that exact statement is the reason why i ended up buying my copperhead...

after that, there's no turning back. I am Razer-ified...

while we're at it, why don't we share stories about why we buy Razer stuff in the 1st place? I mean, what made u hooked up with Razer. I'll start:

My affair with Razer began 1.5 years ago, in Thundermatch Plaza Alam Sentral, Shah Alam. At that time when it was still new, they have lotsa Razer stuff, even Lachesis and Destructor (now all razer stuff gone, maybe no buyers). At that time i was looking for a new mouse to use with my new pc. So i browsed around, and looked at the Copperhead. I was like WTH? A mouse for rm210? But the packaging looked damn cool... The green lights looked wicked... And i said, this will look great next to my rig. And so i took the Chaos Green Copperhead, and walked to the counter.

Then i saw the Mantis Speed. I thought, that must be the coolest mousepad i've ever seen! And the color scheme fits my Copperhead like a charm. Those two were made for each other, i thought. So i bought it...

After that came the Goliathus Speed, to replace my Mantis Speed, and the Megalodon. So yeah, my 1st Razer purchases were entirely based on aesthetics. But i'm very happy the products perform as damn good as they look.

What's your story?

hey, i saw your new carcharias... congrats on the purchase!

it puzzles me though, i never got overheated ears when using my megalodon (assuming that it is built the same way as the carcharias)

oh yes, it does attract dust. but once in a blue moon i'll just use the same method as u did: the cellotape. i think it doesn't peel of the pad though, just some loose... what do they call it? lint, is it?

time for major house cleaning, michael!

Speaking of movies, last night i watched transformers 2 m-HD x264, and fuhhh... the sound shook my megalodon... Literally! I maxxed the master volume. It almost re-lived the cinema experience. ALMOST. No surround...

@ micheal,

no dude, the vid doesn't have surround sound, if i turn on the 7.1 the sound will be terrible.

Me? Well, now playing RE5, Professional difficulty with my roomate... Then there's Battlefield 2, COD4: MW (this has 5.1 surround)... It has been quite some time since i've played CS though.

Oh yeah, NFS Shift and GRID.

Correct, bro.. So, no point turning on the 7.1 when the source is 2.0 stereo.

rm35 soundcard? with surround? are u sure... the only cap ayam soundcards i know have stereo.

yeah, have to blast our ears with headphones instead... hehehe

Oh yeah, in fact that's the first sound played with my Megalodon!

Oooh, Naga... i wonder what will happen if it is used for FPS instead... I mean, programming the side buttons for weapon 1, 2, 3, etc, etc...

Added on October 13, 2009, 12:14 ambro everdying, may i suggest you do one part of the review on the useability of the Naga side buttons for various genres of games?

Oh, remember the part where we talked about whacking people's head with gaming gear? Well, here's what it'll look like!

So, i suppose it is possible to program macros to the buttons for other games other than MMO/RPG, yes?

Hmm, what's your budget?

Ah, yes, i just saw this in my FB page too. Hope Ban Leong managed to get some for us here...

Quite a subjective question there... I'd say it depends on what kind of soundcard (i assume, for this case it's USB) you want to pair the headphone with. If cap ayam rm35 soundcard, sound will be like cap ayam la...

Pair them with good ones, like X-Fi Go/Xonar U1, of course you will get better sound. If u can tweak the EQ, lagi bagus...

Eh, u got JVC headphone oso want to complen? I tweak EQ for u summore... hahaha...

That' the Razer Mako, bro... Now circa rm1.2 to 1.3k, if i'm not mistaken. Yeah, they look like drums, but it's THX certified, so that's saying something.

That reminds me: Michael, where and how much did u buy your Carcharias?

well, onboard memory is useful when you want to use that particular mouse in another pc. all settings stored in the Synapse to you don't have to retune the mouse everytime.
