Corsair Nightsword RGB Gaming Mouse

The Corsair NightSword RGB boasts excellent build quality and accuracy along with high degree of customization with its abundance of buttons and lighting zones. The feel of the thumb rest – and the NightSword’s heavy weight – will be the deciding factor for spending an extra $20 over other high-end mice like the Corsair M65 RGB Elite.
