I tried them Clicky/Linear Green Alps are MechanicalKeyboards.com. To me they felt like Clicky White Alps with a lot of grit in them and much heavier. Not my favorite Alps switch. I prefer Tactile Black, Clicky White, and Clicky Blues. But definitely interesting to try out. Let us know how you like it OP.

Personally, the perfect thing to go along with that board is a set of Matias Quiet Click switches to replace the XMs.  And honestly, stick the springs from the XMs into the Matias switches and it's soooo nice. My board was physically DOA, so all I have is the insides.  *le sigh*

I'm putting Clicky White Alps from a Focus FK-2001 in my 1087XM PCB. Then cutting down a Dell AT101W case to be a TKL because I don't really like the Ducky case. :D

I noticed Mechanical Keyboards.com stopped selling this on their website. Is it sold out or discontinued?
