MSI Announces Gaming Series W8 Gaming Mouse

btarunr · May 16, 2014

It's not just motherboards, graphics cards, and notebooks that MSI is trying to sell under its Gaming Series brand, the company is also taking cracks at gaming peripherals from time to time. Its latest creation is the Gaming Series W8 gaming mouse. One of the few ambidextrous palm-grip mice in existence, the W8 has a very Sharkoon Drakonia-like appearance to it. The W8 offers eight programmable buttons with native macro storage on a 128 KB ROM. Under its hood is a 5,600 dpi sensor with on-the-fly adjustments. Other features include adjustable weight, and a software app to make macro settings. MSI didn't reveal pricing or availability.

amazon writes this "In stock. Usually ships within 3 to 4 days. Sold by OneDealOutlet Online" so it should be out already which also surprised me ^^
