    Excuse my ignorance, but I'm indecisive on what gaming mouse pad to purchase? I recently ordered a Asus G73, and wanted to buy a mousepad. Now I will be using it on a desk and sometimes couch and bed, so I am guessing something of hard material. I apologize for the individual post but I have done a lot of reading and still can't figure out which one to get. Who would of knew there was so many mousepads, jeez, sorry I'm new to this whole PC gaming thing.

    Anyway... I was thinking either the Razer Destructor or Razer Vespula? Any thoughts I'm leaning towards the White Destructor but I like the wrist cushion on the Vespula.

    Also is the gaming mouse that comes with the Asus G73 sufficient?

    EDIT: I have the PS3 and a wireless remote, how am I able to hook up the PS3 remote to my laptop?

    Thanks in advance guys again I apologize but this is all new to me.

    -Frankie

    I have the Vespula and it's nice. The two sides are good for different uses, and it's sturdy enough on a couch or bed. What mouse did your G73 come with?

    thinking about going with the Destructor I like the special edition white, it's classy... :cool:

    This is the mouse that comes with the G73. I do not have a clue what kind of mouse it is, I haven't received my laptop yet. Is it a decent mouse, or do I need to upgrade? What is the name/make of this specific mouse?

    I've had very good luck with Func mouse pads ( HERE). I would suggest checking out the Func1030 or Archetype. Or, if you're more into large, thin, pad-type surfaces, look into the Func F-Series.

    In my invoice it claims it's the, " ASUS Gaming Mouse by Razer." Any difference?

    Razer, eh? That doesn't really look like any of their current mouse designs. I think they used to package the G-series laptops with the Razer Copperhead, though, so maybe they just haven't updated the invoice text yet.
