00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:06.799
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

00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:15.120
uses the same overall shell as the M60

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:20.519
which they released quite a while ago as one of their first foray into the

00:00:17.720 --> 00:00:24.599
peripheral world so the M60 and the M90 were Corsair's first gaming mice and

00:00:22.720 --> 00:00:28.320
they've basically taken what was already good about the existing models and

00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:31.519
improved on them in a couple of subtle ways so well actually the first way

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

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

00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:45.399
available in the traditional black as well as kind of like a sweet

00:00:43.800 --> 00:00:49.760
Stormtrooper white and it looks like what Corsair's going for here is no

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:54.559
matter what Corsair case you have you can pretty much get yourself a Vengeance

00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:58.359
M65 to match it packaging is pretty straightforward so it's just got a

00:00:56.079 --> 00:01:01.840
plastic shell within a cardboard exterior so there you go it's just just

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

00:01:03.559 --> 00:01:10.360
included in here so there's a little bit of documentation that's going to tell

00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:14.000
you about your 2-year warranty as well

00:01:10.360 --> 00:01:16.000
as how to go to Corsair.com and download

00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:21.000
the latest drivers which is like Yay don't bother including a disc what's the

00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:22.960
point and let's have a look at the mouse

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:51.280
about it's about an entire Linus

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

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

00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:05.280
you haven't already seen an M16 then this will be new if not considered

00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:09.119
a refresher so down here we've got three adjustable weight zones so you can

00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:14.599
customize not only the overall weight of the mouse but you can actually customize

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

00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:21.200
screwdriver here I'm just going to give go across one of the cameras with a

00:02:19.519 --> 00:02:26.080
crotch shot hopefully they don't switch to that one while we're in the editing

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

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

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

00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:44.040
also got poly Tetra fluoroethylene I

00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:48.840
think is what the actual name for it is but Teflon slippy pads all over the

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

00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:56.840
me calls them slippy pads but whatever because they it just means they're going

00:02:54.920 --> 00:03:01.040
to be less likely to wear out over time it doesn't actually affect how slippery

00:02:59.239 --> 00:03:03.920
the mouse is is on your mousing surface it just affects how long it takes for

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

00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:12.480
check this out so there's a solid aluminum house uh aluminum body to the

00:03:10.519 --> 00:03:15.959
mouse that makes it extremely rigid in the hand and actually also contributes a

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

00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:26.799
replaced with an avago adns 9800 sensor

00:03:23.519 --> 00:03:28.680
so that's capable of up to 88,200 DPI

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

00:03:30.920 --> 00:03:36.840
running like a surround monitor setup or very high resolution monitor because

00:03:35.640 --> 00:03:42.840
other than that you're probably going to turn that sensor down and uh yeah you

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

00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:50.000
features as well so you can adjust things like your lift distance you can

00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:55.799
adjust um angle snapping you can do surface testing with it it actually can

00:03:52.799 --> 00:03:57.360
uh can adapt to different surfaces quite

00:03:55.799 --> 00:04:00.599
easily so I mean yeah there's still advantages to having a high-end laser

00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:06.319
it's not necess necessarily all about DPI it just happens that a high-end

00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:08.680
laser tends to have high DPI because

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:13.000
people want more better numbers and all that good stuff so now let's get into

00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:18.479
the actual ergonomics of it it is pretty much an optimal shape for someone with

00:04:15.640 --> 00:04:21.680
smaller to midsize hands to Palm grip however I think someone with larger

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

00:04:23.479 --> 00:04:29.759
lick would probably be more comfortable with a claw grip on a mouse like this

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

00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:37.400
got baseball midsize hands so this gives you some perspective of everything from

00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:41.400
petite hands to large ones you've got back and forward buttons in there I

00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:45.440
would consider optimal locations a little bit offset from where your thumb

00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:49.280
would normally actually rest on this lip right here but still within easy

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

00:04:52.880 --> 00:04:57.440
activate those buttons if anything if I had to complain about something with

00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:01.199
respect to the positioning of the buttons here it's with my small hands if

00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:06.800
I'm not claw gripping I might have a little bit of trouble reaching the aim

00:05:02.880 --> 00:05:08.759
button here which is uh a DPI changer so

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

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

00:05:14.080 --> 00:05:19.919
top of the mouse we've got our DPI adjustment buttons as well as indicator

00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:25.360
LEDs and a solid metal scroll wheel that actually feels quite nice it has a fair

00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:26.680
bit of heft to it so Corsair's also

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

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

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

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:44.280
might be time to bring it back out and give it another crack because the

00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:47.639
overall build quality of the mouse is solid and as long as the software is up

00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:51.319
to Snuff then it does give a very good gaming experience so thank you for

00:05:49.440 --> 00:05:55.560
checking out my unboxing and first look at the Vengeance M65 from Corsair don't
