 | Cherry MX Red | Linear | No | 45cN | Most popular mechanical switch with gamers because of low actuation force and linear construction. |
Cherry MX red switches are among the most popular switches for gaming keyboards. They are very easy to press down (only 45cN actuation force) and are built in a linear way – this means you will not feel the actual “switch” when pressing down a key. These switches are very light to use, so you can have the best reaction times in FPS games. They feel more “classic”, so the switch from regular keyboards is not that hard. A great choice of keys for CS:GO!
