8.9The NZXT Avatar is a great entry into the gaming mouse market. It delivers all the features we are used to from such input devices at this price point. The Avatar offers programmable buttons, which can be assigned with lengthy macros as well. The DPI setting can be adjusted all the way up to 2600 DPI with or without the software. All other functions and tweaking is done through the very solid and fully featured configuration application.
NZXT has also gone all out on the build quality, which is comparable to the likes of Razer, Logitech and Microsoft. If the mouse has one downside, it would be the large side buttons, but besides that the feel and handling of the Avatar is great, along with the well balanced weight and smooth Teflon feet.
