00:00:07,759 --> 00:00:15,759
Today I have the CM Storm Spawn to unbox. This is Arming the Gaming

2
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:20,240
Revolution. It is a 3500 DPI precision optical gaming mouse with onboard

3
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:24,240
Sentinel X 32 kilob. So that is memory on board with a claw style ergonomic

4
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:27,519
design, superior rubberized anti-slip grip design, which is good for a claw

5
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:34,559
grip. And let's see what else they have to say for themselves. So, you can adjust it between 800,800 and 3500 DPI.

6
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:40,000
It takes 60 images per second. It supports up to 20 gs of

7
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:44,879
acceleration. Okay. What else? Maximum 1,000 Hz, which is the max USB transfer

8
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:49,480
rate. Okay. Seven programmable. Oh, seven fully programmable buttons. Very

9
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:55,199
nice. Omron 5 million click micro switches. Ultra Swift Teflon feet. A 2 m

10
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,920
goldplated USB cable. Let's see what else they got to say for themselves in

11
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:04,600
here. strength, security, and control. Fascinating. Okay. Anti-drift control.

12
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:08,240
So, what's that mean? What's anti-drift? Uh, the Spawn game mouse

13
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:13,040
utilizes a high performance optical engine, and ensures extreme stability. Built with an anti-drift architecture,

14
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:16,000
provides lossless performance under mouse lift and drop with a built-in

15
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,040
angle snapping option, one can formulate the perfect flick shot, and maximize

16
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,280
their kill rates. Highly adaptive under all speeds, the Spawn endures all

17
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:26,320
tactical movements. Okay, let's open this baby

18
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:31,920
up. Oh, give me a sec here, guys. Okay, I

19
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:36,400
had to break those seals. And let's take out the mouse itself. So, the first

20
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:43,079
thing I notice about this particular mouse is that it is an ergonomic style

21
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:46,240
mouse. So, what that means is

22
00:01:43,079 --> 00:01:47,759
that it will only really fit in the

23
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:52,040
right hand. If you try to use this with your left hand, it is not going to work

24
00:01:50,479 --> 00:01:57,040
very well at all because the positioning will be all

25
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:02,560
wrong. However, if you use it in your right hand, this is going to fit like a

26
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:06,560
glove. You can see actually I would say right off the bat that this would be

27
00:02:04,159 --> 00:02:09,840
best for someone with smaller hands like myself because you can see that fits

28
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:13,280
very comfortably. Whereas, if I had larger hands, I don't know that it would

29
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:18,080
work quite as well. Mind you, if you're using a fingertip grip or a claw style

30
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:21,280
grip, then a smaller mouse can be preferred, especially if you have these

31
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:26,080
rubberized grips on the side, which allow you to manipulate the mouse even

32
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:29,200
if you are not palming it like someone like me would. However, if you do have a

33
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,680
small hand, you will be able to palm this mouse quite comfortably. So, let's

34
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:37,040
show you guys the positioning of the buttons. So, here there are no buttons.

35
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:41,120
Here, there's a nice contour for your ring finger. Here you've got your right

36
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:46,400
click, your left click, your middle click, your scroll wheel, your DPI up

37
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:50,319
and down. You've got your forward and back buttons here on the side, and

38
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,000
another rubberized grip here. The overall look of the mouse is very, very

39
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,680
sharp. This is a nice metallic red. I hope you can make out the the finish of

40
00:02:56,239 --> 00:03:02,319
that color right there. It looks really, really good. And then on the bottom, you

41
00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:08,319
can see here we've got the 3500 DPI Storm Tactical sensor here, as well as a

42
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:14,040
Teflon foot at the top and a Teflon foot at the bottom. The mouse cord itself is

43
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:17,840
not braided, but it is a very um flexible feeling cord, so it

44
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:22,720
shouldn't get in your way when you're gaming. And you've got a goldplated USB

45
00:03:20,959 --> 00:03:26,879
connector right here, including gold-plated contacts on the inside. So,

46
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:30,879
that should ensure that you don't lose your connection very easily, uh, and

47
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:35,040
that it doesn't wear out as easily as mice without goldplated

48
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:41,760
connectors. So, thank you for checking out my unboxing of the Storm Tactics CM

49
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:44,000

50
