Gaming mice do not need to cost a king's ransom. Corsair proves otherwise with its Katar, an optical gaming mouse with an 8,000 dpi sensor. Normally priced at a reasonable $40, it is currently on sale for just $20.
You can't take a date to the movies for that price (at most theaters, anyway). What you get here is a compact rodent that is also lightweight at just 85 grams. It also has an ambidextrous shape.
This is not a feature-rich mouse by any means, though it does cover the basics, including four programmable buttons and on-the-fly dpi switching. It also comes with a "pro player mode" with pre-configured settings that are supposedly customized by the "world's top players."
Bottom line—this is a cheap mouse for gamers on a budget.
You can find the Katar on sale at Amazon (opens in new tab) and Newegg (opens in new tab). Also be sure to check our picks for the best wired and wireless mice.
