MSI's Second Gaming Mouse Arrives: The DS100

MSI recently announced its first gaming mouse, and now its second one has hit shelves: the Interceptor DS100. This mouse has an ambidextrous shape and is suitable for both claw and palm grips. The mouse weighs about 135 grams. Its red and black theme is meant to make the mouse match the MSI Gaming hardware.

MSI has fitted the mouse with seven programmable buttons, among which we find the standard left and right buttons, forwards and backwards on the left of the mouse, DPI switching buttons, and a clickable scroll wheel. They can be programmed into the accompanying software which also allows you to control the multi-color backlighting.

A 3500 DPI sensor controls tracking. The DPI setting can be tuned to your liking from as low as 10 DPI. The sensor will track at 6,600 FPS, and you can cover a maximum of 30 inches per second. The mouse is linked to your PC through a braided cable with a gold-plated USB connector.

The mouse is available immediately for a price of $30.
