|
 |
I roll with this:
The Razer Copperhead. Basically, I wanted to get competitive with CSS, and felt my then current mouse, which was a logitech didn't quite fit. You see, I liked to move my mouse with only my fingertips, and logitech mice, I found, are not really good for that - or weren't at that time. I also played very high sens, and didn't like to move my whole hand, only my fingers.
And then I bought one of those puppies for around 55-60 euros, and was very pleased. IIRC it came cheap as well.
Thing is, Razer mice kick ass. Not from the very first moment, but by two weeks time I felt the difference already, it's really a kick ass product, and this current one has been with me for 5+ years.
What do you roll with, and why?

My mx500 died after I think more than 6-7(maybe more?) years of constant usage due to broken cable (twice).
Well it's from my employer and a free laser mouse is always nice to use
This is the other moues that is currently attached to my work notebook. And it is such a hideous POS! The scroll "wheel" is a button that you can push up and down. And no matter what, it is ALWAYS too fucking fast. And the sensor isn't any good either. I got this from work too.
And I got this one too from work. Supposedly better for traveling, but it's too tiny and the cable is pure shit as it is sensor.
Time for me to get myself a nice MX518 or something similar *wired mouse with good sensor, preferably laser*

I use G9. It's comfortable and precise. And the smooth wheel mode is priceless.

Well I used to have a G7 before the 9, which ~ of similar build, and I have to say, I prefer the 9 much more.

The mighty Logitech MX518:
I followed the Humpers' advices and I must say I'm very happy with the results, it was also quite cheap which helped my decision
I have another mini-mice for the laptop (Logitech as well), but can't remember the name.. it's quite crappy though

Currently this:
It serves me nicely, can't really complain, but I'd like to have that Logitech wireless Performance MX. It looks uber sexy and it's wireless, which would come in handy.
But me being with absolutely no money makes it hard to get one

Razer Copperhead for the moment. Will be switching it for the Razer Mamba 4G in a few weeks.

G500:
Before that: G5, MX518, MX500, Dual Optical - see the trend yet? Only mouse which fits my hand properly, it's built better than those flimsy Razer mice and with the G500 now, the free scroll mode is absolutely priceless.

The G9 is quite comfortable, the G9x isn't. Due to the fact it being slightly smaller, if you find the G9 comfortable, you might not find the G9x to be.
I used the G9 for a couple of years before the rubber on the side started falling off, so I know how good it is/was.

Haha that's true love (I'll probably end up doing the same, it's a great mouse indeed )

I almost got the mx518 but It was bascialy the same as my G7, that mouse worked well cordless for long time but finaly got put in the draw as got fed up repairing the contacts on one of the micro switches that go duff after pronlonged use.
I now roll with one of these and its a great and very handy for all my gaming needs

Logitech G9.
I don't like "round" mouses like my old Logitech MX 518, its presses against the hand in a very uncomfortable way, it does feel nice when using it for short periods though. I really like the G9's flatness, and how i can change weight and even grip, best mouse i've used, not gonna replace anytime soon. Not sure what the changes are with G9x?
