    Gaming Mice

    Hi,

    Not sure if in the right place for this but I was looking for a little guidance on gaming mice. I was thinking of ordering the Logitech MX518 with my system but the G500 is not mure more expensive. Is it much better? I have never even used a 'gaming' mouse before and there's a lot of options.

    Thanks

    Re: Gaming Mice

    After reading the review/conclusion at the link below (custom PC magazine), I went with the MX518 as it seemed to have the best cost benefit ratio. It’s been a great mouse for the month or so I’ve had it and the programmable buttons have made a nice addition in online MMORPG’s. Not tried the other one you mention but I’ve zero regrets about the MX518.

    Regards.

    Ross

    Hi

    I am a big fan of the MX518 I have one of these with each of my systems upstairs and will always opt for the MX518 over any other make or model, the G500 though it looks the same it doesnt have that same feel in my opinion

    Cheers

    Ben
