I'm looking to buy a gaming mouse but I'm not sure what one to get

Some of the mice I've looked at are;

Razer Naga
Steelseries Sensei
Logitech G700

If anyone can recommend/share their mice experiences with me to which one i should get
 
I had a Logitech G5 which has the classic design used by the similar G400/G500 and is such a comfy design.

I now have a Corsair M60 which at first glance looks like it wont be as comfortable, but it is.
 
I have the G700 and I have to say its by far the best mouse I've used. It's unbelievably comfy! It's design is a huge improvement over the G7

I have a fingertip grip i think, would the m60 suit me?

Logitech G500 wired mouse here, same shape as the G700. Very comfy mouse to use. Regarding the G700, i personally prefer a wired mouse. Had a G7 once and had a few issues with it such as cutting out and battery life wasnt great.
 
I too have the G700, very comfy and all the extra buttons are great for me on BF3 as they are set to certain keystrokes, making it much faster in game for me.

Also the ability to charge whilst gaming is brilliant too, with a logo that pops up on screen to tell you it's at low charge.
 
I've been looking into a steelseries keyboard and its usb but comes with a usb to ps2 adapter

I hear ps2 is better than usb but would converting usb to ps2 be same as usb since it isnt a ps2 line, jsut a converter?
 
I have both the Sensei Pro and the 6GV2.

The Sensei is a beautiful piece of kit but at a price. If I was in the market now I would probably get the Sensei RAW rubberised as it is a fair bit cheaper without all the customisations (which are overkill imo).

Out of stock though.

The 6GV2 is a simple, no gimmicks mech keyboard which still makes me smile every time I use it. I did use the PS2 connector but took it off after a while and just use USB. A couple of milliseconds slower in real time gaming is nothing.

You can be safe in the knowledge that if anything were to break, their RMA service is top-notch as well.
 
I'm a fan of Razer mice, I've had my Deathadder for many years now, it's on it's second set of mouse feet still going strong.

For my size hands, which are average male ones, I find the Logitech's really made my little finger feel cramped while holding the mouse and after long use it wasn't comfortable. I think Razer shape is much more ergonomic. I do remember my MX510 feeling more accurate though.

I like to grip the whole mouse, the Razer lets me do this without feeling awkward or cramped.

I guess I have this claw grip you speak of. ;)
 
I can reccomend the Saitek Rat 9, I'm using the latest drivers and any tracking problems it had are now gone. Still has the lift off issue but this I think has been lessened quite a bit.

It used to track oddly on some surfaces, but it seems to be all good now.

If you don't want wireless could get the Rat 7, its identical except its wired afaik.

I cant handle how over the top rat mice are tho
 
Razer deathadder is the mouse to go for perfect for gaming and long life on it may have to replace the rubber grips on it after awile though but that is only because of how long it lasts
