1125691 2010-08-08 08:33:00 Razer make great products, no doubt. But if there is one major flaw in their (overpriced) most expensive mouse the Mamba. Many owners of this mouse (including me) are plagued with squeaky scroll wheels, which involves taking apart the mouse to fix. It's not a major problem, but it can get irritating.

For a $200+ mouse you would expect it to ooze out quality at every inch, but this is not the case as Razer has overlooked the need of some sort of lubricant on the Mamba's scroll wheel.

Never really heard a bad thing about their other lower-end products though. Heard the Copperheads etc are great.

1125697 2010-08-08 23:44:00 The M950 is a pretty epic mouse, it can be had from PB for $105 + GST.

I would still go cable for gaming though.

1125698 2010-08-09 00:16:00 I would always use a wired mouse for gaming. Actually I would use them for anything. The wireless ones are weird...

I don't use anything special, an A4 Tech WOP-35PU. Works fine for me.
