ASUS is making some additions to their MMO/MOBA mouse series. Adding to the new additions is their ROG Spatha X 65K mouse. The new mouse is aimed at gamers who are in need of more macro control.
ASUS ROG Spatha X 65K mouse features 12 programmable buttons and 65,000 DPI sensor
This mouse comes with 12 programmable buttons for a more dedicated gamer. This is important as it gives a more specialized tool to those gamers who enjoy these genres, and feel like they're stuck with a normal mouse.
Specifications
- Sensor: ROG AimPoint Pro 65K
- Switches: 3rd Gen ROG Hot-Swappable Micro Switches (ROG Silent Micro Switches, ROG Micro Switches Gen 2)
- Buttons: 12 programmable buttons
- Weight: 126g base, supports 2x 10g weights
- Connectivity: ROG SpeedNova wireless
This mouse uses a ROG AimPoint Pro 65K sensor for highly accurate mouse movements. They also have ROG SpeedNova wireless connection available to them for low latency gaming. The mouse also gives you 3 types of switches to use. Including their new 3rd Gen Hot-swappable Micro Switches.
This mouse comes with an initially light-weight body (126 grams). ASUS adds in 2x 10 gram weights for you to make it balanced the way you want. With 12 programmable buttons the mouse is laid out to help you out with your grip type you might use in an MMO/MOBA game.
The ROG Spatha X 65K is now on sale in China. It's starting price tag is 1199 CNY (180USD). You'll be able to purchase this on November 9th, 2024 at 20:00 (official sale).
We've talked about both the ASUS ROG Gladius IV Ace and ASUS ROG Spatha X 65K mouse before. Both of which have the 65,000dpi sensors.
This will bring another high button mouse to the ROG gaming mouse selection. With the AimPoint Pro 65K sensor as well as the ability to change up the weights and switches. Gamers who enjoy MMO games and want some specialized hardware can now pre-order in China.
126 grams base with two 10 gram weights is a weird middle ground. I want to see independent latency tests before trusting the SpeedNova claim.
my grip is too sweaty for this many buttons tbh 🤔
The article mentions the AimPoint Pro 65K sensor. That is a 65000 DPI rating. It does not mean 65000 counts per inch of movement accuracy. The polling rate is the real metric for responsiveness.
