2 out of 5 eggs Would be OK, if it didn't completely brick my PC. 06/14/2014

This review is from: RAZER Abyssus RZ01-00360100-R3U1 Wired Optical High Precision Gaming Mouse - Black

Pros:

Simple, no frills.
Small and light - Good for my fingertip grip.
Good sensor

Cons:

Drivers caused my PC to BSOD!
Stiff buttons
Overpriced for the features.
Software is under featured and buggy.
Cheap build

Overall Review:

I switched the mouse from 125 to 1000hz polling rate with the switch on the underside of the mouse. It caused a BSOD, and my windows DID NOT BOOT BACK UP. I removed the mouse, still failed. Safe mode didn't work. When I tried to back up from the restore point that windows created when I installed the drivers, it said I was missing some .dlls in system32, and could not restore. In the end, I had to restore from a BACKUP that was a year old in the end.

They claim "hyper responsive clicks". Bull, the buttons are as stiff as anything, and are very unenjoyable to use.

I am not the first person to get a BSOD from this mouse and its drivers, so please, avoid this mouse. There are much better mice around the same pricepoint.

Build quality is unimpressive, it feels cheaper than it is.
