When Cooler Master contacted us a few weeks ago and asked us if we'd like to take their new gaming mouse for a spin, I was a little taken back. Here, CM, already with a slew of chassis', cooling products, power supplies, notebook products and more, now have a gaming mouse? Well, despite it being their first such product (as far as I'm aware), it's actually quite good.
A few months ago, Cooler Master unveiled a new brand: CM Storm. Essentially, if you have a CM Storm gaming product, it's considered that, and not a Cooler Master product. The reasoning behind this comes down to marketing. With the company's CM Storm chassis' already on the market, the Scout and Sniper, and now this mouse, it's obvious who their main focus is: hardcore gamers.
Bill took a look at both of those chassis', and it became clear quick that they were targeted at gamers, and that gamers would be thrilled to own one. After all, Cooler Master went through the effort to implement LAN-party-specific features, such as a keyboard and mouse lock. So, they're not just targeting gamers, but they seem to be doing their homework as well. Oh, and for what it's worth, I have been using a CM Storm Sniper for the past few months and love it.
But okay... Cooler Master already knows how to create quality chassis'... we know this. But a gaming mouse is an entirely different ballgame. So is it be possible that the company could actually have their very-first gaming mouse win over gamers? From my experience with it so far, I'd have to say that yes, they certainly should attract some attention with this one.
