The Gateron CAP Yellow Switch is a linear mechanical keyboard switch ideally suited for both everyday use and gaming. It impresses with its low actuation force, consistent actuation without tactile bump or click noise, and good compatibility with hot-swappable motherboards in the MX footprint. Thanks to its milky-transparent housing, it also boasts a modern look, especially in RGB-lit builds.
