    Have just picked this up and first impressions are really good.
    The idea for hyperfast scrolling is top notch and the ability to add weights is also a bonus (as I previously used a fully weighted MMO7).
    Clicks feel flush, and reviews about the Dpi buttons being too close to the left click are pretty laughable as thats simply not the case, plus they can be reassigned anyway.


    The one issue I have is I just went on SWTOR to have a quick 10 min run around to see how it behaved in game (ad the mouse itself was top), the problem I think lies with the Logitech Gaming Software.

    Initially had 8.58.183 installed, but the odd frame every 4 or 5 seconds seemed to freeze for afew ms making it appear to judder, which is highly annoying. Also happening on websites too.

    Uninstalled that, restarted and now running 8.58.177. It seems slightly better but still occurs. Was wondering if anyone else has had the same experience?

    Cheers

    I generally install the software long enough to get all the stuff set I want and the different profiles. I then uninstall the software and rely on just the mouse the profiles I set.
