Wow, this mouse actually looks Amazing. I would recommend the Razer Abyssus or any generic mouse with no special macro's. | ||

Stay away from laser mice, they are inaccurate. New BW:R goes off your native resolution with mouse speed so 400 DPI seems a bit low now if your playing with 1920 X 1080 I've got 2 logitech mini opticals that I don't use anymore. There is a doc from a reddit thread about lightest gaming mice and the DPI's. https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/3jrsnn/lightest_possible_gaming_mouse_with_reasonable/ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZzbKDmFOqsP_ut2RdctD01OEbZzbXol6HLwqVkSmZcg/edit#gid=0 Honestly I would just get what scan suggested though. Higher DPI version of the old mini optical basically. Commatech FKMini | ||

At least the MX518/G400-series has a chord problem. almost 7 years with g400,not a single problem,the only one is that if he breaks idk what i gonna do with my life.i tried to prevent this by getting a razer abyssus this sh*t broke after 2 months.and tbh the worst mouse ever.. | ||

Think i replaced at least two MX518 and one G400 by now. It's not like it totally breaks down, but it starts to intermittently disconnect (you hear the windows connected-mouse-sound sound) and it tends to be during the most important moments. I mainly played QuakeWorld too, would imagine BW working the mouse even harder. | ||

Best mouse ever I'm only on my second Abyssus now as well - so no idea what the complaint about it breaking quickly is about. this even includes a lot of travelling (I'm born in Germany, but live in the UK - with family and friends still living in Germany). | ||

Ive used big and small mice and while I favor small mice, I loved most of the mice I used. Currently using a G203 from logitech and thinking of buying 10 of them to have spares. last time i felt this storng aobut a mice it was the G3, and I had 4 of them. They are all gone now. | ||

The G403 is a pretty big ergo and it weighs 87.3g to the g203s 85, LOL. There's also just using a fast mousepad and custom mousefeet to reduce wrist strain when using the mouse. I might go back to a hard pad or at least a fast thinnish/firm cloth pad. Funnily, Logitech makes a really good 3mm pretty fast big cloth pad. WIth minor effort, you can get the G900/903 down to 92.6g simply by removing the battery. That's amusing to me because it's chock full of componentry and it has an amazing m1/m2 button system from a technical standpoint. With a little more effort, you can get it to like 90 I think - but then you just have a mouse that's inferior to the DM1 Pro S in every respect except for the buttons. | ||
