Razer Goliathus Control vs Speed.

Need a mouse pad for my Razer DeathAdder, looking at the Goliathus pad, which version should I get the speed version or the control version. I don't game but I have multiple monitor set up and want something that can cover it all.

They are opposite or counter intuitive speed = control, control = speed. They base the naming scheme of the sensitivity and the way the material works with said sensitivity.

Control is for low sensitivity and speed is for high sensitivity. Control has less friction and stiction(static friction) so it's faster, while speed has more friction and stiction(static friction) and is slower. It can also be personal preference depending on which mousepad you want. Along with the size of your mouse feet which can change the feel of the mouse. But the general consensus on the internet is what I mentioned about the differences.

really?

doesnt the rougher surface of the control cause it to have more friction?
Therefore, wouldnt the control be the slower one?

Just asking because I have both a razer goliathus control and a steelseries qck and the goliathus control feels slower to me than the qck ( which i imagine is similar to the razer goliathus speed).
