Great video dude, it definitely is strangely iconic for just being a mouse pad, I used 2 over the course of 7 years, for something so cheap they really do last. Due to wanting to try something different on a whim, I bought a Roccat Taito speed and never went back. It;s strange how a subtle difference in the weaving can change so much.....but I'll always have a soft spot for the QCK.

@ZXTech 3 года назад

It's a classic!

@LunaA6M2 2 года назад

@tattooedsailor8666 2 года назад

I had an QCK I used for years. Just got a new one to go with my Prime wireless. Steelseries improved the backing on it. Its got logos on the backside. It sticks to my desk a lot better then the old one.

@embarryy Год назад

just ordered my first one. ive been using the hyperx fury x-large for about a year now and its gotten pretty warn out plus i switched desks and its a little too big for my liking so i get a qck large. my only concern is on my new desk i had to attach 2 top pieces together and im a little nervous that the slight lift up will be felt through the mousepad because of how thin it is... either way ill find a solution. cant wait to use it

@nvmb6451 Год назад

this vid for some reason was in my recommends, by the end of it i pulled out my old qck heavy medium and damn i forgot how comfy this is. this was the first mousepad i bought thinking it was "high quality" and boy did i nail it. 5 years later and its still kicking, i was ready to buy an atrisan hein since i finally got my first wireless gaming mouse but i think ill stick it with this old friend

@ZXTech Год назад

Haha it really depends on whether you like a fast or slow pad! The QCK is really slow vs the Hien, so it might actually not be a good switch. If you were going artisan I definitely recommend the Zero, or Pulsar ES1, or Zowie GSR More. They are faster but still not too slippery

@SurfistaCamad 3 года назад

@dinosoarskill17 2 года назад

I've spent thousands on PC parts, and have built many PC's for friends, colleagues, and for our whole department at work. I use SteelSeries Mice on all the PC's I built at work because the Rival 310 is cheap and great. I use a Rival 5 series personally at home, with a big QCK pad, and a SteelSeries Arctis Pro. They're all really great products. I've had to deal with RMA once for a Rival 310 and they handled it for me pretty well. I am just waiting for my Corsair Keyboard to die to replace it with a SS.. I actually even replaced my keycaps with SteelSeries ones, too lol

@olaokolaok 8 месяцев назад

I was using a mmX ("X" cuz i dont remember the number) from Corsair, which has little to no friction, the problem is i need a little bit of control, and QCK Edge is so good at that. I ordered just now a QCK Heavy, because the actual QCK i have is small which ill use for work. Also, i had the old glass QCK when i was a teenager weird mouse pad tbh.

@ongleon714 3 года назад

Ya, man I bought a qck few yrs ago, abit cracked, therefore, I went for razer sphex v3, although it is thinner and smoother than qck, but I still prefer qck, maybe it is my muscle memory hahaha, can't wait to get a new qck back

My dad accidentally bought the large QCK classic; coincidentally, my shit mousepad was wearing down. So I asked my dad If I could borrow it, He said sure, And holy fuck, I am in love with it. It's just amazing. Not too fast, but a shit ton of stopping power with relatively high speed. And I was doing much better in valorant. I just wish the edges were stiched.
