Is the zowie fk still considered one of the best mice to buy? I'm looking to buy a new mouse with high dpi and the only thing I have going is this old infographic from like 2010 or something.
Apparently I have several of these infographics, commencing dump.
I've had this thing for years now and it's flawless. If you can't game with this you're just shit at it.
Last one here.
G400s
don't bother with anything else
>>54548042
>reccommended
wew
What about G502¿?
Which is the most similar to G500¿?
>>54548016
I have the Fk1 and , it works fine , but not much comfortable for me...
>>54548016
>people still think this overpriced garbage is the best thing ever
just why
>>54548016
yes. get the latest revision
>>54548318
silly palm grip boy, you should've bought ZA series
ZA = palm grip aka like g400/s
FK = claw grip like in Microsoft 3.0
>tfw g400 has been discontinued
I've got the wired model, honestly the best mouse I've used to date and that's counting all those Razer and Microsoft mice
>>54548678
so was g400s
>>54548042
>tfw black WMO
feels good man
Isn't the new madcat mouse gud?
It has the swappable sensor.
http://www.pcgamer.com/mad-catz-rat-pro-x-review/
Currently have a CM Storm Spawn, great mouse but it's wearing out, and also I'd like a mouse with more DPI steps (I think 1800 on this mouse is too high, but 800 is too low and there's no inbetween).
I just bought a Mionix Castor, but the shape is surprisingly not as great as I was expecting (it's decent, but a bit long for my grip type).
Just ordered a Corsair M65 Pro, has the best sensor on the market (basically the same as the one in the Logitech mice everyone seem to shill these days), but hopefully a more comfortable shape for my grip type than the Castor.
Either way OP there's a best mouse for many different grip types, unless you're a fingertip user like me then you just have to make compromises. The Zowie FK is still a very good mouse if you like the non-ergonomic shape and have a claw grip.
Cyborg RAT is the best mouse for CS:GO.
Play in 4:3 stretched mode, mouse sensitivity at 4.20, mouse acceleration on, using nothing but the bare surface of your computer desk.
Cheap and it just works.
I can never find my chinese x7 a4tech mouse in these charts
I have noticed no issues other than the cable quality being a bit poor
>>54548571
Uncomfortable too...
Avior 7000 to castor.
>>54548023
You forgot the poor quality cable that breaks after a year
>>54551003
I replaced it with a thick one from my old mx518.
It's perfect now
Coming through with the not-as-good-but-still-great G400 successors.
Good for you if you don't like change, but it doesn't look like Logitech is going to bring them back, so if you don't take care of your precious MX518/G400/G400S and can't find a used one to replace it with, this is your next stop.
They're actually not bad at all. Button placement just takes some getting used to.
Could you all please update your infographics, and tell me how well does the G900 actually perform?
>>54551254
This. Newer infographics please.
>>54551254
Every reviewer says it's the greatest wireless and ambidextrous mouse out there. It's $150 and I don't have a reason to get a new mouse so I can't say much about it myself, I doubt anyone here owns one either. You're really gonna have to go with your gut on this one.
It has the G502 sensor so you can get a general idea off that when it comes to performance.
>>54551319
well, I have bought one (thanks to Linus Tech Tips shill), but then again, i don't know a lot about mice.
I was just looking for a new mice (had MX518, but scroll wheel started being sticky) which had the option of being both wired and wireless (with built-in battery). then i saw that LTT vid, and i didn't even consider another mouse...
tl;dr: i think it's allright
Rate my 8$ g100s
>>54551410
No shoulder buttons is an absolute no. Being able to have those as forward and back buttons alone is worth it.
It's the Zowie Gear EC2-A as good as the reviews say?
>>54551014
>Let's change the cable on my mice because the quality is shit
Great mice man!
>>54551810
The shell is the same as the g400. Later versions fixed the cable.
>being a pussy afraid of some DIY
i have the steelseries rival, pretty good outside of the side rubber wearing off. probably the best mouse i've ever owned
>>54551714
>have those as forward and back buttons
Do you really do that?
>>54548042
>>54548057
>>54548077
>>54548125
why can none of these guides come to a consensus about the mx518 seriously get good
>>54551410
Mine started doubleclicking after a year and a half, so it's a pretty shit-tier mouse.
>>54548090
What is this graph showing, do the mice with negative response rates predict the future?
>>54552171
Same with the sensei. But it's okay I bought an intellimouse today for $0.50
>>54551727
Worth the money
>>54552540
fug i want one

