What switch and keyboard model best suit hybrid gaming and typing?
#1
I'm in the market for a new mechanical gaming keyboard after my old membrane one finally gave out, but I'm overwhelmed by the choices in switches, brands, and features. I primarily play fast-paced FPS and MOBA games, so I need something responsive and durable, but I also do a fair amount of typing for work, so I don't want it to be unbearably loud or fatiguing. I've been researching Cherry MX switches, but the variety of clones and new optical switches has me confused. For gamers who have tested multiple boards, what switch type and specific keyboard model would you recommend for this hybrid use case? I'm also curious about the real-world benefits of features like hot-swappable switches, dedicated macro keys, and high polling rates versus their added cost.
