Our Verdict
Corsair M65 RGB Elite
MSI CLUTCH GM20 ELITE
The Corsair M65 RGB Elite is a better wired gaming mouse than the MSI CLUTCH GM20 ELITE. The Corsair feels sturdier and has mouse feet that glide more smoothly. It has two additional programmable buttons, including one extra side button on the left. It also has a wider CPI range, a much more precisely adjustable CPI, and significantly lower click latency. Its software is compatible with both Windows and macOS, while the software for the MSI is only compatible with Windows. On the other hand, the MSI includes a set of added weights.
