Hi, I'm thinking of getting my first mechanical keyboard the gk61 in blue clicky switches, I know optical switches are faster but was wondering if the switches optical switches feel like true mechanical switches?
I am switching from mecha dome switches and as it is my first mechanical keyboard I wanna be sure the optical clicky switches are gonna have the satisfying click of a mechanical clicky switch since their optical, and is it worth it?
(Switching from Logitech G213)
Any help is appreciated
 
The fact they are optical don’t reply change how they feel, it’s purely/mostly down to the switch manufacturer how they feel (eg flaretech wooting)

Most of the time they will feel similar to their counterparts and some won’t, eg flaretech blues are much smoother and the click isn’t as aggressive.
