As variant stated, it's being succeeded by the G400 which is better in every possible way. Better cord (thinner, more flexible), better sensor (higher PCS and no prediction), same weight, great clicks and shell is more flexible. It's also actually cheaper than the MX518 here in Australia. The...
The mouse may also have an alternative version: one with the 3090 sensor (cm storm spaw, zowie AM/EVO) which should be better given the right firmware and tweaks, but if the consequence is a high LOD then that should be easily fixed. Big hopes for this mouse :)
It's not hard to make a good mechanical keyboard. They were built to last. All Razer did is make a different outer case for the keyboard. But I think even then they have some build quality issues with some of the blackwidows. Pathetic honestly..
Some mice do it will. For instance, the dharma point DRTCM15 has a very thin braided cord, making it extremely flexible and gives an almost wireless feel. Others like the xai are just too stiff and aren't flexible enough.
Best sensors today still belong to the legendary mice of old:
Intellieye - MS I.E 3.0/WMO (however has low DPI so not for high sens)
ADNS 3060/3080 - logitech mx5xx, zowie EC1/2, DRTCM12bk (although has prediction)
ADNS3880 or w/e - deathadder
Yep its normal. Feel it on my Zowie EC2 Black. This is to help ease the pressure from the way the middle finger sits on the mouse. That, and the middle finger is often not as coordinated as the pointing finger.
Fair enough. The absence of a benchmark for the review does complicate some things. Based on the tech review from benchmarkreview (http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=614&Itemid=72&limit=1&limitstart=11) the gtx 580 seems to get higher avg fps than the 5970 with...
Disable crossfire and you'll get 70+ fps, unless you're already doing so :(
Least that's what I did for my 4870X2 (I have to do this for most of my games - must be defective card:()
Try using catalyst 10.10c
Had some issues with the vanilla 10.10 drivers, but 10.10c works well (enough) with my 4870x2. That, and it's the only driver that seems to work well with starcraft 2..
This happens to me all the time on STALKER games. Anyone have any relief from this bug? Same card, same resolution too..
EDIT: I do imagine though that using a DVI cable instead of a HDMI cable doesn't do this?
5970 has had a year to discuss everything about it to death.
The 6990 however is a very interesting card, but so is the 6970, and the comparable power of a single card solution is usually the topical subject around here.
EDIT: I meant single chip solution** :P
Yet desktops are at the forefront of technological innovation.
With the consolization of games comes the inevitable recycling and simplifying of games. Physics is hardly implemented in games because... yes consoles (technology built from "old and dated" hardware). There also comes the vast...
Pausing mid-game, I'm assuming you're playing online. If so, this is due to B.net, and the way they implemented a waiting system for laggers. This is primarily cause of your internet connection, or anyone's internet connection, making for unbelievably gay online matches :)
I absolutely love the idea of this thread. It would be amazing if you could get a hold of a puretrak talent on account of I really have to know how well the philips twin eye sensor works on it. Thanks for the mini reviews though!
