Verdict

The Gigabyte Aivia Krypton is a high-performance wired gaming mouse featuring an advanced 8200 DPI laser sensor (Avago ADNS-9800), a 1000Hz polling rate, and 150 IPS tracking speed. Its standout characteristic is a revolutionary dual-chassis system that includes a ceramic 'speed' base and a Teflon 'control' base, allowing users to physically swap the mouse's movement dynamics. Main pros include a highly customisable weight system (110g to 149g) for adjusting the centre of gravity, an ambidextrous design suitable for both left and right-handed users, and 32KB of onboard memory via the GHOST engine to store up to 70 macros across five profiles. Notable cons include its relatively heavy weight compared to modern standards, side buttons that some users find slightly too soft or awkwardly positioned for larger hands, and software that can feel less intuitive than newer competitor suites.
