Shame that they tested x710 instead of x750, I think it could make som emess among other "uber" mices from lgitech or rzr.

Amen to that.

I'm using an x750 myself, and must say it's a very solid mouse.

The only thing that it lacks for me is a button for changing sens downwards.

u can always ask him to do a review on the x750. he specifically mentions that now that he has the setup perfected hes gonna use it to test out things like how difference mice perform on different surfaces.

hq. got a little confused by ur post. are u saying mx510 > mx518 > g5? i mean that purely for quake. and what did u mean when u said g5 is better for graphics?

would be greatly appreciated if u could explain. im planning to build a system soon and the mouse is really important to me cos ive played on shitty mice (mostly dell crap) all my gaming life.

kinda hard to explayin, im never liked mx518 if feel it was worse than mx510 wich im used before couse mx518 gived a fealing that pointer moves bit more than u wish. On mx510 im feeld that poiter moves realy tuf exacly what im wish

mx510
withnout usb oc to atleast 500Hz pointer give realy no smoth move

G5
pointer moves realy smoth it is the best mouse if comes to poiter smoth movement, mouse wheel dont working corectly and it need some time to adapt to new wheel, on dirdty mouse pad mouse losing traction prety oftern (qck+) and normaly on clean mouse pad its hapening somtimes but not so often

mx518
is prety good but that wierd feealing mouse is beyont control maked me think that mx510 is beter

btw im curently playing on 47cm per turn

for an windows and graphic editing i will recomend G5 but i am playing q3 on mx510, yeah i have both of the mices at same time, im realy liked G5 it is realy fine mouse iven played with G5 on 57cm per turn but im finnaly get back to mx510 couse G5 start losing traction to often wich aftected mine orientation on map

when im talked about graphic editing and G5 im thinked that is the moust smoth and precise mouse im ever used

k thanks a lot hq. so i guess ill get a 518 or a 510 (probly 510) for now cos theyre both cheaper and better for q3 (as most people tell me). ill probly get a g5 later when theyve fine tuned the sensor a bit more to gaming and i have some more cash.

thanks.

overclocking your usb port changes how often it looks for new data

Howdoes it change the 'feel' of the mouse?

orpheus the idea is that the mouse scans the surface a certain times a second. normally this sensing frequeny of the mouse is greater than 1000 Hz (counts per second). obviously since the mouse is interfaced to ur system through the usb port, and since the usb port refresh rate is set at 125 Hz as default in windows, the mouse data will only be processed 125 times a second while it's capable of much more counts per second.

therefore overclocking the usb port rate to a larger value will result in more counts per second from the mouse actually being read by windows. in other words as long as u have a mouse thats capable of more than 1000 counts a second, having a lower usb refresh rate will result in a loss of precision.

hopefully that explained the situation well enough for you.

Pfuw i realy dont know man its kinda hard to say realy , i think it depends what sudes you the best i think (i have had alot of mouses , and why i used a g3 for E+ is simply because it was a fast light smooth mouse which is a very precise mouse for the railgun its just a great railmouse , and for the microsoft ones its just that they are realy nice with negative accel also for building up speed in strafing and they just feel very great and there realy precise also so as i said i realy have no idea what you should buy i basicly think that you should keep youre g5 for E+ because its the same mouse sensor as the g3 only the g3 is smaller and lighter , and for css hmm i never realy played that lame camping game so i have noidea which mouse is best for that , anyways for much info on mouses hardware etc you should vistit www.esreality.com

Cheers Happy

ocf i j/k. Ihmo better is use one mouse cuz on dif mouse u have different sens, movment on pad (diffenter quality feet - teflon, plastic ect) feel move in game. I try in all game has this same setting. In extreme sytuation u can kill ppl without aim. Cuz u feel ur mouse. When u play on 3 different mouses u lost this feel ihmo.
