| LubeNLuv Senior Member 1854 Posts 3/06 | I highly recommend it. Both the G5 and the one listed above have a little button on top that lets you switch the DPI "on the fly" in any game. It's great for when you are playing a game and need twitch reflexes for combat mode, but then want less precision for things like surfing the textures looking for clues. Even better if you like to play Sniper roles in a FPS. If you are using a spray-and-pray gun, you stay at a higher DPI and can run and gun with precision. Then you switch to scope or sniper mode, flip the DPI way down and the scope won't be all over the place. Simply awesome...best mouse I've ever owned. Edited by - lubenluv on 9/5/2007 2:48:39 PM |
| Bob All-Star Member 5516 Posts 3/03 | I recently bought the Logitech MX400, which is a "non-gaming" laser mouse, but the tracking precision is just amazing. |
| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | Given the rate which I wear through them at I have been using cheapo mice for everything. I am getting tired of that. The idea of switching DPI on the fly is hugely cool as far as I'm concerned. Laser is a must. I have given up on ball mice and I'm not going back. I think right now I am sold on the G5. I just have to find a shop that stocks them. |

| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | The buttons don't have enough "spring" and I end up pushing the ones on the sides when I am just resting my hand. A few weeks ago the Logitech one I was using mysteriously stopped working. I think I did something to short out the cord like resting a monitor on it accidentally. The only positive thing about the microsoft mouse is that it is very light weight. |

| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | Also I don't have any credit cards (and no debt either) so doing stuff online involving money doesn't happen for me. It's probably weird but I am the only one I know with no cell phone or credit cards and I am going to keep it that way till I am forced to change. Many have pointed out the possible advantages of credit cards to me but unless cash stops being accepted that is how I will be paying. EDIT: I didn't mean to sound so grumpy, Bob. And I do appreciate your advice. Edited by - conquistador on 9/5/2007 6:49:24 PM |

| LubeNLuv Senior Member 1854 Posts 3/06 | Both are good mice, but I highly prefer the G5 series myself. But then I also have a [ invalid url ] and with so many macro buttons on that thing, I'm not sure I would even notice more buttons on my mouse. Edited by - lubenluv on 9/6/2007 10:38:38 AM |

| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | It's just that anything that isn't firmly tethered to my desk is likely to get knocked on the floor and damaged. Don't get me wrong, it sounds like a great mouse but I don't mess with wireless. This extends into other areas of my life, I have never had a cordless phone or a cellular. I don't know where any of my VCR remotes are....you probably get the picture. |
