What Keyboard Does aceu Use?

aceu's keyboard history

aceu's history covers three keyboards, and the move to the current one is the most recent change. He started this stretch on the Ducky One 2 TKL in September 2022 and used it for 8.6 months. In May 2023 he moved to the Wooting 60HE+.

That board became his longest-running keyboard at 27.0 months (2.2 years). In August 2025 he switched to the Wooting 80HE Black, with the change dated to 2025-08-29. He has used it for 13.8 months (1.2 years) so far.

Both of his last two boards are Wooting models, and he has stayed with the brand since May 2023.

Switches and actuation

The Wooting 80HE Black is sold with six switch options: Lekker Linear 45 v2, Lekker Linear 60 v2, Lekker Tikken Light, Lekker Tikken Medium, Geon Raw HE and Wooting x TTC KOM. The list gives you two linear Lekker options, two Tikken options in different weights, and two further switches from Geon and the Wooting x TTC collaboration.

The PCB is hotswappable, so you are not locked into the switch you start with. You can try a different one from that list without soldering anything.

Key binds

The binds are simple and stay close to the left hand's home position. In VALORANT, movement sits on L-Shift for walking and L-Ctrl for crouching. Jump is on Space Bar, and use object is on F.

Weapons are on the number keys 1 to 4, and the abilities are on E, Q, C and X. All of them can be reached without moving your hand off the movement keys.

In Apex Legends the layout follows the same logic. Crouch stays on L-Ctrl and sprint on L-Shift, tactical ability is on Q, and interact is on E. Inventory (Tab), map (M), fire mode (B) and grenade (G) are all on keys near the left hand. Healing items sit on the number row, from 5 to 9.

Should you buy aceu's keyboard?

The Wooting 80HE Black is a TKL board, 34.6 cm wide and 14.2 cm deep, and it weighs 790 g. It suits players who want a compact layout with a dedicated arrow cluster and who like being able to change switches. It has RGB and a hotswappable PCB, and the six switch options give you room to find your preferred feel.

• Wooting 80HE+ Frost: the same size, height and weight as aceu's board, with the same switch options and hotswappable PCB. Six pros use it right now.
• Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL Black: 70 g lighter and 0.2 cm shorter, but 1.8 cm wider and 1.06 cm taller. It uses Razer Analog Optical switches and a non-hotswappable PCB. Five pros use it right now.
• SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL (2023): 0.6 cm shorter, 0.9 cm wider and 1.06 cm taller. It uses OmniPoint 2.0 switches and a non-hotswappable PCB. Four pros use it right now.

In short, the Frost is the near-identical choice. The Razer and SteelSeries boards are taller and fixed to their own switch types, which is the trade-off for their different sizes.
