I hate their mouse feet personally I seem to wear them out much quicker and they leave stuff all over my mousepads.

 

So far mine has held up pretty well. I hope that doesn't happen to mine!

Mine usually go in a couple months it that depending on which hard pad I use. The 3rd party replacement feet last much longer.

Okay guys, I refunded my Corsair M95 (I got it) because the G700s was availible. Should I get it? Also, how about the Razer Naga 2012 or should I wait until they have the Razer Naga 2014 in stock?

No because I don't know anything about it. Is it any good? I know it's legendary but it doesn't have much buttons. Beside. They have at least 2.

I have never used it myself.

I don;t know about the legendary part, but I have the first gen G9, it's still in awesome shape and works like the very first day I'd gotten it. I don't care about sensor type used and such, to me, this is a near perfect mouse. I'm not pulling your leg, this is an awesome mouse, though the Razer/optical fanboys would disagree. I had gotten this mouse 5-6 years back, it's still one of my fave gaming mice....

I'm using it on my 2nd rig, it handles all the FPS games I've thrown at it with ease. Bear in mind, I've been using Laser mice for a while now, so I'm kind of used to it.....below is a pic of my other mice. Currently using the Roccat Kond XTD (the one on the left) as my main gaming rig ouse of choice. Actually, a good cheap mouse to get, uses optical instead of laser, is the one on the right, Cooler Master Xornet. I use it on my 3rd rig and I have no issue with my kill ratios in UT3 and Quake 3 Arena. The mouse in the middle, Thermaltake Level 10M, has been mothballed. I'm keeping it as a spare mouse should I have to replace or RMA my other mice.

Okay, I'll think about it but a lot of mice are also the same price or a tad bit more like the Naga, Orochi e.t.c

How did you change the color of the G9x? And will it work with my Windows 8?Like do I need to use the disc or the online installer?  and will it last long?

Just popping my head in here to say if I had to get a laser mouse, it'd be the G9x.

ok so i though i used higher than 6400 but I dont I use 6400 in planetside 2 and games as youve just described. Also if I had 3 27in monitors i might use something higher than I do now

Nothing on a software or user end can increase the precision of the mouse but the mouse usually isnt the problem its the user which is why that would technically increase precision. I know why they disabled it but im trying to day its not bane of the mouse issues people make it out to be. If I had the choice to use it or not i wouldnt but I do understand why it was created and existed which is my eyes is just as important as proclaiming it must be killed with fire if not more.

i agree that I personally dont touch mouse setting in windows (except for disabling acceleration) or in game when possible. Your best just leaving that as is and adjusting your DPI to the level you like and are used to. I use 1600 normally, 400 for sniping or other precision stuff, and 3200 on my desktop but still have the other 2 available for when I need more accuracy. Using super high DPI usually gives you worse tracking due to noise. Manufactures are now recommending dpi for their mice. For example the CM Storm Spawn they recommend 800 dpi as that is the highest the sensor and do without interpolation and their currently the only manufacturer with that sensor that does 800 dpi without interpolation the others only do 400. O in the case of the Naga 2014 that just showed up here yesterday in the software razer recommends between 1600 and 1800 dpi.

The other thing I would like to point out that I just noticed is that the Deathadder 2013 isnt optical its Infrared which may explain why the sensor isnt in all their mice?

Correction, the DA 2013 is optical.

It's a Ducky Shine II Special Edition with white key caps.

 

As for my G9 (non-X, mine's the first gen G9, I have not even changed the feet on the mouse because it's so durable), the LED color can be changed via Logitech Setpoint software. I'm not sure if it works with Win8, you'd prolly have to check on the Logitech webby tech support section......but, I believe it should.

I'd posted a link in your keyboard thread with the specs for Ducky Shine Zero, it has lighting, hence the 'Shine' moniker/designation.

Oh hell no! Anyways.

I'll probably choose the G700s unless there's a better mouse :)

For MMO gaming The 2014 Naga

For FPS, Intellimouse 3.0

For FPS and a bit of MMO and Ps work, G400(G400s is also okay if you want a wireless mouse at times)

Its so comfy and ergonomic and has wireless that works for gaming of and is so nice for like everything else I do regularly on my PCs too

 

 

 

what's the difference between an optical and laser mouse? 

 

Optical: a led emits the light (can be IR also see Deathadder 2013)

Laser: a IR laser emits the light
