Drivers

The driver is one of the things that define a gaming mouse, in my opinion a good gaming driver should feature acceleration control and an easy manageable user interface that is quick and intuitive to use. The driver used by OCZ is something you would expect to find bundled with a cheap Logitech mouse or HP mouse. It only sports two native gaming features and that is the macro function and the separate X/Y sensitivity.

The OCZ Equalware driver was quite easy to install.
Once you have them installed a little tray-icon appears (the OCZ icon is the outer left one).


Here you can see the main driver screen and the pointer selection tab.



Even though I wouldn't describe the OCZ Equalware driver system as a gaming oriented one, it does have some semi-useful features. Take for instance the LuckyJump / NetJump feature, you can assign this feature to a button on the mouse and when you click it you get a little neat customizable bar on the screen that houses some useful browsing functions.



The hardware tab is just like the one you find if you enter the Windows mouse controller software via the control panel.



The Equalware-Jump lets you set two axis specific sensitivities, this feature can be useful if you play some strange games.



The motion and Wheel control tabs are standard. They let you control the same stuff as the Windows mouse controller software.
