So I want to know fellow GH'ers, which key switches have you found to be the most satisfying and why?

Yet another Topre vs. Cherry flamewar? Enough internets for today...

CPTBadAss · « **Reply #2 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 10:18:09 »

I written down my thoughts on all the switches I've ever tried here.

daerid · « **Reply #3 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 11:09:27 »

Could you possibly change the thread title to something just like "General Switch Satisfaction"? We really, really, really don't need another "vs" thread.

That being said, I've gotten the most satisfaction out of my 55g Topre purchases. Although the FC660C is creeping up there, as it's currently my daily driver. In the Cherry world, browns are/were my winner, although that might change when my ErgoDox and GH60 get put together as both use Clears, which are a little bit more Topre-like.

Every time I see threads like this, I just think of 'Mac vs PC'. Typically ridiculous arguments being made. Switches are all about personal preference

/threadplease

+1 to spamfry for his insightful post.

Honestly I was hesitating to leave a damning remark to the op and let the forum just ignore this... but if it's gonna be a party?

Another one of these threads? Did you bother searching, or you just like repeated info?

^__^ It's all good. I respect your opinion cpt.

But if you see me and my brown/red loving friends flashing Cherry MX red gang signs, you better keep walking.

I like all switches.

AKIMbO · « **Reply #22 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 17:42:54 »

55g topres...closely followed by 62g mx clears and capacitive buckling spring.

MJ45 · « **Reply #23 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 18:39:26 »

I am very satisfied with Topre and Cherry MX but I still need to try some ALPs and buckling springs to be sure about it and form my own opinions on them.

AJCarrington · « **Reply #24 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 19:48:44 »

Tried the Leo Topre and Realforce...much preferred the Leo. However, still finding myself going back to my MX blues.

morpheus · « **Reply #25 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 20:08:49 »

Eep.

I guess I learned my lesson. No more VS threads. Someone please delete this thread and pretend it never existed.

daerid · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 24 May 2013, 23:32:42 »

Just modify the first post and change the title, and all will be well
