no, didn't forget about it, 1st because this is the first I've heard of it, and 2nd it never came up through the search parameters when I looked up the others.

Mice > Logitech > Laser > wasn't listed under them earlier, otherwise I would of posted it...

as usual newegg is having issues with their site again with searches. sometimes I'll do a search for example like Powersupply's, once you narrow it down to a given Wattage range, you can narrow it down even further for wattage rating and sometimes newegg will pop up a message saying there are no results with in that range, meanwhile, do the search again, don't go to the 2nd Wattage search, just the first one (like less than 500W, etc), and you can find a PSU with the wattage amount you were looking for.

for example, say I was looking for a 430W unit, I'd narrow it down to 400-500W range, then further by doing less than 450W in which case any unit less than 450W should come up, but newegg gives a BS message about no results.

so attempt #2, you narrow it down to 400-500W range, then search manually for the PSU's with 430W ratings and you find them fine.

it was probably something screwed up like that, as to why i didn't see that mouse anyways,

anyways, looks like I found an "affordable" replacement for the G5 I have now.

unless that Coolermaster one comes out soon.

still need to find a good gaming keyboard, that will fit on my keyboard tray/shelf.

I like the G15's but the screen can't be seen on my shelf, and wouldn't fit opened up anyways.

G11 would be a good option, but the extra keys would take up any remaining space on the shelf I use for my mouse...



what I really need is a whole new desk, period, to fit the keyboard and mouse on. as well as Joystick and throttle controllers too.

The mobo is out of stock maybe i can find another similar board on here

[thePh@r@oh]

maybe this one will be the replacement
Newegg.com - ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Intel Motherboards

I'm gonna sit back and wait for responses

That's not a bad board, but I would check into the bloodrage instead.
Newegg.com - Foxconn BloodRage GTI LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Intel Motherboards
It's cheaper, has the same options the Asus does, and seems to be fairly popular. I hear it's name thrown around a lot on other forums.

Also, the motherboard is shown as being in stock here.
Newegg.com - ASRock X58 Deluxe LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Intel Motherboards

EDIT:
As far as the mice you've picked out, I've never used any of them, so I can't really offer any help.

[ShyguyXPC]

can't comment on the mice selected either, but I do know iHome is usually an El Cheapo Brand of mice and peripherals, so not sure how well that laser mouse would last.


if it were me, for that price range, I'd look at some Of OCZ's mice they have, their all about $15-20 range, and should be as good if not better than that iHome model.

plus OCZ is a well known name with some pretty good Customer service as well.

though their main arena of expertise is RAM and Power Supplies.
