Final Words
G.Skill are pretty new to the gaming scene
So it might take some time to build up a reputation. But having played with the G.Skill RIPJAWS MX780 RGB Laser Gaming Mouse for a few days… all I can say it's on my recommend
Bare-bones macro editor
No angle snapping
Acceleration
Or deceleration
Lift calculation isn't handled by wizard
Only two buttons per side
"Edgy" name and design
Flimsy thumb buttons
Mousefeet issues
Stiff
Thick
And braided cable
Outdated laser sensor
Side buttons can be hard to reach
Lowcontrast utility software user interface
Macros can not include mouse positioning information
During my internship, my manager and one of the test engineers laughed at the fact some people still wanted an "everything machine", or a solution to solve all the problems in one package. Rather, I was taught to develop software in a way to only solve wh...
Our first impression is that this mouse, while very stylish and unique in what this package offers, it is a bit on the small side. This will work out perfect for people with small hands or claw grip users with larger hands, but if you play with a relaxed...

In this test of 37 models there are only a few mice that left us with the thought 'you definitely do not want to purchase that one'. There are a lot of similarities, but there are also some models that stand out or simply perform slightly better than the...
Overall, I couldn't recommend the mouse personally. I found both the mouse and the accompanying software a frustrating experience, and the mouse lacks a few features and careful considerations that would otherwise make it an enjoyable gaming device. My fa...

Good gaminggrade laser sensor (Avago A9800), Great customisation with finger grips, palm rest height, Solid build quality, openplan design looks different, Weights and cable head protector are nice additions, Works for left and right handed gamers
Lighting is not true RGB – green looks like blue, yellows are tinged, DPI switch is too big and light, easily pressed by accident, Software could do with some usability tweaks.
The G.Skill MX780 is not the best mouse in the world, but for its price it is a great jack of all trades with some of the highest levels of customisation available. It is comfortable, accurate and great to game with over long periods. It does not have too...
Includes swappable side grips, Adjustable weight and height, Aggressive gamer design, Ambidextrous, RGB lighting
Unstable base, Not so great for claw grip, Temperamental software, Questionable mouse wheel integrity
As debuts go, G.SKILL had a big vision and have created a solid mouse packed with the many features gamers will love. You can adjust the weight, the height of the rear, the side grips and lighting effects. The metal frame houses tried and tested, good qua...

Excellent build quality, Exceptional sensor performance, Very competitive price, Customisable ergonomics, Left and Right hand suitable, Weight tuning system, RGB lighting,
Limited availability in UK, “G.Skill may be new to the peripherals market, but the MX780 is proof that they’ve got what it takes to take on the biggest names in the business. The MX780 is one of the best value and featured packed gaming mice on the market
PriceAt the time of writing, I struggled to find an accurate retail price in the UK, although I saw some as “out of stock” in the region of £40. I did, however, find the G.Skill Ripjaws MX780 mouse in stock at Newegg.com in the US, with a retail price of...
