Why Customize Your Board?

Simple. Want a keyboard that meets your exact gaming, productivity, and aesthetic needs? Boardsmith has you covered. Plus, it costs less than starting with a Prebuilt and buying accessories separately.

Gaming Performance

If you’re after the latest in gaming tech, Hall Effect is the way to go—offering an arsenal of powerful features not possible on traditional mechanical keyboards. Plus, Boardsmith is the only keyboard builder that lets you choose both your switch technology AND type sound and feel.

Custom Aesthetics

As the world’s most customizable keyboard, you can personalize everything: the top frame, bottom case, keycaps, badge, knob, cord, lighting, and even choose between polymer plastic or CNC-machined aluminum. Mix and match colors and materials to make it truly your own!

Typing Experience

Though your switches of choice define the sound and tactility of your typing, you can also tailor other aspects: you can adjust the firmness or flexibility of your presses with modular gaskets, or refine the acoustics with a range of switch plate materials, like brass or polycarbonate.
