What Is Your Mouse And How Do You Hold It?

Thanks! I think i'll grab the K90 or something too.

If you're an FPS player, keep in mind the M90/M95 has unavoidable acceleration. As for the keyboard, try and wait for the K70/K95 or get something else, so you don't end up with rubber domes ruining your keyboard.

No worries, and in case you didn't know they recently released the successor to the M90 called the M95 which addresses the issue with the stiffness. I tested it out at a local store and there is a difference but it will come down to personal preference. The M95 comes in 2 colours...Arctic White and Gunmetal Black. A higher dpi sensor of 8200. Also you might or might not want to wait for the K95 to be released soon which will have a fully mechanical layout and will also come in 2 different colours: Black and the original aluminum.

I have three mice for my three rigs, for the main and 2nd rig, I have these:

I had a Thermaltake Black Element that I palmed.

Just got a Corsair M95 today though. Still getting used to it. My hands are too big for a true palm grip.

I use the CM Storm sentinel advance 2, it's fantastic !!!  I'm holding it in the palm and i have big hand and many small mice can't even fit me as my finger are 90 degrees to click on them

 

my wrist barely touch the mousepad when i use the mice in gaming so it's really palm and i move a lot, it's not the wrist that works, the entire arm move...

 

i owned many mice and from 2000 erra to now, it's my favorite, maybe i'll change in the future but from what i've seen i'll not change it until it will broke...

 

PS: only complaint, the material on it degrade a little over usage after 6+ months...

I use the Razer deathadder v2.

It sucks left nuts pretty hard.

The lift distance is like a full 1cm and I'm not even exaggerating!

I hold it like a palm only with my fingers clawing, like a combo grip :)

I use a Corsair M60 with fingertip grip. It's been performing pretty decently so far, I'm not using any of the weights at the moment which keeps things nice and light.

I have that mouse too and I really love the shape and glide of it! But I'm thinking about upgrading to a Deathadder 2013 just because the sensor is more accurate and doesn't have built-in acceleration.

I also switch a lot between the palm and claw grip.

G400. Now I have a rather interesting grip. I rest my fingers on the click in a fingertip positing, I claw grip the side of my mouse with my ring finger and my thumb and rest a little of my palm on the very back of the mouse. I'm weird

I'm using a razer deathadder black edition and I palm it.
