Actually I do apologize that I'm using "Super Smooth" in X8 .... the scroll did smooth while I drag the scroll down, it gives a nicely feel in my finger =)
but compare to default scroll down still a little hard, however still improve =)


What are you talking about?? laugh.gif Anyway - the fact is the scroll wheel on the X8 is very solid - and very clicky... I didn't really fancy it at first, but it did get smooth.

Update: Intellitype and Intellipoint (aka the software that works with your sidewinders) has a new version - 7.0 - which is mainly released for Windows 7 users. thumbup.gif

Yeah, and I can proudly admit - the X6 is kinda stupid cuz it doesn't have any feet to prop it up. Makes playing FPS games a hassle... rclxub.gif
