Mechanical Keyboards like the Trigger command a price premium over their less durable membrane brothers. This cost is mitigated by increased lifespan and measurable increases in performance. The switch to a premium keyboard is a commitment to maximizing y...
For the gamers out there the Cooler Master Trigger maybe the first keyboard to really play the part. It has the looks of a real gaming keyboard and the feel of what we have come to expect from a good solid mechanical keyboard. Finally, the gamers out ...
After I fell in love with CM's QuickFire Pro, I was excited to give the Trigger a test, since, at $20 higher, it should be even better. In some cases, it is. It has macro support, so that's a major advantage, and it also has a comfortable palm rest. A...
I went into this review knowing the Trigger would be a cut above most keyboards on the market simply because of its full backlighting. Even then Cooler Master has to compete up against the very popular Black Widow from Razer. Because of that, every det...
Light system, Dedicated macro keys, Driver suite, Available with different key mechanisms from Cherry, Etched lettering, Rubber stands, USB 2.0 hub, Six key roll-over
Only Six key roll-over, Cable solution not ideal, High price, Takes up a lot of desk space
The CM Storm Trigger is a good keyboard, albeit some of the dispositions are a bit odd for a thoroughbred gaming keyboard. The lighting system with multiple modes is nice for gamers playing at home in the dark or at LAN parties. The fact that you can a...
Even though I've been using the QuickFire Pro for less than a week, I'm sold. If I were in the market for a mechanical keyboard with this feature-set, I'd pick it up without hesitation. There are competitors, of course, so sometimes your decision will...
Wellbuilt keyboard to endure the zombies, Green switches really add to the feel of any game, work, or email, Nice backlighting (despite my distaste for the red color), New life brought to the keyboard with the green switch type, CM Storm Trigger
Little loud if you aren't used to mechanicals, Heavier weight of the switch may make you weaklings tired for a week or so.
In conclusion, I really liked this keyboard. I loved it the first time I reviewed it, besides the red LEDs, and I think I love it even a little more with the green switches. Although the greens were a little different to get used to compared to the other ...

Quality, Functionality, Price, Size
Awkward keys combos, Uneven lighting, Lack of software disk
This is another top notch product brought to us by Cooler Master. Some of its minor issues may be annoying at times but the good things help you forget and rest assured there are a lot of good things about this keyboard. It boasts a strong durable physeek...
The Storm Trigger is a functional, albeit quirky peripheral that may look oversized and oddly configured and yet ultimately provides a great gaming experience. Granted, there are higher end keyboards out there and even less expensive ones that seem to ...
Full red backlighting, Full control over key programming, Comfortable as heck....
Loud – but easy to fix with Orings (extra cost), Awkward cable attachment....
Overall I'm quite impressed with the CM Trigger mechanical keyboard. I will be honest and say I couldn't really handle the clickly clacky noise after a week and promptly bought some O-rings to quiet it down. This is something any of you who can't stan...
