Support NeoGAF

[arstal]

Trackball GAF represent

I use one of those also.

 

[Lolligag]

Been using this for 10 years, haven't seen any need to change yet!

I can't live without side buttons anymore. It's just weird going to someone's computer with a plain mouse with that.

I use a G9.

 

[Broadbandito]

Razer Death Adder.

Best side buttons in all of gaming.

this over and over again

Logitech G500

Used to use the MX510/8 Love the G500. IMO Superior due to being able to weight it.

Upgrade from MX518

 

[Kryptonic]

I have an MX510. I need to replace it though, getting pretty worn down.

 

[Sinatar]

I used the Logitech MX518 for a long while but have since upgraded to the G5 which is a hell of a mouse.

 

[switch-it]

Roccat Kova

 

[Caesar III]

I've had the older one now for like 4 years (MX Laser). The battery still charges fast and lasts a LONG time. I don't know how they do it.

This. (MX 1000 for me)
And I like it.

 

[tehrafe]

big and comfortable for my wrist

 

[Cindres]

I have a copperhead, but i've been wanting a DeathAdder since i used one at a LAN Cafe a few months back.

 

[Rahul]

+1 MX Revolution or MX 1000 depending on where I am.

Used to have a g9, but it gave me hand cramps so I bought a Sidewinder X8


which is actually pretty damn awesome

[Procarbine]

Logitech MX-620

I really like it.

 

[Nakazato]

I got a G9

 

[dock]

Logitech MX-620

I have this mouse, and I find it annoying :/ It suffers from the problem of super-stiff mouse-wheel, that many modern logitech mice have. The middle button (wheel) requires so much pressure to press that it's uncomfortable to use, especially if you have to hold it down.

This probably isn't an issue for gaming, but I do 3D modelling and it sucks for this. I had to assign the 'search' button as middle click, but it's very weird having my middle click be a small button to the left of the main/left button D:

Oh, and I need to use a happ mousepad on my desk, because my wooden desk is too shiny for its laser. :/

Can anyone recommend a similar non-logitech mouse? I've bought two logitech mice in the last couple of years with this super-stiff mouse-wheel problem, so I'm giving up on them.

[Magni]

Lachesis - fine for the first 6 months, drivers or laser has issues from time to time now. Most likely drivers.

Same (including driver issues, still need to get those fixed..)

 

[Wallach]

+1 for the MX518. Love the thing. Have had it paired with my G15 for a long time now and haven't seen anything new since that compelled me to make another purchase (except for my N52 TE which is really more of a compliment than a replacement for my G15).

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Logitech G7. For how long, I don't know. 2-3 years now I think. It has been amazing for me. I did, however, have to get it replaced recently through warranty due to the mouse starting to be randomly unresponsive. Sent it to Logitech and got a brand new replacement pretty quickly.

 

[Blutonium]

So, so good.

Love this mouse.

 

[deleted]

Razer Diamondback for me (red). Been using it for 6 years now and will only get an new one if it breaks... Its fast, it fits and its wired. Best mouse I ever had.

 

[O.DOGG]

I've been using this for as long as I can remember and I simply cannot use anything else.

That's what I've been using for the past 6-7 years. I'm on my fourth one (though it's a black version), and I'm thinking about buying another one soon. Great mouse. Wouldn't consider anything else.

 

[Hazaro]

Another MX rev owner.

I'm sitting here with my 518 and wondering if I should go back to a bigger mouse.
The x8 is tempting...

 

[Slayer-33]

MX310 bitches :lol

 

[cann3dheat]

Question for some MX Revolution owners out there:

Anyone have a broken one that they'd be willing to sell me the USB receiver to? I can't seem to find mine, and with shipping they're $20 from Logitech

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

I've been using this for as long as I can remember and I simply cannot use anything else.

God, I loved this baby.

At the moment I'm using some cheapo wired Genius model. I'm not really into competitive gaming and for everything else it gets the job done.

EDIT: This one:

 

[whatevermort]

When my MX518 broke I accidentally purchased this piece of crap:

The Sidewinder X3. It's janky, juddery, slightly clumsy to hold and the wheel has these vertical grooves in it that get dirty, deposit the stuff inside the mouse, and that makes the wheel movement sticky and horrible.

I don't love it, and will be buying a new mouse very soon.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

Saitek Cyborg V3 (non-motorized version)

on the fly DPI change,multiple profiles (but i haven't got deep into that yet) fits my hand pretty well and has good weight to it.

 

[Cdammen]

I've got a Logitech MX518.

If/when it dies, I'll get another one. I've had this one sex years.

(EDIT) The Microsoft mouses are also very good.

 

[UFRA]

Logitech G5.

Weight configuration:

4.5g weights in the 4 corner spots, with the 1.7g weights in the 4 spots in the middle which form a diamond shape.

 

[NIN90]

G5 fucking suuuuucks. Pointless weights and it went haywire all the time when I did a quick movement.

MX518/DeathAdder/IME 3.0 4 lyfe

 

[vanty]

MX518 like almost everyone I guess. Pretty good, will probably get a Razer something eventually.

 

[DanDeschain]

Can somebody recommend a good gaming mouse under $40?

 

[luffeN]

to all MX518 user: if you mouse dies, go and buy the G5 Refresh. It's the same but better

Can somebody recommend a good gaming mouse under $40?

well, the Logitech G5 Refresh is 35 Euro, so you might find it for under 40$

 

[NIN90]

to all MX518 user: if you mouse dies, go and buy the G5 Refresh. It's the same but better

No, just no.

If you actually want to upgrade from an MX518 then go for a DeathAdder.

 

[luffeN]

No, just no.

and why not?

edit: I don't really get it. Look at this picture here If it's the price difference, okey, but why buy an older mouse when you can get a better one? Playing with the max dpi settings and sens 1 in CS no mouse accel etc. is a blizz, it's more accurate. Although I made the jump from an MX510 to the G5

 

[Haunted]

Same here.

No need for fancy pants sidebuttons!

 

[glaurung]

The Razer Mamba.

Possibly the best mouse I've owned in the last 10 years.

 

[NIN90]

and why not?

- pointless weights
- texture on the mouse feels weird
- it spazzed out like crazy when I made quick movements
- increased price for minimal upgrade. the logitech way of business!

 

[PetriP-TNT]

I don't know if I can be considered a PC gamer anymore but when I was still actively playing (and the mouse I am using right now to browse dem interwebs)...

Razer Diamonback Plasme LE

Best...mouse...ever.

 

[Tonza]

Have been using this for atleast 6-7 years:

Great mouse. Though I will probably buy a new one shortly because the IM3.0 is really worn out and buttons are pretty loose. Going with Steelseries probably since they don't seem to have excess of buttons.

 

[NinjaTehFish]

PC:

G9 FTW!

-weights you don't need to use.
-come on..
-do you have a mousepad which consists of a photograph? I don't even have the drivers installed and I can make quick movements like hell
