Hi all, I have a quick and possibly very simple question. I have a keychron V6 with red switches being delivered to me tomorrow. I just want to know what switches and keycaps will fit this keyboard? This is my very first mechanical/swappable keyboard and I know nothing about it. I want to try other switches, mainly brown, blue and yellow. Also want to have a different look keycaps every now and then. I've searched on their site, but I had no idea which ones to choose. lol Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much. I'm very excited for the keyboard. I've already watched a ton of videos on modding and changing switches etc. I'll definitely be modding it to make it sound the best it can. As for switches, I've already tried the red ones (linear) and they felt too mushy for me. Also tried brown and I liked them more. Couldn't find blue ones, but I'm honestly thinking of just buying a set of tactile and another of clicky and use the one I like and keep the other one for another keyboard (I'll be getting another keyboard in the near future when I build a PC for me son). Also, I'll be purchasing a tester soon. :)
