Rating: 5 out of 5.

The M720 Triathlon is one of the best mice for the right price.

The humble computer mouse has gone through quite a journey. The mouse now is a slick and comfortable piece of hardware, but not all mice are built the same.

The Logitech M720 Triathlon Mouse is one of those mice that is well worth the money. Unlike other mice such as those sold at Walmart, this mouse is slightly above the budget price point of other mice.

My previous mouse, a smaller Logitech mouse, was not as comfortable to use.

Unlike the older mouse, this mouse has interesting and unique features in comparison.

One of the unique features to the M720 Triathlon Mouse is the button in the center of the mouse.

The middle button, located near the mouse wheel functions as a way of increasing scroll speed on the cursor. When the button is loose, the scroll speed is much faster on the browsers. Pressing it down when put the scroll speed back to a regular speed on the browser; such a feature is useful for when you are trying to get through long pages quickly on the computer.

The mouse also has three buttons on the left side of the mouse. These buttons can be mapped for any function in any program of your choice. Having these extra buttons make this mouse more useful for people who are looking for easier ways to multitask at the office or for some gamers looking for a budget mouse.

Gamers, specifically, may want a mouse that has more buttons on it. I find the M720 Triathlon mouse to be more useful in an office setting than in the gaming or video editing settings.

What is the price of the M720 Triathlon Mouse?

The Mouse is available for 34.99 at Walmart. It is pricer than some smaller, Logitech mice, but it is worth the additional investment due to its ergonomics and extra buttons.

My thoughts on the RTX 4050’s performance

I have played through Starfield enough to see what the performance is like on my PC. At first, I believe that I was slightly apprehensive about the performance on my PC, but it is clear that this game is going to work just well on my computer.     

My CPU is a i7-12650H running at 2.30 GHz.

I have 16GB RAM.

My laptop is a MSI model that has a Geforce RTX 4050. It is considered to be a mid-range video GPU, but it is one of the best workhorses that I have seen. In comparison with other computers that I have owned, the performance is outstanding. It isn’t the best video GPU, but it certainly gets the job done and allows for me to play the game. 

On High Settings, the game seems to run very well. It runs okaty at Ultra settings, but that seems to be limit for this computer. I am overclocking my graphics, so that’s probably why its running well as it is. 

Unlike other games like Fallout 4, which was notorious for its loading screens, Starfield seems like it has loading screens that don’t take alot of time on my system. Overall, I would say that the RTX 4050 is a great GPU for people who are looking for something that has teeth and a great price to it.
