Very good mate, keep me updated. What game you playing?

Congrats guys some nice looking setups.

Nice looking and even better to use. Palm or claw grip works great. Good weight, amazing tracking, easy to change dpi on the fly. The list goes on. It looks simple but it is so effective.

Works great on cloth mats, even though I have noticed that the 'official' XAi mate is a hard plastic mat.

Yeah i've read nothing but good. Shame it doesn't do side scrool though, i wonder if i would/will miss that....?

grr missed out damn it!

Just got my Puretrak Talent today. I'm really impressed - really REALLY impressed!

Really smooth reliable surface. Definitely big enough as a mouse mat as you can see. It's 19" x 14" x 5mm and the build quality seems excellent.

I'd be surprised if I didn't use this as my main mousing pad (over the boogie bug).

I will put the boogie bug underneath it so it will steady up my keyboard or use it on secondary PC or take it to work perhaps. But when it comes to GAMING - I will use the Puretrak - just ooozes quality.

I bought it from the US and it cost me £12.58 or something so if you can stock them valkia I'd give them a try and see how they sell. A couple of people have emailed me asking about it and it's at a nice price point.

well as they say....great minds thinking alike and all that.....or is it fools not differing! lol

pretty handy desk, tho its too small to house the CM-690 under. was originally purchased when my pc was a 500mhz 20gb hdd 'tiny' pc (think i can mention the pc brand seeing as they no longer sell pc's, unsurprisingly!)

Tbh mate, it was to small to hold my big long stringy legs lol. had to wait till my wee brother got me my current desk, 6ft of cheap school standard finish, stolen from coleraine university where he was working at. He got a bad deal, i got the desk for free, worked at the same place myself, got of with a trainee nurse lol

Already have it mate, bought on preorder, stopped playing bfbc2 for a while there, last nvidia beta drivers wouldnt let me use anymore than 4xaa, constant white screens, sorted now with the latest drivers, 8xaa/16xaf, lets my sli setup shine. Brilliant game.

Thekwango · 22 Jan 2011 at 03:29

i'm loving vietnam, tho they gotta release a couple more maps

setter · 22 Jan 2011 at 03:34

True, the maps are a bit small mate. Loving the game with the latest nvidia drivers, 112 fps average at 1920x1200, 8xaa/16xaf all details on max, lot better than black ops, have to disable sli to get it to run, even then its rubbish.

Thekwango · 22 Jan 2011 at 03:35

true that, especially compared to its parent game

setter · 22 Jan 2011 at 03:43

Ive got cod 1, 2, and the expansion, mw1 and 2, (mw2 on steam), original battlefield 2, bought the entire collection for 10 quid purely out of nostalgia as i used to play it a lot years ago, but i like bfbc2 the most, the squad thing does it for me, get in a good squad and it makes for a good game, ill admit, im not a high ranked/high scoring player but i really enjoy it.
