Go to solution Solved by JustAGuy,

Can I just ask, how'd you make the links clickable as in "Link to brand site" is clickable rather than having the entire URL printed out?

You highlight the word and theres a hyperlink button (chains) click on it and put the url in.

This mouse http://www.amazon.com/Etekcity%C2%AE-Precision-Programmable-Ergonomics-Switches/dp/B00H7MABE4/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1411948135&sr=1-1&keywords=etekcity+scroll+t-140

Or this mouse http://www.amazon.com/Perixx-MX-2000IIB-Programmable-Gaming-Laser/dp/B0083H4NG4/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1411948189&sr=1-1&keywords=perixx+2000

 

If anybody owns either please, FEEDBACK.

 

Also, any other mice for around $30 US that have some green LED's/completely black design and function buttons with 3000+ DPI availbible. I'm trying to do a green build setup so the green LED/ completely black design would look great.

 

Thanks

The "Etekcity Scroll T-140" one looks like a direct rip-off of the Corsair M65...

Neither. Save up and get some kind of Razer mouse. Only half decent ones I can think of that are green. The M40 is usually around your price range, but I think it only comes with red LEDs.

I can see some resemblance but not a ton. That shape isn't a "Corsair thing" per-se.

 I hear pretty hit or miss things about Razer's build quality. I can't seem to find any obvious "THEES BRAND IS BAD" stories about Perixx or Etekcity. Also, red and green just make Christmas and would clash with my (green) room and (green) NZXT case.

I know you were looking for something with a green and black color scheme but, If you looking for something cheap but "works" I'd definitely recommend THIS mouse. I actually just got this mouse a week ago and its been working great. The quality is very nice even the packaging, and has a nice matte finish to it. Although its a blue and black color scheme if your looking for a cheap mouse that you can actually "use" well and can last, I'd definitely recommend this one. (Link to brand site)

Wow, I was trying to use HTML to make it work...

Was looking too hard I guess.

Also, to all, think I'll be getting the Perixx mouse.

I have a Razer Deathadder 2013 and it's damn fantastic. IMHO Razer does stuff well

Perixx MX1800 has a better sensor than those two laser mice. On most mice you can turn off the LEDs if they don't match, by the way.

 

If you are able to raise the budget then you might be able to grab a CM Storm mouse (Spawn, Recon or Alcor) which are great. Maybe even Logitech G400s or Corsair M40.
