ATTACK SHARK V8 8K Wireless Gaming Mouse – PAW3950MAX

The ATTACK SHARK V8 is a lightweight, right-handed gaming mouse equipped with a PixArt PAW3950MAX sensor, tri-mode connectivity and up to 8000Hz polling in both wired and 2.4GHz wireless modes. Its supportive ergonomic shape is designed for medium to large hands, while the included SHARK 8K receiver eliminates the need to purchase a separate high-polling-rate dongle.

Lightweight Ergonomic Design

The ATTACK SHARK V8 combines a supportive right-handed shape with a lightweight 59g ±3g body. It is designed primarily for medium to large hands, providing more palm support than a low-profile symmetrical mouse without feeling unnecessarily heavy during fast movements.

A nano-metal ice coating gives the shell a smooth, cool-feeling surface and is intended to provide a more secure grip during longer gaming sessions. Inside, ATTACK SHARK uses its SHARK-RIDGE support structure to reinforce the shell while controlling overall weight.

The manufacturer currently lists Black and White versions. Only colours shown as selectable on this product page are available from Wah Gaming Store. Future colour options can be added without affecting the description or technical specifications.

PAW3950MAX Sensor Performance

At the centre of the V8 is the PixArt PAW3950MAX gaming sensor. It supports sensitivity up to 42,000 DPI, tracking speeds up to 750 IPS and a manufacturer-specified static scan rate of at least 20,000 FPS.

Six default DPI stages can be selected using the button beneath the mouse:

• 1,200 DPI – Red
• 2,400 DPI – Green
• 3,200 DPI – Blue
• 5,600 DPI – Yellow
• 8,000 DPI – Cyan
• 42,000 DPI – Purple

Further sensitivity and performance settings can be managed through ATTACK SHARK’s web-based configuration platform or downloadable V8 software.

8000Hz Wired and Wireless Polling

The V8 supports up to 8000Hz polling in both USB wired and 2.4GHz wireless modes. This allows the mouse to report movement to the computer more frequently when the higher polling settings are enabled.

Available wired and 2.4GHz polling-rate options are:

• 125Hz
• 250Hz
• 500Hz
• 1000Hz
• 2000Hz
• 4000Hz
• 8000Hz

The default polling rate is 1000Hz. Higher settings must be selected through the driver. Bluetooth mode operates at a fixed 235Hz and is better suited to normal work, browsing and casual use than competitive gaming.

Nordic 54L15 Controller and SHARK 8K Receiver

A Nordic 54L15 controller manages the mouse’s wireless communication and high polling-rate operation. ATTACK SHARK specifies click latency as low as 0.168ms under its own rated test conditions. Actual end-to-end latency will also depend on the selected polling rate, USB connection, computer hardware, display and game.

The included fin-shaped SHARK 8K receiver has indicator lights for:

• Wireless signal quality
• Approximate battery level
• Selected polling rate

This lets users check important connection information without repeatedly opening the software.

Tri-Mode Connectivity

The ATTACK SHARK V8 supports three connection methods:

• 2.4GHz wireless: Recommended for low-latency wireless gaming and polling rates up to 8000Hz.
• USB-C wired: Supports gaming and charging at the same time, with polling rates up to 8000Hz.
• Bluetooth 5.2: Provides a convenient receiver-free connection for compatible laptops, tablets and other devices.

Bluetooth polling is fixed at 235Hz. For competitive FPS gaming, the included 2.4GHz receiver or wired connection is the more suitable option.

Omron Optical Switches

The main left and right buttons use Omron optical switches rated by the manufacturer for 100 million clicks. The mouse also includes a clickable scroll wheel, forward and back side buttons, and a DPI button that doubles as the Bluetooth pairing control.

An F-Switch encoder is used for the scroll wheel and is rated in the official manual for two million cycles.

Software Customisation

The V8 supports web-based configuration and downloadable local software. Depending on operating-system and software support, users can adjust settings such as:

• DPI sensitivity
• Polling rate
• Button functions
• Mouse performance settings

Basic mouse connectivity may work on an operating system even when the full configuration software is unavailable. Advanced software compatibility should therefore be checked for the device being used.

Battery and Power Saving

The mouse contains a 500mAh rechargeable polymer battery. It enters light sleep after approximately 10 seconds of inactivity and deep sleep after approximately one minute. Moving the mouse or pressing a button wakes it again.

The mouse can be used while charging through its USB-C connection.

A specific hourly battery-runtime claim has not been included because the current official product page and manual do not provide a consistent figure. Runtime will also change significantly with polling rate, connection mode and usage.

The official manual specifies DC 5V/250mA charging and advises users not to charge the mouse with a fast-charging adapter.
