Keyboard Choice Help

When browsing on our site trying to find which keyboard is best for you, sometimes you may get confused! To help get rid of that confusion this is a tiny guide for when picking out what you want.


1. Layout Choice

Arguably the most important choice to make when purchasing a keyboard is what layout to get. The layouts we offer are:
WKL 60
Standard 60%
Ansi 60%
68 key 65%
67 key 65%
75%. 
TKL/80%
Below are layout diagrams.

2. Case Color

When picking which keyboard you want a huge part of it is the color as it changes the entire theme of the keyboard! Each keyboard has its own set of colors, but they typically include a Black, White and 1-2 specialty colors. if you need more help with the case colors you can email me  at xmcustomskeys@gmail.com

3. Switch Choice

The switch is arguably the most important part besides the layout as it changes the sound and feel of the board! When choosing your switch from our site you will have the choice of many different ones. They are categorized into 3 categories. Linear, Tactile and Clicky. Linear switches are switches with a smooth press throughout the whole switch, hence the name linear. Tactile switches are switches with a tactile bump in some area of the switch. Finally, Clicky switches are switches with a click sound when you press the switch, hence the name clicky. I will now list the switches available on this site into categories.
