love qk boards :D

All of these switches are extremely clacky and honestly sound a little harsh (too clacky??) to me. The factory lube is quite good, but I feel like all three of my batches were slightly overlubed, and there is some resistance when pressing down on the keys. This may be why people say that the hyacinths feel heavier than what their spring weight (52g) advertises. Overall, all three of these switches are solid choices if you want a loud sounding stock switch that is ready to go out of the box.
