HyperX Alloy Origins Key Switch Replacement
Introduction
This is a guide on how to replace the mechanical key switches for the HyperX Alloy Origins Mechanical Keyboard. They stock key switches on the HyperX Alloy Origins are custom HyperX switches, however they can be replaced with any number of similar MX key switches. This may be a quite difficult task for some people as it requires the use of a soldering iron. However, a new key switch may be able to save a previously broken keyboard.
Before you begin, ensure that the key you want to replace is entirely broken before resorting to such drastic measures. Unplug and reconnect the keyboard, reset the keyboard through the NGENUITY software, and ensure that nothing is preventing the key from being pressed. If none of these methods are working. Proceed with the switch removal by unpluging the keyboard and bringing it to a well lit area and ground yourself before you begin.
