R.A.T Tournament Edition gaming mouse – SA price

Local distributor Comet Computing has just shipped a batch of R.A.T Tournament Edition (TE) gaming mice.

The TE, currently selling for R1,199, is being punted as a “nimble and precise” gaming mouse for the competitive gamer.

The mouse’s full specifications can be viewed, below, but its main features include a Precision Aim mode with on-the-fly cursor sensitivity adjustment, and the usual customisable buttons and macros.

“The Tournament Edition R.A.T. Gaming Mouse is a fierce weapon that puts a full arsenal of cutting-edge features at your fingertips,” its makers claim.

Gamers can also calibrate the TE’s sensors in terms of its lift-off height, allowing you to tweak the mouse to suit your gameplay.

On a personal note, it also looks pretty badass.

The mouse’s technical specs are listed, below.

PC Mag awarded the TE 90/100, along with an Editor’s Choice award, when they reviewed the unit a couple of months ago. Not too shabby.
