Topic: Need a new mouse

My trusty Logitech MX518 has started to die on me in game over the last few weeks and with payday fast approaching i wondered if anyone had any recommendations. Should i stick with a new MX518 ( http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu … =KB-060-LG ) , it has been very reliable, or opt for a G5 ( http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu … =KB-069-LG ) or another make of mouse?
This one looks quite interesting anyone got one? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu … =KB-084-MS

Re: Need a new mouse

TBH, I'd say stick with your current model if you like it and its comfortable. That or go to a PC shop and try out the different mdoels for comfort.

Re: Need a new mouse

I have a G5 and its really cool, the 3 speed toggle on it is nice especially in turrets and such where u can spin faster. It has the little weights in it but I dont really use more than a few.

Re: Need a new mouse

I have a G5 too. It's a very good mouse. Yours looks alike but G5 has more dpi

Yup the 518 also has that. The G5 is a lot more expensive too. Dunno if after 2 years i'd want another 518 or not. It is an excellent mouse and has lasted me well, Id def recommend it. Fancy a change tho

Try the MX Revolution.  KICKPIE.

(It's not really meant to be a gaming mouse, but when used as one can sweep the competion)

Re: Need a new mouse

Im using a microsoft comfort optical mouse 3000, nothing special but it gets the job done.
