my mouse is glitching

[DominicNikon]

my gigabyte mouse is glitching out where it cant go across the screen and just cant move. i tryed every way i know how of fixing and nothing helped. should i get a new mouse if so g502 or g900?

[Guest]

G900 > G502 imo (mostly due to the lower weight).

But you might want to expand your search as the G900 is awfully expensive.

 

And to get the best recommendations we need handsize and gripstyle. Also if you have owned any previous mice that you liked a lot tell us that too.

Also telling us WHICH gigabyte mouse would help ALOT with troubleshooting.

What are the dimensions of your hand (base to tip, side to side) and what types of games will you be playing? Also, what is your budget?

6.5 inches down to top and 3.5 inches width i dont know if i did it correctly or not. i play GTA V minecraft and battlefield g900 is the most expensive mouse i can buy. im 14 and i dont make money

Take a look at the Steelseries Rival 100, fairly cheap and performs decently, should fit your needs.

 

[MadOrc]

What grip do you tend to use?

 

Palm grip = palm touching the mouse

Claw grip = fingers bent a lot over the mouse, hand looks like a claw

Fingertip grip = fingers mostly straight, but hand back a bit

If I wasn't clear enough, here's a video:

I don't find the G502 a good purchase since the weight makes it ill fit for FPS. 

And the G900 is just too pricey (imo), you can buy 3 good mice instead.

 

If i wanted a logitech mouse i would look at the G402 or G303.

If I can afford the g900 should I get it?

Its a good mouse but imo its not worth it.

You won't say "fuck i bought a bad product" but maybe "fuck i miss those $$$"

 

It's one of the best mice out there but also one of the most expensive.

The Zowie EC2-A is probably the best. I just ordered mine actually. It's relatively inexpensive compared to the G900 and has 10/10 buttons and sensor. Here's a review by Rocket Jump Ninja (an amazing mouse reviewer):

Edit: The mouse may be a bit big, but your hands are probably going to grow a bit more and it is worth it in my opinion to get a slightly larger mouse. I'm in the same position as you, where my hands are currently small but are growing.

Some other choices that are a bit smaller; 

$65 Zowie FK2

     Very good mouse, but more for fingertip grip

$32 SteelSeries Rival 100

    A good mouse for the price, but because you said you could get a G900, I think you can spend a bit more. The side buttons       are difficult to press

$35 Roccat Kiro

     Same as above

 

 

I was going to recommend the Rapoo v300, but apparently it has a lot of sensor lag. Otherwise, it might be an amazing muse for you.

 

Hope this helps!

now my mouse is working. what is happing?

[Katsunaka]

Sounds like what my Razer Mamba TE does..

 

Just stops working for a few seconds, then it goes back to working.. I've already made sure my USB ports aren't set to sleep. 

When I try a different mouse, it works fine.. I think I'm going to see if I can RMA this mouse and then just try the new one. If the new one has the same issues, ill buy a different mouse. 

I only bought the Mamba TE because microcenter had it on sale and my MX518 died after 6 years of use.

If you want to be moneyless for the rest of the year sure, like i said it's a great mouse but if it's worth it or not is up to you.

There have been a lot of other recommendations posted that don't cost that freakishly much.

 

Personal opinion: Wouldn't buy it, would rather go with the Zowie EC2-A or Steelseries Rival 100.

 

The games you play are not that competitive and you have been using a laser mouse until now, you probably don't NEED the high-end sensor and i HIGHLY doubt you NEED the pricey wireless tech.

The G900 was the first wireless mouse that was recognized as a esports ready wireless mouse.

Previous top tier wireless mice like the Razer Mamba and Steelseries Sensei wireless have bad sensors, been too heavy and have unreliable wireless connection.

 

What benefits does a wireless mouse have in your situation? Are you sitting far away from your PC? If yes, how were you able to use your previous mouse then?

NEED vs WANT. One of the most important thoughts to have when shopping.

 

Skip the G900 and wireless mice in general for now, there will inevitably come out newer, better and CHEAPER mice with time.

 

I still think the Steelseries Rival 100 is the perfect fit for your NEEDS, it's fairly inexpensive, it performs good and it has a safe shape.

If you want something better to last you a long time, take one of the Zowie mice (as @MadOrc suggested), they are well built and have a great sensor inside for roughly half the price of the G900.
