@hypnodog your 270...

240* lol If you want to use my old GT-240 for testing/ light gaming, PM me :P. The HD 6450 won't really do much (it's slower than a 240), but it can do some really light gaming. It's main strong point is web browsing/YT videos lol.

and the leds on razer hardware don't make it faster? Get outa here with your wild theories

I'm pretty sure that new colorful mousepad they came out with makes you a human aimbot and increases your Advanced Warfare K/D by 50% or at least thats what my mom told me when we went to the razer store.

I can't laugh I have an rgb mouse with 12 buttons on the side. Use it for editors, don't really like it for gaming.

And I have a deathadder lmao  :lol:

 

Razer makes some good stuff but the cultist community surrounding it in ahem younger circles is... unappealing to me.

Although I will say their "razer switches" which are really kailh and just a cheap money grab to make bigger margins really damaged their reputation in my mind. My friend has the clicky razer switches on his blackwidow board, they feel so flimsy and weak imo...

I don't like razer mice either, but I can't say I'm too happy with logitech lately either. That said, my g600 is nice, but some of their mice feel cheap lately, though I don't know if they suffer problems like the razer ones do with dying.. Some driver issues though. Really anymore steel series is my first choice for mice. The rival is cheap locally and perfect for me. What I tell people to try, and what I'd own if my mouse weren't for editing. Well once I get a new laptop to replace the one that get killed and I gotta part out, I'll probably get a rival for my desktop. (I prefer to work on a laptop)

I would have went with a naga despite my distrust with their quality had I liked the buttons more. Woulda got an extended warranty. The shape is better for me, the g600 is really unconformable to some. For me it's not, but it can cause me some pain with long term use with editors. The problem is on the naga, it's hard to tell what your hitting sometimes. The g600 has the buttons facing inward in rows, easy to place your thumb, love at first grip. I might try the UtechSmart Venus at some point, and I swear I saw something on tek syndicate, not sure if it was that or not.

Actually I've been looking for a new mouse lately, I have the old DeathAdder 3.5G so it's not in the best shape.  I saw a SteelSeries Sensei Raw on sale at Amazon, have you tried it? Might jump on that becuase it looks pretty solid and its got good reviews up on amazon.

I have not. Just the rival. The rival is a lot bigger than it looks in the pictures.

And I have a deathadder lmao  :lol:

I've got a Deathadder 2013, I definitely enjoy it but you're spot on for the quality issues. They don't last more than a few years and I'm surprised mine has gone as long as it has so far.

 

I don't like razer mice either, but I can't say I'm too happy with logitech lately either.

Totally agree about Logitech. They've driven me nuts with their quality over the last few years. Used to have several G5s which were terrible and lasted maybe a year or two. Meanwhile I have to MX518s and an MX510 that are still working fine. The Razer mice were a test to see how they work and I've been impressed with the Deathadder over the last couple years. Mind you the first Razer mouse I tried was a Lachesis and I hated it. Terrible mouse. Literally gave it away.

 

Anyways back on topic. The HD 6450 is strong enough to run LoL for sure, and probably things like TF2 but I wouldn't push it too far.

Hey you could always use it for running classic games from GOG like UT and System Shock 2...
