SeekerRazer Viper 8KHz
The Razer Viper 8KHz is excellent for FPS gaming. It's surprisingly very light for a mouse without a honeycomb design and feels very well-built. Its ambidextrous body has a low profile that's great for a fingertip grip, but small hands may struggle to reach some buttons. It has a wide and adjustable CPI range, an incredibly low click latency, and a low lift-off distance. Its 8000Hz maximum polling rate provides smoother and more consistent cursor movements than a gaming mouse with a standard 1000Hz polling rate.
