BEST WMO replacement?

post #1 of 17

Thread Starter 
Okay, seeing that it's going to take ages for my new WMO to arrive from CHINA, and the fact no one is replying on my 'Can I save my WMO from death?' tread, I would like to know if there is a more modern mouse that would be a good replacement for a WMO.

I want: Same shape (symmetrical, small for fingergrip)
Good solid sensor with no prediction
I play at 1280x960 so I don't really need high DPI, 400 always served me well
No jittering on my QCK HEAVY.

I've been told to get:
-Abyssus: Discarded because i've heard it jitters a lot on certain mousepads such as QCK Heavy
-Zowie: Discarded because i've heard the sensor is rubbish
-Some Steelseries one: I have no idea about the sensors on this thing

Anyone?

The ninox velocity is a great replacement for the WMO but it isn't released yet. I'm not sure if his 3090 will be better or worse.

Isn't that by the guy who goes by 'bst' on esreality?

Anyway it seems it isn't released until xmas, I can't wait that much. I will buy if it's really that good anyway when it comes out.

Savu has side buttons and Zowie has a rubbish sensor.

They have the same sensor, different surrounding hardware and firmware.

I'd say zowie AM, tracking wise you should be fine @ 500hz 450dpi, just bear in mind that the main buttons are pretty stiff and its glides are pretty big so more contact area = more friction
Precious :p

Also, esreality on the Zowie:
Also heard the buttons are so stiff compared to WMO
Looks like a nono
