    Mouse suggestion for under £50

    So i'm looking for a new gaming mouse.

    Right now i'm using the following.

    http://www.scan.co.uk/products/shark...uttons-plus-ma

    Anyone know of any mouse out there that is similar size to the above mouse, i ask specifically about size as i have fairly large hands and id like to be able to palm grip the mouse,
    not really a fan of claw gripping.

    I'm right handed and my budget is ~£50

    I generally play FPS games.

    Thanks

    Re: Mouse suggestion for under £50

    I've been using a Corsair M60 for the past year (over 500 hours in Black Ops 2 with it). Its been superseded now by the M65 (http://www.scan.co.uk/products/corsa...tons-black-usb)

    Best mouse I've ever used by far. Solid construction and a decent weight (also adjustable). It really feels like your getting your monies worth. The 'Sniper' button is positioned a little too far forwards for my hand but its not something I would use anyway.

    Another option, slightly over budget, but looks to have similar shape to your existing mouse is the Razer Deathadder. I've never used it personally but seems to get good reviews.
    http://www.scan.co.uk/products/razer...-mouse-6400dpi

    I found it best to go into my local PCWorld and get my hands on the display mice, both of the above are normally in stock. Then buy the one you like from your preferred retailer.

    I think the Roccat Kone Pure is <£50 at PC World.

    Re: Mouse suggestion for under £50

    I saw this the other day, the M40 mouse (without a sniper button and there is the m45) this is only £25! Seemed like a bargain! I would grab one if money wasn't so tight, but that mouse you linked looked really good! How did you find it? Weight or long lasting buttons?

    Re: Mouse suggestion for under £50

    Gotta toss the Logitech G500 into this conversation. Solid all around mouse that is on sale a lot. Not from the UK so not sure where you should go. It has more than enough DPI for any game. You can set at least 5 but probably more custom DPI settings which can be adjusted on the go. I love this mouse and I got mine for $50 + tax in Canada. Definitely a contender for lower price mice!

    Re: Mouse suggestion for under £50

    I've used the Kone and it definitely suits larger hands. I just preferred other mice.
    I take size 10 gloves, if that helps...

    The CoolerMaster Storm Inferno is a great mouse for me and Scan usually has it for under £30 (mine was £28 a few years ago).

    I adore the Logitech G700S and although it is expensive, the earlier G700 is just as good and likely to be found cheaper, being older and all.

    Re: Mouse suggestion for under £50

    I have a Razer Deatheradder, but I'd only recommend it if you have a large hand. It takes a it of getting used to due to the raised 'bump' for the palm grip.

    My brother has a Steelseries Kana, but unfortunately it's developed a double-clicking issue. Seems fine during the time it was working.

    OCUK has the Zowie FK on the sale, as it's being replaced by a 2014 version. Worth a look as a lot of people rate it highly

    Re: Mouse suggestion for under £50

    I bought a G5 and Steel Series QcK in 2004 for ~£50, the pad has been replaced a few times but the mouse has lasted well. When I replace it, I guess I'll go with this - http://www.scan.co.uk/products/logit...le-4000dpi-usb

    What is your desk surface like, do you need a pad too?

    I'd recommend a Zowie EC1 Evo, fairly large, really nice no frills mouse, couple of side buttons, good sensor etc

    Thanks again to everyone for the suggestions.

    I went into my local currys and tried out a few mice, the g500s were very comfortable for me, going to see if i can find one on sale and grab it.

    I got my G9X for £30 exactly, it was a refurbished one though so I'm not sure you'd be able to find a new one at that price, would recommend if you can, however.
