New mouse?

KiiYzOo · 12 Jul 2011 at 09:46

hey guys I'm thinking about getting a new mouse as the feel of my storm inferno isn't quite right for me as I use a grip that is kind of a cross between a fingertip and claw grip.
I've been trying to see how I would naturally hold a mouse by putting my hand on my mouse mat and my palm sits about 25mm from the mat (at the peak) if that is any help, and my had is about 200mm from the tip of my middle finger to my wrist if that also helps.

If it also helps I could post a pic of how I hold the mouse as it's quite hard to explain

my budget is around £70

anyone??

What about the Logitech MX518?

Your hand position sounds a bit weird. A picture would help.

I've been looking at mice recently and one that stands out for me is the Razer Naga.

Maybe one for you too?

KiiYzOo · 12 Jul 2011 at 16:52

Here is how I hold the mouse

sorry about the quality I would've used my d50 but it's too heavy to use in my left hand

I did consider the naga, the only thing that I'm not sure I'd like is the buttons

Thats very similar to me and I love the MX518.

Maybe the Deathadder even?

KiiYzOo · 12 Jul 2011 at 16:57

I'm just not really liking the way the mouse curves in the middle though, so I was thinking something more like the naga or lachesis etc

Deathadder, it's very comfortable

Same grip as me - I'm using a intellimouse explorer 3 without any complaints at all. It's good for those of us with big hands.

+ you'll have £40 left over to spend on something else.

Thats a fairly normal 'claw' position.

I would like to throw in the suggestion of a Razer Naga.

For your budget, you can get some pure quality.

Steelseries XAI.

Yeah you already said that

the only thing putting me off of the naga is the amount of buttons on the side, as I don't play mmos and I only ever using up to five buttons (two main, scroll wheel click and side buttons)

I do like the look of the xai, especially the orange one that is supposed to come out

my friend is in a guild with a guy who is sponsored by steelseries and I may be able to get one through him

Razer are bringing out new versions of the Imperator and Mamba with dual sensors (both optical and laser) in a couple of weeks, I might give one of those a go.

DStruct · 12 Jul 2011 at 22:51

love the logitech mx518

KiiYzOo · 12 Jul 2011 at 23:05

Your right - this one looks pretty good. I wont ever get a Razer mouse though, I have had so many friends with the double click problem that they seem to have.

KiiYzOo · 13 Jul 2011 at 13:05

hmmm razer naga/lachesis, logitech g9x or rat 7??

KiiYzOo · 13 Jul 2011 at 18:45

any opinions?

Kanpai · 13 Jul 2011 at 18:48

I hold my xai in a similar way to your hand movement and I can't fault it at all. Be sure to get the Steelseries 9hd with the xai if you get one, or a 4hd

KiiYzOo · 13 Jul 2011 at 21:40

Just ordered me a Naga for £45 inc postage on the bay
