Best gaming mouse?

cHk4 · 28 Jul 2011 at 14:19

What do you all use? Currently using a G5 I think it is and I love it but feel a slightly better mouse may be good.
Looking at Roccat mouses are they any good? Or should I just stick to something like a Razor Naga/Mumba or w/e.
Was looking at

Thanks

I like my Razer Deathadder.

I had an awesome G5, it broke (old age), got a 50% off code so got the G700.

Both are very good mice but I would say the G700 is certainly a step up from the G5.

MX518 (G5 was rubbish in comparison when I tried it).

Swifty55 · 28 Jul 2011 at 14:31

MX518 or maybe try the new G400?

Left handed DeathAdder

I am very happy with my MX518, but i went straight to it from a cheapo £5 mouse so can't really compare it to any similar ones

I've used the G5, DeathAdder and currently the Gigabyte M6900. They were all good but I rated the G5 the least out of them, still a good mouse but not quite to my liking despite having the most robust build quality.

Steelseries XAI. Simple but effective.

Best mouse ive used for gaming by a mile

A classic... Intelli Explorer 3.

Not specifically a "gaming mouse" per se, but it's damn good for gaming.

I only have the 1800 dpi version though, and this cheapo Gigabyte one is better than that one:

I'm ordering it though because my LMB is really dodgy and difficult to click and hold

.

Shame because I have the limited edition guild wars one.

Or no, I'll have this one, I didnt realise it had lights from the picture, but it does have customizable lights

Bah, the LMB on my deathadder barely even clicks anymore, it is several years old now though I think, though I'll check if it has any warranty left.

Everyone reccomends the MX518, it's a very good mouse but it's not the best. One of its problems is that is has path correction, which is not a good thing if you play high end FPS. I would say the Steelseries XAI is the best currently.

bhavv · 28 Jul 2011 at 16:25

Ah my deathadder was bought in 2008 so it wont have a warranty left. I didnt want a new mouse because it was hard to find an orange lit one, but the gigabyte one I just ordered can have its back light customised to orange

The review also says this:

Finally, we have the awe-inspiring sensitivity tab. With an actual maximum 6,030 dots per inch on both the X and Y axis, this mouse takes the crown as the most-precise, highest resolution mouse on the market.

Overall, the Gigabyte GHOST M8000X Gaming Mouse is easily the best mouse I have used to date. From features to aesthetics and to feel and comfort, it cannot be beat at $60.

I should be happy with that for a few years
