DJ aka GDR DJ Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 $10 is not much for a good gamer mouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darketch Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Tell us a little more about what ur looking for....do u want the highest DPI for ur budget or at u looking for speed/response, programmability, precision? I took a quick look and it appears that if "gaming" is in the title, it bumps the price up, so tell us specifically what ur looking for. I played with a standard dell mouse for years and a could of years ago got a Razr mamba. Don't recall any big difference besides my ego.

TulsaGeoff Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) Probably not since it's technically illegal to sell RS accounts >.< Illegal or against the software company's terms of service? I really like g500's. For that price range, this Rosewill mouse may be one of your only prospects: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?SID=10OTHq8PEeGPe0btKdxlyg10f8fd&AID=10440897&PID=1225267&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-cables-_-na-_-na&Item=N82E16826193058 Edited June 5, 2012 by TulsaGeoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckun Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Illegal or against the software company's terms of service? The latter.. Which is legally binding the second you set up an account and tick 'i agree to these terms' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TulsaGeoff Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I'd go for a g400 if you can afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clan Friend SunLight Posted June 6, 2012 Clan Friend Share Posted June 6, 2012 Before buying another cheap one, maybe test your own a bit, some time ago I had posted a little mousetest software I had written, since then I have made a 2.0 version, it's portable and no installation is required (see attachment, it's just a small executable) TestMouse.zip I tested 2 mice: - logitech g5 old model (Years ago it costed me an arm and a leg, and I already replaced my mouse feet 2 times) - microsoft optical mouse 200 (the one I use with a laptop, I think it's about 10$ worth, probably the replacement mouse feet I bought for the g5 costed me about the same amount ) here are the results: G5 on glass: [/img] - 500 hertz, I can set up to 1000, but as you can see from the uneven space between the horizontal lines, it's not really a stable 2millisec per sample. Moving it with a circular motion there are some little spikes, not really perfect... (I don't know if there are mice who get a perfect curve, though) G5 Malfunction speed: [/img] - Moving it reeeeally fast I managed to reach malfunction speed, as you can see from the values going crazy/negative in the picture above. I roughly calculated the speed, 201500 pixels / second at 2000 dpi are 100 inches/sec, or 2.5 meters/second. I never reach this speed when I play so who cares Microsoft Optical 200 on a cheap (actually free ) plastic mouse pad: [/img] as you can see it's around 125Hz, but far from being stable. The curve is not that bad if compared to g5, though. I was able to reach malfunction speed with this one too: [/img] but I had probably a harder time reaching it, due to the small size of the mouse pad (or because g5 sux for lowsensers) Last, I tried g5 at 125 hertz, it's more stable than the other one, and the curve is smoother as well, I don't know if it's due to the different pad pic of G5 at 125Hz: [/img] Anyway, for a mouse that had (back then) a price 10 times higher than the other, it's not 10 times better, not even remotely. Which is normal, because you pay only for a small amount of extra performance. The only good thing is the fact that it has more buttons, and better stock mouse feet (but I had replaced them, because they wear out with time). So, if you are satisfied with your mouse sensor (no accelerations, high malfunction speed, etc.) and mouse buttons already, don't buy a second cheap one thinking that it will be like the difference between night and day, just because it's a 'gaming' mouse. Maybe put some teflon tape/feet, or get a better mouse pad to get less friction, if that is your problem. I'd be curious to see a screenshot of your mouse movement with that tool I attached.
