Ok here is proof



Someone asked if my computer glowed. Well, yeah, I guess those two little lights count.

And nobody noticed this epique config misses mouse? C'mon, Mason, what's it? R.A.T. 7/9, Xai/Ikari or maybe one of those Roccat things?

Got one. It's a piece of disappointment. Software is completely alien-made. Imagine, you can't even directly appoint keyboard key to mouse button, only as a macro. Only one key profile can be stored in mouse itself, all others - in software (don't work in Crysis lawl) Scroll button requires 5kg push while left and right clicks under a feather-weight pressure. So now it 70$ piece of alluminium and plastic colelcting dust on a shelf, while I'm using my 4-years old mouse...

Just read corsair support forum about this mouse and imagine this disaster...

I don't use mouse macros or shortcuts personally, so I'm eyeing it for the sniper button that I would use in FPS titles. And other than software every review I've read has said the hardware is great so.... yeah. I have a keyboard for keyboard buttons.

R.A.T.s have sniper button too + fully customizable body + normal soft + a lot of hardware profiles. Price is the same. Only reason I've bought Corsair was high and heavy body. But it's still worse than classic MS explorer3 shape for me Guess it will be perfect for "clutch grip".

Woo hoo for pics, nice lookin rig Mason. Now lift up its skirt and let us take peek inside.

[Mason Grimm]

This is my mouse... not fancy but it works for me

[Catamount]

Is that an MX-518? Those were good mice; they still are

[Mason Grimm]

That is exactly what it is... I still use it and love it!!! It's probably the best mouse I've owned.

[Iron Harlequin]

I use the 5600 DPI version of this

[Mason Grimm]

I was wrong. Apparently the fans in the front glow when I push what I thought was the reset button. They light up LOL

Must.... resist... fanboy urge... to rant....
ahem... Oh yeah Mason, are you using an aftermarket heatsink or the stock one?

[Mason Grimm]

The stock one. I don't overclock.

You didn't get a cheap one to be quieter? lol.
Overclocking isn't the only reason to have an aftermarket cooler after all. And running cooler is always better.

I don't mind the noise. It helps me sleep at night
