icemat/steelseries l-2 what ever u call it:
Soo, i was wondering is this mousepad any good? its glass so i guess its easy to clean, but will it get worn
out by mouse moving at it. also is it really as accurate/ smooth as canvas mousepads etc "normal" ones. i heard mouse skates must be changed quite frequently but its ok since they are way cheaper then buy new mousepads.
i have had steelseries qck+ twice but they get worn out really fast and are hard to clean.., surfice just gets spoiled too quickly.
another one on mice: i like mouse to be really light, 70ish grams any suggestions? steelseries kinzu seems to be nice. but im not trusting ss mice really after xai is such big disapointment with positive accel etc.
thanks

but what tool would remove lets say mouse accel etc if its not up to windows`?
i read many ppl complain about this inside-built accel in xai, error or not its non removable and noticable :/
I'm 100% sure that acceleration is turned off. When I put my mouse to the far left of my mousepad and my cursor is at the left border of the screen, I move it vigorously to the right. When I slowly move it back to the left border again I'm on the exact same position where I was before.
Still beats the shit out of that crappy deathadder that just cracks when you squeeze it a little, I really mean a little thus not angry nerd style.
I really should replace my mousepad though, any suggestions ( using Razer goliathus control edition, but the tracking is a bit off now its worn down ).
Alternatively, look at making your own icemat!
The icemat is probably the most accurate pad on the market
The icemat needs to be cleaned or at least swiped over every couple of minutes (just have cloth to your hand)
The icemat will DESTROY your mouseskates but leave them hald dead. So if you're not that picky (what you obviously are) you wouldn't notice much of a difference.
About the mouse:
Thank god I'm not the only one in this ET community noticing the pos.accel on the Xai.
For a really small and light mouse without any flaws, I'd suggest the Microsoft WMO 1.1 or Razer Abyssus (not sure about no flaws on this one, but quite a few quakers are using it)

every couple of minutes? really? i havent tried icemat tho, it must be annoying if that's true.
It's not that much of a deal though, just have some paper, towel or whatever piece of cloth next to your mousepad. Whenever you get full or got 2 seconds free time you can give it a quick swipe. You can clean it every couple of days with some window cleaner.
That's another plus on the icemat, you could even serve food on it! You can always just clean it with window cleaner or simply water. Doesn't matter if you spill some coffee, coke or pizza on it :-)
I haven't really had to clean it every 5 mins, more like once per day. Obviously there's some crap under the mouse sometimes that needs to be cleaned but you can just swipe with your sleeve once.
However I wouldn't use any sort of soap on it.
Those mice just work, you won't have any problems with them, and even if you do, you can just get a new one for 1/4 of the price of a 'real' gaming mouse.
als die noch verfügbar waren lag der preis bei 60€ auf amazon :D
