    I forget where I read the tip (I am sure it was from another multiboxer) but mice are one thing the Amazon warranty is great for. Buy whatever mouse you like the best, get the warranty and when it dies Amazon will replace it no hassle. I have done this for an ice maker (on my 3rd portable ice maker, only paying for the first) but I never thought to do it on a mouse! I loved my Corsair Scimitar but it died after only a year so I went back to the trusty Logitec G600. I will be picking up the Corsair again when I go to replace and nabbing the warranty myself

    I tried a lot of mice and the tilt function of the mouse wheel is important to me. The Razer's cannot distinguish between the tilt and mouse wheel up/down. The Rival does and has an additional button to the right of the right mouse button. When I dual box the tilt wheel helps with strafing since I use an orbweaver for my left hand.

    Wut? You just have to remap them and you can use them like any other button.
    I have the left tilt remapped to Mouse4 and right tilt to Mouse5 (Naga Trinity).

    So....

    This is a wee late but those mechanical switches in the Razer mice are known to fail after a few months. The good news is they are fixable! Yes you read me right. They can be fixed without buying any new parts.

    Basically, these mechanical switches have a metal band that springs off the button providing a nice surgical and responsive click. The trouble is the metal. These switches come from China (not Japan, those are good for 8m+ clicks) and so the Chinese metal is a problem. The band that's intended to click becomes weak and bounces inside the switch causing two clicks for every one. The way you fix it is to remove it and bend it a little so that it's got more strength to resist bouncing. Once done reassemble and you're good to go!
