Today we bring to you one of our 2014 Holiday Top Picks from SteelSeries its called the Rival Optical Gaming Mouse.

If you have that gamer in your life who just enjoy sitting back and playing a few games than this mouse is just right for him or her. Now I’m not a gamer like many people, I play a little, but nothing like my kids and other family members.

This mouse Rival Optical is said to be one of the greatest gaming mouses around due to all its cool functions. I’ve heard the tracking is by far the best and very solid. This mouse allows everyone a good rubber grip on both sides no matter if your hands are small or large.

The Rival Optical is very easy to use and set up software is also available on the SteelSeries website. There you will be able to configure your setup, change the polling rate, tracking sensitivity, and  your software settings will always save according to your selection, so you won’t have to worry about going to the start menu every time. If you wish to change anything with your setting you can do so with ease, just select what you wish to change, save and restart the mouse will save everything via flash memory inside the mouse. The mouse also glows, and can pulse with 18.6 million color combinations which is pretty cool.

I think this would make a great Christmas gift for your gaming buddy or son/daughter. With all the great features and functions I’m sure they will be impressed. Here’s more about the SteelSeries Rival Gaming Mouse
