Know before you buy
These switches provide a distinct tactile bump and an audible click with every press. They are ideal for users who prefer clear physical and sound-based feedback while typing.
These are designed for mechanical keyboards that use Cherry MX-compatible stems. Before purchasing, verify that your keyboard's PCB supports hot-swappable switches or that you are comfortable desoldering and soldering switches if your board is not hot-swappable.
Yes, these switches are specifically designed to be compatible with RGB backlighting. The housing allows light to pass through, ensuring your custom lighting effects remain vibrant.
This set includes 65 switches, which is sufficient for most 60% or 65% compact mechanical keyboards. If you are using a tenkeyless (TKL) or full-sized keyboard, you will need to purchase additional sets to cover all keys.
While they are highly popular for typing due to their satisfying feedback, some gamers find the clicky nature and the reset point of Blue switches less ideal for rapid-fire gaming compared to linear switches. However, personal preference is the deciding factor, and many users enjoy them for both tasks.
