Product identity

The MSI Clutch GM08 is a wired gaming mouse built around a PixArt PAW-3519 optical sensor with a maximum resolution of 4200 DPI. It features a symmetrical shape suited to left- or right-handed users and includes six programmable buttons. Three adjustable weights let you tune the mass up to 139 grams. Red LED lighting provides a single-colour accent.

Sensor and polling limits

The PAW-3519 sensor tops out at 4200 DPI, so the mouse cannot reach the higher sensitivities found on models using 16000 or 20000 DPI sensors. Polling rate is fixed at 1000 Hz with no lower-step adjustment. The Huano switches are rated for 10 million clicks, which is lower than the 20 million or 60 million ratings on other MSI mice. There is no RGB or Mystic Light control, only red illumination.

Deciding specification

If you need a sensor that exceeds 4200 DPI, adjustable RGB lighting, or switches rated beyond 10 million clicks, this model will not meet those requirements. It is intended for users who want a straightforward ambidextrous mouse with weight tuning and a single-colour LED at this DPI ceiling.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the 100 and 4,200 DPI settings on this mouse?

The GM08 uses a PixArt PAW-3519 optical sensor with an adjustable range of 100 to 4,200 DPI. Start low for precise aiming in shooters, then raise it in steps until cursor speed feels natural for your screen resolution and desk space.

What does the 4,200 DPI maximum actually deliver during gameplay?

At 4,200 DPI the sensor counts 4,200 steps per inch of movement, so small hand motions move the cursor across large or multiple monitors without lifting the mouse.

Does the gold-plated USB connector limit the polling rate in any way?

The wired USB connection runs at a fixed 1,000 Hz polling rate, giving a 1 ms report interval regardless of the gold-plated connector.
