My friend got his Siberia V2 RMA-ed due to some cosmetic defect at the end of last year. He just got a brand new unit back this week.

And today, I just picked up a QcK Mass and another Xai. Ahhh, good times.

But strangely, has anyone experienced their Xai cable braiding starting to unwind and peel off?

my xai cable is fed thru my razer armadillo.
so no probs with it.
perhaps urs is dying from continuous friction against the mousepad or table edge or something else?

It's more like the place where the cable connects into the mouse.

I can palm grip my Kinzu. Just that my fingers can touch the front already.

Last time, with the 7G connected via PS/2, one of your colleagues in PC Fair managed to slam the keyboard with everything registering.

Ikari Laser's RRP is 269 now. Maybe can get it around 250 or so if you can negotiate with the seller.

You can hardly find people like me nowadays. A lot of people are not that brand loyal anymore.

Moderno still has 1 unit of the old Neckband. Most sellers are now waiting for stock for the new Neckband.

design wise, you made up your mind on it.

the main point is,
7G = Cherry MX Black. Heavy touch, not that good for gaming.
BW = Cherry MX Blue. Light touch, type type syok.

Orly? I'm still a SS loyal follower  flex.gif

I'm more of a ambi user. Right-handed mouse is okay, but I feel comfortable with it after long hours of gaming.
thus, SS Ikari. IMO, it's like a crossover between a ambi and right-handed mouse.
*
7G's Black switches are good for gaming. You can depress them faster than the Blue ones. But Brown are still one of the best if you ask me.

You should try the Xai. Ambi as it may be, it feels almost as comfortable as the Ikari.

Mhmm? I thought heavier = harder to press? gaming = fast movement = tactile kbs?
never tested brown and red before. Brown is a combination of Black and Blue?  unsure.gif

if only there is a OEM Xai  laugh.gif if not it's a little bit too expensive.
Seriously, I like Ikari's shape.  wub.gif now I feel weird using my TT Black, too ambi-ish, neither my friends DA.
*
The slight increase in the actuation weight isn't going to be much of a difference. In fact, it helps prevent accidental key presses and the bump which you get from the MX Blue is totally unnecessary for gaming. And yeah, the Brown switches as found on the ZOWIE Celeritas are perhaps the middle ground for both gaming and typing.

Oh yeah. A near perfect balance right there.

I'm using 6GV2 which is a black switch. Well I tested the BW before and noticed how the key actually bounced back faster than black switches. It has that plasticy feel which I don't find comfortable compared to the 6gv2.

One question, been using the 6gv2 for 3 days now and I noticed the colors are fading slowly. Is this normal? The white wording turned black already , especially the WASD buttons D:

Totally normal. Sweat just comes and dirties your keys.

I'm pretty sure Blue switches are better for gaming. I tried the SS 7G before and its terrible compared to the BW. I mean seriously bad. 15g of actuation force is a considerable amount really.
*
Well, for me, playing FPS its harder to do double taps on the BW since you need it to bounce back up after the click. And regarding the actuation force, I kept making a lot of accidental key presses with it because I'm too used to resting my fingers on the keys when idle.

Your case is normal since you play FPS a lot.

Need some Lowyat user feedback on the Siberia USB Soundcard.
Planning to get one, and have heard positive reviews so far.

Any of you using it care to share the pros and cons?
*
Soundcard alone? Well pretty much decent soundcard. Don't expect any miracles in terms of sound quality. All it does is enhance the sound and give it a surround sound feel.

I just realized I like the Siberia V2 for PS3's color. It's a matt black with grey.
