So I recently got a g303 and noticed a bit of a rattling noise. I've tried holding down all movable parts and the rattle still persists, so it seems to be coming from inside the mouse. I googled a bit and found that there are quite a few people who's had issues with the sensor lens being a bit wobbly and therefore causing the rattle. Now, I can't really tell if there's an actual effect to this rattle like the ones I've seen on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWsuDhmg0KY) but the rattle is there, so it still makes me concerned.

Anyone that has any experience on this issue? I played with the thought of RMA'ing it but there's tons of people who just seems to get another rattling copy of the mouse even though it's supposedly been fixed at a production level (no official source on that, though).

Yes its a common issue with that mouse. some have managed to fix it by just poking the lens with a qtip, Someone else opened it and used doublesided tape to fasten it. I would try RMA and then try to open it if the second one is as bad.

That was perhaps me you talk about with regards to using tape to fix the rattle. I didn't use double-sided tape there, just normal thin, clear tape. The rattle stops not because of glue, instead because the tape fills a gap in there and makes things fit together tight.

Been using it for several months and its still great. It only has 400 dpi but that's all you need for CSGO. It's cheaper than pretty much all the other gaming mice these days and doesn't have any of the useless buttons that just get in the way or make the mouse look ugly (I'm looking at you, Logitech). It also has a nice clean design instead of this gamer LED nonsense that makes you (or at least me) embarrassed to use the mouse in public.

If I'm paying $40+ for a fucking mouse, I don't want 30 buttons or 4000 dpi. I just want a rock-solid mouse with the build quality to last for many years.

400-450dpi is in the very low sens range for non-FPS games (like desktop use and starcraft 2). Also for FPS games, the perfect control speed is rather low and limiting, you can't use low sens and fast jerks with those mice otherwise you get imperfect tracking.

125hz mouse isn't really usable with a 144hz screen, as you get extremely jerky movement when turning around. That's due to 19 frames per second being created when there has not been a new mouse poll yet - so even when doing a very sharp turn motion, you will have a frame showing the turn and then the next frame will be generated before the second mouse poll and your character hasn't turned at all from that point; Then the third frame will come and it will spin around more suddenly than expected as the next mouse poll contains like 1.8 frames of movement data (carried over from the last frame which had none)

OC'd to ~300hz you have notably higher input lag compared to 1000hz (and on that subject, those mice have non-negligable click latency too) but that issue is largely gone and it's usable for 144hz screen.

Ideally you'd have ~1000hz polling for 144hz as ~300hz is on the low side (lacking a bit of consistency, notable latency) and ~500hz isn't wanted because it's a bad resonant frequency with 144hz (3 polls of movement are shown one frame, 4 polls the next frame, 3 polls the next frame, 4 polls the next frame which creates microstuttery turning and artificially increased motion blur)

Nevermind, I guess joke's on me when I upgrade to a 144 hz monitor next year. What would be the natural successor to someone who likes the IME's shape then? The SS Rival?

Not sure really, rival is rather big

they were great mice but just a lot of little things adding up to make them awkward to use and limited in todays gaming

Zowie EC series (they come in different shape and with different sensors, the EC2 has the 3310 iirc) which are rather expensive but seem great (no driver needed), Steelseries Rival (seems good, they fixed the software too), Razer Deathadder (the software seems to suck). They all have a pretty similar shape to the 3.0, with the rival being closest I'd say.

You could also try to overclock the USB connection to the mouse. There's drivers for that for Windows 7, and maybe someone will eventually get a version of those hacked drivers to run on Windows 10 now that more people stop using Windows 7.

The cm storm alcor is supposedly similar, Haven't tried it myself though.
EC series like nimix said.
The Asus mouse with the replaceable switches maybe?
I know some people that went IME-> deathadder.
I'd try a rival, they seem to be fairly solidly built with a shape that a lot of people find to work well, no major button delay. Looks pretty imo.

As a past-conesseuir of mice/keyboards I still believe the Microsoft sensor MLT 04 to be the best sensor I've used on any mouse. So in pure terms, I always would reccomend an IE, WMO or IME. Still Zowie's releases with the Fk1/Fk2 are quite solid and something that comes quite close to the old mccoy.

As is is, I'm on windows 10 now and have not messed around with overlocking the ports. The newer zowie mice are all driverless which I prefer as well.

The DA is still a great mouse, albeit a bit heavy for my tastes.

The rival is in the same situtation, I dislike heavy mice so I don't use it. I haven't checked out the new one.


I would just reccomend getting an Fk2/Fk1 If I were in the market for mice. The Kinzu V3 looks pretty decent as well, unfortunately it appears they discontinued the kana line which was the most similar to the old WMO

They never got it working on w8 in the last 3 years AFAIK. When it was working, you'd have to use ~300hz (~500hz max but that's a bad frequency to use with a 144hz screen, maybe use 500hz with screen at 120) and accept the low DPI (not neccesarily bad for FPS game but limiting for non-FPS), low PCS (a big problem for a lot of people), minor cursor movement input lag and click delay (at least a slight annoyance)

I just don't think it's worth today outside of maybe niche uses. I do have several of these microsoft mice in my house but i can't use them for non-FPS (~400-450dpi too low) or for FPS at my sens range (PCS too low) so i've used them for like a total of 3 hours in the last 5 years.

