Our Verdict

Razer DeathAdder V2

MSI CLUTCH GM20 ELITE

The Razer DeathAdder V2 is a better wired gaming mouse than the MSI CLUTCH GM20 ELITE. The Razer is lighter and has a more flexible cable. It also has mouse feet that glide more smoothly, a much wider CPI range, a more precisely adjustable CPI, a lower click latency, and a much lower click latency. You can also set a HyperShift button which enables a second layer of commands, and you can set multiple profiles using the customization software. At the same time, the MSI only has one configurable profile. On the other hand, the MSI has a thumb rest and additional weights to adjust the weight distribution.
