    Hi guys,

    I'll start off by saying that is has to be from the Dell/Alienware website since I have a credit there.

    I'm currently using a Logitech wireless laser, but I have BIG basketball hands and it feels like I'm getting carpel tunnel after I play for an hour because it's so small.

    My friend suggested the Razor (9 button one), but it looks like a thin banana made for dwarf hands. I was also looking at the Logitech G9, since it had weight/thickness adjustment but I'm not sure.

    I'd like something very comfortable and my budget is 130$.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply.

    Regarding the Razer Death ...I'll grab that one then since I also have gorilla hands ;)

    @ first post ...the alienware mouse is too tiny, I already checked :)

    Too many dwarf-hand mouses these days though. I wish they had a mouse line dedicated to basketball/gorilla hands

    Anyone know how does the size of Logitech MX950 performance mouse compare with Deathadder? My cousin had a Deathadder which I tried which fits my hand very well and comfortable, looking at MX950 i'm afraid it seems quite a lot bigger and probably too big, but the design seems a lot more comfortable.

    I also have rather large hands, and I find the logitech performance mouse mx to be the most comfortable. the button placement is perfect for me, and even though it's not sold as a 'gaming' mouse' i find it fantastic for gaming (although i dont play fps other than borderlands). I dont find the razor mouses to be comfortable. you may also want to check out this adjustable gaming mouse from madcatz: Cyborg R.A.T 7 Gaming Mouse
