Raven SST-RVM01B

Peripheral devices have become a sensitive subject for those who use them most. When I tested and recommended the Logitech G9 Gaming Mouse there were a few readers who wrote in just to tell me how much they disliked it; and yet the opposite was true when I cursed the Logitech G15 2007 LCD Gaming Keyboard. Well, I still dislike that lousy keyboard, but I can see how someone might have a few personal hang-ups with the G9.

So when SilverStone jumped into the peripheral market and showed Benchmark Reviews their SilverStone ESA Commander and SaberTooth Mouse back in January at the 2008 CES, I was a little concerned how well enthusiasts and gamers would embrace it. Apparently, SilverStone thought it would need a little tweaking, and SaberTooth would eventually be renamed into Raven, but other than a pointless name change the product has remained identical to what we witnessed many months back. Released just a few weeks ago, the Raven SST-RVM01B is changing the way gamers interact with their system.

The SilverStone SaberTooth Raven is best summarized as a 3200 dpi laser gaming mouse with eleven total buttons. Five custom profiles can save user-specified button mapping and laser sensitivity, and a dual-mode switch adjusts the Raven from mundane workstation pointing device into a comprehensive game mode mouse.

When SilverStone offered the Raven 3D gaming mouse for review, I felt compelled to pass it over just to avoid the controversy. But what if the SST-RVM01B was the next great thing? That's what Benchmark Reviews is about to find out.
