CM Storm Xornet Optical Gaming Mouse

Excellent functionality for a value-priced mouse, Omron micro-switches guaranteed for 5,000,000 clicks, 2000 DPI / 2600 FPS optical sensor, 1000 Hz / 1.0 ms USB 2.0 polling rate, Teflon feet glide effortlessly over gaming surfaces

No macro software or keybind instructions

Not everyone expects a mouse to deliver everything including the kitchen sink, but it's nice to know Cooler Master has touched on the most important functions with their CM Storm Xornet mouse. This gaming mouse performs exceptionally well, and aside...

Cooler Master Storm Xornet Gaming Mouse Review

There are plenty of input devices in the market that are supposedly aimed for the budget conscious and designed to be a “no-frills” gaming mouse. Every manufacturer's definition of what features a basic or entry level gaming mouse should have, however,...

Lightweight and easy to move ; Ergonomic and comfortable shape for claw grip users ; Long-life Omron switches ; Ferrite choke on USB cable ; Jitter-free on all DPI settings ; Good tracking performance on cloth or textured surfaces ; On-the fly...

No strain-relief protection at the base of the cable ; Positive acceleration and ~4.8mm lift-off distance ; Side button location would be better moved a few millimeters back

Cooler Master did a good job, once again, with creating another claw-grip mouse. The CM Storm Xornet is essentially a stripped-down version of the CM Storm Spawn but is not in any way an afterthought. Cooler Master kept the long-life Omron micro...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

A lot better than the first generation Xornet

Overall the mouse works perfect and for the squeaking part it only happens if you are pressing on the higher spot but if you are to press on the lower part you wont be getting it. Also like to add in that the mouse can be macro'd for other purposes...

- easy to set up - very nice illumination - perfect for people that prefer's claw mice - affordable

- Left mouse button squeaks a bit

Well designed mouse with very iffy internals.

Note: had issues on both 1.02 and 1.03 firmware, no fix. I was hoping to replace my dead Spawn with a new/better version of the same mouse, but apparently you get what you pay for. Doubt its even worth returning for how cheap it was. Shame too, its a...

-very comfortable -good price -great sensor

-meh software -middle mouse click died after 90 days -random cutouts and control issues

Good mouse with out all the extra buttons

I wanted a nice basic mouse but not bottom barrel and this fits the bill. If you want a gaming mouse with a lot of buttons get a second mouse for that like I did.

-smooth and fits my medium to large size hand well -dpi adjustment -not a whole lot of buttons

-not wireless -not a whole lot of buttons
