It brings a whole new typing and gaming experience, and is growing quickly in popularity within the Mechanical Keyboard scene. The smoothness of each Gateron switch stroke can be best described as: sliding a hot knife through butter. These Gateron switches are fully SMD-LED compatible, (+) stem, and have a rated lifetime of 50 million cycles.  The switches were designed to be used with our GMMK & GMMK PRO, but can be used with other keyboards and DIY projects just fine.    Switch Color Type Noise Level when Typing What does it feel like? Browns Tactile Medium A hybrid between a Linear and Clicky switches. Does not generate a click when pressed, but the tactile bump is still present. Ideal for those who want a tactile bump and work around peers.   LINEAR VS CLICKY VS TACTILE  There are three main categories of mechanical keyboard switches: linear, clicky, and tactile.  Linear switches have the simplest operation, as they move straight up and down without any clicky/tactile feedback.  Clicky switches are also tactile but generate a audible click and noticeable bump when pressed.  Tactile switches create a noticeable bump when pressed, and no clicky noise.  SO WHAT IS THE BEST SWITCH FOR GAMING? Typically, the decision comes down to personal preference, and there has been no proven difference on a particular switch providing advantage over another.  Linear switches, such as Red Switches, have been long preferred by gamers as it allows for rapid spamming of keys very quickly. Clicky switches are preferred for heavy typers, such as programmers, as it allows you to know exactly when a key has been registered with the clicking noise (aka the actuation point).  Tactile switches are the best of both worlds and the most popular type of switch. All the Glorious Modular Mechanical Keyboards come pre-installed with this switch.   SPECIFICATIONS  Manufacturer: Gateron Compatible with the GMMK & GMMK PRO Compatible with Cherry/Gateron/Kailh based keyboards Compatible with + stem keycaps PLATE Mounted Transparent switch housing SMD Led Compatible  Lifetime: 50 million cycles
