Corsair Vengeance M90 Testing Methodology As I’m sure you’ve heard before, there are few benchmarks available for mice, so testing them remains a rather subjective experience. I put this mouse through its paces for a few weeks, using it for both work and gaming. Here are the games that I played in this time: Star Wars: The Old Republic (MMO) StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty (RTS) Battlefield 3 (FPS) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (FPS) Heroes of Newerth (MOBA) Results Gaming This mouse proved to be quite adept at gaming, as you’d expect from its price and feature list. I found the mouse a bit heavy initially (I’m the type to immediately remove all weights from mice that have them), but I grew used to it and don’t find it a problem. The highest DPI setting at 5700 was a bit too much for most games, but being afforded the opportunity to have the full range was still welcome. I found myself using a middling range DPI setting in RTS and MMO titles, but a higher setting for shooters. In these games, I used the M90′s ‘sniper mode’ button, which dampens the DPI to a much lower setting, whenever I needed the extra precision. The other specifications (such as lift height, tracking, 1 ms response time, etc.) I can’t really judge. Whilst I played around with the settings a bit, the defaults seemed to work quite well as they were. Again, while I didn’t see fit to change them, it is always nice to have these options available if you are working on a non-standard surface or have an odd grip style. The one potential flaw was that while the macro keys performed as expected in-game, in some software (like Mumble) I was unable to map functionality to keys beyond the initial five (left, right, middle, back, forward) that the OS expects. Whether this is a genuine case of missing functionality or whether I just didn’t come across the right combination of software settings to make it work, it is disappointing that I couldn’t get it to work. Overall though, the M90 was a top-notch performer in all of the games I tested it in. General use, looks & comfort Outside of games, I find the most important attributes of a mouse are its back/forward button placement and the design (and durability) of its scroll wheel. Looks and comfort are also important for daily use, so I’ll talk about them in this section as well. On the Corsair Vengeance M90, the back/forward buttons are quite small, but reasonably well placed on the left hand side for thumb activation. While I prefer a left/right layout for back/forward, as popularised by the Microsoft Intellimouse, it’s rare to see a mouse with this layout these days, no doubt due to the convenience of having all button connectors on one side. The buttons were placed perhaps a quarter of an inch too far forward for my liking, as I had to modify my stance in order to push them. However, it wasn’t enough of an issue that I felt compelled to remap the buttons. The scroll wheel is certainly a strong point for the M90, with its metal construction giving it a very sturdy feel. The scrolling action felt quite good, and I expect that its heavy-duty construction keeps it that way for some time. The Corsair M90 is a rather comfortable mouse to use. While it is a bit heavier than my ideal, its substantive shape and impressively smooth feet make it quite easy to use for hours on end. While I don’t generally mind a plain looking mouse, or score points against an overly ostentatious gaming mouse, I simply must mention the M90′s looks. I am a massive fan of its design, with its sharp industrial edges giving it a unique look. It leans more towards professional than silly. It also looks great on my desk, particularly next to the K90 which shares its brushed aluminium construction and subtle blue backlighting. This is the best looking mouse I’ve used, and I’m glad to finally have a gaming mouse that is more than “not entirely embarassing.” Overall then, quite good ratings outside of games as well. Let’s move onto that one last area of judgement, the bundled software. Software There are three panes to the Corsair M90′s software. Let’s look at them in turn. The first is called ‘Assign Buttons’, and as you’d expect is all about rebinding buttons to fulfil new functions. Like the K90′s software, you’re able to assign each button to a keyboard key or more advanced tasks like copy/paste or launching a program. You can also turn on and off the backlight and hardware playback here. The process of assigning keys isn’t immediately obvious (press the virtual MR button, click on the mouse button you’d like to assign on the diagram on the left, and then add whatever keys you want) but works well enough once you’ve discovered it. It’s useful that there are options for delays and so forth, as well as the option to keep the macro repeating until pressed again or while held. The second pane is called ‘Manage Performance’, and contains a number of interesting selections. You can select the DPIs that your mouse will cycle between when you hit the appropriate button (by default this is 800, 2400 and 5700). You can also select what the Sniper DPI will be (by default 800). You can customise the mouse further by turning on or off having independent DPI settings for x and y movement, as well as angle snapping (for Photoshop-style tasks). This pane also includes a Surface Quality test, which rates your mousing surface. Mine’s apparently good for full marks, so that’s good to know. Next to Surface Quality you find the lift height setting, which you can set to match your style (i.e. whether you press the mouse through the pad or pick it up and then put it down again). Finally, you’ve got the option here to change the report rate from 1 ms (default) to 2 ms, 4 ms or 8 ms. I can’t imagine this would be of much use beyond troubleshooting, but there it is. The last pane is Manage Profiles, which allows you to create new profiles, delete old profiles, as well as import and export profiles. This’d be quite useful if you wanted a different selection of mouse settings per game, or perhaps between gaming and normal office / graphics work. All in all, the software is comprehensive, if not particularly easy to use. With a bit of experience with it though, you’ll soon find it a useful tool.

