It really is a pretty tremendous mouse to use in the office all day to slay some spreadsheets, and then fire up your favourite game and slay your enemies all night.

Recommendation

We very much liked the implementation when assembling the Chakram Core, everything is easy to disassemble and just as quick to reassemble. The joystick is another feature that is definitely a selling point.

Review Gaming Mouse with joystick design for Ergonomic-Right

Together with the switch structure developed by ASUS, the switch can stand in a very solid way and offer us a more powerful feel compared to normal mechanics. Overall, I really like this four-zone grip on this keyboard structure of the product.

You can see the latency of the mouse, the monitor and the system as a whole

For the test, I used a ROG Chakram mouse compatible with Nvidia Reflex

The mechanism utilizes springs and metal hinges to balance the keys and minimize the distance between the buttons and switches. The upshot is minimal travel and rapid return, ensuring superb speed, responsiveness and consistency with every click.
