After Whoopty apparently found the ?best gaming mouse mat? ever, in the Mionix Alioth 400, future mouse pads are going to have a lot to live up to. The first one giving it a shot, is another cloth surface that boasts a high thickness and smooth surface; and a top notch name to boot. The Steelseries QCK Mass, we all know their credentials, but have they delivered again? Let's see.

SteelSeries have built a name for themselves over the years by producing some of the most popular gaming headsets and surfaces in the business. We have looked at a couple of their other accessories recently though, namely the 7G Keyboard and their World of Warcraft Mouse. Today we are going to take a look at another mouse from them, the SteelSeries Ikari Laser.

As an avid FPS-gamer both of these mice were tested by playing COD4, CS:S, and TF2 to mention a few. After getting used to the shape of the mouse everything went just as it was supposed to. I found myself getting the headshots I needed, even in difficult situations. Both of the mice tracked as they were supposed to and even all of the faster movements were tracked without any jitters.

The Siberia Full-Size Headset really is the original headset that was released by Icemat back in 2005. The only thing that has changed during these years is the logo, but why should you change a prefectly good product?

The SteelSeries 7G Gamer Keyboard arrived Technic3D. A Gamer Keyboard with advanced key combinations, PS/2 buffer-system, switch lifetime of 50 million operations, audio ports for headphone-out and microphone-in and two port USB hub. One of the best Gamer Keyboards in the moment? See this in the following Review.

In 2007 we saw Steelseries acquiring Icemat which brought the Siberia-brand to Steelseries. The Siberia Neckband headphones carry on the legacy from the Icemat Siberia headphones. Let us see if they're worthy.

For a lot of people, an all-in-one bundle from a popular brand is just what they need; it would minimize the research work for finding quality, and it would combine soundcard and speakers/headphones to further reduce consumer work. Enter the 5H v2 USB headset from SteelSeries. This headset not only comes backed by the name that so many people trust, SteelSeries, but also comes bundled with a USB soundcard for a cheap upgrade over onboard sound.

SteelSeries feels their competition is doing things wrong, but does that mean they are doing things right? After taking a look at their Ikari laser mouse, we can wholeheartedly say "yes"! The Ikari is catered for gamers, and it shows. Simply put? The Ikari is the best mouse we've ever laid our hands on.

From manufacturing gaming surfaces to headphones, keyboards to selling security software, SteelSeries is responsible for contributing to what they call "professional gaming gear". With the hobby of gaming evolving into a profession, the demand for mousing surfaces has never been stronger. People from all ages, backgrounds, and cultures meet online to duke it out - whether it be a game like World of Warcraft, or Counter-Strike: Source. As a once-hardcore gamer - not necessarily a good one, but an addicted one, I know how it felt like to be on top - or somewhat near there, anyway. When I was given such a product to review, I threw my discipline out the door and reinstalled Counter-Strike: Source, and thus decided it was the best choice in order to give us an overall look at the SteelSeries SP. I know that mousepads are beneficial in everyday use as well, but here's an excuse I can't let go.

The SteelSeries Ikari Optical gaming mouse is aimed at hardcore FPS gamers who want the best possible tracking. The optical version of the Ikari mouse looks just like its laser brother, but without the LCD display that indicates which profile is being used.

Optical was around first; and has been since the 1980s. It's older than most people realize, but it's certainly come a long way. Optical sensors are in most modern mice that use LEDs to illuminate the patch of surface under the optical sensor; this creates a snap shot of the surface and gets compared to the last snap shot to determine how far the mouse has moved (if at all). Quite simply, if you increase the resolution of the optical sensor then you get greater accuracy. But this requires more powerful on-board image processor chips to do the grunt work of translating image differences into X and Y movement. Laser Diodes came into use in 2004 for mice which were paired with sensors that have a much more enhanced resolution. This allowed the mouse to detect even more subtle changes of position, and therefore greater accuracy.

All through testing I experienced nothing but comfort and that neat feeling only quality can give you. Like all good things though it comes at a price and the Ikari Laser is certainly not cheap coming in at around US$65. This is certainly not the type of product your average home user should be looking at, unless you have money to throw away, but for the enthusiast and or Gamer it's a worthwhile investment.

The SteelSeries Ikari Series mice, just being released not too long ago, are a perfect gaming addition for anyone looking to improve their gaming. With 15 months of research and development SteelSeries has been able to closely perfect the art of gaming mice for FPS as well as MMO/RTS gamers. This mouse offers up to 3,200 CPI and manual CPI adjustments for the perfect sensitivity. Wondering what CPI means? Check out the review to this as well as many other features of the Ikari Laser mouse.

Gaming mice are getting serious... what once was marketed as a niche novelty item is now taken seriously as professional sports equipment. Most gaming mice have a core set of common features that PC gamers look for. These rodents usually feature notched scroll wheels, high DPI, on-the-fly sensitivity changes, macro ability, and onboard memory just to start. Most manufacturers seem to think that more features translates into a better gaming mouse, but this isn't true at all. Having too much granularity or complicated features can slow down the PC gamer when timing is absolutely critical. To this end, SteelSeries enters the professional gaming mouse arena with their Ikari Laser Professional Gaming Mouse. Instead of fancy lights and other gimicks, the Ikari focuses on build quality and no-nonsense features.

The SteelSeries Ikari Laser mouse is the first ever mouse to be designed by legendary mouse pad maker SteelSeries. The mouse features a 3200 DPI laser sensor and boasts a lift-off distance of only 1.8 mm. Coupled with some never before seen features this mouse is clearly a winner.
