Steelpad 4D is the best mousepad ever :D better than icemat.
It is easy to clean, and many "pro" cs players use it...
check out http://www.steelpad.dk
It is cheap... only €20
I love this mousepad :)

edit: http://www.a1-electronics.net/Res_Heats ... rOct03.gif <-- better ^^; actually compairs it to some other hsf and a watercooler, using a manual heat source (instead of a real processor, which allows for less realistic outcomes, but better comparison)

hm okay... the CNPS still looks better though :D

Ya, and it cooled to only 3 degrees less, so there's not much of a difference =)

ah well, don't really know that cooler and mainboard you choosed but i think the asus is the best a64 board atm...

550W is way too much i think :/ or do you have many HDDs and optical drives? i'm fine with my bequiet 350W colorline \o/ looks sweet :D


you should have a little extra wattage in your p/s. it really helps when are adding stuff and you don't have to think about power problems.

Welcome to the forums t3hd0n \o/

And err ya..I figured, why not ^^; 550W should be good for a few years :>

Whats wrong with the free mouse mats people give away?

Take my current one, the Derbyshire Safety Camera partnership

Or my University of Durham one...

Free, and work fine... why pay money :/

Rich bastards!

:hmmmz: so, the glass mouse pads do they, are they clear? because my desk is glass and the optical mouse i use goes right through glass, so i can't move the cursor.
like a NV40 card?

Well, the 2nd and 3rd revision of the icemat are both black (well, actually..there's only one revision, the so called 2nd edition one which is only available in black, the other one is just the same as the clear one, but...black ^^;) all 3 should work, even the clear one.

Both for optical and ballmice afaik =\

I'd advise for you to get a proper optical mouse first, before bothering about professional mousepads :)

Try the MS 510 :o
