Mionix Naos 5000 Gaming mouse - Bjorn3D.com

Though most people believe that any generic power supply will do for their computer, this is not generally true. Strong systems require a lot of power, and this is where the InWin Commander comes into play. It is a well designed power supply, and its...

The Mionix Naos 5000 is one of the best gaming mice we have tested so far. It is very confortable and works well on all sorts of surfaces. We are proud to award it the Bjorn3D Golden Bear Award.

Mionix Naos 5000 USB Gaming Laser Mouse

Gamers want the best system they can get their hands on. This means a blazing fast CPU, dual video cards, and good ram. However, all this is potentially useless if you pair this system with an unreliable mouse. Mionix aims to prevent this problem by...

Mionix Naos 5000 Gaming Mouse

Mionix is a relatively new company in the gaming peripherals market, at least compared to other more established companies like Razer, Steelseries and the like. Nonetheless, Mionix has turned quite a few heads with their initial product releases such...

Outstanding tracking performance, customization to your hearts desire, ergonomic design, most features can be used without software

High price, right-hand only design

So with all of the features, performance and customization you could ever ask for – why does it not get the highest rating and an Editors Choice award? Due to the one and only one drawback (and it’s a big one) – price. The Naos goes for about $95 USD...

Mionix Naos 5000

Mionix is another fine company that shows its face here at Overclockers Online. Sporting their latest gaming mouse, the Naos 5000 is engineered with superior ergonomics, adjustable weights, numerous programming buttons, and sharp laser precision.

Fully programmable ; Top-notch tracking capabilities ; Comfortable design

Not left-hand-friendly ; Expensive ; Software not included

I plugged in the Naos 5000, loaded up the software, and fired up a few games. I played through all of Assassin’s Creed 2 and Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Advanced War Fighter with it, and I have to say, it never let me down once. The mouse was accurate...

Gaming mice have been a growing industry as the demands of gamers have been on the rise. Gamers need more DPI, faster polling rates and the likes, in order to keep up with the fast pace of the new and upcoming generation of games. I myself, having...
