fingerclaw 2. What's your sensitivity? 800-1200 dpi with windows slider 6/10 3. What's your maximum budget? 50 dollars 4. Do you want additional buttons? no, just 2+middle mouse button 5. What games do you play? starcraft 2, age of empires 2 6. Do you mind angle snapping? yes, its terrible 7. Other relevant information: I have been using a razer abyssus for 1 year and want a mouse similar to it but with lower dpi options. I'm aware that I can use drivers to adjust the dpi but the razer drivers cause a lot of problems on my pc so I've been running driverless since I bought the mouse. The 450 dpi option on the abyssus is too low and the 1800 dpi option is too high for me. | ||

Costs around $30-40 USD and looks like a regular mouse. It is kind of small though. | ||

Last time I used Razer drivers on my Deathadder 3.5G, the mouse cursor looked like it had Parkinson's while motionless no matter what sensitivity I set it to... I think there's little reason to move past the regular drivers on the 3.5g unless you specifically want some feature/s on the synapse ones. Dunno if they work very well yet, maybe | ||

my mouse is broken. The left click does not work properly anymore. It is a copperhead which I bought 5 or 6 years ago. I was really happy with it and became used to its buttons on the left for my thumb. + Show Spoiler + ![]() So I am looking for a mouse similar to this one. I thought of buying a Razer Deathadder, this one also has the two buttons on the left. Any opinion? ![]() | ||

Yeah I was gonna say that they make a left-handed Deathadder too. I used to Copperhead too but the sensor started flipping out for some reason and it didn't matter what type of surface I used. I switched to a Zowie MiCO which is a fairly expensive mouse for something that doesn't have any extra buttons or features but it's been good to me and pretty solidly built. If you like the copperhead, you could try Razer's Taipan which is pretty similar in design and has those buttons on the side like you were talking about. It is pretty expensive though. Or there's the Razer Tron mouse. | ||

There a tons of ppl with smaller hands who have to use that enourmous razer mice, most of them don't even realize they r limiting their precision so much. I just don't get it. Maybe take a look at Zowie Mico or Roccat Pyra. Those are about the smallest gaming mice that you can find at 9,8*5,8 cm . Steelseries Kinzu is longer but even more narrow. Razer Abyssus and Logitech g100s are a tad bigger, but still considered small mice. | ||

Mico, G100, Kana V2, Kone pure optical, Zowie FK, Razer abysus All very small mice @ above poster with copperhead, look into g100, very similar. | ||

I think the best advice I can give someone shopping for a new mouse is this: identify what your grip type is, and buy a mouse designed for that grip. I was previously using a Steelseries Sensei RAW, and while it is still a pretty good mouse, trying to uses a fingertip grip with it never quite felt right. | ||

palm 2. What's your sensitivity? 1600 dpi 3. What's your maximum budget? 50 dollars 4. Do you want additional buttons? 2 additional ones on the right would be preferred 5. What games do you play? dota 2, fps 6. Do you mind angle snapping? yes 7. Other relevant information: I'm using a Sensei Raw atm, but need one for my laptop (doesn't register the sensei raw engine so not programmable). So I'm looking for a mouse that can be sturdy for extensive travel, works with windows 8.1 (sucks i know), and is decently priced). I ended up getting a g400s. Should that hold up to extensive travel and use for 1-2 years or should I consider getting another mouse? | ||

I use i guess finger grip, i have a steelseries sensei, but it feels to long and i cant seem to place my ring finger properly. Im rather low at around 1400 dpi and i would prefer a mouse that can track properly on a cloth pad, i like them more. I dont need any buttons, in fact, i hate the sensei side buttons, they are in the way. its not like the sensei is bad, but i feel like i can do better with another mouse. MY city doesnt have any store that lets me try mice out -.- The storm spawn looks good, too bad amazon de or co.uk doesnt seem to have it. | ||
