It also stores all your mouse settings on the mouse so you can take it anywhere and plug it in and its configured the way you want it. It doesnt store the windows mouse settings though. | ||

I wouldn't buy a G13 for Starcraft 2, you'll probably run out of keys to bind stuff to. Not a fan of Razer after I had two Boomslangs break within 3 months, but that was a long time ago. Hopefully their build quality has improved since a lot of people use and recommend Razer mice. | ||

... Also, their mice are fantastic. They have far stronger designs than their competitors, and they're durable as shit. | ||

Gotta agree, Razor mice are awesome and i will always support them and advice everyone to buy them just because they sponsored TSL and helped our community | ||

However, many people say that the Razer config software is horrible, that the lifespan of the mouse itself is low and that it attracts dirt and shit easily, but I can't confirm any of this. The only reason I picked a Steel mouse instead of Razer was the price (I'm broke) together with the fact that Razer don't have any super-lightweight small mouse models, so I went for a Kinzu. | ||

I'm still a fan of them I really like updating my mouse ever so often. They still perform very well in comparison to other mice. If you're an intense high apm player; Its really nice to put some investment into gear. Its also hard to switch from razer to another mouse once you experience the high DPI and requency settings. | ||

I've had my logitech G5 for like 5 years now it seems, has perfect tracking, exttra buttons i never use, a scroll wheel, somewhere around ~2000 dpi, but works as good or better than any new gaming mouse. From what I've heard steelseries is for fps, razer is the best but their mice dont stand the test of time, and logtech is somewhere inbetween. | ||

I examined the options they have and well razors seems nice, other gaming mice they had all seemed flimsy in comparison. Razer make great stuff.. the problem is they never last.  I've owned a krait, deathadder and currently using an abyssus. My krait and DA never lasted more than 2 years. I'm not exactly abusive with my PC peripherals, sometimes I bring them out for LANs and tourneys but that's about it. So if you ask me, razer makes nice stuff that looks pretty.. but don't expect them to last. If thats ok with you, then go razer.. if you want an ugly mouse that's durable as hell and lasts forever.. I recommend the logitech mx518. :D | ||

For SC2 the microsoft intellimouse explorer is nice. I mean honestly you dont need an expensive mouse for SC2, it just has to be comfortable. Many korean pros, esp bw pros play with very cheap mice/keyboards. | ||

I personally recommend either a deathadder or an abyssus for smaller hands. | ||

The side buttons are attached to the mouse by a long piece of plastic (on the inside of the mouse). When you push the button, the plastic bends, kinda like a spring. If you constantly spam the crap out of the side mouse buttons, the buttons will get bent inward from the plastic losing its rigidity and not feel right after a while (we're talking months.... they'll get "mushy" and lose their crispness... but only if you spam a whole lot) If you don't abuse the side buttons the Deathadder is very nice though | ||

The only thing I can find about the G13 is some sort of keyboard joystick thing?! see here are you really going to play SC2 with that? | ||

I saw no one else in reviews mentioning my problem, but the left mouse button is EXTREMELY sensitive and when i pull my mouse down (doesn't matter what "grip type" I use) the button gets clicked every time, but especially in FPS games when I pull my mouse down and to the left, I end up unloading half a clip and now everyone knows where I am....great. In SC2 it basically kept selecting the wrong units and such, also I felt like it caused a lot of wrist strain (probably because of the weird way I had to hold it to attempt to avoid accidental clicks, which happened anyway. Razer DA is NOT worth the price. I've had the Death Adder for months now, no problems. Pretty sure you just got a dud. | ||

I wanted a small, no-frills mouse like the WMO or IMO 1.1. After it was released, people did some tests and it turned out to have terrible negative acceleration depending on the speed you moved it. Turns out the sensor was quite bad (the Xai on the other hand performed amazing). Almost everyone I had talked to with it said they wouldn't recommend it... has it been updated? | ||

For me, Intellimouse 3.0 is the best mouse. Ever. Too bad it has only 400dpi, and you need more than that for SC2 (for CS:S or 1.6 its more than enough) MX518 is a pretty solid mouse, It's the one i'm using right now, but isn't as good as intelli. I'm still looking for 'my' mouse, the one. Have you ever tried Xai? looks nice, but i've read pretty bad stuff about it's mice. | ||
