    The Esc key has decided to stop functioning on my keyboard so looks like I need to replace it.

    Any idea where I can get Cherry MX Brown RGB switches from? The keyboard is a ROG Claymore, for reference.

    EDIT: is the LED part of the switch?

    It doesn't have to be Cherry. You can use Kalih, or Kailh? gawd knows.

    Some have the LED pressed into the switch and some don't. Pop off the cap and take a look.

    It's not hard. I replaced the space bar key on my Kailh with a Cherry (they were blue, though).
