OCZ has been on a mission to undercut the competition in the peripheral gaming market and has released a pair of gaming mice this week towards that goal. The company says its new Behemoth and Eclipse mice are "built with the hardcore gamer in mind" looking for an inexpensive gaming solution.

"OCZ continues to break barriers in the cost for performance arena by offering high performance gaming products that deliver exceptional features, ergonomics, and performance at an aggressive price," commented Ryan Edwards, Director of Product Management for OCZ. "The new Behemoth and Eclipse gaming mice are no exception, offering world-class performance designed to provide the discerning gamer and enthusiast with a superior hands-on control experience whether playing first person shooters or getting creative with design applications."

Both the Eclipse and Behemoth come with a 2-way scrolling wheel, adjustable weight (up to 18g on the Eclipse and 24g on the Behemoth), 4-way changing LED display, black rubberized coating for a no-slip grip, 60IPS tracking speed, and 50G acceleration. The compact-style Eclipse sports an adjustable DPI up to 2400, whereas the larger Behemoth ramps up to 3200.

No word yet on price or availability.

HOW MANY PROGRAMMABLE BUTTONS DOES IT HAVE? Cover it with chrome, teflon, rubber, leather—I don't care. I recognize all of it as a cheap gimmick.  The weights are a gimmick. How many programmable buttons? How much of the CPU does it hog? These are the things that matter most.

Eh weights actually work for me. If you are worried about how much of your CPU a mouse will hog, you probably can't play the games that would require a gaming grade mouse.

Well, they gave us the DPI.  That's a start.  What good is a mouse with 14 buttons if it's limited to 800 DPI?

Please do a mouse roundup and let us know how these mice measure up to my Logitech G5 V2 mouse?

What I want to know guys is, is this a good time to upgrade my mouse from the G5? And if so what gaming mouse should I get that is by far the most awesome and worthy to replace my G5?

avatarI'm left handed, what I mean

I'm left handed, what I mean is that I write with my left hand. I can't even draw a straight line with my right hand. But I can't mouse with my left hand I have to use my right hand. I have to sleep on the left side of the bed but my politics is decidedly right wing. My right index finger is my trigger finger when I shoot and I aim with my right eye. But I'm still left handed. What does this make me?
