SteelSeries Rival 100, Optical Gaming Mouse - Alchemy Gold

Shipping was FAST! Coming from the other side of the world to my home was pretty quick received package in 4 days (including weekends) Mouse works perfectly good upgrade from a Kinzu v2 Pro User (sadly broke :( )

It feels a bit lite but otherwise it works as intended.

Pros ~ - Cheap. - Customizable. (Through the Steel Series software) - On the fly DPI button. - Two side buttons. Cons ~ - Gets dirty easily. (Mainly between the two side buttons) - Non-braided cable - Not gold plated USB cable.

Works well. Happy with the quality for the price.

Today the left click button just died. Not clicks are registered 1/3rd of the time. It was working without problem and now all of a sudden it just stopped working. Never buying Steel Series product again. Edit: After uninstalling and installing the driver made the mouse usable again.

I was tired of buying cheap mouses at Wal-Mart that would only last for maybe six months, so I wanted to buy something a little more expensive that would last longer. Ive had this mouse for probably around two years now and it still works great! It was so worth paying a little more for it since it lasts so much longer. The only issue I ever had was it completely quit working, but I hadnt been doing the routine updates. Once I got caught up with all that, it worked perfectly again. I like how I can change the color or speed whenever I want. Im not much of a gamer, but it works perfectly for all the hours I spend on my computer each day. I highly recommend it!

The mouse is great. Had it for over a year playing FPS games and its still going strong. But the mouse software has become a nuisance. They force a new updates as often as possible just to make you look at their item store.

The right/left click have a smooth transition and the thumb buttons are in exactly the right place.

There isnt much that I need to say; the Rival 110 is a cheap gaming mouse made by a reputable company. It points well, the sensor is probably more than enough for someone on this kind of budget, and its got a (mostly) ambi grip. You can hold it however you please and it will still be a mouse. The click is solid and has a very satisfying tactile and audible response. Only issue you may find is that the cable is coated and not braided. End of obligatory review. My real issue is with SteelSeries software. The software itself is great, if not a bit confusing even for a power user. The issue I encountered is when I tried to take this mouse up as a replacement for the $5 Logi mouse at my office. You can keep a color profile onboard, but no macros. No problem, just make a portable version on a drive and then use it at work right? Unfortunately this software must be installed on every computer you intend to use and sort of features the mouse has outside of remembering what color LEDs you want. If youre using this in several locations and arent able to install the SteelSeries engine on all of them, you may want to look elsewhere.

I was impatient at the time of the order, I was short on change so I couldn’t get the rival 310 instead. But this is a nice mouse and works amazingly and has customizable lighting as well! Would recommend
