Frequently Asked Questions on Mechanical Keyboards for Gaming

Why is a mechanical keyboard better for gaming?

A mechanical keyboard is better because it gives faster key response, more consistent feel, and better durability. The switches register your presses quicker and last longer than normal keyboards. Many also support customization, like remapping and macros, which are useful during games.

What is the best switch for gaming?

The best switch depends on your playstyle. Linear switches are smooth and fast, great for FPS games. Tactile switches give feedback and are better for RPGs or typing. With hot-swappable boards, you can easily test and choose the one that feels best for you.

Is wireless okay for gaming?

Yes, especially with 2.4 GHz wireless. It has low input lag and high polling rate, which gives you fast response time. This is almost the same as wired, and it works well for competitive play.

Do I need macro support?

If you play complex games or use many shortcuts, yes. Macros help you perform a series of actions with one key. It saves time and reduces mistakes, especially in fast-paced games.

Are Keychron gaming keyboards customizable?
