well hello there, my old mouse basically broke 2 days ago, was using an Silvercrest OM-1008SL picta: my mouse1 button almost constantly stops receiving an input when I hold it. so when I, for example, empty a clip, there will be 3-4 random pauses in my shooting because the mouse doesnt receive its input. so I was looking for a new mouse and I found out Im pretty picky choosing mouses but I did find a mouse by the name of "Logitech G402 Hyperion Fury", which seemed to meet my expectations. picta: price is about 60€ which is pretty much the highest amount I will pay for a mouse so I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the mouse, or can judge the mouse by its specs. Or maybe if you have a better suggestion? requirements: Price: <= ~€65 Wiring: Wired or USB Sensor: Laser, Optical, or infrared Buttons: 7x+ DPI: preferably a DPI switcher Im already used to fairly small mouses, so the size isnt very important to me. small or big, keep it real tho I dont really know if weight will influence anything at all, my old mouse was 75 grams or sth. But if the mouse is way heavier Ill just try to get used to it

Some days ago a friend told me to turn on a feature called angle snapping on my mouse (Logitech G502), I heard of that term before but never bothered to investigate or even try it. Basically what this thing does is "assist" your aiming whenever you draw straights lines. I did a couple of tests and here are my results. The yellow lines represent the margin of my mouse movement and the red line is the pointer trajectory. As you can see I have a perfect precision while using angle snapping. In game, I could easily lock into an unaware player's head and follow him without any trouble at all. Once again, there's a clear difference between on and off while making this particular movement, this could be applied in game while strafing left and right, it would make things easier to focus on your movement rather than your pointer's trajectory. So yeah, I am going to be honest.This thing is cheap, I can't believe this is included on a piece of hardware focused on competitive gaming.I don't know how long has this been present on mice but i wouldn't be surprised if people would call this cheating. Let me hear your opinions about it.

So... to start let me say that luckily these issues stopped today, but I'm worried it'll resurface soon so I figured I might ask around here to see if anybody has had this experience. I couldn't find anything similar on Logitech and gaming forums. Awhile ago, I noticed that the right mouse button was getting sticky. Of course, I thought nothing of it, just that I should disassemble the mouse and apply alcohol to the switch to loosen it up soon. Well, from there the mouse would lose the profiles I had created (seemingly always while in game too ), and to remedy this I downloaded the new Logitech Gaming Software (version 8.5.281) and re-flashed my G700s' firmware. That seemingly took care of the profile loss issue, but the right switch felt stickier by the day, and one day the LED's on the side were all off colors, either orange-ish amber, or a red. Almost as if they couldn't output green. So I cleaned the switch with alcohol, with no success. Anyways, right as I was getting ready to send this damn thing back to Logitech, the switch is now functioning properly again, and the LED's are displaying the proper colors for battery level, DPI setting, and profile selection. That brings me to my question... could the switch have internally shorted and been the cause of these issues? It's supposedly a high-quality Omron switch that's rated for some insanely high number of clicks, but sh*t happens. And do you think I should send the mouse back to Logitech despite the problem (mysteriously) disappearing? I spent $100 (USD) on this thing, and I want my money's worth! Thanks for your opinion and advice.

So as you can see, I purchased the CoD:MW3 branded version of the G9x because it's half the price of the standard one - wouldn't you? Purchased for £30 from Ebuyer - can be bought cheaper in the US. What's in the box? 1x Logitech G9x CoD:MW3 branded gaming mouse 1x Spare 'rugged' feel CoD:MW3 branded mouse cover 1x Metal Logitech weights tin, holding varying weights for the mouse. 1x Soft textile Logitech CoD:MW3 branded mousepad (no mousepad included with the standard G9x) The first thing I noticed with this mouse was the beautiful shape. It's large, but not too large, and pretty much fits my hand perfectly. Which led me to admire the stunning soft resinous finish of the mouse cover - not so much of a fan of the other one (it comes with two) though, it feels cheap and a bit 'rough around the edges'. The button placement on this mouse is to die for! For years I searched for gaming mice which suited my preferred layout and positioning, and finally, I found it! Not only are the buttons in perfect placement but the action of the buttons is soft and feel of a high quality when used. With up to 5700 DPI and 1000 tracking reports per second(!), this mouse is a very precise and - if I'm honest - slightly too good for someone like myself. And despite trying and trying, I have not managed to create ANY noticable negative acceleration. The mouse has memory enough to store 5 on-board profiles which do NOT require the SetPoint software to be installed - handy for Mac / Linux users! These profiles do however need to be set up using SetPoint on a windows computer initially - but I'm sure every Mac or Linux user has that windows-using friend that they've not managed to convert yet - finally, a use for Windows eh!? Hopefully your friend wont be too smug. However, even if you dont have a Windows friend, you can still make use of the manual DPI switch to increase or decrease your effective DPI. With SetPoint however, you can make use of automatic application-based profile switching - very handy for gamers - for example, I have a Standard profile, a CoD4 profile, and a W:ET profile to cater to the different play styles of the two games, and to tone down the DPI once I'm back doing standard computer usage. This can be temperamental however, due to some sort of bug in the SetPoint software - but this is no fault of the mouse. You can also customise the X and Y axis sensitivity.. Useful if you know what you're doing - lowering the Y axis sensitivity means up/down motions will be slower, meaning you're less likely to stray from the 'headshot' zone. The colour of the LED is also completely customisable per-profile, which is handy for knowing which profile you're on, and of course its just nice to have a change sometimes. One thing I find EXTREMELY useful as a programmer, is the ability to press the button on the base of the mouse which disables the restrictor on the mouse wheel - giving you 'free scrolling'. This is seriously handy when you want to scroll through lots of text (ie code), and also becomes quite nice for using on webpages too eventually. Ok, like with all products there's always a downside - unfortunately for this mouse, the downside is in my opinion quite a bad one for a gaming mouse... The USB lead. Sounds like no big deal right? Well the USB lead on this mouse has a threaded textile coating which feels more like horrible impressed plastic if I'm honest, and it has a horrible physical memory to it. I've used this mouse now for about 6 months and yet it still has the memory of when the wire was coiled up in the packaging.. The lead literally has 90° kinks in it as if it's just been taken out of the box.. Which matters when it gets snagged on the edge of your desk mid-battle and costs you your kill spree! Don't let me scare you though - I would still buy this mouse over and over again. I would simply make more of an effort to straighten out all the kinks in the lead before use. TL/DR: Pro's: - Shape - Size - Custom Weights - Button Placement - High DPI - High Tracking Rate - No Negative Accel. - Customisable X and Y axis - On-board profiles - Manual DPI Switch - Side Buttons - Free-scroll / Fixed Scroll wheel changer - Free Mousepad (with CoD:MW3 branded mouse only) - Spare cover Con's: - Cheap, nasty USB lead with ultra long physical memory - Application-based profile switching can be temperamental (software issue, not the mouse really)

The beautiful Logitech G9x with the not so beautiful CoD:MW3 finish -
I have the Logitech G9x gaming mouse, and really want to migrate back to Ubuntu ASAP. However, my mouse requires SetPoint because all settings are based on profiles.. Even the DPI + and - is based on defined DPI levels in your profiles in SetPoint.. But obviously SetPoint doesn't support linux, and HidPoint or whatever it's called doesn't say it supports the G9x - and even if it did, I don't believe it has X and Y DPI control or 'profiles'.. Is there anything I can do? Can I run setpoint in WINE and have it control my mouse? Never had to deal with software-dependent hardware.. Chuck
