I've tried pretty much every gaming mouse under 200 dollars. If you really care, just go to your local Fry's or whatever electronic store with a good return policy and buy/return mice until you find your favorite. | ||

G5 and the first generation of laser mice (at least, newer ones have problems but not that severe (never ones have some accel problems but don't skip)) are actually pretty bad, they skip out at fast movements (fast movements not being that fast at all actually). More prevailent at fps games but way superior in that regard no contest as the 1.1 doesn't actually skip until much later (it has negative accel but that is tolerable most of the time unlike skipping which obviously is never). It's also a smaller shape, ?! imo a quality especially in rts games since one mostly uses ones fingers for navigating. http://esreality.hexus.net/?a=longpost&id=1265679&page=21 If you wan't something "solid" the wmo, ie1.1/3.0 and mx 300/500/510/518 are good bets, solid workhorses as one might say. In the end the brand doesn't matter if the mouse performs with precision (you don't need 2k dpi, you probably don't even need 200) doesn't skip, has consistent movement (at least up to a certain point you don't reach). The G5 may well do this since you hardly make it skip playing rts but if you ever move towards fps I hope you use high sens. Just get something with a good shape and a non crap sensor. | ||

One more thing to note. I hate the fact that the light on the abyssus stays on at all times(even when the computer is shut down) I wish i could go in there and just break it. | ||

Just go with whatever is most comfortable for you to use I'd say, since the most important 2 buttons are left and right click anyways, any possible keybinds aside. I use the same mouse and agree with this assessment, large, heavier mouse with high dpi, very accurate. | ||

not only is it one of the most comfortable mice to hold in your hand, but i can fling it like a lord and there hasn't been any skipping issues or weird responses yet. still gonna wait and see if it behaves the same way after a month or two though. | ||

In RTS games high sensitivity is very popular and I believe this is where a good laser mouse is very useful. I have personally switched from low sens intellimouse 3.0 to high sens steelseries xai and I really love it. But if I switched back to a FPS, I would switch to low sens with my intellimouse 3.0. I hope this helps. | ||
