What notes are in C♯5?

C♯5, C♯ power chord, is C♯ and G♯: the root (C♯) and the perfect fifth (G♯). Its formula is 1 5.

Is C♯5 major or minor?

Neither. C♯5 is C♯ and G♯, with no third, which is why it works under major and minor songs alike and stays clear with distortion.

Can I play C♯5 instead of D♭ or C♯m?

In rock, yes: power chords stand in for both.
