My brother wants a mouse, not too expensive, lets say 15-20USD tops, and with high DPI, for gaming, he now has a hideous mouse, i see there are quite a few options, but i don't know which is the best for a budget gaming mouse.

It seems "gaming" is just a marketing term so you will pay more for it.,

 

aslong as it comfy and has the features he wants (good \DPI) and a decent sensor most will be fine, 

 

what options have you been looking at?

I use a thermaltake azurues. adjustable dpi, not too crazy high though. has served me well for the last 6 years.

I bought it at $20.

The Razer Deathadder is apparently a decent mouse, but it'll usually run you $60. If you keep your eyes on some sales you might find it for cheap. I once saw one at Best Buy for $30.

gigabyte gm- m6800

 

or the logitech m280 (its wireless, no side buttons, but I think it has good ergonimics and its wireless if that counts as a +)

 

I used the gm6800 for a while.  Great mouse if you're right handed with a decent dpi for the price.

I'm currently using an Anker gaming mouse, it costs £15 over the waters here so its probably dirt cheap at your side of the pond. Anyway it's so far proved to be a worthy gaming mouse that's served me reliably for over a year now, over all its good quality for a cheap price, totally recommend it for the price.
