Razer Mice

Hey guys

Just a quick one really

What's the most recent of the Razer mice available on OcUK

They're all the same price so not sure which is the best/most recent out of them, in the market for a new mouse so going to go for one of these as gaming will be the main use

Hoping it's the Deathadder as I am getting a Razer Tarantula to go with it, and they would go nicely together

Cheers in advance

^^ what he said.

I have a Death Adder and have been pleased with its performance. Will get a Lachesis when it comes out though just because I like to have the newest toys when I go to a LAN party

Why do you say that mate?

I just like the look of it, and some of the features sound very useful for some games I play

If you can recommend one yourself mate, I'm all ears

They're bringing out a new keyboard...

I was under the impression that the pixel skipping had been fixed (Atalan's patch did it for the DB a long while ago). I don't really see much point in the Lachesis, for a start it's going to be buggy, they're using dual beams, and I don't really see it being done right first time then there's the fact that no-one needs 4000dpi :confused:

. Think I'll be getting a Boomslang 2007 though

2 reasons to forget the tarrantula:

1 - The Lycosa, coming out soon.
2 - The Price - If you have the money and want one then sure, go for it. But otherwise, for features a G15 is a great alternative for a lower price, and if you just want the lights, go for the Saitek Eclipse for £50 less.

I myself have gamed perfectly happily on a Media keyboard for a tenner, if you need macro keys then sure you'd need a decent gaming keyboard, but £75 seems a bit excessive.
