Precision performance: Don't miss with this carbon fiber gaming mouse

The ROG Harpe Ace Extreme.

If you spend a lot of time on your computer, you know how important it is to have the right mouse. What's "the right mouse"? For me, it's something ultralight, with incredible precision and a top-notch response rate; a device that serves the pixel-perfect needs of a creative and the performance demands of an esports competitor; something sleek, attractive, and innovative. Something like the ROG Harpe Ace Extreme gaming mouse.

Pixel-Perfect Precision

The tech inside the ROG Harpe Ace Extreme is top of the line. The AimPoint Pro optical sensor offers 42,000 DPI, allowing for incredible precision. But not only is it accurate—it's also adaptable. Its track-on-glass technology ensures that, no matter what environment you're operating in (or on), your mouse will be able to read your movements. 

Speaking of changing environments, this mouse's wireless maneuverability is impressive. With ROG SpeedNova, your wireless performance is reliable with minimal lag (so if your reaction time is dragging, it's a skill issue). Plus, you can send the polling rate through the roof with the ROG Polling Rate Booster. Attach the receiver to your computer to achieve a polling rate of up to 8,000 Hz—that's 8,000 times per second you're communicating with your computer, resulting in motions that are almost at the speed of your thoughts.

Constructed for Combat

It's not just about what's inside, though—what's on the outside also counts. In this case, it's a super-light 47g case. Many other mice punch holes in their shell to drive the weight down, but the ROG Harpe Ace Extreme is simply a feat of craftsmanship. The carbon fiber shell also provides durability, making for a weight-to-strength ratio that feels good and looks even better.

The strength isn't just in the material itself. It's also in the shape. The design was developed in consultation with the people who are most keenly aware of the importance of gaming performance: esport pros. The architecture of the Harpe Ace Extreme was planned with stability and control in mind, ensuring your sights remain steady while tracking your opponent. Also, the glass feet will increase your movement speed, making your next flick find its mark even faster. The Harpe Ace Extreme also comes with an array of premium accessories, including the ROG Polling Rate Booster, a hard-shelled carrying case, a cleaning kit and more, to help elevate the player's time at the computer.

But I don't want you to think this is only a tool for the elite of the elite. Maybe you're trying to find a spot on a highly strategic MOBA team, sure, but maybe you just want to have a good time on an idle clicker game. This mouse provides that. No matter your level of experience, you'll feel the difference in the 100-million-click lifespan of these crisp optical switches. 

Level up your gaming with the ROG Harpe Ace Extreme. Not sure if you're ready to get extreme? The ROG Harpe Ace is still a tremendous option. Don't just live with the mouse that came with your computer. Get the upgrade you deserve.
