Remember that nostalgic, see-through tech that was everywhere at the start of the new millennium? It’s back—on a mechanical keyboard built for the future. Meet the Drop CSTM80 Atomic Purple Keyboard. Outfitted with Drop’s throwback, transparent-purple Keysterine Keycap Set and matching Keysterine CSTM80 Case Kit, this desktop centerpiece has Y2K typed all over it.

Q: What kind of switches does this keyboard use?
A: The Drop CSTM80 keyboard uses Gateron Yellow KS3 switches.
Q: Does this keyboard have N-key rollover?
A: Yes, the keyboard features N-key rollover, ensuring every keystroke is registered.
Q: Does this keyboard have a number pad?
A: No, the Drop CSTM80 has a tenkeyless layout, meaning it does not have a number pad.
Q: What is the maximum number of memory profiles this keyboard supports?
A: The keyboard can store up to 5 memory profiles.
Q: What type of connection does this keyboard have?
A: This is a wired keyboard that connects via USB-C.
Q: How many keys on this keyboard are programmable?
A: All 88 keys on the CSTM80 keyboard are programmable.
A: I actually tried this out with some old keycaps that I have. With the LEDs below (facing the front) they do not illuminate the back side of the keycaps. So depending on where the shine through is, the position of the LEDs might matter. I don’t know if one orientation is considered more “normal” than another, since I’ve seen both keyboards and keycaps designed for front-facing LEDs or LEDs behind the switches. But definitely look for keycaps that are designed to work with LEDs in front of the switches.
Q: Is this keyboard hot swappable?
A: Yes
