Title: Cherry G83-6105 - keycap... MX compatible?
Post by: ShivaYash on Mon, 01 July 2013, 04:39:55

Hello,

A quick question that no doubt someone here will be able to answer.

Will the keycaps from this Cherry G83-6105 fit their MX switches?

Many thanks,

SY

Ah I see. I was under the impression 'some' other Cherry switch keycaps were compatible with the MX.

Many thanks,

Key caps from G81 (Cherry MY switch) keyboards are compatible with G80 (Cherry MX switches). G83 aren't.
