Mad Catz R.A.T. 8+
Mad Catz R.A.T. DWS
The Mad Catz R.A.T. 8+ and the Mad Catz R.A.T. DWS are more premium models in the R.A.T. lineup, but the DWS is the only wireless model. The 8+ is lighter, and it has a lower minimum CPI, and you can adjust the set CPI more precisely in increments of 50 instead of the DWS' 100. Also, its maximum polling rate is higher. On the other hand, you can use the DWS over a USB receiver or Bluetooth, and its click latency over the receiver is lower than the 8+'s wired latency. Both come with interchangeable parts to modify the feel and look of the mouse, making them suitable for all hand sizes regardless of grip type.
