    hey guys. I bought the 1800dpi 3g infrared deathadder mice like a month ago, been using it since.
    I play games with high sensitivity, and i heard deathadder was made for people who play games with low sensitivity.
    And if you go to razer website, deathadder (new one) is 10$ cheaper than the copperhead. :confused:
    I'm getting a free copperhead mice with my G51J-A1 laptop. So here's my question.
    What's better?
    Old deathadder or the copperhead?

    I'd say the old DeathAdder. If you're right-handed, it's way more comfortable than the Copperhead, which has an ambidextrous symmetrical shape, and the Copperhead's DPI advantage is negligible (2,000 vs. 1,800). I used the original DeathAdder for almost a year before upgrading to the 3,500 DPI model, and it was great.

    If I were you, I'd wait to get your free Copperhead (that's pretty nice for a free gift :p), and then try them both out. See what works best for you. ;)

    The sensors are pretty much equal with each other, so I guess it just comes down to which one you find more comfortable.
