We can’t help but love Corsair, and I’m sure many of our readers feel the same way. They have many of the finest PC cases, keyboards, headsets and so much more available today. Of course, they also have many fantastic and award-winning gaming mice. I should know, as over the years I’ve awarded them many times myself. Their new Nightsword looks like the next contender for one of our awards too, rocking some pretty impressive specifications, as well as a superb design.
It comes equipped with the latest Pixart PWM3371 optical sensor. The latest sensor is capable of an impressive 18000 DPI in 1 DPI increments. Combine this with their new weight-tuning system, ten fully programmable buttons, 50m click rated Omron switches, four-zone RGB lighting, and so much more. On paper, it certainly has the hardware to be one of the best Corsair mice ever, and easily competitive with anything else on the market today.

The mouse comes nicely packaged, and there are about a million tiny bits of clear plastic on the mouse keeping the glossy surfaces clean. It’s a bugger taking them all off, but hey, it the mouse is safe in the box, I’m happy.
The Nightsword comes hard-wired with a black braided USB cable, and a very nice quality USB header. There’s also a small box, which contains the additional weights for the weight tuning system.
There are six weights in total, and with them all removed the mouse weighs 119g, and you can take that up to 141g. Of course, you’ll see you can put them in different configurations to balance the mouse too.
