Cooler Master Spawn Gaming Mouse Review



Cooler Master has proudly introduced the Spawn gaming mouse.
This may not be the first mouse to cater almost exclusively to the tiger claw niche, but it is one of the first to include a bevy of really good gaming features such as on the fly DPI change (with a 3500 DPI laser sensor), 32KB on-board memory for heavy duty custom macros, 7 buttons with 5 million OMRON switches; and even a rubberized no slip exterior so it never moves unless you want it to move!

Add in the fact that it looks like finger grip users will also find this a comfortable mouse (as many tiger claw mice do work well for finger gripers, even if the opposite is rarely true) and it sounds like CM has a real cult classic in the making on their hands.
If you are interested, you can purchase the Cooler Master Spawn for around $50 each.
