So I decided it's about time to replace my old speed goliathus (small), and it came down to getting either the Puretrak Talent or Razer Goliathus Speed(Large). With both costing about $21 each w/ shipping, which one would you guys suggest?

we dont have puretrak talend here but i tested the goliathus speed and i didnt like it
if you want a really good mouse pad buy a zowie gtf

Forgot to mention that I'm probably not going to pay more than $21 for a mousepad

talent is bad

I thought this was going to be a thread about mousepads with moose on them

What's bad about the talent?

It loses its glide rather quickly. Still better than other cloth mats I've used. It's a good pad if you can deal with the loss of glide.

I just switched a few days ago from a Rocketfish hard mouse pad to this

http://steelseries.com/us/products/surfaces/steelseries-qck-2

It was $16 here in Canada, so it's probably cheaper in the states.
It plenty big, and I feel like with some more practice I could get better with a soft pad. If you get a chance to, see if you like hard mouse pads though. They are generally more expensive unless you want a smaller one, but I personally really like the feel of them.

if i was forced to make a decision between those two pads, i'd probably get a talent

or save up a little more for a qck+ because i'm a steelseries fanboy

i have a goliathus control, not the same ofc but its done pretty well. after over 6 months it works like the day i got it. will sometimes slide but not really noticeable

I recently bought a steelseries qck heavy and I couldn't be happier. It has a huge surface area (more than 4 standard sized mousepads) and it's pretty thick.

xtrac ripper

Cheap pad, great quality, I've been using one for two years now and it still rocks.

I've used a goliathus speed and the ripper. I'm currently using a zowie g tf spawn and it's my favorite mousepad I've ever used by far.

I use the steelseries qck+ and I love it

I fucking loved my qck+...until it wore down. They're cheap and great. If you can deal with the eventual wear, there's no reason not to own it unless you go to lans frequently.

dave wears down mousepads within days. dat 420in/360

Im sorry dave, but I dont think anyone has the same problem with mousepads wearing down like you do.

desk, wooden desk.

ghetto computer ;_;

I have bin looking into this to replace my aging Puretrack Talent http://www.amazon.com/ROCCAT-King-Size-Gaming-Mousepad-ROC-13-052/dp/B006MO94QE/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1340311002&sr=8-4&keywords=Roccat+Taito

Moose's Pad

Here is my 1337 setup.

I took an old mouse pad (the kind that is like mostly rubber bottom). Flipped it over, covered it in felt, and duct taped it to my desk. I'm pleased with it. And it cost 0$ because I had all of that crap laying around.

I did actually wear down the previous hard mousepad I was using prior.

i just got the puretrak today, a bit smoother than the qck from steelseries, really well made comfortable mousepad. i also got the filco majestouch-2. amazing keyboard!
