Whether it is as old as a mod that allows mouse functionality in Doom to more modern solutions like 3D-glasses or programmable keyboards, the main objective of the gamer is to find the fastest and most efficient way to eliminate the enemy. With that said, I am going to be looking at the Logitech MX518 gaming mouse.

Other than that though, it has performed extremely well over time but I will go into more detail about its performance after I talk about its specifications. Features and Design The most distinct feature of the MX518 is the ‘dents’ all over the top of the mouse. This is not the result of losing too many sessions of CS:S but it’s actually just a very clever graphic design which is usually bound to impress at LAN parties.

The shape and the overall feel of the mouse is very good, it fits snugly in the hand and with the left side of the mouse curved inward it makes it even more comfortable to hold. It has a fairly good weight, not too light and not too heavy. It weighs about 110 grams, compared to a standard Microsoft optical mouse which weighs about 80 grams. (I’m sorry if those figures are incorrect, to weigh the mice I used a baking scale that is at least 40 years old since nothing better was available).

The MX518 also slides very nicely on almost any generic mouse pad – I’ve been using a ruddy old Nortel pad and the mouse feels very smooth. The MX518 features 8 buttons, 6 of which can be assigned to different functions using the Logitech SetPoint software that comes with the mouse that I’ll talk about later. The feature I found most useful is the two sensitivity buttons located in front and behind the scroll wheel. These are great when playing games where one moment you need pinpoint accuracy then the next you need a bit faster pointer speed (eg, using a sniper then drop it for an assault rifle) – this can all be done in game and on the fly.

This function is done all by the mouse itself, no drivers are required to increase or decrease the sensitivity on the fly. Another one of the MX518’s functions is the application switch button.
