Hey, thinking of getting a new mouse. Possibly this one:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=KB-144-LG&groupid=702&catid=23&subcat=1276

What do you lot think of it i.e. size and is it comfy to use for long hours etc? Are there any better mice out there than that one, which is NOT rechargeable and is wireless and it must be comfortable to use for long hours. I mainly play games (FPS and third person shooters etc.) and just browse the web. Will be upgrading from a microsoft wireless optical mouse. Don't really want to spend much more than the £40 region. Thanks
 
thanks for the reply but I am still not so keen on wired mice. What do the rest of you think of the logitech MX 1100 mouse?
 
i have had a wired mouse before and i didn't like it, just clutters the desk with more wires and i can view my pc from my bed at night time and a wireless mouse allows me to lye in bed and use it without restriction :D
 
ok thanks, yeah will never touch a rechargeable mouse until the battery life is improved. Would really like to get the MX revolution but unfortunately its only rechargeable and just the thought of playing a game and then getting a red light for battery life remaining would **** me off cause you would need to charge it for like 2 hours or something to be able to use it again for only like 8 hours or something and also the price is a bit much as well.
 
How long does it take for a full charge? Still probably keep to the batteries though as they would last a lot longer I think.
 
That is pretty good battery life. I have to change my batteries about 4-6 times a year and plus i can't turn my mouse of either. cmndr_andi do you keep your mouse turned on all the time even when your not using it or do you turn it off?

Just read another thread there about someone who bought a 2.4GHz mouse and is now having issues with his wireless internet and his mouse (http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18060631)

I am on a wireless network as well but the router (netgear) is in another room and I am using a USRobotics Wireless MAXg USB Adapter (http://www.usr.com/support/product-template.asp?prod=5421) to connect to the router, however the wireless adapter is at the other side of my room if that would make any difference at all.

Will I have issues with the MX1100 and my wireless internet?
 
I am starting to quite like the razer death adder blue (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=KB-023-RA&groupid=702&catid=23&subcat=1257) mouse even though it is wired. I tried my old lenovo wired laser mouse and it does feel a bit more responsive when playing FPS. I take it the razer death adder blue is a far better mouse for gaming than the logitech MX1100, also are there any better gaming wired mice than the razer death adder around the same price (not including the logitech MX518, G5, microsoft habu and also the Saitek Cyborg Adjustable Gaming Laser Mouse)?

Also does any one know how long it will take for the razer death adder to come back in stock?

Thanks
 
Thanks for the reply niko. Yeah it is a very nice mouse, I love the blue neon pulse logo. Any one else got any thoughts on the razer death adder blue VS logitech MX1100?

Also any idea when the razer death adder will come back in stock?
 
Mouse Pad for razer death adder

Also what mouse pad should I get with the razer death adder? I would get the boogie bug, but apparently it doesn't work great with that mouse. Currently looking at these two http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GS-007-RA&groupid=702&catid=32&subcat= and http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GS-009-RA&groupid=702&catid=32&subcat=, which one is better or are there any others that I should be looking at and I would like it to be quite a large mouse pad as well, would like to try and keep the price around £10. Thanks
