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 recently I have had a headset issue for my pc. Not enough power, low volume, and flat sound in general. I purchased a few different headsets, trying, usb, wireless, even earbuds to try to get more out of my sound, but really never found any sort of improvements.. So I turned my attention to software, and so the google search was on. I found and tried various free/paid programs with the promise of boosting your audio, adding surround to your audio, with all sorts of eqs, but just like the headsets, I had no luck. Then during my search, I found a link to the Razer website, and in the description it read "7.1 Sourround with any stereo headset" Of course you can imagine my disbelief, as these things are always garbage, and at most do some sort of spacial horrible surround. Well, there was a free download link to try it out, and I thought well I can at least give it a try. I downloaded the app, which is very small, ran the installer (Which btw you will have to make an account with Razer, as it like everything else uses a type of cloud to keep you connected) and in no time was setup. Now if you are only using the demo version, the only options available are, which audio to use, the tester, and the demo. Not much else from there, but as I am only trying it out that was fine. So I ran the test, and the demo, and was amazed at what I heard, it was amazing. It was like sounds were coming at me from all angles! Of course, the tests and demo could be setup that way, so I didn't get much more excited. The big test would be when I gamed.. I loaded up various games/movies/music and put this thing through the steps, and let me tell ya, it really was mind blowing. The sound was so great, it transformed so much bland audio into amazing surround. I ran it for a couple days then decided at only 20 bux, It couldn't hurt to give the full program a try. Buying it was a snap, and the key was sent to me in an email instantly. I clicked upgrade to pro, entered the key and boom, all the features became available to me. There is a standard eq, but there is an audio tab that not helps you situate you gaming/music needs, but also one for voice, so you can adjust your microphone accordingly. There is a settings tab that lets you pick your audio device/headset and a box to check or uncheck to enable the virtual surround. Last, well I should say the first tab is to calibrate the 7.1 audio to your headphones. It's very simple as it plays a sound and you use you up arrow and down arrow to adjust via a visual aid where the sound feels like it is coming from. This helps give you the true experience. Overall it was well worth the purchase for me, buying it was easy, and installing was the same. Pros: 7.1 surround in stereo headphones, easy to install, easy to purchase, setting up is a snap, changes the way you hear/play games/movies. Low cost alternative to high cost actual surround headphones. Cons: Connected to cloud (Though there is an offline mode), virtual surround, nothing beats the real thing.
