Ok guys, this mouse war thing is stupid. Everyone is stating that whatever mouse they have at that time is the best, its really rediculous. You cannot say say that you have the best unless you have tried them all. I for one have finally been exposed to the MX1000 to give a quick opinion on all of them
MX510/310(these are in the same category because they are the same engine)
Great mice. No response lag. Very accurate. Very Comfortable. A Top notch gamer mouse. Most everyone uses one, there is a reason why. This mouse needs no introduction. I give these a 9
MX700
Also a very nice mouse. There is however lag from stop to motion due to the wireless. If someone says that there isn't, they are lieing. Either that or they are not very bright(or just in denial). But, again great mouse. Even though the lag is there, in my experience it really does not affect gaming one little bit. The engine is the same one that is in the MX510, so its very accurate and also has an extra bonus of comfort. This deserves a 8.5 only for the reason of the SLIGHT lag.
Razer Diamondback
If i could just take control over this thing i would own everyone that walked the planet. Sensitive doesn't even put you into the right perspective of the way this mouse is. The slightest TOUCH zips the mouse across the screen. You HAVE to lower you sensitivity settings for this bad boy. A problem i noticed is no matter how low you put the sensitivity, you will always misjudge for at least a few days. You will overshot everything and lose in every game you play. Once you master the mouse a little up the sensitivity. It will take WEEKS to get good with this mouse, so if you buy this mouse, just be patient. Another problem that has not went away is desktop use with this mouse. It is extremely light, which sounds good, but is also bad. It is very hard to double click something because the mouse seems as if it is in constant movement. There is the added function of lowering/raising sensitivity IN GAME, which you will use alot. Don't listen to people what they say about raising the usb polling rate. It does not improve anything whatsoever. It makes your mouse in desktop seem more smooth, but in gaming usage, it actually will hurt you rather than help you. Aside from the slight "problems", this mouse rocks. I give it a 9.
MX1000
What can i say about this mouse. Its an awesome mouse, you can litterally use it on most any surface. Desktop usage rocks. Despite what people say about it being wireless there is ZERO lag going from stationary to movement. The battery stays charge for a very long time. Sounds like a great mouse huh? No, actually i like this mouse the least out of all of them. The feel of the mouse may seem comfortable, but it completely cramps your hand. It tries to cup your right hand "too" much. While there is no lag from stationary to movement. There is a lag from a quick pickup and set down. Slow people with lower IQ may not notice this, but yes it is there. It is slight however. Does that make up for it? absolutely not. What the mouse does instead of just delaying the time in when it comes "back to life" from being picked up, it does worse. It seems to "calculate" how far you moved your mouse during the delay and just pop your mouse cursor where it thinks it should be during the delay. Not a good idea because you will always keep moving your mouse until it reads. You may have to use this mouse to understand what i mean however. This mouse is not good for gaming. The only people that will say it is good for gaming is one of those people i mentioned above. They wasted 80 bucks on a mouse and they will stay in a complete state of denial while saying "its the best", when in actuality its not. You can game with this mouse. You can probably game with this mouse and be good, but only because you are a good gamer, not because the mouse is helping you out. I for one am a very goodFPS player. I get a decent number of kills with the MX1000, so its not that bad. But i get the equal amount of kills with any 400dpi mouse. Do you catch what I'm saying? The MX510/310/700 and Razer diamondback i will always do more. I have said enough, this mouse deserves a 7.5 on a good sunny day.
Final Conclusion:
Razer Diamondback and MX510 are both very good gamer mice. Personally, no joke i can play better with the MX510, mainly because i am a NORMALLY low sense player. But however once i "master" the diamondback there will be no contest to which is better. If you are a low sense player , the MX510 is still your mouse, until you think you can take it up a notch. Any low-med to med to high sense player, the Razer Diamondback is the best out there and with practice you will do better.
I hope this helps guys. I gamed with all of these mice and completely different days/times just to be sure i was getting accurate results. Although basically the razer came slightly out on top, i will be getting the new MX518 when it comes out, because i still believe Logitech has the most comfortable mice out there. This whole review is a complete unbiased opinion of mine. Please keep that in mind.
