I need a gaming mouse.

[BghMc]

Which is better? Laser or Optical? 

[The Syndicate]

My top picks would be:

 

G700s

Deathadder 2013

Naga 2014

CM Storm Spawn

Everyone has different opinions but  I like your list. Although I think the G700s is overpriced.

[BghMc]

Well, the G700s is pretty worth right? Pretty sure it lasts for a long time

[fracking4oil]

I have DeathAdder 3500, it's good mouse but not sure it's worth the cost.

Thats really up to the implementation and what you need if for but generally optical has less faults.

Well it just launched and I really dont think it is as its the same price or cheaper than its predecessors the G700, Performance MX, MX 1100, and MX Revolution.

I have never had any mouse I have paid a decent amount of money for not last for well past its warranty. Keep it clean, change its feet, and dont abuse it and itll last. I have had mice that were DOA though or died within the first week or so but once I got a new one all was good. If your wondering how much I like the G700, I had 4 at once at one point and still have 3 including my G700s.

if your going to get a Deathadder now days just get the 2013 theres no reason not to as far as im aware.

Lol I don't really like my DA2013 after I picked up the spawn. But I use my DA for surfing the net and work lol. The higher liftoff distance on the spawn is kinda irksome sometimes but the form factor is amazing.

That's where the Zowie EC1 comes in I guess. 1.5mm liftoff and a sweet form factor coming the the Intelli and DA =)

[BghMc]

How about SteelSeries? Like the Kinzu, Kana of Sensei

A relatively cheap yet comfortable mouse would be the Xornet, yes, it's 'only' 2000DPI, but gaming @ 1080P, it's more than sufficient. It uses an optical sensor btw, and so does its slightly more expensive sibling, the Storm Spawn.....sahres the same body but with red color and better specs. I have the Xornet and I can say that I'm happy with it.....no need to look at more expensive mouse. Save the money for a better MKB...

they need tovmake a palm grip version spawn

[Homicidium]

I would recommend a Logitech G400 gaming mouse and it does the job for me in FPS games

The DeathAdder is a solid choice.

[BghMc]

The DeathAdder is a solid choice.

What is it you like so much about it? It only has to side buttons? And the sensor, that's all right?

[911^NEmeSis]

For one thing it has an awesome sensor that is in fact one of the best out of the mice currently on the market, being both prediction and acceleration free which is a thing you would be defo looking for with a "gaming" based mouse. Though some people complain about the sensor suffering from a slighltly high lift of distance, this is not something you'll likely notice nor need to worry about. The shape is overall pretty solid and most right handed palm uses like it. The mouse is overall very solid with quality key switches and a pretty good overall feel to it.

 

I personally don't really use the mouse as the MX518 is my fav mouse due to it's lovely shape. I only recommend the DA as it shares a flawless sensor and is quite a good shape while still being a no frills mouse that still offers the functionality that people want. I have however heard some people complain about it's poor build quality and not so nice coating but I believe that this has been adressed with the newer versions of the mouse.

 

Other mice that are similar that I would no doubt recommend include the G400 from Logitech and Zowie EC1/EC2 evo editions as well as the AM. These are great mice that you should consider.

How about SteelSeries?! 

[Focux]

How about SteelSeries?!

SS Kana, everything else has an inferior sensor.

Get a DA2013 if u like to follow the trend, or a Zowie EC1/2 and Storm Spawn/Xornet if u don't wanna make a "bad choice".

[BghMc]

How about G700s? 

[GamerDude]

How about G700s? 

Dude, save up your money for a better MKB, meanwhile, a Xornet or Spawn would suffice. If you prefer a bigger mouse, the G400s would be a very good choice for FPS gaming. Why spend so much on a mouse when a cheaper one does the job as well.....unless you're really into the shape and design of the mouse. I'd made the mistake of buying a Thermaltake Level 10M mouse because of it design and aesthetics, I have no problem with the laser sensor used, but the ergonomics of the mouse just doesn't do it for me. Be practical, that's my new motto, the Logitech G400s with its 4000dpi optical sensor would more than suffice for 1080P/1200P/1440P gaming.....you really don't need 8200DPI, seriously!

 

With a more practical purchase of, say, a Spawn or G400s, you can allot more money into a better MKB.....that's where it's at! ^_^

i like everything about the thing personally how it feels in my hand the materials used the sensor. The only thing I do wish is that it had 1 more button that I could program to change DPI.

If your like me and go for feel find a place that lets you feel up mice or ask friends that have them. if you need certain features in a mouse that your used to or something them look for mice that have them. i dont believe in buying a mouse for a sensor unless its the same mouse just with a better one.

[BghMc]

The g500s.

I can turn prediction off so it can be good for FPSs right?

its disabled by default in the software...

[BghMc]

So I can play Minecraft with it normally? :D

this does not dignify an answer, a mouse it a mouse and can be used for all mousing functions

[BghMc]

Okay
