The Ultimate Mechanical Keyboard Catalog

I like blue switches for both gaming and typing, even compared to a membrane keyboard blue switches are significantly better for gaming. Typing on blue switches is easier because of the clicking feedback, as well as the tactile bump.

Best to type on

This switch is good for typing and gaming, but key pressure is quite heavy.

Blue Cherry is like the click-clack you have to have experienced once in a life time.

If you like clickiness you can hear and feel, this is probably the switch for you. It's not the equal of the venerated buckling spring (nothing is), but you'll still have fun driving your coworkers crazy.

While typing on these feels much better than many rubberdomes, it's simply nothing to write home about. Unfortunately, Cherry MX switches like cheap, plasticky firecrackers in comparison to Matias Click switches.

Cherry MX blues are a good starting point for typists, but it doesn't go much beyond that; they feel like toys compared to other clickers. The loudness can be annoying and ruins game immersion and should be used mostly for typing.

Great for those who like a noticeable click in their switches.
