The Vengeance line of high-performance keyboard and mouse products for PC gamers incorporates aluminum structures for strength and durability.
Components manufacturer Corsair announced a new line of Vengeance PC gaming peripherals this week. The products will hit the channel in October 2011.
Aimed at enthusiasts and system builders in need of high-performance hardware, the line includes four new HID products: The Vengeance K60 and Vengeance K90 gaming keyboards and the Vengeance M60 and Vengeance M90 gaming mice. A key feature of all four of these new Vengeance Series products is the use of an aluminum structure to provide strength and durability.
“Corsair has built a reputation for developing innovative products that focus on the unique needs of our customers,” says Corsair president and CEO Andy Paul. “Our new Vengeance keyboards and mice follow in that tradition. PC gamers will love their gorgeous design and attention to the smallest details, like the intelligently designed button layout on our mice or the specially shaped WASD keycaps on our keyboard.”
The Vengeance K60 gaming keyboard and the Vengeance M60 laser gaming mouse are designed for PC Gamers who specialize in First-Person Shooters (FPS). The Vengeance K60 keyboard features the predictable linear response and light touch of Cherry MX Red mechanical key switches for more agile movement and faster multi-taps. The contoured left-wrist rest plus shaped and textured WASD key caps are designed to increase comfort, even during extended gaming sessions. The K60 uses an advanced key matrix design that delivers complete anti-ghosting so no keystrokes are missed. Unlike other USB gaming keyboards that are limited to the USB-standard 6-key rollover, the K60 features a 20-key rollover and a fast reporting rate.
The Vengeance M60 mouse features an enthusiast-grade Avago 5700 DPI sensor with on-the-fly resolution switching, an aluminum unibody design with adjustable center of gravity, programmable lift detection, a high-mass scroll wheel, and PTFE glide pads. A key innovation of the M60 mouse is the Sniper button, enabling an instant toggle from fast movement, high DPI-resolution mode down to a high-precision mode for more accurate aiming.
The Vengeance K90 gaming keyboard and M90 laser gaming mouse are optimized to meet the unique needs of MMO and RTS gaming. The Vengeance K90 keyboard also features Cherry MX Red key switches, full anti-ghosting, 20-key rollover, 1ms reporting rate, and each key is individually backlit with a cool blue LED that can be adjusted to three different levels of intensity. The K90 also includes 18 dedicated macro keys that can be programmed either through software or on the fly.
The Vengeance M90 gaming mouse features 15 fully programmable buttons, arranged and tuned for intuitive operation without compromising grip, and on-board flash memory that enables users to save macros in up to six profiles that can be switched on-the-fly. The intuitive Windows-based Vengeance software utility enables users to manage macro keys, on-board profiles, and sensor settings.
The Vengeance K90 gaming keyboard has an MSRP of $129. The K60’s MSRP is $109. The Vengeance M90 gaming mouse has an MSRP of $99, and the M60 asks $79.
