The Pulsefire Surge RGB measures 120.24×40.70×62.85mm for a weight of 130 grams including the 1.8 meters braided cable.

The weight of the Pulsefire Surge is very contained and perfect for those users who like using a not too heavy mouse. The Pulsefire Surge fits under our hand like a glove, its design is completely homogeneous and facilitates any type of grip. It is made of matte black plastic that is really pleasant to the touch.

It has a total of 6 fully programmable buttons via the NGenuity software: two main buttons equipped with OMRON mechanical switches (50 million keystrokes), two thumb buttons, a clickable scroll wheel and a DPI button (800/1600/3200 DPI default levels).

The Pulsefire Surge’s speed can reach 450 IPS (inches per second), a 50G acceleration and a 1000Hz polling rate. One of its strengths is its Pixart PMW3389 sensor with a maximum sensitivity of 16,000 DPI that is extremely accurate and precise under all circumstances.
