Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use HyperX tactile switches in any hot-swap mechanical keyboard?
Yes, as long as your keyboard supports 5-pin hot-swap switches. Most modern hot-swap keyboards do. If your keyboard only supports 3-pin, you may need to clip the extra plastic legs.
Are HyperX tactile switches pre-lubed?
Yes, they come pre-lubed from the factory to provide a smoother keypress and reduce noise.
What is the HyperX Aqua switch actuation force?
The HyperX Aqua (tactile) switch has a 45g actuation force, similar to other tactile switches like Cherry MX Brown.
HyperX tactile vs red linear switches: which is better for gaming?
Tactile switches provide a bump for feedback, which some gamers prefer for accuracy. Linear switches are smoother and faster. It's a matter of personal preference. Tactile switches are often recommended for typing and competitive gaming that requires precise inputs.
Where can I buy HyperX tactile switches at a discount?
At Mekibo, they're on sale for $11.50 (compare at $23). Use coupon code MEKIBO15 at checkout for an additional 15% off.

Nice tactile feel
These switches have a satisfying bump. Pre-lubed out of the box, so they feel smooth. They're a bit heavier than what I had, but I like them.

Good, but a bit scratchy
They're decent, but I can feel some scratchiness even though they're pre-lubed. Maybe not as smooth as other higher-end switches. But they work fine and the price is right.

Smooth and responsive
I've tried many switches, and these are now my favorite. The 5-pin design makes them stable, and they're pre-lubed so they're buttery smooth. The tactile bump is not too strong, perfect for long gaming sessions. They feel like they'll last forever given the 80M rating. Great value for the price.

Good value
For the price, these are great. They fit easily into my hot-swap keyboard. They have a nice bump and are quieter than my previous switches. Happy with the purchase.
