What's up with the MX Silver switches? Are they Grays and if yes, which ones, tactile or linear?

marcelnAlso known as MX Speed, they were exclusive to corsair, maybe that's up now. Here's some info on them:
"The new switch from Cherry has a silver stem with similar properties to an MX Red. They’re both linear (no click or tactile bump) and the actuation force is a very light 45g. The main difference is that MX Silver switches have an actuation point at just 1.2mm rather than 2mm like other Cherry switches. This makes it faster to trigger a key; 40% faster according to Cherry"

tyerkerHere's a snippet on them:
"The Nature White switch uses the same 55-cN actuation force as Cherry's brown switches, without those clickers' tactile bump. "
So a linear brown basically. Ducky apparently had exclusivity on them, that must be up now too.
