In all, we genuinely like NZXT’s Avatar. It performed well, it’s comfortable to use, it looks great, and it has all the features gamers look for in a mouse. Left handed users now have a real alternative to Razer’s left handed...

As I'm sure you can see with my long winded write-up on the Avatars packaging, I was extremely impressed, if not suspicious. With everything about the Avatar looking suspiciously like a Razer product, I was expecting only but the best in performance...

NZXT brings a huge array of technology to PC gamers: they are probably best known for cases that fit consumer niches from the value segment, into some of the higher end levels as well. Today we take a look at a tangent venture made by the company to...

The NZXT Avatar gaming mouse proved to be just that both in comfort and performance. As mentioned during the course of the review being an ambidextrous mouse opens this product to a market of Southpaws. On many forums the fact that gaming mice are...

In sum, the NZXT Avatar is a solid mouse. It eschews a front-back rocker on the thumb side that could have allowed another configurable button in the place of the forward button on the right side. It has some awkwardly-placed buttons directly behind...

If I sound a little hard on the Avatar, it’s intended as constructive criticism for NZXT’s next product – there’s a lot here to like and I want the next one to be even better. The Avatar is simple to set up, simple to use,...

NZXT’s first attempt at making a gaming mouse is quite a success. The overall look, the features, the performance and the design rival those of the more popular mice sold on the market. Given its 2600dpi infrared sensor and low profile, the Avatar...
