    Gaming mouse?

    Looking for a new gaming mouse as my razor diamond back broke....ive been looking at a few and found this
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cyber-Snipa-...555326-5035026

    not sure as to just either stick to another razor or change, dont really want to have to spend over £30 maybe also cheaper the better?

    thanks!!!

    Microsoft 3.0 is teh win apparently
    MX518 is rock solid

    http://www.esreality.com/?a=longpost&id=1265679&page=1

    Take a look there for some comparisons

    Personally, if you have got used to your diamondBack, just get another one.

    I'm on a MS 1.1 and I couldn't think of changing it as I'm so used to it + its an awesome mouse
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    for a 'cheap' gaming mouse id take a logitech mx518... lurverly piece of kit imo - plus logitech customer care is amazing...if your current mouse was a logitech and it died theyd replace it for you almost 100% guaranteed

    Looks aweful!

    Stick to the engines that you know.

    For something cheap you can't beat the mx518.

    Another vote for the MX series, i have used an MX700 for years, great responsiveness in gaming even though wireless.

    Dont bother with the Cyber Snipa my son has one and its very quirky. Have it on the base speed and its managable. The 2000 dpi is plain silly and you cannot have any decent accuracy. 1st one he oredered failed.
    If you really want one KustomPC do them for 16 quid.

    The MS Habu which is a razor anyway. If yoiu like Razor and havent had any problems with them stick with it. 518's are right handed.

    Ah well for sinister gamers I'd suggest perhaps the humble mx310.

    MX-series or the MSI 3.0 / 1.1 will serve you as the perfect gaming mouse. No doubt at all.

    I wouldn't go with the deathadder which ESReality mentions in their review. Just after it was released 2 batches of the mouse was recalled instantly making a 1-2 month delay on deliveries and definately making me not want to buy it.

    I have a logitech G5, works great without a mouse mat (I stopped using them when I went with laser mice 7 years ago).
