Corsair M65 Pro RGB Gaming Mouse Review

CUE Software and Lighting
If you plug in the mouse it will work no problem at all, but if you want to fully customize it you will need to download Corsair CUE software, which you can get here. Once you download and install the software it will likely update the firmware on the mouse. Once you open CUE up you can start programming the mouse. All eight buttons on the mouse are programmable, so you change them to what you want. The default profile is loaded automatically, but you can create your own profile as well.

Clicking over to the Lighting tab there are two programmable RGB LED zones. Zone one is the back part of the mouse where the Corsair logo is and zone two is the front part of the mouse where the scroll wheel is. You can select between a solid color, rainbow, color shift and color pulse modes. Since this is an RGB mouse you have 16.8 million colors to choose from!

Under performance and DPI you can set the 5 different DPI modes as well as the Sniper button DPI. On each DPI level you can also select a corresponding color. This color will be displayed on the top part of the mouse in between the up and down buttons. You can also set the pointer speed here as well.

At the top under the Actions tab and well as the Lighting tab you can create new actions / macros as well as import and export them.

Finally under the settings tab we can see all of the information on our mouse as we do have the ability to change the polling rate. If you click on the surface calibration a window pops up that asks you to click and drag an icon in circular motions. This will fully calibrate the mouse to your surface.

Moving on to the lighting the RGB LEDs look pretty good. Again you have lights on the palm rest under the Corsair logo, at the front under the scroll wheel and the indication LED on the top of the mouse.
