Gateron Optical Switches – The fastest Switches for gaming!
Optical switches are much more durable than conventional mechanical keyboard switches and are rated for 100 million keystrokes.
They have a high actuation point of 1.5mm for fast response. Light Strike optical switches utilize a horizontal infrared beam which is transmitted across the width of the inner keyswitch.
The infrared beam is normally blocked from reaching a sensor across from it by the stem. Once a switch is pressed, the switch stem no longer blocks the infrared beam and the beam is detected by the sensor, which activates the switch.
Due to the optical mechanism, an optical switch has an extremely fast response time of 0.2ms, which means faster reactions in those times where timing is critical, such as when gaming.

Es lo mejor tiene su sonido muy bueno lo RGB todo es PERFECTO
My grandson is over the moon and absolutely loves the keyboard.
The item was exactly as listed and arrived quickly, thanks to the seller for a quick and easy delivery.
I updated the software of the keyboard and as a result my keyboard no longer worked. Support didn’t offer any way to fix it other than replacement.
After lubing the switches, changing the key caps and stabilizers, and filling the inside with foam, this keyboard sounds and feels great. Perfect for anyone looking for a beginner keyboard to mod.
As a stock keyboard, it’s nothing special. Gets the job done. Stock stabilizers are sub par and without lubing the switches it feels like any other mechanical linear switch (a little scratchy but good feel otherwise). The hollow case will amplify the spring sound of your switches so without filling it with foam and lubing your switches it will be audible.
bought this awhile back and have since put custom key caps on it, i love it, good for its price.
Ottima tastiera, design accattivante ma molto alta, in caso abbiate postura piu alta rispetto al piano di appoggio (altezza gomiti > scrivania) niente da dire ma se come me siete allo stesso livello o inferiore avrete bisogno di un poggiapolsi.
Risposta tasti ottima latenza pari a 0 , pressione e sound tasti spettacolari.
Altre 2 pecche: tasto shift progettato male, essendo il tasto pi grosso degli altri la pressione a volte non viene rilevata dallo switch per via della collocazione di quest’ultimo; altro problema, posizione dei tasti FN scomoda
Some good things on the GK61. Hot-swappable switches gives you a the chance to upgrade. the typing experience which is smooth and satisfying, the sound of the keys are a little clicky and thoccy ( Gateron mechanical yellows), the color of the keyboard is very accurate to the listing image’s and the rgb is very vibrant and has a lot of customizability with the app.
Overall the GK61 is worth the 69.99 price tag due to the pleasing experience I’ve had so far with typing and performance in long gaming sessions.
for 50 bucks is great and i love the blue switches
I like everything about it. Nothing to complain about I love that it’s very customizable and easy to do so. Also the lighting is nice. Good 60% keyboard
La petite voulu s’offrir ce clavier, elle est quelque peu due car il est en QWERTY, mme si les touches peuvent tre dplacs, les symboles, accent et divers ne sont pas prsent sur le clavier.
Sinon pour le reste, la qualit est correcte, le clavier est trs… Bruyant, je dteste a. M’enfin, elle est trs satisfait de son clavier.
This keyboard is great! This it the best mechanical keyboard for anyone whose starting out. A good beginner. Def recommend
Arrived quickly less than 24 hours. Really enjoyed the typing experience, the button still works as an A key but ‘a’ key cap is missing there’s also no replacement keys.
Would be great if I could get the key sent out.
I love this clacky clacky keyboard , the lighting options are really easy to set up the app is really easy to use and the macros are really simple to set up. It’s very very inexpensive for what it is it’s very well built and I love the feel of it!
I am really into gaming and this was an amazing add to my setup!!!! There is nothing to worry about this keyboard, anyone can use it.
The only thing for me is that the keys are pretty sensitive and will press down with a very small amount of pressure, but it’s nice to have that compared to keys not registering.
This keyboard has made me want to EXCLUSIVELY use Gateron Silent Brown switches. Its astonishing how quiet they are and still feel so tactile. The keyboard was just quiet enough out the box to bring to the office. Its a joy to type on and fully utilize my desk space with the 60% layout. All I need to do now to make it just 10% better is lube and band-aid mod. Spacebar sounds a little too loud in comparison to everything else and it would feel more consistent if this was done out the box. Still, doesn’t take away from how good this keyboard is.
I was very excited to receive this extremely popular keyboard. My favorite feature is its clickyness due to the blue switches I chose and I had a lot of fun customizing it and experiencing the all the intricacies that make a keyboard work. For the money, its an extremely fun product.
Excellent for the price, better than expected and so cute! I’m definitely happy with their keyboard and I will be using it all the time. It was nice of them to include a keycap puller as well since I was planning on doing some customization!
Currently writing this on my GK61 with silver switches which I have used for about a month now, the keeb is great, mine came pre lubed and sounds alright stock. The main issue I have is the tacky software, which feels like a very unexperienced person put up in 10 minutes. Its extremly buggy, and I found it was difficult to manuever. Other than that, the layout may be difficult to adapt to, as it uses an American ISO Layout.
Bought for our Grandson for his Birthday he’s really happy he says it’s really fast , Brilliant for gaming, and he loves the colour ( bought the Red )and the way it lights up it looks really expensive, great quality for the price fast delivery Thank You !!!

Only had it for a short while.build quality seems good the only gripe I have is that the GK6Xplus dosen’t work with the US model
I had no issue with setting it up. I also had no issue with the key cap swapping.
Me and my husband got these for gaming and because we want to be able to customize a keyboard.
Keyboard was amazing! Was trying out a pre-built to see how it was (after not using a pre-built for a good few years), and the gk61 was surprisingly good! 100% reccomened to anyone who wants to try out pre-builds or just anyone who is looking for the best keyboard apart from a few, and the price for this keyboard i’d personally say is way under!
