PC peripheral maker Logitech has announced what it calls the "world's fastest gaming mouse," the G402 Hyperion Fury Ultra-Fast FPS Gaming Mouse. The mouse, which will be available in August for $60, can track over 500 inches per second, and also features Logitech's own Delta Zero sensor technology to allow the mouse to have "unrivaled accuracy."

According to Logitech gaming general manager Ehtisham Rabbani, the G402 is the product of more than three years of research and development. "The Logitech G402 Hyperion Fury is the fastest gaming mouse, bar none, and the best mouse for high-speed FPS gameplay," he said in a statement.

Logitech says the G402 solves a common problem for advanced FPS players: their mouse can't accurately track as fast as they can move. The G402 can do this, Logitech says, thanks to its optical sensor technology, which features an accelerometer and a gyroscope.

In terms of DPI, the G402 can go from 4000 DPI to 240 DPI "in the blink of an eye," Logitech says.

The mouse is also customizable, featuring eight programmable buttons that you can use for macros and keystrokes. In addition, the mouse features a "consistent" one millisecond report rate, which means your commands will be realized "as quickly as possible," Logitech says.
