Stabilizers
PCB Mount/Screw-in stabilizers tend to vibrate less. M5 full-sized keyboard
barebone uses Akko screw-in stabilizers (un-assembled)
with nylon housing in case users want to lubricate.
South-facing PCB
The south-facing PCB of the MonsGeek M5 avoids causing interference
with Cherry profile keycaps, offering more compatibility and flexibility.
Customizable RGB

which allow users to adjust the brightness and flowing speed levels. Moreover,
it supports a wide range of RGB effects, with over 16.8 million colors available.
Users can also install an upcoming JSON file to access even more lighting effects

New Silver Accent

silver accent on other models. MonsGeek will start to offer standalone accents
for sale to better personalize each unit based on user preference.
N-Key Rollover
The N-Key Rollover technology allows all keys to work simultaneously and ensures
every keystroke is recorded and prevents ghosting.

sticker for aethestics purposes.
QMK/VIA

Need More Foam?
Monsgeek has developed its own budget custom material that performs
equally as well as poron. Meanwhile, MonsGeek M5 comes with an additional
sponage case foam to reduce case ping.

down to your personal preference.
