Buying: Gaming Mouse

Hello all,

Well after quite a lot of gaming my poor mouse has come to the end of its days as it now requires more pressure to click so pretty much the sensors inside the buttons have just gone completely so i am looking for a new mouse.

My current mouse is pretty much this a bog standard mouse, mine is branded by asus and came free with my notebook.

I would like to get a nice gaming one but still keep it to a small size as i would most likely be using the mouse for taking it to college and back each day. I have looked at the Razer Krait but i was wanting something a little smaller if possible.

I want is to be between the length of 100 and 120mm long and to spend abotu £35 maximum.

Anybody have any suggestions? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

 

Right handed go for logitech g5 or mx518. Left handed go fo razer deathadder.

 

From the Razer page on the DeathAdder: "The ergonomic right-handed design provide optimum comfort for intensive and extended gameplay."

(Just to prove it, if you go the Razer site, the "s" will also be missing off the "provide" on their page, copy and paste ftw)

 

Well, I have the MX510 (identical to the MX518 except in weight), the G5, and the DeathAdder here in front of me. They are all Right handed mice, that's for sure. I highly recommend the MX510/MX518. I find the G5 to be an okay mouse, but there's only one left side thumb button as opposed to the two on the MX518 (which hinders gaming and web browsing alike). The DeathAdder is an awesome mouse, but I'm not totally used to it yet. It is also a bit more expensive.

I can send pictures showing the right handed design of the DeathAdder if there aren't any available online. I'll also measure them when I find a ruler if you can't find measurements online.

 

I would recommend the G5. You can find some pretty good deals on them as well.

 

i have the mx518 and the razer diamondback, and love both of them.

just try any mouse out before you buy it, to make sure its the right one.

 

Well i have ordered a Razer Diamondback Plasma which cost me £35 with 2 Working Day delivery.

 

The plasma isn't the 3G one, is it?

I guess my problem with the Diamondback and the Copperhead is that they feel too long for me. They're 128mm and 130mm respectively. They both also feel like "finger mice" to me, with most of the movement being controlled by your fingers rather than your hand. The G5 and MX510 I feel comfortable just resting my hand on.

 

There are not enough wireless mice

 

I've got a Razer Copperhead, and it works wonders for me.
