This flexibility extends to keycaps, switches, custom weights, switch plates, and cables, allowing a fully personalized setup.
Tech enthusiasts will appreciate the CSTM65’s advanced features like the gasket-mounted design, ABS keycaps optimized for south-facing switches, PCBA-mounted stabilizers, and 5-pin switch support. The keyboard also boasts dynamic LED lighting and a customizable weight system, complemented by five switch plate options. Users can choose between the tactile Gateron Brown Pro 3.0 or linear Gateron Yellow KS3 switches, ensuring a tailored typing experience.
The CSTM65 is available for preorder on the Drop website, with barebones configurations starting at $79 (here) and fully assembled setups at $129 (here).
