• Optical mice are better than laser mice.
• When a mouse performs differently at different speeds, that’s a problem called “acceleration.”
• Higher DPI is better.
• Wired gaming mice are faster and more accurate than wireless.
• Your Windows mouse sensitivity setting needs to be set to 6 out of 11.
• The MX 518 is still the best gaming mouse ever made.
• Putting a piece of tape over half the sensor is a good way to decrease lift-off distance.

Found this an interesting read, thought some of you lot might appreciate it.
