Finally, if you've lost sleep thinking laser mice had reached their sensitivity apex at 4,000dpi, take heart. Logitech's new G9x has boldly crossed the barrier into heretofore unexplored 5,000dpi territory. Alarmingly, the press release mentions no combustion-threshold data, so we can't comment as to whether or not the G9x will burn through your mouse pad and set fire to the desk underneath.
In all seriousness, we're sure some gamer might value ridiculously high mouse dpi settings, but even 2,000dpi stretches the bounds of usability, especially for non-FPS gamers.
Even if its sensor offers more horsepower than you'll need (at its highest setting, at least), you may value the G9x's other features more.
From its appearance and nomenclature, Logitech's new gaming mouse appears to be almost identical to the G9 Laser Mouse from last year. The G9x boasts a similar customisable grip and weighting system.
We found those features clunky in the G9, but you might also like that the G9x has customisable LED lighting, a feature Logitech seems to be extending across its G-Series product line.
The G9x debuts in April, for a suggested price of $99 (£65).
