The Vengeance K60 first of all, is a mechanical keyboard (unlike Logitech's G-series).Corsair decided that since they were going to do mechanical that they would use the best parts available and they opted for the Cherry Red switch which is one of the rarest types of mechanical switches but also one of the most sensitive as well.




Corsair is launching two gaming mice to match along with their gaming keyboards. These will be the aptly named M60 and M90 mice. The Vengeance M60 will feature an ultra high resolution Avago 5670 DPI laser sensor with on-the-fly resolution adjustments and an aluminum unibody design, adjustable center of gravity, programmable lift detection, high-mass scroll wheel and PTFE low resistance glide pads. This is all atop having a 1ms or 1000Hz pollint rate which is honestly expected if this is to be considered an FPS mouse. The M60, since it is geared towards FPS features a Sniper button which allows the user to quickly toggle from high DPI resolution to a high precision mode for more accurate aim.



The Corsair M90 takes many of its cues from the M60, but once again it adds an MMO/RTS angle that makes it a little more attractive for those users. The M90 uses the same sensor and many other features, but the added feature to the M90 is the addition of 15 fully programmable buttons which are managed by Corsair's Vengeance utility which allows you to control on-board profiles and sensor settings.



The top of their line of headphones is perched atop by the Vengeance 1500 which features a USB connection and delivers 7.1 and 5.1 Dolby surround sound for headphones. The 1500 is driven by high-performance 50mm drivers which ensure a full range of highs, mids, and lows. They are also circumaural which means that they have a closed back and fully enclose your ear. A nice feature with these headphones is that they also allow you to replace the memory foam ear pads in the event that they get dirty or worn over time.



The Vengeance 1100, which is the light-weight wrap around headset which is not circumaural but rather sits atop your ear and provides an open environment for your ears. It also features 40mm drivers instead of the 50mm on the 1500 and 1300 models which expectedly will deliver more powerful audio. We would consider the Vengeance 1100 to be more for the casual gamer, especially considering the very mainstream price of $39.

G keys on a Corsair keyboard? Seems like they took the idea from Logitech.

Also what's with companies making really weird and odd looking mice?

Haters dont really hate you, they hate themselves because you're a reflection of what they wish to be.
