Thanks to MSI for sponsoring this video!
Check out their Prestige 16 AI+ laptop below! msi.gm There's a new 60 percent keyboard from Wuque Studios/Chilkey coming out and we've got our hands on it early. Seriously, this might be the best sounding keyboard we've had on set in a long time. Partly due to its metal design and partly due to the awesome Poseidon switches. The keyboard comes out June 16th, and more information will be on the company's website June 1.