Why is the g100s never mentioned in anything ever?
It's literally a god tier mouse and you can get it for about $10
>>54551410
10/10
>>54552540
Do you like your Sensei? Planning on getting one.
>>54552692
muh forward/backward buttons
looking for something as close to logitech g3 as possible.
- palm grip
- only ambidexterous, side buttons on both sides (i'm using it with left hand)
- not made with shitiest materials possible.
don't need fancy leds. sensor not being the best possible one isn't big issue (as long as it's not worse than g3).
is there anything worth checking out or should i just pray that my 8 years old g3 won't die?
>>54548042
>don't use laser mice for gaming
I really don't think this makes any difference at all unless you're a Starcraft or Quake perfectionist.
i had a couple zowies in 2013,2014, both started double clicking right away
>>54551727
It's Elder God tier
so I don't have to creat a thread just for this:
anyone ever used pic related? logitech m280?
been wanting a wireless mouse, don't want nothing fancy but something decent, functional and that will last.
>>54552717
I have not a single complaint.
>>54548057
>posting the outdated version
>>54554629
>mx master
hey my man, I like your post
>>54556413
Thanks friendo
Any fingertip mice?
Anyone here use normal mice?
>>54551161
These new Logitechs look pretty gay.
should I buy a logitech g502? thanks and god bless
If i can get the Razer deathAdder and the Microsoft explorer 3.0 for the same price, which should i take?
"Best" is very subjective. These Zowie mouse have poor build quality and the buttons and mouse wheel are very wobbly and cheap. Whoever made OP's list was probably a Zowie shill, probably because the company is some crappy 3rd world startup that needed to steal money from kickstarter.
Sensor precision should only matter if you're playing competitive FPS like CS:GO but even then stuff like Freesync and G-Sync 1ms monitors with low input lag will be far more beneficial.
The best list in here is probably:
>>54554629
>>54557173
me
>>54552308
It's using the G300 as a yardstick, so negative = better than the G300.
>>54554629
You can't get ahold of most of these....
LOL
>>54558713
Fucking frogs.
>>54554629
Why is the g400 and the 512 which are the same mouse are two tiers apart?
>>54558713
i don't know french, but i can't complain about g602. is really good mouse.
>>54558713
vous camera est mierde desu senapi
>>54559086
Their not the same.
g400 had angle snapping removed which is preferred.
>>54559042
there is nothing wrong with it.
>>54551161
I've got the g402. It's really good if you have bigger hands.
>>54557475
Seriously, what do i switch to?
>>54559264
>>54559387
clean it up you fat filthy fuck
>>54548121
fucking this
>>54548016
These all have cords
>>54559685
Enjoy your 0.5 kdr.
The G400 was the computer mouse, perfected.
Comfortable shape, excellent number of buttons, perfect sensor and subtle looks that weren't out of place at an office or battlestation.
Why did they stop making it?
>>54554629
wait, are optical mice better?

Either update it so its relevant or don't post it.
>>54557467
yes.
>>54560809
disassemble it and clean it.
it should work
What's the best mouse I can get for $30
So what's the general consensus on the Mionix Castor? I like the look of it, and am thinking of buying it.
>>54548016
all of these need more intellimouse optical. By far the best mouse for <$10
I've had the zowie am, and the zowie fk13.
Perfect mice.
>>54552810
Decent laser mice can be bearable for casual play. Bad laser mice are borderline unusable by anyone used to a perfect sensor. It honestly makes a huge difference for any game that requires quick mouse movements though because you can actually build a proper muscle memory with a perfect sensor.
>bought zowie za
>pretty good, but after reading this thread I think I'd like the fk better
kill me
>>54562044
I use an Avior 8200 after coming from a Logitech G300. It's one of the few decent options for left-handed people if you want a mouse with lots of buttons. I used an MX518 before the G300, and in terms of performance, there's pretty much no difference (that I can notice) between the MX518 and Avior.

>moving your cursor or hand to simply go forwards and backwards

2016 and people still use corded mice..
stop being virgins and just buy a wireless one you autists
>>54562044
I have one.
It's a great mouse but don't get it if your palms sweat a lot because of the grip on the left side. Otherwise GOAT mouse.
pretty much only retards in this thread as usual

>actually buying based on linushill advice
holy shit /g/, what the fuck has happened to you?
>>54562419
I claw grip my mice because my hands are so huge, so that won't be a problem
>>54562339
That's a castor though, not an avior. From what I can tell, the castor has a different surface on the side and has an optical sensor rather than a laser one
>>54559387
clean your fucking mouse you fucking degenerate
>>54562391
And having to charge the battery/replace the battery every hour? Fuck that
>>54562713
That doesn't happen anymore you dummy. Wireless mice batteries tend to last over a year now.
>>54562713
>hour
whens the last time you left mom's basement?
>>54562713
Nigger what? I had a wireless mouse 7 years ago that only needed a single AA replaced every 5-8 months with hours of daily use.
>>54562155
yeah but it's not easy to acquire for all
>>54548023
>G400
>€26
I don't think this has ever been close to true, ever.
Certainly not now where it has been discontinued for fucking ages.
Who Intellimouse here?
>>54550709
ive had one of those for 2 years, 20€ and works flawlessly
>>54559685
Shit connectivity with stutter
>>54563340
Been rocking mine for about 8 years. Started with Wolf ET and broodwar, moved to cod4, been on quake live ever since.
>>54563340
I found one at my workplace in an old dusty box, been using it ever since. The only downside I've found is that it has pretty low DPI compared to other mice I've used
Not using the most powerful controller ever.
>>54559800
Yes. They don't need to use approximation i.e. they are more precise.
>>54548016

How is the g400s compared to the g400?
Or are those the same product?
So the cable on my g400 finally broke. Fixing it was quite easy, but i managed to fuck up the friction tape in the process.
Should I stock up on teflon tape cut for the g400, or is it time to look for a new mouse?
I just want to stop carpal tunnel, trackball?
>>54565245
>muh mouse is broken in an infinitely insignificant way
>is it time to look for a new mouse?
>>54565109
it doesn't matter how it looks, only how it feels
the only flaws are the windows button and that there is no wired variant
the plastic on the thumb rest is hit and miss but not a dealbreaker
>>54562419
Can confirm that the rubber grip on the thumb area gets very slippery with any moisture. But other than that its pretty great.
>>54550957

this guide is a mess, what the fuck

>>54554629
I wish people would got over logitech mice that aren't made anymore and we could just made a new guide that would be valid until 2020
>>54559387
Made me gag you disgusting slob.
is wireless finally a viable option in the year 2016?

>looking to buy a new mouse with high dpi
Why? I have the Zowie FK1 and use 800dpi for browsing, and 400dpi for FPS gaming
