Our Verdict

Corsair SABRE RGB PRO

EVGA X12

The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO and the EVGA X12 are similar gaming mice intended for FPS and other fast-paced games. They weigh nearly the same, and both have 8000Hz maximum polling rates. The Corsair has a right-handed shape and feels sturdier. It also has a more flexible cable, a wider CPI range, a more precisely adjustable CPI, and a more consistent sensor. On the other hand, the EVGA X12 has a symmetrical shape and a true ambidextrous design with a pair of side buttons on both sides.
