Heck yeah! HyperX gaming mice with custom 3D printable parts

When gaming mice don’t fit your hand or fail to perform as well as you hope, there’s one possible solution to try: personalization!

Of course, different gaming mice support different levels of personalization. There’s the crazy kind we saw in the Swiftpoint Z2, which goes as far as having buttons with multiple levels of actuation and haptic feedback, not to mention a chassis that converts into a joystick. Most mice, however, just let you do things like set DPI stages and assign commands. None of these are quite as good as a mouse that lets you 3D print and install your own parts, though.

HP has heard this call to the right kind of customization this year with its HyperX Pulsefire Saga branded gaming mice that, yes, let you download and print your own 3D parts. The pair consists of the wireless HyperX Pulsefire Saga Pro and the wired HyperX Pulsefire Saga, which were both announced at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.

They don’t look all that dissimilar to previous HyperX gaming mice, except that they have interchangeable magnetic chassis and swappable buttons. These can be customized from the get-go by swapping out parts, and each one comes with a pair of shells, button covers, and side buttons to do just that. But apart from those accessories, there aren’t a lot of ready-made accessories available to purchase.

That feels deliberate. It’s obvious HP wants you to get creative and 3D print your own parts… ones that are going to specifically work well for you and boost your performance. To that end, HP is making a bunch of downloadable 3D-printable parts for the Sagas publicly available online, which we expect will also open the floodgates for any gamers who want to mock up their own 3D part designs and share them.

That’s another appealing thing about these mice — the possible collaboration. They’re likely to spawn tons of discussion on gaming forums and among 3D printing enthusiasts about new mods and the benefits they will bring. And the focus being on 3D printing means the Sagas are a kind of jack-in-the-box, metaphorically speaking. You’ll benefit the most if you’re a keen tinkerer who likes to DIY your gaming setup, the way a cosplayer creates their own outfits.

PCWorld’s Michael Crider recently got the opportunity to get hands-on with these mice in NYC and that was his takeaway, too… that the implementation out of the box isn’t groundbreaking, but the possibilities for DIY personalization are huge. Mike also took a bunch of images that look tantalizing, to say the least.

HyperX Pulsefire Saga specs

As well as being highly customizable, the HyperX Pulsefire Saga gaming mice boast decent hardware specs.

Each one comes with a 26K HyperX sensor (up to 26,000 DPI) with a maximum tracking speed of 650 inches-per-second and 50G maximum acceleration. The main buttons sport optical switches for faster-than-mechanical actuation. The polling rates are also just right, too, with the wireless HyperX Pulsefire Saga Pro sporting a 4,000Hz rate while the wired version benefits from a higher 8,000Hz rate.

Both mice also have weights suitable for the quickest competitive play (69g for the wired model and 79g for the wireless). As expected, HyperX’s Ngenuity software provides the software support.

The HyperX Pulsefire Sagas go on sale this March, the wired Saga for $79.99 and the wireless Saga Pro for $119.99.
