is anyone interested in a new wireless mouse - would you consider the Dark Core RGB Pro?
@MichaelChan0308 4 жыл бұрын
I have the Logitech G603 and I am amazed by its battery life. It's not in the same league as this but still. The battery life of this Dark Core RGB Pro seems to be dismal, at only 36 hours with lighting off ...

Yes I got my for £64.99 because the old one was replaced under warranty. Second their was a double click problem when remapping volume to any button and now Corsair have fixed it with the latest firmware update. I hope in future Corsair add Scroll Wheel Up & Down to ACTIONS. Logitech also don't have this feature. You can only change the middle click on Corsair and on Logitech change Tilt and Middle Click. ROCCAT and Razer you can change any Scroll Wheel Click so it's time Corsair add this please. Thanks.

Got this mouse for my HTPC setup. The mouse is quite comfortable and feels great to use. It encourages a palm grip overall but other styles work too. The sensor out the box is twitchy but after a calibration feels perfect so do this for your desired surface because I noticed the difference immediately. Very happy with it so far, but still sticking to my Logitech G900 as my daily driver for my main PC.

I just bought the SE model of this dark core pro, I have to say I love it. I've had a trusty razer mouse for a few years and i've been looking to clean up my build and go wireless. This is my 3rd mouse and after 1 day of use I will be keeping it. I have larger hands (im 6'2") and it helps with the right side plate for grip. The wireless is extremely good so far, it felt like I just plugged it in like any normal wired mouse, its smooth no jutters or anything so far. The RGB looks awesome with the different modes. I really dont have any complaints about it, the only thing you need to do is see if it fits your hand. I have not tried the wireless charging yet though.

First, make sure the wireless dongle is connected to the front of the pc,( if using a desktop). Next look under the mouse, there should be a button that can slide left and right. The middle is for the wired connection and the left is for the wireless dongle. The right is for Bluetooth, if your pc has Bluetooth you can use it. Also to pair the mouse to the dongle it has to be connected via the usb c cable, other wise it won’t pair. It should be in the settings for Corsair I-Cue Software.

Bought the Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro, the cable to use it both as a wired mouse and to charge it turned it on/off constantly and eventually stopped charging it all together (within a year - about 7-8 months before it was unusable). I had the EXACT SAME ISSUE with a Corsair Wireless headset, the cable constantly turned the headset on/off and eventually stopped charging. Can you imagine anything more annoying? Do not bother with Corsair for anything hybrid wired/wireless. Their K70 Keyboards are excellent though.

I have the Dark Core RGB Pro. I love it especially the ring/pinky finger rest but it has one major flaw. the DPI adjust button is right next to the left-click button. the DPI button is huge for something that I usually adjust once and leave it at that setting. I frequently press it by accident mid-game. You can only imagine how frustrating it is when the DPI increases unknowingly and the mouse jets all over the place. I quickly adjust it back but that is a few seconds afterwards. Alot can happen in a few seconds.

Never owned that mouse but HOW is iCUE bad. I have owned so many Corsair products over the years and most of my PC components and peripherals are from them and I use Corsair iCUE for them and have no major issues with iCUE. I have only ever had one software problem which was due to a problem with Windows and not iCUE which was with my Corsair Void Wireless Pro RGB. I always have the surround sound turned on and was noticing that after an iCUE update the headset sounded trash and after a while of troubleshooting found out that the problem was a new feature Microsoft added to Windows which supposedly adds spacial surround sound to headsets and headphones which did NOT sound like surround sound was on at all and just sounded so bland it was turned on by default I had to go in to Windows audio settings and disable it which fixed the issue.

Spend your money to a company that will value your return on your money. Corsair has been gouged for profit. These products DO NOT last. Google dark core not charging if you dont believe me. Countless threads, most unresolved with a shit out of luck message or forced to pay to return it. My biggest regret in my pc setup is using corsair in modern day.
