THE SWITCH STORY

Since the very beginning, we’ve obsessed over quality. That’s why we’re excited to bring you our own premium CORSAIR switch technology, geared to perform for even the most demanding players.

With switches that optimize the speed of each key, provide an excellent responsive feeling as you press down, and produce a satisfying sound of every keystroke, we’ve crafted a wide selection of switches that offer the perfect sensory experience for you.

WHAT IS THIS SWITCHCRAFT?

Already know how a switch works? Keep scrolling. If you don’t, don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. Let’s talk about switch basics.

Each key on a keyboard has a switch that registers an input when the key is pressed down. A keypress can be detected through:

  • An electrical contact at the bottom of the switch (as with most mechanical switches)
  • A beam of light that is interrupted as a key is depressed (optical switches)
  • A magnet passing through an electrical field inside a switch (magnetic switches)

The end result is the same: as a key is pressed, the keystroke input is transmitted and the result is displayed on-screen.

CUSTOM ACTUATION

Custom actuation enables you to set the point a keypress registers from 0.4 to 3.6mm, to personalize your typing experience from the lightest touch or the strongest keypress.

Whether you shorten the actuation distance for fast actions and commands, or lengthen it to increase typing accuracy, you decide how your keystrokes land.

CUSTOM ACTUATION
RAPID TRIGGER

RAPID TRIGGER

Rapid Trigger enables hyper-quick movements that simply aren't possible on conventional gaming keyboards.

With Rapid Trigger enabled, keys instantly reset the moment they travel upward. The result is faster and more precise actions, giving you a step over your opponents.

DUAL ACTUATION

Dual actuation allows you to assign two discrete actions to any key. Assign two spells for instant, satisfying, combos or switch between a walk and a sprint without needing a second key or modifier.

Dual actuation is only available on keyboards featuring magnetic switches, giving you the advantage in-game.
