The controls...
Now that we've covered everything about the mouse and it's casing, we're going to move on to the driver. The driver supplied on the disc doesn't work with Windows 7 so I had some trouble getting the mouse to work at first, but once I'd downloaded the latest driver, we were rocking and rolling.The first thing that strikes you is the colour scheme of the driver, all blue and black, just like the box, lovely! Once you've got the driver opened up and all running, you'll notice you have a huge amount of customization, ranging from sensitivity to polling rate; there really is no end to the customization.
Here we get all the main controls, this is where you can assign macros to certain buttons on the mouse, or set buttons to do specific tasks. You can also change the mousewheel scroll speed and the sensitivity of the mouse. There's also the option to disable certain DPI options on the mouse, saving you precious time in a game flicking through DPI options that you don't want or need.
Here is where we control the colour of the mouse, and all the effects that come with that colour. There's 38 colours to choose from for each LED inside the mouse, meaning there's over 79Million combinations of colour on this mouse, there's also an option to just select a random colour for the mouse to display. The colours aren't very accurate though, some of the colours just aren't what you picked and end up being a totally different shade. The effects you can add are also really nice, especially the pulsating one, where it quickly fades on and off.
Here are the advanced settings, a number of variables suited for the pro gamer, which not being the former, I left well alone! Such as Y-Axis and X-Axis sensitivity, Mouse Acceleration and Polling Rate, this is also where you calibrate the TCU to get the most out of your mouse.
And now, finally, I've finished my review, so now there's just one last thing to do, and that's to bring the whole thing to a conclusion. This mouse is brilliant, by far the best mouse I've ever used and one of the best looking mice I've ever seen as well, the functionality and comfort of this mouse is amazing and the build quality seems very good too. The driver is also amazing, it works perfectly, even after constantly changing all the settings and colours, the driver still stayed solid, it's also all very well laid out and easy to understand.
All in all, I'm gonna give this mouse a 10/10 because it's amazing, it just works, and very very well at that.
Definitely getting a double thumbs up from me!
