G3MS Moonstone Switches
Crafted by the skilled engineers at Blackrock Foundry, G3MS Switches reflect years of expertise, continuously pushing the boundaries of what switches can achieve…
The G3MS Moonstone Switches are the next step in the evolution of the G3MS Sapphire switches that accompanied our last lineup. After two years of carefully analyzing your feedback, we've worked with Blackrock Foundry to design the switches you requested.

Fully transparent housing? Done.
Longer Spring? You got it.
Faster return rate? Absolutely.

We’ve listened to every review, addressed every request, and worked together to design a switch that surpasses what the G3MS Sapphire could ever be.
Actuation force - 50 g
Actuation Point – 2mm
Durability - 80 Million Keystrokes



Hot-Swappable
Hot-Swap technology allows users to replace the switches (with ANY other 3-Pin & 5-Pin mechanical switches available on the market) without disassembling the keyboard. There's no need for a desoldering iron anymore. Having easily replaceable switches increases its maintainability and allows the user to customize the keyboard fully.


PBT keycaps and Double-Shot technology
Profile - CSA. The unique CSA profile has a rounded shape and softly slanted sides. This provides a more natural typing experience and reduces finger fatigue, allowing the fingers to rest in a relaxed position.
Keycap Material - PBT (polybutylene terephthalate). PBT plastic is highly resistant to chemicals (including your sweaty fingers). Because of this, it is far more durable and abrasion-resistant than the ABS plastic that is commonly found in most modern gaming keyboards.
Manufacturing technology - Double-Shot (double casting). The keycap consists of 2 separate plastic molds. Under high temperatures and pressure, these plastic molds are combined. Using this method ensures that the symbols on the keycaps will never be erased, even after long and intensive use.


Effortless backlight control - Software and Hotkeys
This Keyboard features a full RGB backlight with a wide range of customizable effects. In addition, the user can choose from an array of 16.7 million colors to set the perfect ambiance. Our Web-Based software allows you to customize your keyboard on the go. On any computer, on any operating system.


Gasket Mount & Dual-layer Noise Insulation
The Keyboard Case consists of three main components: the top and bottom covers (housing), the main supporting structure (chassis plate), and the printed circuit board (PCB). Two layers of Poron foam are positioned between the PCB and the chassis plate, as well as between the chassis plate and the bottom cover of the housing. Additionally, the box includes two layers of silicone, giving you the option to replace the Poron foam with silicone if you wish to change the acoustics of your keyboard!


Factory Lubed stabilizers
The stabilizers are greased during the keyboard's assembly process on the conveyor system. The lubing consistency is unparalleled because they are greased by machines instead of people. Greased stabilizers provide a smooth, pleasant feeling when pressed. Thanks to this process, they remain tactilely pleasant and produce a pleasant sound long after they depart from the factory.
