+ 2000dpi

Oo

ie 3.0 has 400 dpi sensor.

lol? just 400 dpi or am i missing smth here? Even my old mx310 had 800 dpi...

Hmm the information about this dpi is not even wrote at MS's site, and infos at many shop sites are also different. Its not even wrote on the package and in product's description papers. My theory for now is that basicly it has 400dpi but it can be also increased by Precision Booster feature, but donno how high though... Anyway i say that Habu is better mouse (its an razer's optical sensor in MS's packing, so like Copperhead in IME 3.0 skin)

whare are u talking about? precision booster Oo
its only two ways to get better precision, reduce sensitivity (anyway it doesnt change dpi) or interpolation but it works vice versa like is point of precision. Just it skip one pixel for example mouse sends 2 signals to move 2px but on monitor it moves 3 px and it skip one pixel so in real we lose precision. For example a4tech X-750 mouse which based on same sensor like g3/g5 copperhead and habu and every mouse have 2000 dpi, uber a4tech has 2500 dpi what is only interpolated value.

About microsoft habu, heh its mouse made in cooperation with razer, which bases on same sensor (Agilent/Avago ADNS-6010) like in copperhead, g3/g5/g7 and X-750. However it doesnt mean every of this mince are equal, cuz not only sensor has influence on performance. Habu is almost the worst mouse from this group (im not sure now cuz i heard smth after release new firmware it works better).

@sql
ehehe they read it ur mind what yaw and pitch u use.

Thats nice u know how to increase precision of mouse and u share that knowledge with us. But u have also to add an information to ur knowledge that there is a thing called Precision Booster in IE 3.0 ... but we see that hq has already tested that and it doesnt make a huge difference.

sensitivity (cm/360) - 3
mouse DPI -
vertical resolution - 1280
fov - 105

Required DPI is: 3715.6571428571

Minimal sensitivity with 3200 DPI is: 3.4834285714286

***HMM what it means? should i reduce monitor resolution or it doesnt works with G9 yet? or something else?

This should be ingame resoluton(from video settings), ur screen resolution does not have any influence here imo, coz res of screen changes when u enter quake(skips from ur normal screen res to quake res). But if that 1280 is ur real res in q3 i would prefer o decrease it to 800 xD

WOW nice to know that Shock

edit///

i have checked that mouse in the net and it looks very unegonomic(like other razer's mice), due to symetrical shape(it's for right and left-handeds).... and it costs around 67euro (to simile - G9 costs over 90euro). So it doesnt mean that higher dpi = better mouse.

prices dont say anything
the mouse with best shape costs 35 euro anyways x)
