Precise 7200 DPI Optical Sensor

The FORGE GM300 uses an optical gaming sensor capable of reaching up to 7200 DPI.

This provides adjustable sensitivity for different games and usage scenarios, from slower controlled cursor movement to faster high-sensitivity gaming.

MSI officially specifies four DPI presets:

• 1200 DPI
• 2400 DPI
• 4800 DPI
• 7200 DPI

A dedicated DPI button allows users to cycle between these sensitivity levels.

Adjustable DPI

The dedicated DPI control allows sensitivity to be changed directly from the mouse.

This can be useful when switching between:

• FPS Gaming
• MOBA Games
• Strategy Games
• General Desktop Use
• Browsing
• Different Monitor Resolutions

No software adjustment is required simply to cycle through the four predefined DPI levels.

7-Button Design

MSI officially specifies the FORGE GM300 with 7 buttons.

The physical controls include the standard left/right buttons, scroll-wheel control, side controls, and dedicated adjustment controls for DPI and lighting functionality.

The two side buttons default to common forward/back navigation functions.

Durable Micro Switches

The main buttons use micro switches rated for more than 10 million clicks.

This durability makes the GM300 suitable for extended gaming sessions as well as everyday PC use.

5-Mode RGB Lighting

The FORGE GM300 features integrated RGB LED lighting with five predefined lighting modes.

The lighting provides additional visual customization for gaming setups without being the mouse's primary performance feature.

The lighting system includes effects around the mouse and MSI Dragon Shield illumination.

DPI Color Indication

The Dragon Shield LED can also indicate the selected DPI level using different colors:

• 1200 DPI: Blue
• 2400 DPI: Pink
• 4800 DPI: Red
• 7200 DPI: Purple

This provides a quick visual indication of the current sensitivity setting.

Symmetrical Design

The FORGE GM300 uses a symmetrical body shape.

MSI specifically describes the design as suitable for:

• Palm Grip
• Claw Grip
• Left-Handed Users

This gives the mouse a versatile shape for different gaming preferences.

Wired USB Connection

The GM300 uses a standard USB 2.0 wired interface.

Connectivity

• Connection Type: Wired
• Interface: USB 2.0
• Cable Length: 1.5m
• Bluetooth: No
• 2.4GHz Wireless: No
• Battery Required: No

The wired design eliminates battery charging and wireless pairing requirements.

Specifications

MSI's official technical specifications confirm the 7200 DPI optical sensor, seven buttons, 5-mode RGB, 10-million-click switches, 1.5m cable, dimensions, and 118g product weight.

Quick Product Fields

Important Weight Note

Although some retail titles may describe the FORGE GM300 as a “lightweight gaming mouse,” MSI's official specification lists the mouse itself at 118g.

For accurate catalog copy, it is better to use:

MSI FORGE GM300 Wired Gaming Mouse

rather than emphasizing “lightweight.”

Important DPI Note

The GM300 supports a maximum sensitivity of 7200 DPI, with four predefined levels:

1200 / 2400 / 4800 / 7200 DPI

It should not be advertised as having continuously adjustable DPI across every value unless additional software functionality for that capability is specifically confirmed.

Important RGB Note

The FORGE GM300 does feature RGB lighting, but MSI describes it specifically as 5-mode RGB with predefined effects.

It should therefore not automatically be described as per-zone or fully software-programmable RGB unless that functionality is separately verified.

Compatibility

MSI officially specifies operating-system support as:

• Windows 10 and Above

The mouse uses a standard USB 2.0 connection.

Important Note – Open Sealed

This product is listed as Open Sealed, meaning the original packaging has been opened.
