Introduction
ROCCAT™ Kova – Pure
Performance Gaming Mouse
The Performance of a
Sports Car
It doesn’t matter whether you’re left or right handed, you use a PC or a
Mac, or you’re a fan of red, blue or green – the ROCCAT™ Kova satisfies
any wish; and it does all that without you needing to install
additional drivers. With this component of the ROCCAT™ SDMS, another
foundation stone has been laid for feature-packed, efficient gaming.
3200DPI PRO-OPTIC GAMING SENSOR
The optical gaming sensor with its resolution of up to 3200dpi delivers
amazingly precise tracking on almost any surface. The ROCCAT™ Kova is
especially effective when used in conjunction with the ROCCAT™ Sota
Gaming Mousepad which features an integrated metal film layer that
reflects light back to the optical sensor without distorting it thereby
providing optimum tracking. With up to 20Gs of acceleration, faultless
tracking is ensured even when rapid responses are called for.
DRIVERLESS CONFIGURATION
As part of the ROCCAT™ SDMS, the Kova has been fine-tuned for pure
performance. The mouse can be configured just by pressing simple button
combinations – and all without the need for drivers. For instance, the
dpi resolution can be increased from 400 to 800, 1600 or even 3200dpi
without needing to go through the tedious process of configuring the
software – and it’s just as easy to switch between right and left handed
mode. The 5(+2) mouse buttons come preset with the most important
functions for all the latest games and applications.
FULL COMPATABILITY
Whether you have a Windows® or Mac® PC, the
Kova is fully compatible with both systems – and even with Windows® 7
already. The motto is: plug in and let rip.
CUSTOMIZABLE LIGHTING
The ROCCAT™ Kova features a customizable
lighting system which can be adjusted to suit at the press of a button.
You decide which color the mouse should light up in. The discrete LEDs
on the sides of the mouse will cast an atmospheric aura on your desktop,
particularly when you set them to pulse slowly.
DPI-CHANGE FEEDBACK
The LEDs also indicate the dpi setting you’ve
selected with the help of the dpi-change feedback system. The default
resolution is 800dpi. By simultaneously pressing mouse buttons 5 and 7,
the mouse will flash green twice, indicating that the dpi setting has
now been changed to 1600dpi. Change the resolution again and the mouse
will flash blue twice and the resolution will increase to 3200dpi.
Following that, the dpi setting can be set to its lowest setting of
400dpi which the mouse confirms by flashing red twice. Press the buttons
again and the mouse will flash violet two times and return to its
preset resolution of 800dpi.
“Purity and simplicity are the two wings with which
man soars above earth and all temporary nature.”
Dr. Erik J. Dale, ROCCAT Scientist
