CES 2022 is on the horizon and storage manufacturer ADTA has already turned a few heads with their concept XPG Vault gaming mouse.
While it might looks decidedly similar to the same desktop companion PC gamers have had at their side for years, this RGB laden concept from ADATA’s gaming brand fits together portable storage and the plain old mouse. The design for this XPG Vault gaming mouse started popping up as ADATA revealed its full lineup for CES 2022, although the announcement doesn’t come with a lot of details. What appears to be an otherwise standard RGB enhanced gaming mouse comes with 5 buttons, which we’d assume are programmable, as well as a full 1TB capacity for internal SSD’s. The advertised USB C connection seems appropriate and would suggest that this will be a wired affair, at least for data transfer that peaks at around 985MB/s.
The mock-up isn’t a fully-fledged product so don’t expect it to hit shelves yet, however interesting it actually looks. Despite turning heads with an idea that has come and gone before, ADATA is just as focused on their latest PCIe Gen5x 4 SSDs and DDR5 RAM for CES 2022. Alongside a peek at the new concept mouse, anybody brave enough to venture to CES 2022 will get a look at the XPG Lancer RGB DDR5 and Caster RGB DDR5 chips, which offer performance up to 6000 MT/s and 7000 MT/s respectively and maybe outs the XPG designers as Fate fans. This should sit nicely alongside the new Project Nighthawk and Project Blackbird controller sets that will allow data transfer speeds of 14/12 GB/s and 14/10 GB/s too. That’s hardly even the surface of what we expect to see from ADATA, but we’d love to get the full specs on the XPG Vault gaming mouse hardware if ADATA unveils them when CES 2022 opens in Vegas next year. Read about the full array of ADATA devices in the official announcement.
