Yeah I want LEDs, to match my case; but the Corsair is more futuristic. To help you understand, my case is the Zalman z11, so I want my peripherals to match it, roccat has more LEDs, but corsair has the futuristic look.

I plugged my M60 again and compared to my Saphira. The M60 feels very jittery, I hadn't noticed this at all, I guess it's because they released a new firmware/driver which I hadn't tried till now.
Although I used to like the M60 now I realize the shape is terrible because the sniper button is just in the best place to grip the mouse and it doesn't touch the mat at the rear end (I rely on that), plus the wheel button requires too much force to be pressed.
I haven't tried the Kone+ but it seems better than the jittery m60.

I had the Kone+ ( my pics) and it was pretty with nice flashing lights etc, but it lasted about 4-5 months until it literally started to fall apart....

Terrible build quality for a mouse of that price, the coating was completely worn through within 3 months time.

If you do get the Kone+ i have some spares in my wardrobe when you need them

I would stay away from the ROCCAT KONE+! I've had three of them and they all developed the same problem with the scroll wheel....terrible build quality and the drivers aint the best either!!!

In the end i settled for the RAZER IMPERATOR.....

Thanks for the warning... My friend doesn't like Razer products for some reason, and if I bought one, he would probs punch me and never leave me alone about it; but if it is worth it; then I will get it.
