Assembling experience

I have now assembled 4 Mode Sonnet : 3 Hotswap and 1 soldered. I would say this is an easy build even if it has more steps than a more simple build like the Mode80. Once again, Mode’s build guide is super helpful, no matter the mounting way you choose to go for. What helped me the most was the screws legends so you know which go where and for what use. As always the building process is faster when you don’t have to solder the plate BUT it is so good to have an ISO option so I don’t mind when there a chance to have azerty layout !

Overall feedback

The ModeSonnet is one of the best 75% there is out there. yes the price can go up fast if you choose some materials like copper back but the multiple options can allow you to stay under $300-$400 which is worth it for that quality. Such a solid 75% option in my opinion.
