Zowie, Razer or Logitech Mouse?

Slayher

I'm starting to get pretty serious into playing CS:GO. I'm starting to get deeply involved into the higher gold ranks, almost AK rank which is decent.

I've been using a Microsoft $10 mouse since I don't have my Razer Deathadder anymore... I'm looking to buy a new mouse.

 

What MOUSE do you guys feel is better? 

- Zowie FK1

- Razer Mouse (Describe the one you are recommending)

- Logitech Mouse (Describe the one you are recommending)

PS. If you have one of these mice please tell me how you like them, thanks!

@Slayher first of all what grip do you use? if you use claw or fingertip I'd go with the Logitech g303 Daedalus apex the g302 was my favorite I'm buying this as soon as it's available here.

For CS:GO the best mouse by far is the SteelSeries Rival.

 

The 2 highest ranked teams in the world use it, NiP and Fnatic

 

I HIGHLY recommend it for CS:GO

 

Buy it here - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826249114&cm_re=steel_series_rival-_-26-249-114-_-Product

I still will, and always recommend the Corsair M65. I play CS:GO as well and love this. If you have the palm grip, I recommend this over most (if not all) others.

Hmmm, most of what I could tell you is my personal experience, but really the g502 and the Deathadder are great in my opinion, but for very different reasons.

 

The g502 is good because, since you play CS:GO, the sensor should track slightly better at faster speeds than the deathadder.  However, depending on if you like those buttons, it could be hit or miss.  Also, it's a heavy mouse, and for me, it is way too small for me to hold comfortably, with hands almost 7.75 inches.

 

I, like you, used a Deathadder (I still do), but the first one I used was a 3.5G Black.  That had a bit of a shoddy sensor in my experience.  However, I took another gamble on Razer and am using the Deathadder Chroma (If you do get another deathadder, get this one.  It is superior to the 2013 in every way).  I have not had ANY complaints about this mouse except the typical synapse software.  It is also slightly cheaper than the g502.

 

Really, what i could tell you about it, you probably already have your own opinion from using your last one, but the biggest reason I use it is it can fit my hand easily, it's light, and it tracks really well.

Razer Deathadder vs Zowie FK1 vs G602.

Deathadder is made by Razer and obviously I don't like Razer. Build quality is the main reason.

Zowie FK1 is great, but a bit on the cheaply-made side of things as well.

G602, more grip-friendly, more buttons, wireless if you like that. The G502 is great, though nothing like a Deathadder in shape.

 

Have you checked out the Steelseries Rival or Zowie EC1-A/B yet?

Steelseries sponsors them thats why they use it.... not because it's the best mouse, if razer sponsored them they'd be using the da, if zowie sponsored them they'd be using the fk and so on

 

the rival has the 2nd worse implementation of the 3310 sensor (worst being m45)

Well, you have written it as an absolute statement, which ofc is not possible when it comes to mice regardless of any technicalities.

For which kind of Grip, Handsize, etc.? Iit wouldnt make much sense to buy FK1 if you have liked 3.0 Shapes.

Zowie FK1 is amazing if you don't need extra features. Logitech G402 is what I use right now, pretty awesome mouse for CS GO with a lot of buttons to bind. Razer DA 2013 is also a really good mouse. Out of the three i would've picked the FK1, great sensor, plug 'n' play, and 400/800 DPI mode switch. It's shape is also very similar to many Microsoft mice. (however I went for the G402 because the FK1 isn't available everywhere in my country).

Laptop: Intel Core i5-4200H, 8GB RAM, 750GB HDD, GeForce 840M

Desktop: Intel Core i3-6100, 8GB RAM, 750GB HDD, GeForce GTX 750 Ti

FK1 but I wouldn't personally suggest Razer, although I don't have any experience on their products.

I have Steelseries Rival and I would recommend it ;)

Other good solutions are earlier mentioned mice: G502, G303, FK1/FK2 or Razer Deathadder :)

How do you hold a mouse with buttons on both sides without accidentally clicking?

 

The Zowie has had malfunctioning scroll wheels that don't register or double register input. I'm unsure if that's been fixed yet.

Plz don't get Razor.  I'v looked around and they seem to be very overpriced.  Logitech is your best bet.

Steelseries pays Fnatic them to use their products, just like Beats pays artists to wear their shitty headphones. Idk about NiP tho...

 

The Rival is way too heavy to be an upgrade to the Zowie mice. Its fricken 128 Grams.

Zowie mice are high quality, are 100% Plug n' play, and have some amazing quality Teflon feet that Steelseries doesn't put inside. The buttons also feel a lot more tactile, and feel much better than the mushy steelseries buttons. 

 

I switched from my ol' Rival to the Zowie FK1, and the FK1 feels smoother, more tactile, and easier to move. It just glides more, allowing you to use lower sensitivities a lot better.

 

Trust me, get a Zowie mouse. The new Logitech mice also have similar weight problems, excluding the G302/G303.

If you are comparing Rival with FK1 then it is no wonder that the Rival is heavier, and so is EC1 in compared to FK1. The rival also doesnt weigh 128g.
