Supremely customisable ; Very comfortable ; Handy carry case for spare parts ; Suits wide range of game genres

Easy to accidentally press buttons ; Software bugs ; Occasionaly tracking blip

A spatter of mistakes showcase Roccat’s infancy in the market, but the Roccat Nyth is a true feat of customisability. The Nyth is versatile, comfortable, and performs well – all at a reasonable price.

Easily customizeable both physically and via software ; Comfortable fit in the had ; Very responsive and smooth polling rate

Button assignment has to be done in SWARM ; Higher price tag may scare some away

All in all this is the mouse that any serious competition gamer needs, with its practically limitless button customization options and the access to

There’s one problem yet to be discussed with the Nyth, and that’s the price. At $120, the Nyth is twice as expensive as competing mice like the Razer Naga.

– Very comfortable ; – 12,000 DPI laser sensor ; – 12 modular thumb buttons ; – Great software

– Price

I have been using the Nyth for a couple weeks now and I do really like it. If you are coming from a normal mouse it will take some time to get used to the thumb buttons, that feel and design is a big departure from normal designs. Once you are...

Customizable buttons and Swarm utility ; High DPI and polling rate ; Easy Shift [+] capability ; Can be comfortably used with all grip types ; 3D print more buttons or order customized ones

For right-handers only ; Dorsal Fin button still awkward to use ; Buttons tend to get stuck in the mouse when releasing from their positions ; A bit pricey

Other than those admittedly minor issues, the Roccat Nyth is a great choice for a mouse, no matter the genre. Roccat's Swarm utility complements the Roccat Nyth well, with its intuitive and easy to use menus. It's just a shame Roccat's Swarm Connect...

Highly configurable mice are nothing new in the gaming market, for example Razer’s Naga or Mad Catz RAT series, however they are always fun to play with. The Nyth is no different. Looking at the overall design first we are more than happy with the body...

many buttons, good shape

I can't place buttons like i want to

I love the interchangeability of the side buttons and the fact you can create custom profiles for different situations (games, etc).

My only gripe with this mouse is that the rgb light is a bit clunky and progresses through the colours in a staccato manner

The modular design lets you switch keys out in just a couple of minutes and lets you have just about any combination of keys. The switchable grip is also a nice feature as someone with weird shaped hands. Also (if you're interested in this kind of...

The software to program it is a bit confusing. There is a setting that lets you reduce the sensitivity of lifting the mouse so it doesn't fly around the screen if you adjust your position, that took a bit of time to find out about. Most of the...

Buttons. Lots and lots of buttons. Well made. I give the interface software 4.5/5, but that's partly because I got used to a Naga's way of numbering the keys. The interchangeable grips are sweet. The extra paddle in the middle takes some getting used...

All of these are not really cons, just personal things that took some getting used to relative to a Naga. Side buttons have little resistance compared to a Naga, and as such have little feedback and are easy to hit accidentally if you are converting to...
