Used to love my G5r. Its pretty much done after 4 years of punishment, so i'm using my replacement MX518 now, but this one has a very high pitched tone that gives me a headache (literally, i have to wear headphones to use it).
Now i'll give the claw/palm grip hybrids (pinkie/ringfinger rest) a try because i kinda like the feeling (and to reduce strain since i log long hours on a PC): ikari, spawn, naga.
I'll also try a G9x and a DA on the claw side... keyboardnoob, do you know from personal experience that the DA's break often, or is it a well known fact i should be aware of?
