Logitech G9X Mouse for Gaming

  Now twitching in your hands, it’s about time we told you about it’s game playing assistive abilities, and they do not disappoint.

For this part of the review we obviously require a game, so, one of my favourites, Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 3 is loading, and I pile straight into my favourite map, Overgrown; I notice straight away how well the mouse glides on the gaming mat, pure smooth slipper feet made from teflon are no doubt the reason, but I can tell you this, it is super silky smooth. It even works fairly well on the bare desk and my slacks so no worries there.

 

The mouse is as accurate as you’d expect from a G-Series rodent, with the 5700dpi sensor seemingly underwhelmed at my playing ability. At a little under 4″ x 3″ in size it is a full size mouse, with yet another plus point being the Logitech G9x’s ergonomic design, even after an hour of play I can hardly feel any strain on my wrist or fingers.

The Dual Mode scroll wheel allows precise selection when required yet can spin like the moon if you ask it. A simple light click down alternates between the 2 modes. Hyper Scroll – Click to Click.

Logitech have also quoted a polling rate of 1000hz, pretty darn quick, so absolutely no problems with communications lag, and the potential 165″ second tracking ability is not only beyond my arms, but well beyond the reach of this, and most likely any, desk.

The G9x is an Optical Laser Gaming Mouse, which means it uses a Laser and Sensor that read the surface the mouse is gliding across, with a superior 5700dpi engine the accuracy is stunning and a relative maximum acceleration of 30g is enough to make sure the pointer sits exactly where you ask it too.It’s Windows XP, Vista and 7 Ready, Plug and Play if you feel like doing without the SetPoint software, which I would personally recommend.

In conclusion, the Logitech G9x Gaming Mouse is without doubt an excellent piece of Kit, capable of not least impressing your friends but also making your gaming experiences that bit more enjoyable.
