Title: Do optical clicky switches feel like mechanical clicky switches?
Post by: Horaceyo on Thu, 12 November 2020, 14:10:50

Hi, I'm thinking of getting my first mechanical keyboard the gk61 in blue clicky switches, I know optical switches are faster but was wondering if the switches optical switches feel like true mechanical switches?
I am switching from mecha dome switches and as it is my first mechanical keyboard I wanna be sure the optical clicky switches are gonna have the satisfying click of a mechanical clicky switch since their optical, and is it worth it?
(Switching from Logitech G213)
Any help is appreciated
