The hardware maker Cougar announced that it has added yet another peripheral to its gaming portfolio. The Surpassion is an optical gaming mouse that comes with an impressive range of features and a reasonable price tag.

The Surpassion has a PixArt PMW3330 Optical gaming sensor, RGB LED lighting and durable Omron switches with 50 million clicks guarantee. What makes it stand out from the rest is the wide variety of customization features, preferred by FPS gamers, and more specifically, the on-board LCD screen that enables players to have a full control over the mouse.

The Surpassion has a total of six buttons and supports up to 6 profiles. All settings are stored in the onboard memory. The LCD screen and the onboard control buttons are located on the bottom of the mouse. They allow precise adjustment of the DPI, polling rate, lift-off distance, angle snapping, and more. The mouse offers a max DPI of 7200, 30g acceleration, a tracking speed of 150ips, and 1000Hz polling rate.

The physical dimensions of the Surpassion also make it suitable for FPS gamers. It weighs 97 grams without the cable. The software does not offer a color adjustment option, so users have to choose between 13 backlight modes and cycle through them via the RGB LED preset button.

Apart from implementing a precise sensor, Cougar has also taken care of the grip. The Surpassion has textured rubber sides that allow better control even during the most intense fights.

Cougar Surpassion gaming mouse is now available at third-party retailers. It carries a $50 price tag but it is on sale for 20% off the regular price until January 14th.
