Cooler Master CM310

Premier pointing without the wallet pounding.

THERE’S A FUNNY THING about reviewing hardware: Sometimes you have to look at a device not as it is, but as it would be if it wasn’t. Particularly when scrutinizing something that seems to put a lot of focus on its outward appearance, you need to imagine that thing without those features that make it what it is. Cooler Master’s mouse definitely falls into that bracket, which is very handy, given the number of words we’ve dedicated to prattling on about such a nebulous concept. The CM310 is an utterly gorgeous ambidextrous feast of RGB lighting—but what would it be without the fireworks?
