (100%) with lubed gateron reds, clipped stabilizers, band-aid modded stabs, and HyperX keycaps. I do some keyboard build ASMR in the later half of the video.

This is the GMMK Full Size. I bought it from Microcenter for 59$ Much like the other GMMK models, it features a sturdy aluminum top plate with a nice finish and clean aesthetic and hot swap sockets. Many of the same features GMMK is known for like a fingerprint resistant finish, weights, and foam padding are here, but unlike the other models, it does not include a detachable USB C, which was surprising. Because I prefer TKL sizes, this one fact did make me like the TKL and compact models more. Regardless, this board is a fantastic entry into the world of mechanical keyboards. 

I chose to outfit this board with Gateron Red switches and hyperx keycaps. 

After recording some sounds, I removed all the switches and lubed them with Krytox 205g0. I normally use tactile switches, but because I was using linear switches, I didn’t have to worry about not getting any lubricant on the stem legs. I then Clipped and band-aid modded the Stabilizers. Just like the other GMMK models I own, it was extremely easy to mod, and made an improvement that is easy to hear. Take a listen to the before and after. 

I do suggest getting this board if you prefer the 100% layout, you are on a budget, and already have some switches and keycaps. the compact or the TKL, the GMMK boards are great choices, but just like this model are not wireless.
