Hi guys. I'm thinking about buying a new gaming mouse and keyboard. I was looking into getting a Razer Lycosa and a Razer Mamba.

We use Razer mice in my university, they're a lower end model and they look pretty cheap and the plastic on it looks of low build quality.

I just wanted to know if any of you can tell me what sort of quality the aforementioned peripherals are.

Cheers,

Vodouman

Not had the mamba but have had the copperhead and now have the deathadder along with the lycosa.

I think I'd be looking at a mechanical keyboard next tbh. I got the lycosa cos it matched my PC and peripherals.

I'd get that then this and forget the mamba:

The Deathadder is the ones we have in university. I just feel that the plastic round the sides looks and feels cheap. Other than that they're excellent mice. Maybe it looks nicer when it hasn't been made all gammy by all the developers in the labs

They get pretty grubby anyway as does the lycosa.

They perform excellently though and that wins every time for me.

The razer Naga is a nice mouse it's most useful on the old MMOs but the extra buttons are quite nice also for binding macro's also, I have my buttons binds to buying my ammo guns armor on CSS.

Best mouse ever.
