    Re: Gaming mouse

    I am currently using the Logitech G9. And wow I have to say this is the greatest mouse created(so far). You can add weight to it if you dont like how much it weighs. Also can change the LED colors. And even change the skin on it! I love the mosue I have used the G7, G5, and this is the greatest of them all!

    Razor Copperhead, I play with it at max res and I barely have to move my hand at all to totally spin around for a quick shot.  I totally love it.

    well for one it looks 10x cooler having your 3 key where your F key should be.  Plus it's pretty funny watching people go to type on your computer, then turning and going "umm how the hell am i supposed to use this?".

    I have an "old" mx-518 that I am satisfied with.  I'm not too big into FPS though.

    Re: Gaming mouse

    I use a Razer Diamondback. I have used mice with resolutions of 1000 1600 1800 2000 2400 and 4000 dpi for gaming and to be honest i have found that the 1600 and 1800 dpi mice work best for me. Some of the best players in the world use lower dpi mice. It's all about preference try a cheaper one and if you like it stick with it and if you don't like it get a more expensive one then. it will suck to buy a 100 dollar mouse and hate it.
