The ROG (Republic of Gamers) Spatha is the latest gaming mouse from Asus. It comes with a detailed Mayan-style grip on the left-hand side next to six programmable thumb buttons, making it ideal for use in MMOs and MOBAs. Overall, the mouse has 12 buttons, which can be customised via the ROG Armoury software. That’s only touching the surface with regards to the application, as it also allows you to customise button response, polling rate, acceleration, angle snapping and more, making it perfect for pro gamers. The magnesium alloy-constructed Spatha offers extremely high sensitivity, thanks to the use of an 8200 DPI laser sensor coupled with a DPI switch. As well as this, the mouse offers surface calibration, providing you with the best performance for the surface it’s being used on. This combination lets you switch between high and low sensitivity with a single click, while giving you finer control when aiming with a precise weapon such as a sniper rifle. If that’s not impressive enough for you, then maybe this is: the ROG Spatha is both wired and wireless, depending on your personal preference. You can use the supplied Micro-USB cable to connect the mouse to your PC, or you can connect the receiver/charging station and use it wirelessly until it requires a charge. This gives gamers the freedom to play how they like without having to make any compromises.

Along with the above features, it comes with standard LED customisation that lets you change not only the colour of the logo on the mouse and scroll wheel, but also the light that leaks out between the thumb buttons along the left-hand side of the mouse.
