Cooler Master CM310 Mouse and MP860 RGB MousePad

With the continued demand for RGB components and peripherals there doesn't seem to be any end to what manufacturers will ‘RGB'. With both keyboards and mice sporting synchronisable lighting the next logical accessory to receive this treatment would be your mousepad. Cooler Masters new MP860 incorporates fully customizable lighting and synchronisation available with other Cooler Master portal supported products. Priced at £79.99 it also features both cloth and aluminium reversible surfaces, but does the addition of RGB lighting justify this premium price?

Alongside the MP860, the CM310 mouse also deserves a look. Designed with the budget gamer in mind it also features RGB lighting with 5 modes to choose from. Currently priced around £29.99 is it the best mouse to get you started?

It's a shame that it is not software supported but with a £29.99 price point, this is easily forgiven. The Masteraccessory MP860 is not a must-have mousepad, but for gamers looking for a high-quality pad with the flexibility of either cloth or aluminium surfaces, and customizable RGB lighting to match their setup, it's worth a look.
