New Mouse Suggestions needed!

TheEpicCanadian

Alright forum, I recently upgraded to triple monitor so my 2012 Razer Deathadder with it's  3500 dpi just doesnt get me from one side to the other fast enough. The main things i'm looking for are:

- High DPI

 

- Good looks

 

- Good build quality

 

- Good comfort for long gaming sessions(I palm grip my mice).  

 

-I play FPS mainly but I still wouldn't mind the extra buttons. 

 

-Price range is anything below $100 canadian. 

 

I've been looking at the Corsair M65 and the M95. I can't really decide witch one of those two though.

I have a M65 and I love it! Don't know what you mean by "High DPI" but I use mine at 4200dpi and it is really accurate. In terms of build quality, I have never in my life had anything more solid and well build in my hand. When it comes to how you hold your mouse, I have quite big hands and I hold it so it's like claw and palm at the same time and it doesn't feel too small or too big at all. Don't know about you but it seems smaller when you look at it on the internet that in real life but that may not be the case for you.

In terms of "high" I realy just want something more than lets say.. 5000dpi.

Very good. I take it in a bag back and forth from my moms to my dads so it gets knocked around quite a bit and I don't see any sort of scratches

I would get the Deathadder 2013 but im kind of anal with the colour scheme of my setup which is all black and blue so a green mouse would screw it up. I know it sounds a bit stupid....

As an FPS gamer I'd recommend the Steelseries Sensei. It's really customisable (some really smart options you can customise) and it honestly made quite a lot of difference when I was playing BF3 ESL/MLG :)

It does have the option of having a ridiculously high DPI of like 11,000 but to be honest you'd only ever want to use it on around 1000 or less when playing an FPS ^ ^. I think I play on like 350 dpi?

I've used a G500 and several other Razer mice in the past and honestly none compare.

I'd say it has very good build quality, it's very comfortable and the accompanied software is great too. I've used it for around 2 years now.

I think the sensei is a pretty good option if you can be bothered putting the time in to set it up exactly how you like. For me it just wasn't something I bothered to sit down and do when I was content enough with how I had it set up after a couple of minutes. I've had mine for a bit over a year now and never loved it, I do really enjoy the way it feels when playing fps's, but its not the most comfortable mouse to use for long periods, that said I have quite large hands and end up claw grip or fingertip holding it even though its a decent size mouse. Quality wise it also wasn't quite what I was expecting, the texturised stuff on the sides started to get bubbles and peel off within a month or two and the lcd display on the bottom has degraded pretty quickly, and whilst these aren't really things that affect how you use the mouse, I would have liked something more for steelseries's flagship mouse. The silver finish gets ridiculously grimey pretty quick as well.

That said, it is quite a good mouse, I just wanted to point out some of the negatives that would have been nice to know before I picked mine up. I enjoy it more than the mamba I had before it and nothing has made me replace it yet, although I have had my eye out, I really want to try a good quality optical gaming mouse, since I don't really use the ridiculous dpi range on the lazer sensors (that might actually suit you).

Hope you find what your looking for though.
