Mad Shrimps: Dream Machines DM6 Holey Duo Gaming Mouse Review
After customizing the DM6 Holey Duo with our own DPI preferences, we went ahead and tried it in multiple game types such as Dark Alliance, The Evil Within, DOOM Eternal and Prodeus: the mouse felt responsive in both wired and wireless modes (used the wireless extender) and haven’t noted any erratic behavior from the sensor.
