A couple of VERY good wireless gaming mice have come to the market.  The first of which is the Razer Mamba which you can find here...

The second of which is the Microsoft Sidewinder X8 which you can find here...

From reading about them it will perform as fast or better than current gaming mice.  They have really high DPI which make them super sensitive to movement.  They are running on 2.4Ghz which means there will be a hair of latency but they are all saying even professionals cannot notice it.

The Razor Mamba is also one of the first gaming mice with either attachment you can have it wired or wireless that is why I want it even when I get my alienware laptop

Yeah the Razer Mamba is $130 but it's pretty advanced.  I think they are a little overpriced but you have to think about what all you are getting.  Not that bad after you compare them to their wired cousins.

Asus D2X? Never heard of it.  Why not go with a Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatality edition?

which lagged alot? I do own the Xfi Fatality mate. its GARBAGE. ive spent over 700 dollars in sound cards in 2 weeks. RIDICULOUS all creative. all sound like garbage and have horrid latency problems. and the support i got from them. you can guess where i told em to shove it. actaully the D2X is kicking the hell outa creative. it doesnt run EAX5 but simulates it. and runs better than creative at it =P but that comes at a price

Well I don't have the Fatality Edition...just the X-Fi Xtreme Gamer and I haven't had any issues with it at all in the 2-3 years I have been running it.  No latency issues either.

To each his own...let us know how you like the new sound card though.  I hope it lives up to your expectations!  Sounds like it has it's work cut out for it though.
