CM Storm Havoc Mouse and Control-RX Surface Review

Up Close

We’ll start with the enormous Control-RX surface. 17 inches wide by 13 inches high, only the most gigantic of desks need apply. It’s great to see a plain top though. So often manufacturers cannot resist the urge to splash some image or other on so vast a space. We like the subtle logo placement on an otherwise plain expanse of black. 

The top is designed to work with all types of mice and all variants of sensors. Naturally one this large is tailored for the low-DPI people. Realistically at the DPI available from the Havok you could get away with something an inch bigger than your mouse, even on a triple screen setup. It’s very thick though, 5mm, so your wrist will be nicely cushioned throughout your use.

The Havoc itself comes in the regulation CM Storm packaging with a clear, bold design that puts all the specifications within easy reading, and just has enough of the black, white and red iconography that’s the CM Storm trademark.
