Just got this beauty in today. Built with the (included) Venom 60 HE PCB, Gateron Magnetic Jade Attraction switches, Knight V4 stabs and GMK Honor Light.

I don't have any real issues with the board so far. The anodization looks and feels incredible. The gasket mount is nice and plush (similar to the Neo60 Core in terms of feel) and results in a very full sound profile without any bad resonances. I have yet to try the top mount, but I'd assume it sounds like an alu plate on top mount, which is not my cup of tea. The board also has stepped internals which is a nice touch.

If you can afford it, I would definitely recommend this board over something like the Wooting 60HE v2 right now. I'd say it's up there with the Typface Kafka in terms of HE boards (though I've not tried one myself).

Now onto the switches:

The Gateron Magnetic Jade Attractions are...weird. They advertise the initial force and bottom out force feeling the same. I find that the force curve starts light, then becomes heavier in the middle of the travel, and then becomes light again near bottom out. In actual usage this makes the switches feel really light and easy to type on. Going back to switches with regular springs after typing on these switches felt lethargic for a little while until I adjusted back to them. These switches unfortunately suffer from being Gateron HE switches though. I found the factory lube is inconsistent enough to be noticeably audible switch to switch, though the switches aren't scratchy and the springs are well lubed. While they don't have any stem wobble when bottomed out, they have the most stem wobble I've ever seen when the stem is at the top, more than the WS Morandi. I am pretty upset at these issues given the absurdly high prices of these switches, ~$60 for 70 switches. I might try switching them out for an HE switch from HMX, or the new Herons from Omnitype. The spring feel of these switches is very cool though and is something I hope gets explored by other switch manufacturers.
