Logitech announces G640 Large Cloth Gaming Mouse Pad

So, you think you are a member of the PC Master Race, eh? You've built your gaming PC, bought a ton of games on Steam, and have a sweet keyboard and mouse. All done, right? Wait. You forgot to buy a mouse pad. No, I'm not kidding -- many gamers still use gaming-grade mouse pads as a way to get an edge.

Today, Logitech announces the G640 Large Cloth Gaming Mouse Pad. The large surface promises better tracking, while reserving a space on your desk to keep clear of Mountain Dew and Bawls empties. Will you upgrade to a mouse pad experience?

"We heard from the Logitech G community and our Cloud9 CS:GO players that you wanted more space for wider swipes with your mouse; the G640 has a surface that provides improved tracking performance and optimal control designed specifically for low DPI gaming. It complements any Logitech G mouse sensor that you own, enabling you to be more accurate and perform even better than before. With a rubber base to stay in place during the most intense sessions, your wrist will be more comfortable during long gaming sessions", says Logitech.

The manufacturer further says, "heavy patterns and designs can interfere with sensor performance. G640 features a clean, consistent surface texture. This gives sensors better imagery for translating mouse movement into cursor movement, an improvement over inconsistent or dirty table and desk surfaces".

Do you really need a mouse pad? No, you do not need one. With that said, one such as the G640 can enable better tracking for your mouse's sensor and give you a slight edge. It could be particularly handy for LAN parties, as you may not know the conditions of the surfaces at the event.
