Your current mouse, do you like it, hows it holding up? - Page 29

Deathadder BE, basically just an upgrade from the MS Habu (coop between MS and Razor), honestly it does everything I want, except exactly the sensitivity I want, which I think I've finally nailed but no Idea how :/

Using a Logitech G5 that is now a few years old. Decided to post in this thread because I am thinking of upgrading, but have no idea what mouse to get.

Apart from buying a mouse and trying it out, is there anyway to figure out what size mouse best fits your hand?

A lot of people like the G5, but I'd have to say that I may have preferred the feel of my old Microsoft mouse (IntelliMouse Explorer? not sure what model it was exactly) that I had before it, apart from that, the Logitech is superior in every way.

Started off with a logitech g5 tried to upgrade to various other mices but to no avail. Back to the g5

g9 still going strong after about 5 years now. No wear or tear at all.

G700 on main pc going great (after g7 left mouse click fail)
G400 on spare pc doing well
Mx518 on jr's pc never fails
G5, shit cable, drops out every few minutes (bought it here 2nd hand, thx!)

Over the years I'm gone from a G5, to a G7 and now onto a G9. Not bad although I'm not overly fond of the scroll wheel on the G9, seems to have a mind of it's own sometimes.

My G400 is the best $25 i've spent. Got a G9 and G9x waiting in the wings.

Randy_Chuggs · 20th August 2012, 7:39 PM

MX518. Perfect for me, been going strong about 2 years now

For the first time in 9 years I have upgraded my main mouse. I was previously using a MX500 which is still going strong except for some feinted printing and lots of skin gunk stuck to it. I have replaced it with a G9x. For 50 buckaroos I have to say I am quite impressed with the swag of extras it comes with like the weights in a tin case, mousepad, extra face plate and braided cord. It is quite nice. The customizable leds are a nice touch too!

I will try the two face plates it comes with but I have a feeling the one that hangs out the back might be the one for me to get.

G500 shit itself after 3 months, now my less than 1 month old Lachesis decides to stop responding sometimes and has a piece inside it rattling around...

Not having much luck with these fuckers.

Just doesn't work? Or no drivers?

No drivers and Ubuntu has issues with the amount of buttons and often the buttons will stop responding for a long period of time.