Alucen-Will- have you tried 3366 yet?

To be honest, the windows 10 limits (cursor and window movement is always vsynced unless you're playing a game in exclusive fullscreen mode) bother me more than some of the slight differences between sensors - but i don't really think that mlt04 has anything significant over 3366, while it has a lot of downsides. The main problem with 3366 is that it's in two mediocre shells at the moment - i think i'm doomed to get a new mouse once or twice a year forever.

Also i think 60 vs 120-144hz dwarves most of the differences between sensors. It often makes me laugh to see r0ach complaining about cursor responsiveness from very minor OS tweaks that i can't detect any difference from at all, while meanwhile he's using a 60hz IPS monitor.

The input lag difference alone between 60 and 144hz is large enough to blind test (~27ms vs 17ms in a roughly optimal usage case) and very easy to show with a camera while most of the stuff i've seen for mlt04 is more focused towards "it feels different" than "it's better than this mouse because X". Even then, i've seen a lot of mlt04 guys liking the 3366.

I really wish I knew why Logitech discontinued it since it seems like it's been hugely popular and positively received by almost everyone


They released new mice of similar sizes with better sensors (in ways that actually matter)

Looking at Logitech's website, it seems like the G502 is the spiritual successor to the G9x (specifically with the adjustable weights). However, in the last 10 pages or so of this thread, everyone's been talking about the G303 and the G502 has gotten almost no mention. Is there anyone here that's tried them both and could offer some insights between the two?


I've got a g402 (pretty much same shell as 502) and a 303.

The 402/502 forces palm grip and doesn't really let you do much else. The 303 on the other hand is pretty much the opposite as the shape isn't easily palmable, yet it's ideal for claw grips and workable for fingertip.

I would consider g9x a fingertip/claw mouse (not palm) though i never used one


Not necessarily, I have no problem with claw grip on my g400 and g502 but I also have pretty big hands so it'll vary person to person.

The huge thumb holder on the side of the g402/g502 is what stops me from using claw but even if i could, there's too much weight and it's too far forward to effectively control with those grip styles for me. I have like medium sized hands and had some form of rsi when fingertipping g402 that went away after using g303. Then again i use like 600-800dpi on 1080p. My 900dpi at the moment is strangely high for me

Can anyone recommend a brand/company that sells replacement skates/feet for mice. My zowie mico's fronts skates is totaly gone and looking to replace them since the rest of the mouse is still good. I came across hyperglide but found mixed reviews so hoping the TL community can help me out.

I've heard that logitech g1 and mx300 have compatable feet with the mico so was planning on getting those to replace.

I used to buy teflon (? not sure it's the english word for it haha) tape for my 3.0 when I still had a hard pad. You can do whatever you want with it and it glides really well, plus it's cheap. Not sure if it's better than specific replacement skates, but if you can't find any then definitely give it a go! I'm looking for a link but all I can find is very thin tape used for sealing in plumbing, whereas you need the thick stuff that really just looks like mouse skates. I'll edit if I find what I'm looking for, but I used to be able to buy that at any DIY store.
edit : this kind of stuff http://www.coleparmer.com/Product/Cole_Parmer_Extra_Thick_PTFE_Adhesive_Tape_2_W_60mil_15ft_roll/EW-08277-22

thx for the input, ill def take a look into it, found some other ones online but dont seem to ship to wear I live. starting to maybe think that it might even b better to just buy a totaly new mouse (non mico) that is still current/still in production so that support for it would b that much easier

on that note

1. What's your grip style?
Claw/Finger hybrid

2. What's your sensitivity?
800 DPi

3. What's your maximum budget?
No limit for quality

4. Do you want additional buttons?
No

5. What games do you play?
Mostly Starcraft 2 some h1z1, csgo


6. Do you mind about prediction?
not sure what that is, but pretty sure i dont want it

7. Other relevant information:
A fan of small ambidextrous mice, started with a rdm microsoft mouse that comes standard with base comps. Bought a logitech g3 and loved it, then got razer lachesis (got used to it but was really big) got razer abyssus then bought zowie mico and absolutely loved it.

I'm not sure how big the mico is, but maybe you should take a look at the logitech g100s? I head the clicks at kind of hit or miss and were faulty on some models a while ago, but it should kind of ressemble the mico. Otherwise you could take a look at the g302 or 303 (303 has a better cord and sensor, but the 302's should be good enough to justify the price difference unless you play super low sens cs:go), but their shape is kind of weird so you might not like it.

ya my issue right now is more the size, the smaller the mouse i have had the better i like it. I have been looking at both the g100 and 302/3 gonna try to hit up a local store to get a proper feel for them.


EDIT: I just found this http://pcwaishe.cn/article-11245-1.html looks like another Chinese mico with way better mouse feet/skates you can order it off amazon but sadly it cant be shipped to my address. Also found the commatech m1 that I can order of taobao. I've had no experience ordering off that site so I don't kno if its trustworthy, also im pretty sure I read that the commatech has angle snapping and i think that is pretty bad for sc2 no?

The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.
