What your fav mouse?

Try the G700... Same sensor as the G500, but wireless and MORE buttons! :P

I wanted that one but wasn't available here and decided that I would stick to a G500 since I don't really need a wireless mouse (a wireless trackball would be nice tho).

1. Razer Diamondback 3G
2. Razer Copperhead (Current Mouse)
3. RAT3

I seem to have small hands even the RAT3 is too wide for me and cramps my hand quite badly but it's still a good mouse. The copperhead is ok but not as nice as my old diamondback its just that I could get a copperhead and can't get a diamondback 3g. Razer build quallity is the reason I don't still have the diamondback (the right click became impossible to click fast) but I tried the RAT3, CM Storm Spawn (the ring finger rest is my biggest complaint since you can't really have your ring finger in a claw like shape and it is again too wide for me), Lachesis (seemed ok but the Z-axis issue is really irritating), Abyssus (awesome but that cheap ass scroll wheel is rubbish :(), Deathadder too big for me, G400 again too big for me and I basicly sent it back the moment I felt the poor scroll wheel on it.

Based on that and research I never tried the XAI, Imperator or G9x (looked too wide and sensor has built in accel whether i'd notice it or not I don't know, I doubt it).

The diamondback and copperhead shape is much better for me but really i'd want:
Perfect Mouse for me
[/U][/B]

  • Abyssus sensor / CM Storm Spawn sensor
  • Diamondback/copperhead side buttons and 2 on either side, bonus would be RAT3-like DPI up and down button by mouse wheel...
  • On board settings memory
  • On the fly sensitivity (Not DPI as in the lachesis)
  • CM Storm Spawn Scroll wheel (it's really quite nice)/Diamondback/copperhead/lachesis/death adder scroll wheel as they were all good
  • Spawn buttons or Death Adder buttons both were great else the abyssus buttons were alright.
  • A more diamondback-like shape to the Abyssus case


I guess i'll just wait till razer gets bored and rehashes the diamondback...even if they put a phillips fail-eye sensor in it i'd probably buy it :(...

@stingrae: I hear ya. My Copperhead was one of my favorite mice. It's a shame that shape was discontinued :(

Intellimouse 1.1; for nostalgic value + it's a great mouse, I love how light it is.

or

R.A.T 7; for being infinitely customisable and as a result the most comfortable mouse I've used, I find the thumb/little finger rests unbelievably useful.

The V7 Gaming Mouse is my favorite right now.  Admittedly, I have not tried any real performance mice, but this model fits my ambidextrous needs quite nicely.

I'm using a Logitech Performance MX which is, in my opinion, the best mouse I've ever used. It also looks great and fits my hand perfectly.

I guess my hand is shaped better for the performance MX than yours is.

I recently got a Logitech MX Performance mouse.  I resisted going wireless for a long time, and now I'm not sure why.  Love this thing!

I just bought a sensei, and recieved it yesterday. For the first time since I switched to left handed mice, I don't notice my mouse anymore. It's amazing.

The control I have over my games when using this mouse is the best I've experienced, and the control I have over the way the mouse behaves internally is empirically the best.

You can control lift off distance, mouse smoothing, mouse speed, etc.

The only failing of this mouse is one I can quickly get past: you have two dpi settings, instead of the industry standard of 5, and instead of flipping back and forward through the 5 options 1 step at a time, you flip flop between the two with a single button. For a great deal of games where the need to change immediately in game, this is actually superior and requires fewer button presses.

The only particular place where one needs to be able to change those settings at random like that is for those who are incapable of maintaining performance and need to be able to dial it down as gameplay goes down, or for those who just can't make up their mind.

I set mine at 1600 for desktop and games that are cursor based (WoW, Starcraft, etc.), with a DPI setting of about 4200 or so in games like quakelive or when I'm in a tank in BC2 or something, because seriously, those vehicles are intended to be sluggish as crap and it's a good workaround for those.

5 is not the standard. I have never seen any use for more than 3. you could setup different profiles for different games and uses. I have a General, LoL, and Hellgate profile on my G700.

Its fun to list all these mice you love but how about starting your sentences with this... "Compared to this ________ mouse.... I love ___________ mouse because ___________________"

Fill in the blanks.

Because I would really like to know whats the reason behind loving old school mice over new age mice.

I'm surprised more people didn't mention the Logitech G500. I've been through so many mice and the G500, to me, is by far the best mouse out there. Only problem I know of with the G500 is the mesh on the cable frays easily but it can always just be removed.

I find Microgear really useful in daily use and I prefer wired as they're generally lighter than battery mice, so G500 is pretty much the best for me (the other contender, G9X, loses as it has fewer buttons). G700 is nice but the battery dies too fast - if I find a suitable cable I could use it wired perhaps take advatnage of the extra buttons. Anywhere Mouse MX still my favorite for mobile.

Yep, mouse tech has levelled off but you can always have improved ergonomics and different styling / random features. I'll keep buying *shrug*

Juat grab any micro USB cable for the G700. I recommended Link Depot and Rosewill of Newegg.

Hmm... I thought I posted in this thread.. must've been another one. lol  Oh well.  My current favorite mouse is CM Spawn.  Been using it for more than a few months now and no issue whatsoever (my previous mouse was a R.A.T. 7, also in the pic below).
