Mouse

I'm looking for an ultra sensitive mouse, i dont do much gaming on my PC but i play football manager. if i move my mouse dead slowly then it doesnt move on the screen, this bugs me and i want a mouse which will make the pointer on the screen move even with the slightest of touch.

what mouse would be best for that? please help

I have a Logitech MX518 mouse which does me well.

I can adjust the speeds of the mouse with two buttons, one above the wheel and one below and this does me well! can do this in game so doesn't require you to do anything in windows

not too sure if you can buy the mouse anymore, it has a 1800 DPI

Well I guess you don’t’ want to mess with software options each time you load Football Manager. So you’re after a mouse which can change DPI on the fly (most gaming mice meet this condition) and also one with a relatively high max DPI, as the higher the DPI of the mouse, the faster it can potentially move.

Any gaming mouse with 4000 DPI or above will be capable of working well in Windows whilst moving extremely fast at the top DPI setting, so should be ideal for you. FYI I can recommend the Logitech G502 (got mine yesterday). It’s just a gorram fantastic mouse as a whole, ergonomically, build quality, precision and feel wise and also goes up to a frankly insane 12,000 DPI. It's considerably cheaper at £45 on Amazon than here for some reason (assuming we can say such things here, apologies to mods if not)

Yeah it's a 2m (braided) cable I think? I have my case to the left of the desk and it reaches up and to the right hand side of the desk fine.

Wireless or wired?

Rage85 · 25 Feb 2015 at 18:27

prefer wireless

is wired more accurate?

Not really. In theory there could be the most infinitesimal difference in lag, but in practise all the major manufacturers have that sorted. Cant make a recommendation as to a good adjustable-DPI gaming mouse though myself.

anyone?

I know you'd prefer a wireless model, but at half price (£20) you can't go too far wrong with this:

If you are after wireless the Logitech G602 is brilliant.
