Description:

The SteelSeries Rival 3 Gen 2 combines lightweight design with professional-grade durability, making it an ideal choice for gamers seeking speed and reliability. Equipped with the TrueMove Core sensor, this mouse guarantees true 1-to-1 tracking so every movement is translated instantly on screen. The mechanical switches are rated for 60 million clicks, ensuring consistent feedback without degradation over time. With three-zone dynamic RGB lighting, you can customize your setup to match your style, while the super mesh paracord cable provides a snag-free experience. Weighing only 77 grams, this right-hand symmetrical mouse is built in Denmark and optimized for quick flicks and precise aiming.

Designed with speed in mind, the Rival 3 Gen 2 allows you to counter enemies with split-second precision. The TrueMove Core sensor supports up to 8500 DPI, delivering true 1-to-1 tracking that lands every skill shot without acceleration or smoothing issues. Whether you are gliding through quickswipes or executing precise flicks, the sensor keeps pace with your hand movements perfectly.

Durability is a core pillar of this gaming mouse, featuring mechanical switches tested to withstand up to 60 million clicks. This ensures that even on your 60 millionth press, the feedback remains crisp and responsive without any mushiness or slowdown. The construction utilizes an extra-strong polymer alongside a split-trigger click design, meaning both left and right buttons stay fast and consistent for years of heavy use.

Aesthetics meet functionality with three-zone dynamic RGB lighting that illuminates your desk and scoreboard instantly. You can customize the lighting effects to reflect your team colors or personal style. The mouse also features upgraded 100% PTFE feet, providing effortless glide across most surfaces while offering on-point stopping power when you need to halt movement quickly.

The cable design eliminates snags and drag thanks to the super mesh paracord construction, ensuring smooth mouse movement regardless of how fast or erratic your actions become. Settings for sensitivity, polling rate, and button mappings automatically save to onboard memory via SteelSeries GG software, so your preferences travel with you between different setups.

The symmetrical design favors gamers who prefer a claw or fingertip grip style. While palm grip is possible, users seeking maximum comfort in that category might explore other models like the Rival 5 or Aerox 5 family. Default DPI levels are indicated by distinct colors: 400 DPI shows magenta, 800 is cyan, 1600 is green, 2400 is yellow, and 3200 is red.

If you need replacement feet for your mouse, genuine 100% PTFE options are available through the accessories store. The USB cable is a fixed non-detachable design, ensuring a secure connection without the risk of accidental unplugging during intense gameplay. This product carries part number 62516 and is compatible with Windows operating systems requiring SteelSeries GG software version for Windows 10 or later.

The Rival 3 Gen 2 features a symmetrical shape that supports both claw and fingertip grip styles, accommodating six programmable buttons.
