WIRED GAMING MICE

Shave weight for the ultimate flick shots with these wired gaming mice

- Jacob Ridley

Wired gaming mice haven't gone anywhere despite plenty of competition from their wire-free counterparts. By keeping a cable around it's possible to shave the maximum amount of weight from a mouse for rapid reactions and fast flick shots. There's also the added benefit of never having your mouse die partway through a match of Valorant. If an ultra-lightweight gaming mouse sounds like something you'd be interested in, for this issue of PC Gamer I've put some of today's hottest contenders against one another to see how they fare. There are some of our favourites in the mix, including the DeathAdder from Razer and Logitech's excellent G502, but also some cheaper options like Corsair's Sabre Pro. In this pile of tethered rodents there's sure to be a good fit for your desktop and budget.
