Meiy's keyboard history

Meiy has moved between three different keyboards and switched four times. The Wooting 60HE+ is the constant: he started 2024 on it, left briefly, and came back. That makes it his longest-running board by a wide margin, and the 17.6-month stretch from March 2025 to August 2026 is the longest single period.

The detour in between was the Pulsar PCMK 2 HE TKL White, which lasted only 1.4 months before he returned to the Wooting. The Pulsar PCMK 3 is the newest move, from August 2026. Going from the PCMK 2 HE to the PCMK 3 means Pulsar is the brand he has now chosen twice, though only the second time stuck beyond a few weeks so far.

Switches and actuation

The Pulsar PCMK 3 is a 60% board with a hotswappable PCB, and it is sold with Gateron x Pulsar switches. Hotswap sockets mean the switches can be pulled out and replaced without soldering, so the board can be set up with different switches later if you want to change the feel.

If you are comparing it with the boards he used before, the Wooting 60HE+ is also hotswappable. It is sold with a range of Lekker linear and Tikken options, plus Wooting x TTC KOM and Geon Raw HE switches. The Ducky alternatives below are not hotswappable and come with Cherry MX Red, Brown or Blue, so the switch you buy is the switch you keep.

Key binds

The layout is simple and easy to copy on a 60% board. Movement modifiers sit on the left-hand keys: walk on L-Shift and crouch on L-Ctrl, with jump on Space. Weapon slots use the number row, 1 to 4, so you do not need any function-layer tricks.

Abilities use C, Q and X for the first, second and ultimate slots. These keys are all within easy reach of the left hand and are all available on a compact 60% layout. Because nothing here depends on keys a 60% board lacks, the setup carries over directly to the smaller form factor.

Should you buy Meiy's keyboard?

The PCMK 3 suits anyone who wants a compact 60% board with a hotswappable PCB and RGB. A 60% keeps the footprint small and leaves more room for the mouse, and Meiy's binds all fit within it.

The alternatives trade off in a few ways:

If you want to change switches later, pick one of the two hotswappable boards. If you want a lighter board and are happy with a fixed Cherry MX switch, the Ducky is the simpler option.
