Introduction
Founded in 1999, EVGA is a US-based computer hardware company. Despite being an MMO mouse, the X15 comes with several features you'd typically expect to find on an FPS mouse. One of those is true 8000 Hz polling, as already seen on the X17, which is further complemented by LK optical switches for the main buttons rated for 70 million clicks. Optical switches have the benefit of potentially very low latency yet no double-clicking due to wear and tear over time. PixArt's PMW3389 capable of 16,000 CPI is the sensor. For MMO purposes, the X15 has no less than 20 buttons, and by employing a dedicated shift button, a whopping 38 binds are available. Lastly, full RGB lighting is present and can be configured through EVGA Unleash.

Weight
My scale shows around 123 g (+/- 1 g), which is largely in line with the weight EVGA cites. The X15 definitely doesn't qualify as lightweight, though this is neither unexpected nor particularly worth criticizing for an MMO mouse. For comparison, the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite weighs 118 g and Redragon M913 Impact Elite 129 g, though the latter is wireless.
