@topgear, does GIGABYTE GM-M6800 require a mouse pad?
Megamind, none of the Optical and laser mouse necessarily requires a Mouse pad, you can use them without mouse pad. But the thing is for smooth and controlled movement in games, a mouse pad is highly recommended.
Regarding Gigabyte mouses, they are far cheaper. I came to about them when my roommate had built his super rig 3 years back. He had a Gigabyte 5 btn Laser mouse with 1600 DPI and weigh control with 5 different weights. It was available at just 1700 bucks.
By the way, I found some good and cheap mouse pad also:
RANTOPAD H1 Centaur Gaming Mouse Pad Small @ 0.3K( 280X220X3 mm)
Rantopad H1 Maya Gaming Mouse Pad @ 0.3K (280X220X3mm)
The above two are small sized and their medium sized (360 x 280 x 3 mm) are available @ 0.4K. Here is the Rantopad H1 Volcano pics

These mouse pads are bigger than the small sized Razer goliathus mouse and also cheaper. FOr detail, check the itwares.
