Your Guide to Clicky Mechanical Switches
Clicky switches are a popular choice for keyboard enthusiasts who enjoy audible and tactile feedback. This guide answers common questions to help you select the right clicky switch for your mechanical keyboard.
What defines a clicky switch?
A clicky switch produces a sharp 'click' sound and a noticeable tactile bump when you press it. This is typically achieved through a two-piece stem design or a 'click jacket' that strikes the switch housing during actuation.
Are clicky switches good for gaming?
While many gamers prefer linear switches for their smooth, uninterrupted travel, some appreciate the clear actuation point of clicky switches. The audible feedback can confirm a keypress, which is useful in certain game genres. However, the noise might be a drawback for streaming or shared environments.
Are clicky switches good for typing?
Clicky switches are often favored by typists. The tactile bump helps reduce bottoming out, and the audible click provides a satisfying rhythm, which can improve typing speed and accuracy for some users. The Cherry MX Blue is a classic example beloved by writers.
What are the most popular clicky switches?
Some of the most well-known clicky switches include the Cherry MX Blue, known for its distinct click and tactile feel. Gateron Blues are a popular alternative, often considered smoother. Kailh BOX White switches offer a crisper, more subtle click and are also highly regarded for their stability and dust-resistance.
How does actuation force affect the feel of a clicky switch?
Actuation force is the pressure required to register a keypress. A lower actuation force (e.g., 45g) means the switch is easier to press, which can be beneficial for speed. A higher force (e.g., 60g+) provides more resistance, which some users find more deliberate and satisfying, reducing accidental keypresses.
