something about razer's faulty engineering or something with deathadders. oh well, it lasted me a good two years. anyway, can someone shoot me recommendations for a new one? as long as it's not too over the top in price i think i can manage.

things i already have in mind:

logitech mx518
microsoft sidewinder
logitech G500
razer deathadder (again)

i was actually considering the mx518 and the g500 the most; thanks for bringing up the whole size issue with the g500 though, since my hand fit the deathadder more or less perfectly. i guess i could consider a g9x since it's a lot more customizable and has identical features and specifications.

thanks for the help, but if you guys have anything else you'd like to recommend please feel free :)

I've used a logitech G5 since it released and I still have the same one. I really stand by it, it's very similar to the mx518 except you can customize the weight with a weight tray on the G5. Both are very old but both really reliable I definitely suggest those two as a cheap solution that will last.

Edit: there are probably way better mice than the G5, I haven't been following their new products but logitech mice have always been a safe bet. Just make sure you don't get a wireless mouse if you plan on playing shooting games or any game that requires you to be very precise for that matter.

actually, after rereading some and seeing an actual size comparison the G500 isn't much smaller than the deathadder. maybe it's the usable surface area that's different, but either way a G9X is out of the question for me since i palm my mouse more or less.

@cautioN: how is the tracking on the G5? i know it's a previous-model G500 but since i don't even play past 1800 DPI i'm not sure i'll need the G500's 5700 DPI. if you've used any other mouse like maybe a deathadder (only one i can really compare to lol) and can recall how accurate/fast it is compared to a G5 that would be really helpful :)

(G500 has 3x faster acceleration than a G5)

Really? lol
I accidently spilled some water on my mouse, and its still alive like a bosssss
Ive had my mouse since like 09 :lol:

well i shot for a G500 after all. but a new problem presents itself:

(09:03:01) <+_Ben> fdas,fdan,fasd
(09:03:03) <+_Ben> faljejwak
(09:03:03) <+_Ben> GAH
(09:03:15) <+_Ben> i didn't think i'd ever say this
(09:03:24) <+_Ben> but why is amazon so fast with their shipping
(09:03:37) <+_Ben> it's automatically set to one-day shipping
(09:03:42) <+_Ben> and i realized i didn't deselect
(09:03:48) <+_Ben> so literally 30 seconds later i go back and try to change to standard
(09:03:54) <+_Ben> and amazon goes NOPE ALREADY SHIPPING
(09:03:55) <+_Ben> me: what

at least i had a gift card.

I have a Deathadder atm and i really love it. (thanks noctis lol)
I had a Logitech G13 before and it was pretty good but my thumb kinda started hurting while using it.
Hope your new mouse will be usefull :o

My mouse was an $8 mouse that I bought to replace my $12 mouse. It's pretty sweet. It like.. allows a mouse to move on a screen!

microsoft sidewinder

I have the Microsoft Sidewinder X5, works pretty damn good, but it's kinda hard for you to get used to it if you're used to small mice, since this one is pretty god damn huge (at least compared to my old one, which was half the size).

And it's also relatively cheap, I bought it for around 30€, it should be cheaper now.
