    The PWM336x in this year-or-so old Corsair does ok for me. I'm just delighted to have a mouse that fits comfortably if you have large hands- a lot of them give me cramps whatever grip I try (behave). It's probably slightly heavier than ideal for FPS, but I took all the weights out, and it's pretty tolerable- I never was subtle anyway.

    If it was an issue, I could probably take a Dremel to it, and remove some internal mass.. :eek:

    I'm not really after a new mouse pad, if I'm honest. The QcK heavy is phenomenal, I see why all those competitive CS dweebs loved it so much- it stays where you put it and has just the right balance of glide and stick. When it starts looking indefensibly manky (which happens to all fabric-covered pads), I will consider changing, read some reviews- but something would have to be very good to make me even consider changing.

    ya its definitely good better than pretty all the normal contenders like razer goliathus but artisan pads are in a league of its own IMO

    Well, I will try and remember to consider it when I next need a new pad- either it's good, or it contains psycho-active substances that seep through the skin and affect the users.. either way- happy times!

    Tbh, I would not recommend Artisan. I have a Hayate Otsu mid in large and the lack of depth is kinda annoying.
    Not to mention that its still issues with dust/some sort of material thats not possible to get away from the pad.
    But maybe the other Artisan pads are better.

    Artisan themselfs also recommends to replace ur pad every 3 months or so.

    CoolerMaster actually have some really good pads. So does Roccat, with the Taito.

    hm ya i usually end up replacing it every few months but that's because am like on the PC a lot and ya qck heavy as that edge of being super soft due to it being so soft but am talking about it more from a standpoint of in terms of glide and precision

    Recently upgraded to the new G Pro. So smooth on 144hz... My Roadhog hooks in Overwatch have never been more accurate - someone even said they´d report me for having an aimbot a few days ago. Best compliment you can get!

    Yeah, feel free to add me: Vorlon#1601 (everyone else too)

    I´m only platinum in OW though, trying to make diamond. Used to play Brood War, Warcraft 3 and Starcraft 2 competitively, so jumping into FPS games is still a bit new to me.

    I lurb my Zowie EC1-A. It is about as perfect a mouse as I've ever had. But I've got some Lana Kane/Truckasaurus/Johnny Bench hands so it might be a little big for most people. Think it goes well with my K70 RGB, too.

    Also, Glorious mouse pads are the shit. I have their XXL 18x36" monster next to a Razer Goliathus. The Razer is thinner, less durable, and softer. Gonna get another XXL Glorious to cover the whole front half of my desk in mousepad here soon. Bonus points for acoustic treatment in front of my nearfields. :D
