i want a new gaming mouse. i mostly play fps games but i also do some work on photoshop and stuff like that. i want at least 3200dpi cause i am used to it now, but i also want to have low dpi for games. so i want the mouse to have at least 5 buttons (the side buttons and the dpi button are essential for me). my budget is 50euros max. i have medium sized hand and i am right handed. i would prefer claw grip but i dont have problem cause i am also used to palm grip. i did my research and i am down to these but feel free to suggest me other mouse too.
the cheaper the better for me :)
- steelseries rival 100

- corsair harpoon rgb

thanks in advance! :D

G502 is about 50 quid so should be sort of the same in europe, depending where you buy from.

naah unfortunately the g502 is close to 80euros in my country :/ also the g402 even though is a good choise and is for 55euros do you think it's worth it over the other two i mentioned? i can find the rival 100 and the harpoon for 40euros.

Might be worth getting the G402, Make sure you register your warranty though, if the mouse wheel click fails then you can get a new one (My G502's click wheel failed, although i am a little rough with my stuff so it wasn't right for me)

If he can get it fr here then yea good choice:

G502 is a heavy mouse even without the weights. Not suitable for low DPI FPS players.

 

I play on 800-1600DPI and pretty low ingame sensitivity if raw input is not available and G502 was too heavy for me. 

 

I highly recommend watching this guy's reviews on several mice. It helped me realise there is no mouse out that to suit me until SS makes Rival 700 30g lighter and remover the oled display :(

I know its a little pricey but its about preference and I think the Razer Death adder mouse is great and well worth the money

noo i cant afford it. i am really in tight budget. also university student so not a lot of incomes :D . i think i will either go for the g402 or the rival 100

My oppinion:

Razer isn't that great, it appeals too much to people transitioning from console to PC, and they don't have great build quality, Just look at the amazon.com reviews of the razer orbweaver (Look at the 1-2 star reviews and keep in mind that most people review just after they get the product, not after some time has passed)

If you're coming from the deathadder the zowie ec, or dream machines dm1 should be for you

the dm1 seems really good. and  honestly i would buy it but its too expensive for me. i dont live in us or canada. the shipping costs and taxes are killing me if i want it in greece... too bad. i really liked that mouse

is it any good to buy a used mouse? not very old. for example i find the corsair gaming sabre mouse for 35euros. it has been bought 10/2016 and it has warranty reciept untill 10/2018.
it seems really cool mouse and this 35euros price is super for me. what do you think? should i buy it or should i avoid any used mouse?
