    Logitech G5 > Razor Deathadder

    i went MX510 > G7 > Deathadder. For me it was deathadder no question. The shape first my hand better and the reversal of the rubber and plastic bits as compared to the MX510 works alot better imo, especially for someone who has sweaty hands. Also its considerably lighter than the G7 and slightly...

    Poll: Razer Deathadder or Logitech G9

    Haven't used the G9, but coming from MX510 > G7 > Deathadder, the DA has the most natural grip of the 3 for me. Im happy with it though it IS a little on the lightside (even compared with the 510 which was used daily). I've heard great things about the G9 but haven't had the opportunity to try...

    I just installed my new Gigabyte 8800GT 512 gpu!

    I know the feeling! went from x800gto^2 to 9800gtx so thats like a ridiculous upgrade for me, so nice to be able to put the settings back up to full on most everything (1920x1200)

    my (belated) crysis experience

    yeah ^^^ so right. I picked that up while playing the demo when it was first released. I cringe every time I see videos of someone just shooting without a quick switch to armor mode first. Just line up the shot, press '4', shoot at basically the same time, then middle mouse button and flick to...

    VW R32 - Why does the old model hold its value?

    Uh my friends R32 is a 6 speed manual 2007 model and no he didn't opt for the optional bucket seats because he wanted the side airbags in the standard ones. They still offer great support during cornering so really, it shouldn't be an issue. Not having the bucket seats as an option may be...

    9800GX2 Compatibility Question

    I'm looking to possibly purchase one of these cards in the near future but have two questions that I'm not completely clear on. Firstly Power Supply. While powerful at the time, I'm not sure if its enough for the 9800GX2. My power supply is rated at 470w and runs a single 12v rail rated at...

    My buddy's laptop can't install Assassin's Creed.

    Ubi disgusts me. I was really into the Splinter Cell series and they ruined it so completely in Double Agent by taking the lazy route of porting the 360 version over to PC and not actually changing anything. It performed so badly I really had to force myself to play but only managed up to the...

    iPod touch 32GB Backlight issues

    Hmm well I wouldn't be able to compare it to anything, as it was updated as soon as it was plugged in. I do notice it flickering alot at times as though its adjusting to light ~10 times a second as its moved around

    iPod touch 32GB Backlight issues

    Just got my new iPod touch, loving it but sometimes when i unlock it the screen comes on with the back light but it starts to slowly fade out until its completely gone, leaving the screen extremely dark. This has happened quite a few times, perhaps one out of every 5 times I've unlocked the...

    Wireless K/B & Mouse - do they lag ?

    Used to have a wireless keyboard from logitech, batteries would last maybe 2 years with daily use from anywhere between 2-12+ hours at a go, no lag noted over the period I owned it till it dying recently (4 years of use), also own a G7, no lag whatsoever.

    Good cheap soundcard

    I'm looking for a cheap sound card that provides good sound. I've got an X-Fi Fatal1ty which is constantly crapping out and frankly, I'm sick of it. When it works, its perfect but eventually I get the old SCP problems and I've given up trying to make it work over the past year and a half. I...

    Best gaming mouse out there?

    Update for you, got the Deathadder today. Couldn't get the mouse to work on my old system (I'm on holiday back in Hong Kong), tried 6 USB ports and it only got the scroll wheel light up but other than that no response from the mouse. (This system played up when trying to install Vista on a...

    Best gaming mouse out there?

    I use a mx510 for daily stuff and most games for the added functionality of the buttons and have a G7 pretty much solely for CS:S since I don't need the extra buttons there. I also find the plastic finish a rediculous choice of material on Logitech's part and only get this mouse if you 1) Don't...

    For those that werent fortunate enough to see the proper ending to the Z06 video, Clarkson stated that whilst the Z06 really was great on the track, the suspension set up was so poor and unforgiving whilst on any form of public road that it made it immediately apparent for the £100 000 price...

    Edmunds European First Drive: 2006 Mitsubishi Evolution IX FQ-360

    pfft the new SLR doesnt have 722 HP.. its just a model name taken from the old SLR Racing cars number; 722. power only rose 25 hp from the standard 625 to 650hp. Just the way the guy opened the article with that misinformation already makes me want to smack him up the face.

    Automatic vs Manual Driving

    Definately enjoy being in control with a manual. Just feels like thered be nothing to do with a automatic gearbox, but i can see the benefits of having an autobox when stuck in rush hour traffic.
