Mouse mat and Mouse

Crossy · 28 Dec 2006 at 11:56

Hi there.
I got my Eclipse II delivered today of OCUK and i have to say its a very nice piece of kit, so I'm thinking of buying a mouse mat and new mouse to go with my KB. Im a gamer so i want a gaming mouse obviously and im pretty quick in games so i need a nice and "slippy" mouse mat. I mostly play games like BF2, 2142 and other FPS games. I have a budget of £60 for both the mouse and the mat and also postage if anyone can squeeze it in for me.
Thanks Ryan

I have no idea about mats or even Mice so help would be greatly appreciated

The best thing you can do is test the mouse yourself, what feels comfortable for me might not work for you. Also it would help if you mentioned whether you want corded or cordless.

That said if you want cordless you could do a lot worse than looking at the Logitech G7, swappable rechargeable battery packs, on-the-fly sensitivity adjustment and a good weight and shape in the hand. The G5 is the corded version which has various weight inserts to get the correct feel.

//edit you don't need to bump within half an hour of your original post, if no one responds in a day or so then a bump is acceptable.

Just google for mouse reviews. Too many good ones out there to mention, you just need to find one that best suits your needs. All have good and bad points.

I have a diamond razerback and just ordered a titan mouse mat to go with it. Shop around for the mouse mat tho as they are cheaper else where.
