The MX has a standard polling rate similar to any mouse, it's not meant to be a gamer's mouse. I've had a few, including the Anywhere MX. It was a good mouse for what it's meant to do, but at this point it sits in a box collecting dust.
Don't forget to check polling rate as well as DPI. There's no reason to buy a gaming mouse that doesn't have a high DPI as well as a 1 kHz polling rate. If anything I'd say polling-rate is more important than DPI because high DPI doesn't necessarily equate to more accurate. It simply means how fast you can turn. That can be handy but if you don't have very steady hands then a really high DPI isn't going to help you. A very high polling rate, however, will. The reason being that one has to do with the speed of movement and the other is how fast it reacts.
