A billion spells, macros for looting, and a ton of other quick decisions that prop up your inevitably ZDPS build are a staple of the MMO genre, as well as MOBAs and whatever game that stretches you beyond what’s on the keyboard. One of the best gaming mice around, the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite, is a mouse that’s ready to take you beyond keyboard hotkeys by giving you an array of programmable buttons on the side. In effect, the side becomes one of the best gaming keyboards, but for your thumb. And right now its just $60, down $30 from the usual $90. Tap the button below to see it yourself (and double-check if this deal is still on) or keep reading for more info.

Why you should buy the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite

At its core, the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite is a solidly-constructed gaming mouse with low latency, up to 18,000 DPI movements, and four-zone RGB backlighting. Its construction is familiar, yet refined, and will fit comfortably under your palm and fingers.

Of course, the thing that elevates the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite from a good mouse to an “Elite” mouse is the programmable buttons. There are 17 in total, but that’s admittedly a bit of a stretch. It’s great that you can program the right and left mouse buttons, the scroll wheel, and the two buttons sitting below the scroll wheel, of course, but it’s really the 12 buttons on the side that anyone should get excited about. They’re arranged into three rows and four columns in a way that adapts to the curvature of the mouse and hand; no accidental presses from a grazing thumb over upraised buttons. Furthermore, the panel can be adapted to your thumb length, as it slides forward to back. If you mainly just use three buttons, you might slide it to where your thumb rests comfortably near the 1, 2, and 3, for instance. Or, if you’re a full 12 button maniac, you can slide the panel more forward to comfortably rest between the 5 and the 8.

Tap the button below to find the Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite gaming mouse at a price of just $60, a savings of $30 off of the usual $90 price. It won’t be at this price point forever, however, so make sure to check on it now. Then, consider checking out our selection of the best gaming monitors so you can get a better view on the effects of your Corsair’s extra button presses.
