Product details

The SteelSeries Rival 5 is an ergonomic mouse with 9 buttons, including 5 side access keys, designed for the highest performance in any gaming genre. A custom sensor developed in collaboration with PixArt features true 1-to-1 tracking, 18,000 CPI, 400 IPS, 40G acceleration and tilt tracking to eliminate unwanted tracking during angled mouse movements, tilt slams and fast flicks. Each button is fully customizable and can take over the function of your most important hotkeys. The 5-button side- access layout provides a switch for quick and efficient in-game action without losing your grip.

Designed to withstand 80 million clicks without sacrificing quality, the improved dust- and water-resistant switches provide precise clicks even in the most demanding conditions, preventing accidental double-clicks and giving you the most accurate shooting you've ever experienced. Fast swipes and flicks are essential for ambitious gamers. Our all-new soft microfiber mesh cable provides less drag and a feather-light feel in situations where firing the decisive shot is critical.

Get the comfortable features of a premium mouse without the added weight thanks to the latest technology - lightning-fast response, durability, and performance so you can play for hours without restrictions. Take advantage of the many engine apps in SteelSeries GG that let you easily and intuitively adjust the 10-zone RGB lighting. Discord and other apps provide chat notifications, in-game event information, and more.
