I use the Xai with 800 CPI and am loving it. I also use my MX518 from time to time. I'm having trouble deciding between them XD

I need some advice here, I'm trying to decide what to get, my options are:
Logitech MX518: by far, the reviews are the best and ppl say it's amazingly durable (also, it's an old model), which is something incredible for the price (maybe it's because it's not a new model)
Logitech g9x: there are a lot of ppl arround saying the mouse is great and the grips are excelent, I even heard some coments about this being the favorite of some progamers
Cyborg r.a.t. 7: words can't describe how cool this thing looks and ppl say it's amazingly confortable, however, I'm concerned about the durability and I've heard there are some complains about the Philips Twin Doppler laser sensor (http://cyborggaming.com/prod/rat7.htm)

Any advice is welcome

Having used a razer mamba (has a PTE sensor aswell) I recommend you to stay away from them. Compared to my xai, the cursor jumped around all the time (especially with the smallest movement on the z-axis). The mouse didn't feel very precise either. And the thing I dispised the most was that the sensor stopped tracking from time to time (had to replug etc).

For sc2 is better suited:
CM Spawn
Razer Abyssus

From what you have listed mx518 better.

Care to elaborate why is the Abyssus better for Starcraft?

Btw, I have kind of small hands, so, I'm trying to get a mouse that's not so big

I finally got my own XAI, and it does not compare to any mouse I've used...It is just awesome (1250 sens) and the material it it made of just sticks to the hand. I really recommend it!

Imperator ftw

Although do you have the same problem as me when it randomly dc from the computer at some times?


I dont have any issues unless i forget to wipe the bottom every once in a while. dust or hairs from my dogs will get near the laser and it then sometimes wont track anymore till i wipe it clean.

I am, however, not using the drivers that came with it, just built in windows drivers.

Logitech M100. I bought this today, it looks quite good actually. This may be the LMO of SC2. I would like a pink mouse, but white looks quite good as well.

Acording to this: link, the deathadder is quite precise, so, I ordered one of those, unfortunatelly, it'll take about two weeks to get here... so, I'm taking a two weeks vacation from starcraft since my older mouse broke... it's kind of weird living in a third world country...

DA large mouse. If you have a small hand, the DA may not be suitable.

The Abyssus is smaller and more lightweight. While the DeathAdder is an amazing mouse (I use one myself), it's not suitable for those with fingertip grip and/or smaller hands. The Abyssus, and even better the Salmosa, would be better choices for someone who doesn't have very big hands.

And QFT on the Logitech Mini Optical, I loved that mouse. Wish they'd come up with an updated version of it with higher DPI. I'd be all over that.

In the end, I saw a video review of the DA with some dude who seemed to have my same complexion... after that, I took a moment and tought about what I saw... at work, I use a rather big mouse (the one that came with the computer), however, what botters me about it is that my whole hand doesn't fit over the mouse, (I drag my pinky over the desk all the time while I rest my hand over the mouse)... in the review, that dude demosntrated that you can actually rest your whole hand (even the pinky) over the DA; and I tought "maybe that'll be confortable"...
Anyway, I'm not a progamer or anything close... I'm just a casual player who is tired of shaky pointers an slow (low dpi) mouses...

As a side note... speaking about new mice made me remember the time I switched from my old ball mouse to an optical... I was so used to the z-axis problem and the unaccuaracy that the new precission of my first optical was too much to handle... that sotry sounds rather silly now.

I echo all of the comments that the DA is for people with large hands. I have somewhat small hands, and it's a tiny bit too big for me. If you have small hands (or are a girl) I expect the DA would be noticeably too large.