Corsair bhfeice M90 Tástáil Modheolaíocht Mar tá mé cinnte go bhfuil tú chuala cheana, tá cúpla tagarmharcanna ar fáil do lucha, mar sin i gcónaí iad a thástáil le taithí in áit suibiachtúla. Chuir mé an luch trína paces ar feadh cúpla seachtain, ag baint úsáide as é do oibre agus cluichíochta. Seo iad na cluichí a imrítear mé san am: Star Wars: Poblacht na Sean (MMO) Starcraft II: Wings na Saoirse (RTS) Catha 3 (CCT) Call of Duty: cogaío Nua-3 (CCT) Heroes de Newerth (MOBA) Torthaí Chearrbhachas An luch a bhí le bheith go leor AdeptGenericName ag cearrbhachas, mar gur mhaith leat a bheith ag súil as a praghas agus liosta gné. Fuair mé an luch le beagán trom ar dtús (tá mé an cineál a bhaint láithreach go léir meáchain ó lucha a bheith acu), ach d'fhás mé a úsáidtear chun é agus nach é a fháil ar fhadhb. Ba é an suíomh is airde PSO ag 5700 le beagán iomarca le haghaidh cluichí is mó, ach a bheith an deis a bheith acu ar an raon iomlán cuireadh fáilte go fóill. Fuair mé mé féin ag baint úsáide as raon PSO suíomh i RTS agus teidil MMO middling, ach suíomh níos airde do lámhachóirí. Sna cluichí, úsáid mé an cnaipe 'modh sniper' M90, atá dampens an PSO a suíomh i bhfad níos ísle, aon uair is gá dom an cruinneas breise. Na sonraíochtaí eile (mar shampla airde ardaitheoir, rianú, 1 am freagartha ms, etc) Ní féidir liom i ndáiríre breitheamh. Cé gur imir mé timpeall leis na socruithe le beagán, agus bhain an mainneachtainí a bheith ag obair go maith mar a bhí siad. Arís, cé nach raibh mé a fheiceáil oiriúnach chun iad a athrú, tá sé i gcónaí deas a bheith acu ar na roghanna atá ar fáil má tá tú ag obair ar dhromchla neamh-chaighdeánach nó stíl grip corr a bheith acu. An locht amháin ad'fhéadfadh a bhí, cé go rinne na heochracha macra mar súil leis i-cluiche, i roinnt bogearraí (cosúil Mumble) a bhí mé in ann feidhmiúlacht a mhapáil le heochracha thar na cúig tosaigh (ar chlé, ar dheis, lár, ar ais, ar aghaidh) go bhfuil an OS ag súil leis. Cibé an bhfuil an cás dáiríre ar iarraidh feidhmiúlacht nó an bhfuil mé nach raibh teacht díreach trasna an meascán ceart de shuíomhanna bogearraí chun é a dhéanamh ag obair, tá sé díomá nach raibh mé in ann é a fháil ar an obair. Tríd is tríd, áfach, bhí an M90 ina ghníomhaí top-notch i ngach ceann de na cluichí a tástáladh mé é isteach Úsáid Ginearálta, Breathnaíonn & compord Lasmuigh de na cluichí, bhfaighidh mé na tréithe is tábhachtaí ar an luch go bhfuil ar a chúl / socrúcháin cnaipe ar aghaidh agus an dearadh (agus marthanacht) dá roth scrollbharra. Tá Breathnaíonn agus compord tábhachtach freisin le haghaidh úsáid go laethúil, agus mar sin beidh mé ag caint mar gheall orthu san alt seo chomh maith. Ar an bhfeice Corsair M90, is iad na cnaipí ar ais / ar aghaidh go leor beag, ach go réasúnta maith a chur ar thaobh na láimhe clé le haghaidh gníomhachtaithe ordóg. Cé gur fearr liom a leagan amach ar chlé / ceart ar ais / ar aghaidh, mar phobail ag an Intellimouse Microsoft, tá sé annamh a fheiceáil ar an luch leis an leagan amach na laethanta seo, aon amhras mar gheall ar an áisiúlacht a bhfuil gach chónaisc cnaipe ar thaobh amháin. Cuireadh na cnaipí b'fhéidir an ceathrú cuid de orlach i bhfad ró ar aghaidh i gcomhair mo liking, mar a bhí mé a mhodhnú mo seasamh chun a bhrú orthu. Mar sin féin, ní raibh sé go leor de i gceist gur bhraith mé iallach remap na cnaipí. Is é an roth scrollbharra cinnte pointe láidir ar an M90, lena tógála miotail a thugann sé a bhraitheann an-sturdy. An gníomh scrollaigh bhraith maith go leor, agus mé ag súil go gcoinníonn a dualgas trom-tógála sé sin ar bhealach ar feadh tamaill. Is é an M90 Corsair luch