we're at the Corsair showcase at CES 2013 where we have a whole bunch of new
peripheral stuff to show you guys welcome to Linus Tech tips at CES 2013
our trip to the show this year is powered by Corsair maker of quality PC
components and peripherals our trusted storage partner is Seagate technology
and our trusted networking partner is
linkis so the M90 and the M60 are being
replaced by the m95 and the M65 so as
before the 9 9x Mouse is the MMO Centric
Mouse and the six sort of and whatever else it is mouse is the FPS oriented
Mouse so you've got those same features we saw before things like MMO optimize
macro programmable buttons all over the m95 we've got see two more up here and
your DPI sniping button right here on the left of the M60 as well as your back
and forward and your DPI adjustments up here the changes that have been made are
more subtle than you might have expected
so every button on the side of this mouse has now been fine-tuned in terms
of the force required to trigger it they're all actually different now no
rattle but a bunch of changes this is a an evolutionary change that was
necessary because some people were finding it you know it's hard to please
everyone some people find it too stiff some people find it not stiff enough so
Corsair feels that now they've got this dead zone in the middle that allows you
to lift The Mouse and the buttons should be a little bit easier trigger
especially up here versus how they were before and I actually my feedback so far
is very very positive because it is easier to feel your way around and
easier to find the correct buttons you want to trigger they're also available
in a variety of finishes now check this out so m95 comes in Black just like the
M90 it also comes in a bright Stormtrooper white so you can see it's
glossy here but unlike the aari laser
White Edition which I found I wanted to
love it I really did but it was obnoxious because because the sides were
slippery uh glossy plastic as well they've gone with a matte finish here in
the dead zone and here for your pinky rest so what that means is you can still
lift the thing without actually just having it fall out of your hand so
that's a great move from Corsair right there the M65 is available in three
finishes so you got that black that Stormtrooper white again Matt on the
side so you can actually lift the thing and a military green style that should
be a big hit for the FPS users running Vengeance C70 cases say for example if
you wanted a totally matching themed Corsair build go for it and get yourself
one of these they've also upgraded the sensor so it's using the latest 8200 DPI
laser sensor for the most Precision possible personally I you know don't
really crank up the DPI unless I'm using a multim monitor setup for but for you
multim monitor Gamers out there you're going to love that next we've got
actually just a small upgrade to the Vengeance 1500 2000 they've got Dolby
now so don't don't worry guys if you're an existing Vengeance headset user and
you've got A500 or a 2,000 you're going to go ahead and you're going to download
that update you're going to enjoy that effect no big deal you don't
have to buy anything new they're also introducing the mm600 mouse mat so we've
seen some cloth pads already from Corsair this is a hard pad it's
reversible evidently so there's a rough surface on this side that's got a plain
black finish and then there's a smoother surface on here that has kind of a crisy
looking hexagon pattern thing that looks very very very sharp as well this
however over here is the PS resistance
as far as the demos go this is the k95 now the k60 and the k90 are not going
away the k95 is going to be positioned above those ones but it has some really
cool features that Gamers have demanded
number one and it's in addition to the three sets of macro profiles macro
recording mode bright Bri adjustment has three
levels now or no I hav had three levels before a brightness adjustment uh you
can lock the Windows key media Keys all that good stuff check this out Cherry MX
Reds all over the freaking place now so
the entire keyboard if it's a key that
moves it has a Cherry MX red switch under it it also has an individual
backlight also you guys are going to love this too check this
out when you trigger a key you can
actually toggle which backlights you want on so you
could turn off the whole thing and write
your name in your keyboard check this
out well I don't know if I'm going to make it all the way through my whole
name here but I think you guys get the point you can also customize which keys
are on and which keys are off in various applications using the corser gaming
software when you're done customizing it you decide this is exactly how you want
your keyboard to look you hit the button again and now you can use your keyboard
as you normally would very cool stuff don't miss any of our CES 2013 coverage
