ROCCAT Burst Pro Air

The ROCCAT Burst Pro Air is a great mouse for FPS gaming. It's fairly lightweight, feels well-built, and is comfortable to use. The companion software offers a high degree of customization, so you adjust the sensor settings and set your CPI precisely in steps of 50 in a very wide range. Also, the feet and cable don't cause drag on mousepads and desks. While its click latency is very good, it isn't as low as other FPS-oriented options.