ionad compordach a úsáid. Cé go bhfuil sé beagán níos troime ná mo iontach, a dhéanamh ar a cruth substainteach agus na cosa impressively réidh sé éasca go leor a úsáid le haghaidh uair an chloig ar deireadh. Cé Ní miste domh go ginearálta ar an luch plain lorg, nó pointí a fuarthas i gcoinne luch cluichíochta ró ostentatious, ní mór dom a lua ach an M90 ar Breathnaíonn. Tá mé ar lucht leanúna ollmhór a dhearadh, a imill tionsclaíoch géar a thugann sé Féach ar leith. Leans sé níos mó i dtreo gairmiúla ná amaideach. Breathnaíonn sé chomh mór ar mo dheasc, go háirithe in aice leis an K90 a scaireanna a thógáil alúmanam brushed agus backlighting gorm subtle. Is é seo an luch is fearr ag lorg mé úsáid as, agus tá mé sásta go bhfuil deireadh le luch cluichíochta go bhfuil níos mó ná "nach embarassing go hiomlán." Rátálacha Ar an iomlán ansin, maith go leor taobh amuigh de na cluichí chomh maith. A ligean ar bogadh isteach ar an limistéar sin ceann deireanach de na breithiúnais, na bogearraí cuachta. Bogearraí Tá trí panes chun bogearraí an M90 ar Corsair. A ligean ar breathnú ar iad a seal. An chéad cheann ar a dtugtar 'Sann Buttons', agus mar gur mhaith leat a bheith ag súil leis ar fad faoi cnaipí Athcheangailt a chomhlíonadh feidhmeanna nua. Cosúil leis an K90 ar bogearraí, tá tú in ann do gach cnaipe a shannadh don eochair méarchlár nó tascanna níos mó chun cinn cosúil le cóipeáil / greamaigh nó ag seoladh clár. Is féidir leat dul chomh maith ar thalamh an backlight agus athsheinm crua-earraí anseo. Níl an próiseas heochracha a shannadh láithreach léir (brúigh an cnaipe fíorúil MR, cliceáil ar an cnaipe luiche mhaith leat a shannadh ar an léaráid ar chlé, agus ansin cuir cuma cad é ba mhaith leat eochracha) ach oibríonn go maith go leor nuair a tá tú ' ve fuair sé. Tá sé úsáideach go bhfuil roghanna i leith moilleanna agus mar sin de, chomh maith leis an rogha a choinneáil ar an macra athrá go dtí go brúite arís nó le linn ar siúl. Tá an dara phána ar a dtugtar 'Bainistiú Feidhmíochta', agus tá roinnt roghanna suimiúil. Féidir leat a roghnú an DPIs go mbeidh do luch timthriall idir nuair a bhuail tú ar an cnaipe cuí (mar réamhshocrú tá sé seo 800, 2400 agus 5700). Féidir leat a roghnú freisin cad a bheidh ar an PSO Sniper a bheith (trí mhainneachtain 800). Is féidir leat a shaincheapadh ar an luch a thuilleadh ag casadh ar thalamh nó ar a bhfuil socruithe PSO neamhspleácha le haghaidh x agus y gluaiseacht, chomh maith le snapping uillinn (do Photoshop-stíl tascanna). Seo phána chomh maith le tástáil Cáilíochta Dromchla, atá go ndéanann do dromchla mousing. Tá mianach cosúil go maith do marcanna iomlána, agus mar sin go bhfuil a fhios go maith. Aghaidh a Cáilíochta Dromchla fhaigheann tú an suíomh airde ardaitheoir, ar féidir leat a leagtar a mheaitseáil do stíl (ie an bhfuil tú ar an cnaipe ar an luch tríd an ceap nó é a phiocadh suas agus ansin é a chur síos arís). Mar fhocal scoir, tá tú an rogha anseo chun an ráta tuarascáil ó 1 ms (réamhshocrú) a athrú go dtí 2 ms, 4 ms nó 8 ms. Ní féidir liom a shamhlú go mbeadh sé seo a bheith ar úsáid i bhfad níos faide ná fabhtcheartaithe, ach tá sé. Tá an phána deireanach Próifílí bhainistiú, a ligeann duit a chruthú próifílí nua, próifílí sean scrios, chomh maith le próifílí allmhairiú agus onnmhairiú. This'd a bheith úsáideach go leor má raibh tú rogha éagsúla de shuíomhanna luch in aghaidh an cluiche, nó b'fhéidir idir cearrbhachas agus gnáth oifige / grafaicí oibre. Gach i ngach, is é an bogearraí cuimsitheach, go háirithe más rud é nach éasca a úsáid. Le beagán de thaithí cé leis é, beidh tú go luath sé ina uirlis úsáideach.
