So other than for aesthetics, do you require a mousepad alongside your gaming rig? Well in short, yes you probably do. Mousepads help to stop the small plastic/rubber feet on the underside of the mouse from wearing out when constantly dragging it across your desk. Without a pad, the area you regularly use your mouse on can also become marked and deteriorate through the friction generated between the mouse and the worktop ...

Introducing the ROCCAT Titan Switch – Tactile and Fast!

Hamburg, 31st May 2018 - ROCCAT presents the Titan Switch Tactile, the first mechanical switch designed in-house in cooperation with TTC, a leading manufacturer in its field.
