Quote from rockdaboat17 : Pretty solid price, no doubt. I've come to love my dpi on-the-fly changing (G9x), but otherwise this looks like a solid choice. TU.

This has on-the-fly as well, but the presets are 500/1000/2000 dpi.

I bought this last time it was $13 or so after rebate. Certainly worth the money. First of all, update the firmware. There are like 10 different versions of firmware that all change the tracking and lift-off distance to different levels. I forget which one I have but you can probably look up online which ones are best. Next thing that I'll say is that this mouse is a little light for my tastes. It's certainly very well-made and not cheap feeling, but because of the weight it feels like the movement is a little loose, even at low DPI. I thought my MX518 was better for tracking in FPS's, even though this one is supposed to have a "perfect sensor." That said, it could just be because I'm playing CS:GO, which has some reg problems anyway.

At any rate, this is a pretty solid mouse, and a great back-up mouse if you're in the market. It's also good if you're a fan of optical over laser, like I am.

Great deal, thanks OP!

DPI newb here. I have a 3600 DPI mouse. If this one's max DPI is only 2000, does that mean I can't ever make it scroll across the screen as fast as my current mouse?

Thank you, I was looking for a gaming mouse!

Since it is "Shipped and sold by Amazon", I was able to apply $5 Ford promo and got it for $16.14.

$6.14 AR is pretty slick

Quote from catnapped : Some of these have a double-click bug (single clicks sometimes register as double). Supposedly there's a fix for it, but that "supposedly" has been forthcoming for over a year.

?

I flashed v70 series firmware on mine and I've never had the double click bug.

Correct. You can increase the mouse speed in Windows settings too btw if you didn't know, but a maxed window speed and maxed 2000 DPI will never be as fast as maxed window speed and 3600 DPI.

Maxed window speed and 2000 DPI is pretty fast though.

I suppose to clarify since who knows who's reading, the cursor speed on the screen can still move as fast as you can move the mouse, but the DPI is about being able to cross more distance on the screen with lesser mouse movement. Moving the mouse 8" to go from one side of the screen to the other gets old quick unless you need that much precise movement.

I've always gotten Cooler Master rebates; even had no trouble with the free fans a while back, (though others did). They're slow, but they arrive.

This is a good deal even without free shipping.

Great deal. I have the spawn (don't know if xornet was available at the time) and love it. I've been through several mice now and this is my favorite since I'm a claw grip. I could probably be fine with a xornet since I play at mid dpi setting anyway. Love the feel and switches are great. No problems at all after having it nearly a year now.

Got this mouse in October, rebate still never came =/. I do other rebate such as crest white strip around the same time, and those be coming in.
This mouse claw grip didnt match my style, so i bought the much praised g400.
Very good mouse g400.

excellent points. I am using this mouse now, and I had updated the firmware. Also: note that there are no drivers from the company.

bought this last time it was front paged, in august i think, for $23 and submitted a $10 rebate. Its been almost 6 months and rebate is still no where to be seen. Called them and they couldn't find my submission. Duhh!

If you prefer claw grip mice, this is well worth a try. Comfort, feel and button placement are all excellent, especially for the price.

I bought this mouse a while back in August from Newegg.

(1) They lost the rebate. No record at all when I called. I was able to fax in a copy and received my check about a month later.

2) I realize that picking a mouse is like picking a religion, but I prefer the Logitech G400 for gaming.
I tried if for about a month of gaming, after my old Logitech died. But eventually gave up
and bought another Logitech.
