Cooler Master Octane M35 and MB7C review

Rating: 7.5.

Being a gamer is not necessarily cheap. If you want to do it on a console, it is going to cost you a few hundred on the latest system and then at least another triple digit figure to get all the controllers, games and accessories. While gaming PCs are a lot more bang for buck these days, their peripherals can cost even more, with some gaming mice and keyboards setting you back over £100 each. Not so in the case of the Octane set from Cooler Master which hopes to make gaming peripherals affordable for everyone.

But as always, the question is, does a price drop mean the quality suffers?
