![]() Your hardware letting you down is not an option when money is at stake, so increasing the polling rate of your mouse seems like the latest logical step. We do however live in a point of time where refresh rates are on the rise (we tested this mouse on Alienware's 360Hz panel), and where pro gamers are pushing hardware to the limits. Even quick jerks to the left and right, when you suddenly find you've been flanked can be recorded accurately enough. That's because checking where your mouse is one thousand times a second is generally enough to be able to work out what you're doing. Why does that matter? To be honest for most normal humans it probably doesn't. While most mice stick to a 1,000Hz, this new rodent is polled eight times that, at 8,000Hz. In the case of the Viper 8K Hz, Razer has taken the standard Viper and improved the polling rate. We've had wireless spins of some classics, or updated ones that have better optics. The Razer Viper 8K Hz is the latest in a long list of mice from the snake-obsessed peripheral and PC maker that subtly tweaks an existing fan favorite. And that means it's a must for this list. But it is one of the very few gaming mice designed purely with left-handers in mind, and in a many-buttoned use case that previously passed them by. It's also a rather chunky and relatively heavy mouse too, which makes it more of a specialised weapon than a daily driver of a gaming rodent. The sad thing is that it lacks the swappable button panels of the Naga Pro or Pro V2, and that 12 button panel can be unwieldy to use effectively in the heat of battle. Thankfully Razer has created the online-exclusive Naga Left-Handed Edition which caters purely for the sinister southpaws.įorm and function-wise it is identical to the original right-handed Naga design, which means that MMO or MOBA gamers have an otherwise unprecedented volume of programmable buttons at their finger and thumb tips. ![]() Or you could but it'd be an absolute mess of a mouse. There's no way you could squeeze all the Naga's many buttons onto an ambidextrous design. Admittedly, the right-handed lot are enjoying some more advanced models in the Razer Naga V2 Pro and Naga V2 Hyperspeed nowadays, but we still have a lot of love for the original Left-Handed Edition. The Razer Naga has long been the go-to MMO mouse of choice, but resolutely inaccessible for left-handed gamers.
