Within its family of products, the M65 RGB ULTRA and its WIRELESS version include the brand’s most advanced technology to date. Thus, both models incorporate a Marksman optical sensor with up to 26,000 DPI of maximum sensitivity that, of course, is configurable (via iCUE) in steps of 1 in 1 DPI, and that offers unbeatable precision.

This precise sensor is complemented by the CORSAIR QUICKSTRIKE main buttons, which incorporate a specially designed spring so that there is no gap between the left and right clicks, something that combined with its top quality OMRON switches gives you instant response and durability outside of the box. any doubt.

Of course, the CORSAIR AXON technology is incorporated that provides a polling frequency of up to 8,000 Hz in the normal model and up to 2,000 Hz in the wireless model, resulting in minimal latency for all the movements and clicks that we make in the mouse to register on PC instantly.

Both mice are fully Plug & Play and the PC will instantly recognize them when plugged in; the regular M65 RGB ULTRA connects via USB, while the WIRELESS model features a USB dongle for 2.4GHz wireless communication with CORSAIR SLIPSTREAM technology , while also featuring a Bluetooth mode that at the same time , it serves to save a little battery (up to 120 hours in this Bluetooth mode for 90 hours in the high-performance SLIPSTREAM mode).

Both mice have the same aesthetic as the previous generation M65 models, with their distinctive aluminum frame (ideal for users using a claw-type mouse grip) and adjustable weight management system that allows gamers to adjust the weight of the mouse. mouse as you see fit and most comfortable for you.

Of course, its 8 programmable buttons include the characteristic oversized Sniper button so acclaimed by FPS players, and which is generally configured as a “sensitivity clutch” so that, only while we press it, the sensitivity of the mouse is reduced to be able to aim with maximum precision (which is why it is known as “Sniper”, which means sniper).

The M65 RGB ULTRA model incorporates a cable protected by braided nylon wire and that has a maximum resistance while it does not disturb if it slides on the table to have good freedom of movement. For its part, the wireless model incorporates the same cable but in this case it is connected via USB-C to the mouse in order to charge its battery; In addition, the mouse allows you to charge the battery and continue using it at the same time so as not to lose a second in the game.

Another novelty of these new CORSAIR mice is the inclusion of Sensor Fusion technology, which incorporates a gyroscope and a six-axis accelerometer that instantly detect when the user lifts the mouse from the table, allowing an ultra take-off distance. low so that accidental erratic movements are never experienced when repositioning the mouse mid-game.

The gyroscope can also be programmed using the iCUE software to perform tilt gestures, so we can even configure game commands such as reloading the weapon when we lift the mouse and turn it to the side (obviously, other actions can also be configured other than for games).

Finally, it should be noted that both mice have RGB lighting in 2 independently configurable zones from the software, but how could it be otherwise they also have internal memory so as not to have to depend on the software to configure their sensitivity and button assignments and, in this way, being able to use the mouse on any PC, always having our personalized configuration.
