sort of, yes... you can see this in windows by going to 800x600 and setting a low sens. Observe how much mouse-pad it takes to get from the left side to the right side

Then go to 1280x1024 and you will see that it takes more mousepad real estate to get the mouse from left to right.

Yes, this is true - go from 1024x768 to 1600x1200 & it will make a big inpact in your mouse movements . However something new i have encountered... I recentely purchased a Zalman vu9000cu for my x800pro & now i'm able to OC the gpu/memory to very high clocks (550/550MHz). The mouse behaves the same way as w. high res. :? (got my P4c 3.4 Non :wink:)


And now for the bonus ---> Update your TAM server to TAMv3.1


Edit
Haha, i got the nunbers wrong there it's a zalman vf900cu. very good overclocker.
