A Mouse Pad for a MX510?

[Vio1]

Hi, just ordered a Logitech MX510 perf mouse and was wondering what you people thiink is a great mouse pad to go with.... I want it to be fairly large too...

Place Im gonna prob buy is from www.bigfootcomputers.com so if you could perhaps recommend something from there... that be cool... what do you think is the best gaming mouse pad??

Also, anyone know why there is such low availablity for the MX510? The shipment Im getting wont come into stock until the 16th of June... why isnt it everywhere?

I don't see anything there that people normally recommend... What's usually recommended is something from fUNC or Ratpadz. There's also this German-made pad called the "X-board", which is supposedly also very good and with Rev 2.0 it's bulletproof. I've looked and haven't found any place to buy it outside of Germany/Europe, so you will have a hard time finding it unless you know someone in Germany.

ive seen some reviews about the X-trac HAMMER Mouse Pad... is it any good? can anyone recommend another mouse pad for my upcomming mx510?

[dukat]

[Vio1]

i have found a very nice article (http://www.worldoverclockers.com/Articles/buyersguide/Index.php) which might help you in your decision.

ive got this mouse, is it just me or this thing is slightly lighter than the MX500? I replaced my MX500 with it :p, should i install mouseware? had a bad experience when i installed the software when i first got the mx500.

If you could choice between the X-trac hammer and the Destrukt Mega mat... which would you choice and why?

[Vio1]

oh, and can anyone translate this: Subjektiv gesehen das beste Pad im ganzen Test, weil es sich einfach sehr angenehm spielt und auch wenn es „nur“ den 9 Platz erreicht, war es doch bei uns Testern sehr beliebt. Für alle Lowsenser bleibt die schwere Entscheidung zwischen dem XTrac Hammer und dem Destrukt Pad. Schaut man sich nüchtern die Leistung an: XTrac Hammer. Vom subjektiven Spielgefühl her aber hat uns das Destrukt Pad wirklich mehr überzeugt.

Da das XTrac Hammer zudem satte 35% teurer ist, vergeben wir zufrieden und gerechtfertigt den Lowsenser Preis/Leistungs-Award.

i havent played the xtrac yet. i have had the everglide giganta, the ratpadz GS, the func 1030 and now the destrukt. the func is a good pad and many players swear on it, me too, until i got the destrukt. its not only its size that i like, its also that its a cloth pad. i dont like it when the mouse slips over the pad without giving you any feedback. you could get problems on lans though, cause you will get short of space
:p

Rough translation (not translated by a website):

It is subjectively the best pad in the whole test, because it plays itself simply and very pleasently even if it "only" reaches 9th place, with us testers it was nevertheless our favorite. For the decision between the Xtrac and the Destrukt pad, the subjective play feeling with the Destrukt pad convinced us. And since the Xtrac hammer is a full 35% more expensive, we jstufiably and contently give the Destrukt pad the "Lowsenser Preis/Leistungs Award."

[Vio1]

thnx for the translation.


im gonna have to feel them in the store and just make a decision...

Is the blue version of the MX510 out yet?

[Vio1]

i havent been able to find it. Why is the red one in such limited quantity?

[Bleed]

Is the blue version of the MX510 out yet?
yes they are. i bought mine from compusa coz bestbuy only had red.

[Vio1]

had an off topic question... though it does have to do with mice.... is there any difference in performance if I attach a mouse to a usb slot versus the mouse connection on the mobo? What about system performance diff?

[dukat]

i cant feel any difference between usb and ps2
