This mouse uses Corsair’s iCUE software, which is reasonably well laid out and straightforward. It allows you to customize a range of expected settings, including CPI, polling rate, RGB lighting effects, and surface calibration.
That said, some options, like macro programming and button assignment, are somewhat less intuitive to use compared to similar software from other major manufacturers.
Additionally, much like similar software options from other major manufacturers, this software is the source of criticism from the broader community. While we didn’t experience any issues during the testing of this mouse, many users online criticize this software for requiring frequent updates and taking up disproportionate system resources, among other complaints. This software may be frustrating if you prefer more lightweight software options or no software at all.
