Know before you buy
The main difference lies in the pin construction: the v1 features a bronze pin, while the v2 utilizes a silver-plated pin for improved conductivity and long-term reliability.
These switches are compatible with any keyboard that supports standard Cherry MX-style mechanical switches. If your board is hot-swappable or uses soldered Cherry MX-style switches, these will fit.
With an actuation point of 1.08mm, these switches are designed for rapid response. This shorter travel distance allows for faster inputs, which is particularly beneficial for competitive gaming where split-second reactions matter.
With an operating force of 45 ± 4gf, these are considered medium-light linear switches. They provide enough resistance to prevent accidental key presses while remaining light enough for comfortable, extended typing sessions.
The TTC Speed Silver switches are engineered for a smooth, consistent feel right out of the box. While enthusiasts often choose to manually lubricate switches for a specific sound profile, these perform reliably without any additional modification.
