yeah i mean i can sell my logitech mini optical to whomever needs it.
it's probably the smoothest mouse out there for a game with low res like starcraft, but
i've grown to like my razer better. haha

i have no problem with the mini optical

although it can't "read" extremely fast flicking, keep in mind:
1. starcraft is played in a 640x480 window
2. you're probably playing with a high enough sensitivity that you won't even need to flick your mouse that quickly

i even use the mini optical to play FPS games now, which isn't really a problem because I'm a med-high sens player


The problem with that is it's still a 400 dpi mouse. High sensitivities with low dpi mice mean a big lack of precision. You'd feel a big difference using a high DPI mouse with high sensitivities. Besides, you can't put Windows mouse sensitivity up so technically if you wanted a mouse that was high-sensitivity for starcraft you'd have to get a higher DPI mouse. Personally I love my low-DPI 3.0 because I use fairly low sensitivites in games.

PS. Windows mouse sensitivity effect (try it in paint)

the logitech miniop is perfect when you play starcraft. But in other use, especially if it is in high resolution, its kinda annoying.

i think its weird that they use the QCK pads. My qck+ pad (the huge one) slides really bad with the mouse. I had to replace the feet of the mouse -_-

hell i used to be the one explaining this in mouse threads

in-game sensitivities don't mess with the precision from the 6th notch
of course in starcraft there is no "in-game sensitivity" slider so you're actually forced to lose precision if you want higher or lower sensitivity in it

p.s. i even made this for my clan once to explain how to tweak a mouse (might be outdated)

this mouse is crap. koreans just use it because like all asians they have conformity hardwired into their brain-set. the qsenn dt-35 is also crap (i have both white and black) everyone uses it because 10 years ago that was the shitty keyboard and mouse that the ancients used. so everyone wanted to be like them and thus bought the crap gear. 10 years later it hasnt changed. if you want a good mouse with laser precision and no-fail tracking. i suggest razer krait.


hey man can i buy both dt-35s off of you?


no, since i collect keyboards. if you are in china you can get one for 90RMB

the logitech mx510 is quite nice. i have a red one. but i find my razer death adder beats it. i know i sound like a razer rep or something... but i collect keyboards and mice.. their mice are simply the best i've used... their keyboards are nothing special though. if you want a nice keyboard (which must be mechanical -- makes the clackity clack and doesnt ever jam, ever) get a steel series. they are expensive though. otherwise for cheap mechanical keyboard check out Cherry Keyboards

There can't be a mouse/keyboard thread without mention of the MX518. I picked one up a month or so ago, and I've fallen in love with this mouse. It's just perfect, well worth the $40 it is now.


real talk. my mx510 is still going strong after, like, 3-4 years

haha dude mine too. i got it since freshmen in HS and now im freshmen in college. except the left click sometimes doesn't register if i don't press it hard enough, and the mousefeet are coming off. but yeah i'm using the football mouse and it's a lot smaller and kinda more comfortable



http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=56599

Aren't 500, 510, and 518 all the same exact size except different ugly design?
The mouse is good but its far too heavy and awkward feeling. Also you don't need all those extra browser buttons for a gaming mouse. That's why I rock 2 mice!
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
