Our Verdict
Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed
ASUS ROG Chakram
The Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed is better overall for FPS gaming than the ASUS ROG Chakram, but the ASUS is a better option if you like personalizing your mouse. The Razer has more programmable buttons, and the CPI can be adjusted more precisely. It also weighs a bit less, though it's still heavy. On the other hand, the ASUS has a lower lift-off distance, and it has RGB lighting. It has a unique, programmable joystick on its left side, and it offers more personalization, letting you swap out the click switches and customize the RGB logo with your own design.
