Leading gaming peripheral manufacturer Razer has announced the launch of a laser gaming mouse called ‘Lachesis’. This high-precision 3G laser gaming mouse is truly a revolutionary peripheral as it features 4000 dpi laser!

According to Robert Krakoff, president of Razer, “None of the DPI numbers on our mice are interpolated figures, which other mouse makers’ achieve by enabling tweaking of the software included with their mice. Our DPI specifications are all hardware-based, which essentially means what you see is what you get – true DPI.”

Krakoff also mentioned that the Lachesis gaming mouse features another two buttons below the scroll wheel. Using these buttons, gamers can cycle through pre-determined DPI stages.

“We’ve heard the communities’ requests for true on-the-fly DPI switching and we-ve designed the Razer Lachesis to make it possible,” added Krakoff.

The design of the Razer Lachesis laser gaming mouse is simply amazing. It measures 129mm (l) x 71mm (w) x 40mm (h) and weighs around 128gs. This mouse is sure to become a craze among gamers who desire nothing but the best when it comes to doing what they do the best i.e. gaming!
