==Introduction==
The '''CM Storm QuickFire TK''' is a [[Backlit keyboard|backlit]], compact size keyboard with integrated [[numeric keypad]] ("'''t'''en-'''k'''ey"). It is produced by [[Cooler Master]]'s peripheral division [[Cooler Master#CM Storm|CM Storm]] and is a part of their "QuickFire" line of mechanical keyboards.

There is a [[Legend#Side-printing|side-printed]] variant called the CM Storm QuickFire TK Stealth.

==Description==
The '''CM Storm QuickFire TK''' overlays inverse-T [[cursor keys]] with a [[numeric keypad]] that can be swapped with a press of a button.

It has [[NKRO|''n''-key rollover]] over USB through the use of a scheme that is known to not work with MacOS X.

It is rumoured to have been based on the [[Plum 96]]. That keyboard has a similar but not exact layout, and a similar scheme for achieving ''n''-key rollover. 



==Features==
The bottom surface has three channels for cable management (back, left and right). 

The '''CM Storm QuickFire TK''' comes standard with a braided, detachable, USB-to-mini-USB cable (1.8 m / 71 inches long) with gold-plated connectors. The polling rate is 1000 Hz / 1 ms. The bottom has rear rubberized standoffs and four rubber feet.

The keycaps are made of black [[ABS]] plastic which are "grip" and UV coated, and with a futuristic font used for the keycaps' legends. The backlight is regulated/accessed via the <code>Fn</code>+<code>F1</code> through <code>F4</code> keys. To turn the backlight ON or OFF use <code>Fn</code>+<code>F1</code>.

The basic media keys (volume-up, down, mute, play/pause, forward, back and media stop), are activated as secondary funtions (<code>Fn</code>) on the top row (<code>F5</code> to <code>F11</code>).

For gamers, the TK has a [[Windows key#Windows Lock key|<code>Win</code> disable/lock key]] (<code>Fn</code>+<code>F12</code>). This "lock" prevents accidental activation of the [[Windows_key|<code>Win</code> key]] when gaming (which would take you out to the Windows menu in the middle of a game).
