What customers say
The Endgame Gear OP1 8k v2 is celebrated primarily for its elite performance, centered on the 8000Hz polling rate, which delivers exceptionally smooth responsiveness for competitive FPS players. Users highly praise the lightweight, symmetrical design, noting it perfectly supports precise claw and fingertip grips, feeling like a natural extension of the hand. Build quality is considered robust despite the low weight, with appreciated upgrades to the cable and skates. The main trade offs involve the necessary wired connection for stable 8k performance and the significant CPU resources required to utilize the high polling rate. While technically masterful, this positions the mouse as a niche tool for high-end setups rather than a mass market option.
Know before you buy
No, this mouse is specifically engineered for a claw grip. Its shape and dimensions are optimized for right-handed claw grip users, so those who prefer a full palm grip may find the design uncomfortable.
The hot-swappable main buttons allow you to easily replace the switches without soldering. This gives you the flexibility to experiment with different switch feels or replace them if they wear out over time.
Yes, utilizing an 8000 Hz polling rate places a higher demand on your CPU compared to standard 1000 Hz mice. To experience the benefits of minimal latency, ensure your computer hardware can handle the increased data processing requirements.
Yes, the OP1 8K v2 features six programmable buttons. You can use the dedicated software to remap these buttons and save your preferences directly to the mouse's on-board memory.
The Flex Cord 5.0 is designed to be extremely lightweight and flexible, minimizing drag so it feels nearly as unrestricted as a wireless mouse. Because it is a wired connection, you also benefit from zero battery anxiety and the consistent performance of an 8000 Hz polling rate.
The mouse is plug-and-play for basic functionality, but you will need to download the software if you want to customize DPI settings, polling rates, or button assignments. Once configured, you can save these settings to the on-board memory.
