Title: Spot That Cherry! (Gold Plated PCB Mount Stabs Giveaway) [WINNER ANNOUNCED]
Post by: Zeal on Thu, 22 January 2015, 01:48:12
As some GHers may know, I've recently gotten some Gateron switches (http://i.imgur.com/Kqntxok.jpg) to play with... Upon first impression, they looked awfully like MX Clear stems. That's when I decided to start a game...:D

Reward: One set of Gold Plated PCB Mount Stabs + 1x 7u Gold Plated PCB Mount Stab as seen in the following picture. I will cover shipping worldwide.

There are visual differences on a stem, but you'd need to capture a macro shot of them side by side.
Can't say what they are though, so it's pretty much blind guessing if you don't spot it.

Hard to say if I can "spot it" if I already know the answer.

Post by: nubbinator on Thu, 22 January 2015, 20:41:41
So here's my guesses

(http://i.imgur.com/g8cbATn.jpg)


It looks like the Gateron switches have two difference I've seen, both very difficult to see in this picture.  First, it looks like they have the same stem width for the x and y axis.  The x axis is a little thicker on Clears.  It also looks like the Gaterons have a chamfer on on the lip that goes straight the the edge while the MX Clears have the tiniest of gaps and a slightly more rounded top edge of the chamfer. Clears also look like they may have a more clear center line from the mold.

The chamfer is what I was thinking but I don't see the x axis thing.

Look at the stems top down.  It doesn't show well in pictures, but you can kind of see it here:

(http://i.imgur.com/Cm3Ob2c.jpg)

(http://i.imgur.com/odXCexf.jpg)


The Cherry switch is slightly thinner on the y-axis.  It's most noticeable on the top (rearmost) half of the cross.  In person, you can eyeball them and see that they're not perfectly the same size.  The Gateron looks symmetrical.

I can't be arsed to circle them while I'm at work, so for today could you be a doll and go ahead and circle the ones that you would pick?  No pressure or anything, it just would be helpful.  Thanks!

:rolleyes:

A doll...?

Congrats nubbs :)

Looking at the solution I was kinda expecting to see something that is, in retrospect, blindingly obvious.

But I can't.

It's still all as clear as mud to me.
