Getting into the pc gaming world i want to know what you guys think are the best gaming mouses for under $100?????? The mouse i have picked out is the razor naga 2014 edition... I will be using the mouse for mostly FPS and occasional MMO games.

It's a very personal choice. What do you want? How do you grip your mice? how large is your hand? What games  do you play? 100 bucks on a mouse is A LOT! It can buy you at least 95% of the commercially available mice.

Logitech G600s is  a very nice MMO mouse, better and more reliable than the Naga.

The Razer Naga 2014 is a great mouse. It's got 12 mechanical buttons on the side and a comfortable ergonomic grip. I have the 2012 edition and I love it!

Would you like to use some macros? Sometimes useful for mmos. Grip style, is how you grab your mouse. By the finger tips/ with your wrest on the back of the mouse, clawing the mouse, or with the compelte hand flat on the mouse?

 

I'd just say CM Strom Havoc. Good allrounder, i have it, it's comfy, ithas Omron switches and isn't that pricy actually.

my wrist rests on the mouse and i crawl it.. i could use some macros.

If you are serious about FPS games, get a mouse with a flawless sensor (optical, not laser) such as Razer DeathAdder 2013, Logitech G400s, Corsair Raptor M40, SteelSeries Rival, Zowie AM/FK/EC Evo, Roccat Kone Pure Optical, CM Storm Spawn/Recon or Mionix Naos 7000.

Laser sensors have a small "flaw" that gives them a tiny amount of acceleration even if it is turned off through software.

 

As for Corsair vs. Roccat, I'd rate them both equal in terms of quality. However, I like Corsair's shapes a bit better.

[MxRider9637]

would the corsair be better for palm resting? i usually rest my palm down on the mouse and use my fingers to move it.? also is there a really big difference between the corsair m45 and the m40??

quick question why optical over laser? i was also looking at the corsair m40 and also the roccat kone xtd.

[PillowSmoke]

I use the g602 and it's pretty good.

M45 is an updated version of the M40. They both use a flawless sensor, but the M45 has a bit higher maximum DPI (not really that important) and its more customizeable (in increments of 50 DPI from 50 to 5000 vs. M40's 800/1600/3200/4000 only settings).

The M40/M45 isn't necessarily the best for palming unless you have small hands. I'd say they are better for clawing.

For palming I would recommend DeathAdder, G400s, Rival or Naos 7000.

A friend of mine has the deathadder and says its his favorite mouse but i do like the m45 alot and it would also match up with the keyboard that i plan on getting (corsair/cherry mx RGB)

The Corsair M65 or M95 are both great choices. The M65 is more FPS oriented while the M95 is more MMO oriented.

Yes. They are both 8200 DPI Laser mice.

would a optical sensor be better for gaming as Verne points out?

would a optical sensor be better for gaming as Verne points out?

 

It really is personal preference. I don't find there to be any difference in performance between laser and optical. Your results may very.

If you have time, read this article: http://www.overclock.net/t/951894/the-truthful-mouse-guide

 

Ultimately its up to the individual to find out if the laser's flaws are noticeable and/or effect your performance.
