Which mouse?

[vullnet]

I thought about it, and i will most likely buy a mouse and a mousepad soon from bestbuy. I am looking into the g502, and the da2013. ive heard mixed reviews of the da2013, and for a mousepad i will be getting a qck+ or a mm2000

I would go with the DeathAdder.

The G502 extra buttons felt bad and mushy when I was trying a demo unit at bestbuy. I'd get a steelseries sensei.

You can go with a G600s. By Logitech, but a whole lot better.

Using both the Logitech G502 on my main rig, and the G402 on my 3rd rig.....and I'd recommend them instead. I must admit I don't know much about the DA2013 and have not used a Razer mouse since the Copperhead I had from years back.  It lasted me about 2 years before the rubberized coating turned gooey and sticky. I have only ever bought Logitech mice, never had any issue with them, my first gen G9 lasted easily 5 - 6 years, until the cable kind of got frayed. 

 

BTW, prolemur, define 'mushy'....I have it, and am clicking on the various buttons, feels about right with soft clicking sound. BTW, don't want you to think I buy Logitech only (though I'm a fan of their mouse), I do have mice from CoolerMaster, Thermaltake and Roccat as well.

i was thinking of logitech, i loved the mx518. i got large hands+play in a low sensitivity, will that change anything?

If you like the shape and feel of the MX518, the G402 would fit you to a tee. While the G502 has an egg shape (best description I can think of), the G402 has classic MX518 shape....take a look at the comparison pic below. G402 on the left, G502 on the right.

Well the buttons on the side and beside the left mouse click wobbled around and felt much worse the the primary mouse buttons.

Ahh....prolly because it was demo unit you'd tried, it's been abused and prolly dropped a few times. I was just checking the buttons on the G502, they don't wobble though the mouse wheel has a certain amount of play. The buttons feel stury in place with very little play as I run my thumb repeatedly over them.

Ok, then I guess they put out the junkiest mouse they could find Everything on the specs list looks awesome for the mouse too

 

However I did prefer the ergonomics of my g700 to the 502
