    Hey Everyone,

    Well UPS just dropped off my new razer diamondback mouse. I bought this thing on a whim cause i am a logitech supporter(diehard 510 user). Anyways i got this mouse for 49.00 bucks off amazon(its the limited edition plasma series) so its not that expensive in the all around. I guess ill give a little review of it real quick

    1. Packaged very well no threat of breaking during shipping.
    2. Contents were all there including latest driver disk.
    3. *Con* Drivers disk isnt user friend didnt bring up installasheild
    4 Once was open its pretty much plug and play. ^opened CS:S for trial^
    5. Blown away by how sensitive it was. Couldnt touch w/o going all over
    6. Settings menu is ok looks alittle weak the acutal skin anyway.
    7. *Con* I may very be doing this wrong so dont hold me to this i set my buttons for CS:S and notice when i went back to surfing the side buttons can no longer be used for internet forward and back buttons. Very disappointed
    There is probably a way to fix that just havent figured out how yet please post if you know how to get around this.
    8. This is the best mouse ive used for gaming yet. Accurate, Fast, Amazing tracking,( i swear improved my aim). This is truly a gamers mouse.
    9. *Con* the rocker buttons or side buttons when using them in gameplay had a delay or lag to them ie..press the button let go then the play would perform action.
    10. Consult website about above mentioned problem and was informed to change priortiy of the process in task manager.
    11. That took care of the problem.
    12 Website slick looking skin pretty cool soundtrack and***meh**sorta helpful support section.
    13. The drivers page for the latest was very well displayed and easy to use.
    14. The website could use a better configuration page..


    ******All in all this is the best ____PERFORMING____gaming mouse ive used. As mentions above tracks better response better and is just hands down fast than any logitech ive used to this point. Ergonomics take a sec to get used to going from and hump of a mouse to this sleek little rocket. Semi-cheap and well worth the cash for the avid gamer. Still need to figure out the back and forth buttons though....lol...off to do that...Hope this sheds some light...If requested probably post pics for you guys....Later BRC

    um they are good, that is pretty much there is all to say about them, I saw the copperhead and it was a little too big for my hand although the G7 fit nicer.
