ASUS ROG STRIX Impact II Wireless Gaming Mouse Review
Peter Donnell / 4 years ago
ASUS may be better known for their motherboards and graphics cards, but make no mistake, they’re a serious competitor when it comes to peripherals too. Over the last few years in particular, we’ve seen some really amazing keyboards, headsets, gaming mice and more from them. Their mice have always been especially interesting, as they always try to do something a little more unique with their designs and features. Of course, as part of their ROG STRIX series, the new Impact II isn’t your typical office pointer either, this is their flagship gaming division, so it’s obviously a mouse to appeal to the enthusiast gamers out there.
ASUS ROG STRIX Impact II Wireless Gaming Mouse
The ASUS ROG Strix Impact II wireless gaming mouse comes equipped with an impressive 16,000 DPI optical sensor. That’s some seriously swift tracking for a wireless mouse, which often dial down the DPI to save power. You get 2.4 GHz wireless, ensuring lag-free and cable-free performance thanks to their SmartHop channel monitoring system. However, if you REALLY need that cable, it comes with a handy USB-C to get you hooked up. The features don’t end there either, with swappable switches, fully programmable buttons, RGB and more!
