That's possibly the first gaming mouse I've seen I would consider owning, though I don't think I would end up using all 12 buttons. I'm not actually sure how you're supposed to rest your hands while having access to those buttons.

That aside though, its pretty well styled, doesn't look like something from Mars like most gaming mice, so if not for the horrible yellow (and to an extent the price) I might pick one of those up. Keyboard is way over price for me though.

All these products look SICK! I was going to the Razor Chroma Keyboard but might get these peripherals now instead.

What case is that??

Most importantly - they're all sporting the good-old sails logo.

I'd say Corsair's "Graphite Series™ 380T"

It's actually a slightly updated version of the old logo, but at least they've put the tramp stamp to rest.

After being repeatedly ignored and let down by Razer I'm thinking of changing mice. They are the best for me but god damn when you buy 3 in 5 years it's taking the cheese a lil bit.

If anything I bet Corsair bother replying if I have an issue

Unfortunately they kept the yellow, half victory at least.

Really like the look of the keyboard. Couldn't see a mouse besting the Razer Deathadder for me, but my Black Widow is a bit long in the tooth now. And noisy as all hell! Wouldn't mind me some of that per-game profiling!

YUK!!!!!

Corsair, I love you, but please make me a decent mouse!!
12 buttons, great... But lumping them all in one place for whatever MMOs require it immediately means I cannot, as a Claw mouser, use this. Palmers only.

What I'd like to see from Corsair is something with buttons spread around, like the Steelseries Cataclysm WoW, Logitech G700 or the Roccat Tyon, so I can Palm or Claw while still pressing several buttons at once.

So far, out of 4 corsair products owned (wireless headset, case, keyboard, memory sticks) 3 have been excellent. The wireless headset (Vengeance 2100) is amazing, can't comment on newer ones, but my wife uses these, she tends to destroy hardware but these have held up very nicely and even I'd use them as my main set quality wise.

The case and sticks (obsidian 800D and... I forget on the sticks) have been fine. The corsair cases are nice in that they have full stock of various parts/upgrades etc for them on the site.

The only part I had trouble with is the keyboard. I will admit I bought it expecting trouble and using it to my advantage (K95 vanilla is notorious for dying backlights) after the first replacement had backlights dying they upgraded me to the K95 RGB (as I expected). It's been solid since. So - all in all I'll personally be putting money in the brand so long as it doesn't get too arrogant. 3 decent/good products and awesome support on the weaker one is a pretty good score.

Edit: As far as product suggestions go, I'm with Ttaskmaster - a G700-esqe mouse with a decent battery (use a cell we can dig out and replace after a longish life if needed - preferable to battery IMO) would be an almost instant purchase. My G700's still going strong though. Needs a new eneloop battery under the hood but can't grumble otherwise.
