Well, most of the mouse recommended are optical and based on avago 3090 sensor. Currently I'm using G400s (avago 3095, logitech version of 3090) and Kana v1 (pixart 3305, which got many complain, but updated with latest firmware to fix jitter problem) side by side, with 400 cpi, I dont feel any different at all. I guess some people are just way to darn ocd'ed.
If you can live without easyshift, maybe g500s? Seems to be similar on shape

i concur with this suggestion, the G500s seems like a good replace for u Silverfire, it also has quite a number of side buttons, up to 10 cuztomizable buttons iinm

which DA are you referring to?
anyway, my DA 2013 side grip is starting to wear off after about one year of on and off usage, so there's that.

U mean the rubber grips on the sides became sticky? doh.gif What about the matte plastic on the top? Will it turn shiny?

In garage sales, ideal tech selling them, the only one I saw so far. RM159, which is cheaper than Deathadder and Rival.

mini review of the SS Rival
user posted image
user posted image

compared to my previous CM Storm Inferno, the SS Rival is significantly longer but shorter at height. the weight is about the same. Rival's mouse click is stiffer but easy to adjust to and the noise is softer than the Inferno. there are two things to complain about the Rival. 1) that it doesn't come with braided cable; 2) the middle button only toggles CPI but there's no indication as to which CPI profile is currently in use. rclxub.gif the matte surface feels comfortable but it does attract a lot of fingerprints/oil/sweat and need constant clearning (wipe it with cloth after use)

Pros:
Comfortable shape and matte surface
Fancy 16mil lighting choices
Soft mouse click sound
Huge thumb buttons for easy access
Simple and no-nonsense extra buttons

Cons:
Matte surface attracts fingerprints/sweat/dust
Non-braided cable
No indication of current CPI profile

any recommendation for mouse <100? hopefully can <80

Steelseries Kinzu RM99
Logitech G300 RM89

if you can stretch a bit CM Storm Alcor RM159, Logitech G400s RM150

my MX518 dieded

need replacement... G400 EOL already ah? now replaced with G400S?

need something with similar shape... with forward and back buttons.. +/- dpi buttons and 1 more customizable button (similar buttons to MX518)...that customizable button must be able to set to minimize window.

below 100 any recommendations?
*
since u come from MX518 and prefer its shape, why not go for the latest G400s?

QUOTE(Farlz_89 @ May 11 2014, 09:31 PM)
Hi all..sorry if off topic sweat.gif
any Deathadder 2013 user here and got problem like mine?
I noticed the scroll wheel occasionally squeaks while scrolling.
And when I push the scroll wheel from the rightside to the left, I get a very squeaky sound and the scrollwheel moves quite much. Now when I push the scrollwheel from the leftside to the right there is no movement and no noise at all.
I feel this quiet annoying.  vmad.gif
Damn, i'm just bought this mouse two days ago..  doh.gif
Can i request from shop to change to new one?..i dont want to rma because its will take long time  sweat.gif
*
if im not mistaken, the Razer DA2013 should have a really silent n solid scroll wheel. normally the squeaky sound means the scroll wheel axis already worn out due to long usage

maybe its a refurbished unit from razer factory or maybe just individual occurrence of defective unit. anyway, you paid a good amount of money for it, why should u not fully utilize its warranty when you believe (i believe it too) that you have received a faulty unit? the factory cant possibly qc all the mices produced right

Ya..i agree with u but w8 for warranty time is killing me + i dont have any mouse to use as backup  sweat.gif
btw i will fully utilize the shop 1-1 exchange policy since their state 1 month for 1-1 exchange from purchase receipt date  wink.gif
i did test the test unit from other shop and the scroll wheel is smooth and no squeaky sound at all.
*
as far as i know, your purchase is just a few days ago why not go for the 1-to-1 exchange instead of worrying about the warranty. what they will do is take back your faulty mouse and give u a new one, the whole process shouldn't take more than a few minutes

ya..thats what i hope.
let say if they exchange new one, i can test on the spot right? since they will give seal unit
or possible to take another mouse? like Steelseries Rival
i found that mouse nice also  brows.gif
*
sellers wont let u test a sealed unit if u havent pay, but since the payment already made, just break the seal and test on the spot. but im not sure they will allow you to change to another mouse for warranty exchanges. anyhow u can check my previous posts in this thread for a mini review on the ss rival.
