More Info

M65-B


With the M65-B, we at RAMA WORKS® are re-engineering one of our more popular boards from the ground up.


Beyond the new engineering redesign, the M65-B boasts per-switch RGB LEDs and USB-C. Also highlighted with this new board is a thoughtful layout which provides all the keys you’ll ever need, for any game or task - elegantly spaced out. Each element of the keyboard is meticulously crafted, from our new countersunk screws to custom-made laser-etched Stainless Steel TORX T10 fasteners.


Designed for the ultimate performance, a fully machined brass switch plate sits isolated from the enclosure, its PVD coated and hand-polished to a mirror finish.


In addition to these enhancements in our offering, we are also integrating our previously released MUTE, our engineered mounting technology, made of non-conductive silicone. This new system provides yet an extra layer of response as it deadens the sound while cushioning each keystroke.

RAMA WORKS MUTE


With the M65-B we’re adding our RAMA WORKS® MUTE plate mounting & dampening solution.
For this release of the M65-B it’s being moulded in the ICED colourway, also dispersing more light from the per-switch RGB.


The MUTE isolates the plate inside the enclosure providing a unique typing experience.

SOLDERLESS OR SOLDERABLE & IN-SWITCH RGB


In an effort to provide the best end-user experience available, the M65-B PCB requires no soldering to construct with any Cherry MX-compatible switches. The M65-B offers a USB-C connection attached to the USB Extension PCB. There are also additional PCBs also available for individual sale. The board includes in-switch RGB LEDs under the PCB, which require no installation. The RGB LED’s (+ animations) and layout are programmable in real-time through our GUI Editor, VIA.


The M65-Bx variant is a solderable version without hotswap sockets for those who are discerning with their switch choice. 

LAYOUT


The M65-B HOTSWAP PCB is fixed layout, as shown below. The M65-Bx SOLDERABLE PCB allows a stepped capslock and 2U backspace (or split).

THE EDITIONS


The M65-B comes in a variety of materials and finishes. The ICED edition is CNC Machined Polycarbonate that is finished to give it a brilliant frosted finish. The KURO/MOON edition is CNC Machined Aluminium that is carefully bead-blasted to a consistently smooth finish then anodised to the perfect colour. The YOLK/MILK editions are CNC machined aluminium which are then electrophoretically coated to their bold matte finish; this process has a failure rate in which the failures must be scrapped and cannot be refinished. And finally, the ROSE edition is milled from a solid block of brass to its final form, it then goes through a series of finishes and then polished by hand to a perfect mirror finish.

GO HEAVIER


There is also an optional interior weight for extra heft and resonance. The optional interior weight is a beadblasted brass weight which has been PVD coated. The weight adds some extra stability to the exceptionally solid build of the M65-B.

DAMPENER


The optional interior dampener is a moulded silicone insert which absorbs the sound inside the keyboard for an adjusted acoustic signature. There’s a new ICED variant to match the new edition M65-B.

RW FT MX-X T10 A FASTENERS


The M65-B utilises our custom fasteners. You’ll only need one tool, a Torx T10 driver (included), to assemble and disassemble most of the keyboard. Except for the CSK screws in the plate which uses a T6 driver (included)
