Here’s the keyboard, pretty cheap for an RGB mechanical keyboard:
The switches it came with weren’t very good though at all and it sounded pretty cheap. Here’s how it sounded originally:
I clipped, lubed, and silenced the stabs. I also replaced the switches it came with. The new switches are Greetech SMD RGB housing with Aliaz stems. Lubed with Tribosys 3204. The stabs are also lubed with 3204 and Krytox 207 on the wires of the stab to avoid rattle.
Here’s what I did to the case in addition to the better switches and stabs:
Here is how it sounds after all of the changes:

Edit: here’s a quicker way to hear the difference, before and after edited into one video:
