A worthy Upgrade!

I purchased a Corsair Vanguard 96 keyboard and hated the linear thocky switches. So, since I tend to be heavy handed while typing, I opted for the Pale Blue which were okay, but my wife missed the louder switches from my old keyboard. That's where the Jade clicky switches came in. Great sound, borderline too loud for me, but wife loves hearing me type away. I personally think the switches sounded fantastic with the stock PBT Double-Shot cape the keyboard came with, but I paired these switches with ThockKing's pudding keycaps and it definitely lets more high-pitched sound through. That's why I think they are borderline too loud, it is the pudding keycaps that make it even louder. My intention was to swap the springs out of the pale blue's and put them in the Jade's effectively making what should have been the true Navy switch, but I actually like the feedback and resistance of these Jade switches. I am definitely keeping these and highly doubt I will opt for another switch... well... maybe try the Midnight Jades.You know how it is. Just can't leave well enough alone.

A switch I cannot live without

At first I thought the box jade switch was too loud and I put it in a back up keyboard instead of my main keyboard. About two weeks later, I had to use that back up keyboard and I was amazed at how the switches felt. I have now put them back in my main keyboard, and do not plan to stop using them. They feel perfect. They are not too loud and to me they are the switch I will be using going forward.
