What will you mostly use it for?
The Ace 68 HE has the edge for gaming on its listed polling rate, adjustable actuation range and Snap Tap feature. Its 65% layout also makes it the more practical fit here for office tasks, programming and content work, though neither board has a function row or numpad. The Wooting 60HE is the more compact travel pick and provides a specific onboard profile and layer setup. For switch experimentation, the Ace 68 HE's mixed magnetic-switch setup is more flexible than the Wooting's Lekker-only hot-swap PCB.

MCHOSE Ace 68 HE vs Wooting 60HE: your questions
The Ace 68 HE lists an 8,000 Hz polling rate, adjustable actuation from 0.1 to 3.4 mm and Snap Tap. Both keyboards have Hall Effect switches and Rapid Trigger, so the Ace has the clearer listed advantage for those specific gaming features.
Yes, Rapid Trigger is listed for the Wooting 60HE. The product description also identifies its switches as Lekker Linear60 magnetic Hall Effect switches with adjustable actuation.
The MCHOSE Ace 68 HE has a 65% layout, while the Wooting 60HE has a 60% layout and is listed as a 61-key keyboard. Both omit a function row and numpad, and the Wooting compatibility note also specifies no dedicated arrow keys.
It is a 65% keyboard, and its layout is larger than the Wooting 60HE's 60% layout. The Wooting's compatibility note explicitly says it has no dedicated arrow keys, making the Ace the more suitable choice if that layout feature is important.
No. Both keyboards are specified for magnetic switches only, and standard MX switches will not fit their sockets.
MCHOSE describes the Ace 68 HE as supporting mixed magnetic switch setups across individual keys. Its sockets still accept magnetic switches only, so standard MX switches are not an option.
The Wooting 60HE is listed as hot-swappable, but its product description says the PCB is designed to work only with Lekker switches. It uses Lekker Linear60 magnetic Hall Effect switches.
Yes. Its product description lists four keyboard profiles, each with three programmable layers. It also specifies 8 MB of onboard memory.
The Wooting 60HE is the smaller-format choice, with a 60% layout compared with the Ace 68 HE's 65% layout. Both are wired-only keyboards, so neither is listed with wireless connectivity.
The Wooting 60HE product listing explicitly names Linux compatibility, alongside Windows and Mac compatibility. The MCHOSE listing names Mac and Windows support.
The Ace 68 HE's compatibility notes warn that Cherry-profile keycaps can hit the switch housing with north-facing LEDs. They also say shine-through legends stay dark with south-facing LEDs, and some sculpted keycaps may clip the LED.
MCHOSE lists silicone sound-absorbing pads and a silicone bottom pad for the Ace 68 HE. The Wooting 60HE product description lists EPDM foam and a Poron sandwich pad.
