Almost everyone has reported that the buttons squeak, though, and they do on mine too. My cousin had an extra deathadder that I stole and am now using because I was so sick of hearing that goddamned button squeak | ||

It's possible to grease it to make it go away, and it's fairly easy if you have any sort of lubricant. The Salmosa and the Krait are very similar - I personally prefer the Krait (I have both, side by side, as I write this). If you're moving away from the Krait, what's your reason - so you make sure you're getting that feature / lack of problem, in the replacement mouse. | ||

Many have suggested the Salmosa, and that's a pretty obvious go-to mouse for RTS play. It's cheap, simple, and it works well. However, I think the Abyssus is a bit better, and it's made in exactly the same style as the Salmosa. It doesn't have the button squeak problem, and I find its shape easier to situate my ring and pinky on. This makes the grip feel a lot better for me. Either way, a Salmosa or Abyssus both meet your requirements and also are stellar products. | ||

This is just my personal suggestion but I think you might find this advice useful. I've used a lot of mice before and tried a lot of my friends' mice for weeks for personal comparisons. Logitech G1 - 800 DPI - Optical sensor (I prefer optical vs. laser) - Visually understated - The "click" is very assuring/responsive - You can buy for $25-30 - No software needed - On the fly DPI change Logitech G3 - Laser sensor - 2000 DPI - Same size as G1 - Has two side buttons (thumb/pinky) - More aggresive look - Huge teflon feet - Nice "dry" coating on the body/buttons - When I bought it it was priced at $99 - Software is somewhat required for the side buttons - On the fly DPI change The laser vs. optical sensor makes a huge performance difference. For some reason I feel the G1 outperforms the G3 but the overall product goes to the G3. | ||

Couple weeks ago I got my friend the PC-bang version of the Logitech G1 (it's the silver/grey one) not the Retail version (blue) for his graduation present and he absolutely loved it. I hope you are happy with it if you do decide to get it, it is awesome performance-wise and is somewhat dispensable unlike the higher price point mice. Hope you found my advice useful. | ||
