OCZ is best known as one of the leading makers of memory modules on the market. What you probably don't know is that OCZ also designs peripherals for gamers. How did OCZ end up making gaming mice? It looks like the company wants to vary its product line.

OCZ's first mouse is known as the Equalizer Laser Mouse, a device which is specifically designed for demanding gamers. Equalizer stands out as having unique features, a high performance engine, and extra competitive edge for
professional gamers.

Taking a closer look, we find out that Equalizer provides six DPI sensitivity levels (between 400-2500) and allows gamers to seamlessly transition between each setting in the midst of a battle with a specially designed button. The Equalizer's scroll wheel displays a different color LED for each DPI setting to provide instant visual confirmation of the chosen sensitivity level. The design looks peculiarly similar to A4Tech's X7 gaming mice series. However, OCZ delivers improved 2500 DPI resolutions, which should come in handy for First Person Shooter and RTS gamers.

In addition, the Equalizer mouse features an innovative orange "Triple Threat" button, which allows gamers to fire three times with just one click making it easier than ever to hit the target. Moreover, the ingenious Triple Threat button turns double-click operations, such as opening files and applications, into just one-touch commands.

Equalizer's ergonomic design comes with a comfortable, no-slip grip and the always useful back and forward lateral buttons. OCZ has prepared Desktop and Mobile versions for their Equalizer mouse, depending on the user's preference for portability and size. The mouse includes a gold plated USB connector and benefits from a 6 year warranty. As an added bonus, each mouse includes OCZ Equalware software which provides a complete keyboard simulation interface for total customization of your favorite gaming commands.
