Oh how under represented the intellimouse explorer 3.0 is in the SC community >: It's one of the most popular mice on earth for gamers, primarily FPS gamers.


As an FPS player I find that very hard to believe.


Until most of the pro teams started using sponsor equipment (i.e. EG all using steelseries mice), ms 3.0 was used by quite a few pros in cs and quake. Still is in quake quite a bit, along with the ms 1.1. Not so much in cs since all pro teams pretty much have sponsored mice.

Newer games don't see the ms 3.0 as much anymore simply because it's a newer generation of gaming- someone new to the scene probably isnt going to want to use old technology when it's not as common as it used to be, and again you don't see pros using it as much outside of quake. And obviously a mouse can only be good if you pay more money for it

Also I think zlasher knows a thing or two about fps gamers...


Intellimice (1.0/1.1/3.0) were and still are ones of the best mice for FPS gamers. A lot of the newer mice have problems e,g skipping etc.

Those mice have:

1) Non-perfect control - usually clipping at around 1.8m/s
2) Very thick/heavy cord - very bad for light mice
3) Suffer from mouse wheel problems


Looks like many pros use logitech g1, is the mouse overall good? The description of the mouse says that it only goes upto 1000dpi. Not sure if I should consider buying.


DPI doesn't matter at all. 1000 DPI is a LOT and probably overkill for most.

I'm using a G9x that has capability to 5600DPI but I'm only using it at 500DPI and Speed: 0 because it is ridiculously sensitive.

If I needed a cheap-ish replacement for my G9x, I would definitely get Logitech G1 off eBay for around $30 + postage.

Hey, is the MX300 the exact same size and shape as the G1 or smaller? I find the G1 a little too big for me sideways.

And is the G9/G9x meant to be used without any shell as well? How big is it compared to LMO/G1 or other mice with/without shell?

I'm looking to buy a g9/g9x, any particular reason the x is worth the extra few bucks? I seriously doubt I'll ever need more than 3200 dpi. Also I'm confused on the grips.. any one significantly better than another, or are they all essentially the same thing?

i believe the g9x is just an updated version of the g9 ... not sure what was fixed.. it isn't meant to be used without the shell but it can be done its just not very ergonomic .....as for the grips one is silky smooth and has a wider bottom for your thumb/pinky to sit on... the precision grip has a textured plastic finish and has a more narrow bottom...
...wtf?

No just buy the g9..I have both.
The g9x has faster dpi that u wont use.
As for the grips it comes with 2..... wide load and a smaller rubbery precision grip.
And u can buy a 3rd the id grip(ment to be mx 518 shape i think) google it

Its by far the best mouse i have had.I use the precision grip.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Where could you buy a logitech g1? I don't think its sold at their official website anymore.

Also what mouse would you recommend me? I feel lijke MX518 is too big for me and uncomfortable while deathadder feels perfect for me. I use about 1200DPI and I feel like logitech g1 1000dpi is low.

He made a post about it. I think he got one for free and tested it out at least. His post was about some issues he was having with it so he may not be using it regularly.

After looking through many threads, people suggested that gaming mouses that are light. When I looked at my mouses weight compared to what sc2 pro gamers use, it was really heavy(Logitech MX518). I made my mind to buy Razer Abysuss because it is lighter than logitech g1 and cheap.

DPI is just sensitivity right? I have my DA set to 3500 and I think it's too sensitive. I've been messing around with the settings and haven't really found the perfect match just yet.

Edit: I just read above and yeah it turns out lower DPI is much better for me. I set it to 900 and it feels a lot nicer. I don't know why companies advertise higher DPI to be a good thing, doesn't really make sense.

When it comes to fps-games etc by increasing DPI/CPI and lowering in-game sensitivity the mouse cursor movements become smoother. In SC2 you can't increase or decrease the sensitivity in-game because of the acceleration in the game itself, but ure right it's also a marketing gimmick

Well, I have been using extremely high DPI + low sens quite a while and I discovered that it is most comfortable for me. Movement is so much smoother, precise and accurate then on like 400 DPI

its not preciser with high dpi high dpi such as 5600 is needed for 3 monitors linked together
if you have 3 monitors as example 3*1920 1080 3*1920 is 5760 pixxel's there for you need 5700 dpi is the only reason dpi makes only more precise is your monitor is big that works not good with a 400 dpi mouse then its not precise and fro precise then you need more dpi ^^

Judging from TT1's pics of their house, Kiwikaki uses a Razer StarCraft II keyboard.

It's a feel thing, as well as the size of your monitor. I'm on a 23" monitor and on my g9x I'm currently using 2400 DPI and speed 5, I just like a more sensitive mouse and it works for me. I know a lot of people who go over 1000 DPI, even if 5600 is overkill.
