>k, I know 14 year old kids who say that also
There is not much else I can say to give my opinion weight. Polling rate and DPI are of no significance when playing videogames. More important features of a mice are consistent tracking (no acceleration) at high speeds and no z-axis jittering.

No, in fact I was Mr. ignorant and didn't try it until now. I do in fact see a difference in smoothness between the Zowie FK2 and my WMO at its default clockspeed. Even when setting it to 1000hz, it is still slightly (though barely noticeably) less smooth than the FK2. I stand corrected and you were right. As for my sources:

I can't list them all but there are several threads on that topic where Quake/TF2/CS(S/GO) players talk about their experiences using different polling rates and the majority opinion is that it makes no difference playing the game.

I also tested twitch aiming on a CS:GO map for about 5 minutes each and I could not notice a difference ingame, even when focusing on the mouse movement to a point where it fucked with my aiming. Both mice feel the same to me when gaming and that is not something I can say about the Deathadder or the MX518.
