Introduction

Wind Studio is a custom mechanical keyboard company that was established as recently as 2021. So while it doesn't enjoy the reputation of longer lasting brands in this highly competitive market, I had already heard good things about its products such as the Wind Z75 and Wind X98. In particular, Wind Studio appears to go the group-buying route for its kits that are highly customizable and entail a lot more building than what we have usually covered in this series. A representative from the brand contacted me on TechPowerUp directly and a few messages back and forth led to this article.


Today we are building another keyboard but it happens to be the most intensive such venture taken thus far. While there is no soldering to be done anywhere, the new Wind Sin65 keyboard kit necessitates you to assemble the entire kit from various components that all come neatly packed and shipped together. If you are into DIY PC building then perhaps this is exactly what you need to scratch off that itch after the PC is complete. The Sin65 comes in a lot of different options when it comes to the case type and color in addition to the PCB and connectivity features. You can choose what you prefer based on the ongoing group buy and even there Wind Studio will provide further customization options in terms of the keyboard mount style before we even get to stabilizers, switches, and keycaps. Thanks to Wind Studio for providing a sample of the Sin65 kit as well as some stabilizers and switches!
