Your current mouse, do you like it, hows it holding up? - Page 27

chi · 2nd August 2012, 10:03 PM

Been through a few mice over the years, but i always go back to my mx518/g400. Works really consistently on all the surfaces i've thrown at it and passes the rage test with flying colours. the only thing i dont like about it is the wheel, i was hoping they'd do something about it with the g400 refresh but it was not the case.

Currently using them on an artisan hien mid and an icemat depending on my mood.

btw C0L0N3L, where'd you get that skin, looks really awesome

REALLY wanting to get a Corsair M60. Anyone got any feedback on that particular mouse?

Switched from a G9 to the M60. Took a few days for the hand to start to get used to the change. Love it now and will not go back or change until something stands out as much again.

Saw this massive mouse yesterday on a workmates desk. Apparently it aids in RSI. It was unbelieveble in size.....looked like a starship vessel!

My R.A.T. 7 Contagion arrived today. Absolutely love it, even compared to my G9x. It is holding up well. After an hour it's still working :P

I love that, after an hour's use.......

I suppose you beat the crap out of it just for daring to plug itself into the back of your PC........

I'd be very confused if it tried. The back of my PC has no ports

I have a RAT 7.
I broke it when I tried to adjust the thumb rest to a reasonable position.
Also it gave me pinkie cramps (common problem with my super long fingers)

Didn't they do any testing before they released it?

Sadly Andre the Giant wasn't on hand to simulate your hands

Edit: I have tiny hands. Same size as my girlfriends and I even wear small latex gloves at work.

sidewinder x8
had it for a couple years.
will own it til it stops working (properly dead i mean, ie, not just dead battery - which is replaceable)

when i do ever replace it, likely be whatever the equiv of the corsair m60 is at the time

Have a steelseries xai atm. Good mouse but wear and tear appears easily, maybe I game too hard? :P

Was looking at getting a nice wireless mouse, any suggestions?

You have a Xai, it's hard to leave that for a wireless mouse. everything will feel like slightly laggy or delayed.

Still using the old white Intellimouse Optical USB, since 2000 i believe. Wow, a 12yr old mouse!! Still works great too!

Have had... Razer copperhead, diamondback, deathadder, logitech G5, g9, ttesports saphira and now a razer mamba.
But looking to move it on and get a R.A.T 7 or a sensei. Can not make up my mind, I find the mamba to be to skinny for my large hands, otherwise it's been great.

Favourite has been the diamondback and the g9 so far
