I have an MX510 right now... and i'm looking to buy an MX518...

does anybody know if it would be possible to take the faceplate (the blue part :D) off of my current MX510 and put it on the MX518 when i get it?

would it just be a matter of taking screws out etc?

thanks.... any feedback is appreciated
 
Doubt it, seeing as how the top bends to click, it's probably connected underneath. Is blue really worth possible ruining two mice?
 
well i've seen pictures of just the piece i want to swap out removed...

i wanted to make sure that the two mice have identical pieces
 
so basically i want to swap out the colored pieces of the MX510 and the MX518....

is it possible?



sorry for double post..
 
AFAIK they're the same except the electronics. I have both colors of the 510 and a 518. Look and feel, they are exactly the same. Too lazy to take them apart. Good luck
 
I've mixed and matched the MX500 and MX510 parts, those two are completely identical in their casing parts. I'm pretty sure the top piece for the 518 should be the same as the 500/510.
 
THATS what i wanted to hear :p (selective hearing disorder... gets the best of us)

now.......

anybody got an MX518 they want to sell?

:p
 
sorry, a bit OT: but why would you want a MX518 if you already have a MX510. the extra dpi isnt going to help you in games. If you can own, you can own with any semi decent mouse.
 
Not True. I play competitive CSS. I have a CAL team and the switch from 1600dpi, to 1900dpi, which I use now, has made a big difference in my pistoling mainly the USP and my AWP'ing.
 
The 518 has a max DPI of 1600, I'm not sure how you set it to 1900. I wore out my 510 and logitech sent me a 518. I set my sensitivity to about what it was before with the 510, except at 1600 dpi and didn't notice much change other than I had a working left mouse button :). I also play CS competitively.​


On Topic: I have no idea.​
 
I can't handle 1600dpi. I like to actually have to move my mouse to make my guy spin =\
 
I noticed a huge difference between my normal MS mouse and my MX510, and pretty much none between my 510 and 518 (I might use the sensitivity adjust if the second button for it was more accessible without moving figures!). But then again, I'm not a competition level player.
