    Hi there, just wondering if anyone knows if and when the Razer orange mechanical switches will be available as an option on the Blackwidow X?

    I hope they are available eventually. I have a Blackwidow X and think it's a great keyboard, I love everything about it ... except the loud clicky keys. I am letting my son use it now, because I'm a die-hard stealth user. hehehe :)

    I'd seriously consider trading up my Blackwidow Chroma Stealth for a Blackwidow X Stealth if they ever made it. I have never once used the macro keys and I like the somewhat smaller profile.

    Been wondering this forever (or at least for a few months now). Various reviews online state that you can actually get it with Orange as it is - and even talk about upcoming MX Blue edition too.

    "The BlackWidow X Chroma is currently only being offered with Razer’s Orange or Green Switch, but Cherry MX variants are close in tow"     - PC Gamer

    For one I'll never get it for as long as it's full of click-clack sounds.

    A few of the mentioned reviews:
