New Gaming Mouse?

waterproofbob · 18 Feb 2008 at 00:03

mmm I love my G5, had a mx518 before and that was superb. The G5 is even better.

G7 was awesome, I really don't get why they stopped making it.

gonna nip into the shops today see if i can try, and see which one suits me best!! Does anyone know if the g5 is the similar shape and grip to the mx510?

krait for the price. essentially a db without the side buttons

deathadder if you like the renowned ie3 shape

I bought the Razer Deathadder and love it, worth giving a go.

Can anyone advise as to which gaming mouse to purchase next, i have an mx-510 at the minute but think it is a bit clumpy! Playing mainly COD 4 and FPS, what can peeps recommend?

What do you mean Clumpy, The MX510 is/was one of the finest gaming mouses ever built. I've gone up to a 518 now for the on the fly adjustment option which is Superb. Same shape size as the 510 though so Clumpy :confused:

pumaz · 24 Feb 2008 at 19:03

My Main Rig, HTPC, MacBook and even Kids PC are all hooked up with MX518's and have been for years

g00dsh0t · 24 Feb 2008 at 22:25

keyser · 25 Feb 2008 at 02:21

yup i really shouldn't drink coffee after 6.. also +1 for MX518 (mouserate @ 500Hz, accel off) and an Everglide Titan Minimat !

logitech G9 and G5 are btooh exceeltn mice. G9 requires a little getting used to, but works like a charm once you have it up and running, and being able to carry your own profiles around and stuff are very useful...

Until recently I used the Cordless Desktop® MX™ 5000 Laser.
The cordless mouse is great to use but I decided to go back to wired mouse/keyboard for gaming purposes so purchased the G15 and G9.
The G9 is great to use, especially with the weights drawer full

I've always thought weights in mice was the most pointless thing ever. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpal_tunnel_syndrome

Do put weights in your shoes if they're not heavy enough? Does any sports person do that? If you keep missing shots in games, you need more practise, not more weight

Razer are the best gaming mice creators.

I personally use a Deathadder and its amazing.

DO NOT get anything but a Razer mouse
