Introduction

Established in 2006, ROCCAT is a peripherals company based in Germany. After the critically acclaimed Burst Pro, ROCCAT releases the Burst Core, essentially a budget version of the Pro. The Core retains the shape, lightweight construction, and optical main button switches which ensure low latency along with no double-clicking. Instead of the PMW3389, PixArt's PMW3331 capable of 8500 CPI is used. Furthermore, the Burst Core comes with a stiffer rubber cable in place of the soft, braided one the Pro is outfitted with. Additionally, regular black-dyed mouse feet are used, and RGB lighting only extends to the scroll wheel. As with the Pro, extensive configuration options are available through ROCCAT Swarm.

Aside from the mouse, one finds a quick start guide inside the rather compact box.
