this video is brought to you by our trusted Graphics partner

00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:13,000
NVIDIA welcome to my unboxing and first look at the Corsair Vengeance M65 it

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:15,120
uses the same overall shell as the M60

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:20,519
which they released quite a while ago as one of their first foray into the

5
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:24,599
peripheral world so the M60 and the M90 were Corsair's first gaming mice and

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:28,320
they've basically taken what was already good about the existing models and

7
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:31,519
improved on them in a couple of subtle ways so well actually the first way

8
00:00:30,359 --> 00:00:36,399
they've improved on them really isn't that subtle at all and it's now available in three colors as opposed to

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:42,239
one so we've actually got all three of them here today the one I'll be unboxing is a military green whereas it's also

10
00:00:40,079 --> 00:00:45,399
available in the traditional black as well as kind of like a sweet

11
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:49,760
Stormtrooper white and it looks like what Corsair's going for here is no

12
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:54,559
matter what Corsair case you have you can pretty much get yourself a Vengeance

13
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:58,359
M65 to match it packaging is pretty straightforward so it's just got a

14
00:00:56,079 --> 00:01:01,840
plastic shell within a cardboard exterior so there you go it's just just

15
00:01:00,039 --> 00:01:05,199
a molded shaped thing you pull out the mouse and that's pretty much all that's

16
00:01:03,559 --> 00:01:10,360
included in here so there's a little bit of documentation that's going to tell

17
00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:14,000
you about your 2-year warranty as well

18
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:16,000
as how to go to Corsair.com and download

19
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:21,000
the latest drivers which is like Yay don't bother including a disc what's the

20
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,960
point and let's have a look at the mouse

21
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:26,400
itself so I'm probably going to get slick to come join me here in a minute

22
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:30,920
no no not yet not yet sorry I'm just giving you prior warning I know usually

23
00:01:28,159 --> 00:01:35,159
I say that and I mean like immedi ah okay so we've got a braided cable that

24
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:38,479
terminates in a USB so there you go it's labeled so you know it's a mouse you

25
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,920
know it's Corsair assuming you can see both sides of it at the same time nice

26
00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:48,680
high quality braiding so you can't see any of the uh cords through there it's

27
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:51,280
about it's about an entire Linus

28
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:56,479
wingspan in length so that's actually it's probably a 6ot cord based on how uh

29
00:01:53,960 --> 00:02:00,520
how long that is compared to my arms and let's have a look at the ergonomics if

30
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:05,280
you haven't already seen an M16 then this will be new if not considered

31
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:09,119
a refresher so down here we've got three adjustable weight zones so you can

32
00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:14,599
customize not only the overall weight of the mouse but you can actually customize

33
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:18,040
also the uh the weight distribution of the mouse so I'm going to run and grab a

34
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:21,200
screwdriver here I'm just going to give go across one of the cameras with a

35
00:02:19,519 --> 00:02:26,080
crotch shot hopefully they don't switch to that one while we're in the editing

36
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:29,599
process so inside each of these ones you can decide okay oh I want it more heavy

37
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:33,959
at the back or I want it more heavy at the front so each of them has a little

38
00:02:32,239 --> 00:02:42,280
weight inside of it that you can either remove or keep in there all right we've

39
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:44,040
also got poly Tetra fluoroethylene I

40
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:48,840
think is what the actual name for it is but Teflon slippy pads all over the

41
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:53,159
bottom of the mouse I love seeing nice big slippy pads I don't think anyone but

42
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,840
me calls them slippy pads but whatever because they it just means they're going

43
00:02:54,920 --> 00:03:01,040
to be less likely to wear out over time it doesn't actually affect how slippery

44
00:02:59,239 --> 00:03:03,920
the mouse is is on your mousing surface it just affects how long it takes for

45
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,760
them to wear out so there's actually five of those on the bottom as well as

46
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:12,480
check this out so there's a solid aluminum house uh aluminum body to the

47
00:03:10,519 --> 00:03:15,959
mouse that makes it extremely rigid in the hand and actually also contributes a

48
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:23,519
little bit of weight to it as well another big Improvement they've made over the M60 is that the laser has been

49
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:26,799
replaced with an avago adns 9800 sensor

50
00:03:23,519 --> 00:03:28,680
so that's capable of up to 88,200 DPI

51
00:03:26,799 --> 00:03:33,159
which let's face it guys is only really going to be useful for you if you're

52
00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:36,840
running like a surround monitor setup or very high resolution monitor because

53
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:42,840
other than that you're probably going to turn that sensor down and uh yeah you

54
00:03:41,159 --> 00:03:45,640
probably won't use it to it to its full potential but it does have other cool

55
00:03:44,159 --> 00:03:50,000
features as well so you can adjust things like your lift distance you can

56
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:55,799
adjust um angle snapping you can do surface testing with it it actually can

57
00:03:52,799 --> 00:03:57,360
uh can adapt to different surfaces quite

58
00:03:55,799 --> 00:04:00,599
easily so I mean yeah there's still advantages to having a high-end laser

59
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:06,319
it's not necess necessarily all about DPI it just happens that a high-end

60
00:04:03,159 --> 00:04:08,680
laser tends to have high DPI because

61
00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:13,000
people want more better numbers and all that good stuff so now let's get into

62
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:18,479
the actual ergonomics of it it is pretty much an optimal shape for someone with

63
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:21,680
smaller to midsize hands to Palm grip however I think someone with larger

64
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:25,400
hands who I'm going to have just kind of lean over here and there you go thanks

65
00:04:23,479 --> 00:04:29,759
lick would probably be more comfortable with a claw grip on a mouse like this

66
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:33,320
whereas a palm grip is going to be a bit a of a challenge for him because he's

67
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:37,400
got baseball midsize hands so this gives you some perspective of everything from

68
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:41,400
petite hands to large ones you've got back and forward buttons in there I

69
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:45,440
would consider optimal locations a little bit offset from where your thumb

70
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:49,280
would normally actually rest on this lip right here but still within easy

71
00:04:47,919 --> 00:04:55,039
reaching distance and you're not going to lose control of the mouse or be unable to lift it if you want to

72
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,440
activate those buttons if anything if I had to complain about something with

73
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:01,199
respect to the positioning of the buttons here it's with my small hands if

74
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:06,800
I'm not claw gripping I might have a little bit of trouble reaching the aim

75
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,759
button here which is uh a DPI changer so

76
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:12,080
if you're zooming into snipe or whatever else you want to adjust your DPI on the

77
00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:16,039
Fly you just press that button and you're ready to go so moving up to the

78
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:19,919
top of the mouse we've got our DPI adjustment buttons as well as indicator

79
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:25,360
LEDs and a solid metal scroll wheel that actually feels quite nice it has a fair

80
00:05:22,319 --> 00:05:26,680
bit of heft to it so Corsair's also

81
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:33,240
updated their software they've got a second generation control panel that they've added now the early software for

82
00:05:30,639 --> 00:05:36,880
the M60 and the M90 was not very strong but it's actually improved a lot over

83
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:41,000
the last little while so if you have an M60 or an M90 that you've shelved uh

84
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:44,280
might be time to bring it back out and give it another crack because the

85
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,639
overall build quality of the mouse is solid and as long as the software is up

86
00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:51,319
to Snuff then it does give a very good gaming experience so thank you for

87
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:55,560
