I thought of getting a Sidewinder X8 mouse to replace my Death Adder. Does anyone tried both Razer/Microsoft mouse? The Razer seems to have poorer quality and all my friends using Razer mouse has the same opinion smile.gif

Hm.. I thought that x8 comes along with different set of feet you can use? Well, at least until they come out with third party replacement feet for the x8.

I've tried and all of them are about the same, lol. I can't feel the difference? There are 3 types but which color is supposed to be good for the Destructor mat? Anyone knows?

I can't get replacement feets from anywhere? I read about some good quality teflon feets so is that supposed to help? sad.gif

Ya, I believe so too and sticking teflon feet is probably my only choice. The plastic feet originally will get brushed off unevenly on a hard surface mouse pad like Destructor. After a while it's no longer smooth movements, oh well sad.gif

Emm, it's not to say worn out but if you have the X8 and a hard surfaced mouse pad then you'll get what I mean smile.gif The mouse feets are plastic so after a while of usage, it will eventually become uneven and rough. Hence, you no longer get smooth movements from it.

I'm not sure where we can buy Corepad Skatez in Malaysia?
