So this is completely unavailable on amazon
Have a lot of money on amazon from a gift card. What's a good mouse to get? Doesn't have to be a gaming mouse but it can be.
I just want a mouse that will last a long time and works well. Buttons on the side are fine as long as it looks simple and minimalistic and not like something out of Transformers.

It's nice.

Own one myself, 9/10 besides I personally like a softer click. Had a Steel Series Kinzu before.
>>53791648
Are you talking about the Zowie?
Because I can't get that one. Not on amazon
>>53791551
check superbiiz, got my ec1-a from them with no issues. if you want an ambidextrous mouse, also check out their za series. the za12 is the most similar to the fk iirc
>>53791678
I have like $90 on amazon from a gift card. I'd want to spend that since I have nothing else to spend it on.
>>53791704
ah, gotcha. looks like all the za mice are in stock on amazon.
some other good mice to consider would include the logitech g303/g402/g502, steelseries rival 100/300, roccat kpm, ducky secret, mionix castor/naos optical, probably some others i'm forgetting
lots of solid options for you, pick whatever you think suits your hand most. i love my zowie but i honestly think the "no drivers" thing is more of a lazy copout than a feature. i'd just stay away from razer personally.
Mionix are what Razer used to be in those Diamondback times.
I was interested in the zowie fk1, but seeing the mionix castor and the customization through the drivers for things like liftoff distance makes me interested in that. Does the castor have fine dpi settings or was it just presets?
>>53791929
looks pretty tunable
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Mionix/Castor/4.html
>>53791805
What do you think of the deathadder?
>>53791551
Zowie has been bought by BenQ. Amazon is probably waiting for new stock from BenQ rebrands and is out of stock for Zowie mice.
Just wait a bit.
>>53792267
I saw on an amazon review that it runs at a low sensitivity.
The sensitivity can be adjusted to run how my current mouse runs right? I don't want super low or high sensitivity.
>>53792202
stay away, imo. i decided to give razer a fair shake not too long ago thinking that the deathadder (2013) was their only decent product.
it's a comfortable, lightweight, and precise mouse marred by awful, awful quality control and always-online drivers. i went through three of those cheaply built mice within the span of six months. each had its own build quality quirks and died in different ways.
i'm never ever rough with any of my peripherals, but once deathadder #3's scroll wheel began to crap out on me in the middle of a dota match, i picked it up and slammed it down on my desk decently hard. the mouse didn't work at all after that.
tl;dr: stay away and get a zowie ec1-a instead
>>53792353
In general you have (I believe) four different DPI settings and can even increase the polling rate of the mouse.
All without drivers. Pretty neat.
>>53792353
>>53792421
dpi settings are 400, 800, 1600, and 3200
there's not much point in going past 800 dpi unless you have a 4k monitor or something. keep in mind that it's just a measure of sensitivity, not accuracy as is commonly advertised.
>>53791627
What's a good trackball? I really want to try one.
Not OP, but I have a boatload of Amazon Gift Cards burning a hole in my arse too.
Is it recommended to use a mousepad with a mouse?
my friend just found one in a recycling center
Steelseries is the best gaymen brand desu

>>53792614
definitely. i'd just grab any decently sized cloth mousepad, like the steelseries qck. there's some fancy shit out there like plastic or aluminum but i always come back to cloth.
>>53791551
Thanks for the reminder, just ordered this with a mousepad bundle

I'm looking for a mouse with the shape of the Logitech U96 and with side buttons. I'm using the g400s since 1-2 years but I've never liked the shape to be honest.
>>53792552
Just get a normal logitech one? You don't need some black painted gaming trackball if that's what you think

I would say the razor abyssus for shape, but it doesn't have side buttons. I feel your pain anon.
>>53791551
>Zowie
don't fall for this meme shit
whoever keeps recommending it, fuck off
>>53793501
Seem like an ok mouse. That price and gaymen look though...
>>53793636
I used it for a while. Software is decent, color options are limited (no full RGB), it's nice and light, but the blue LED in the back stopped working after a few months and the scroll wheel sometimes got caught when scrolling up.
>>53793600
zowie mice are the only good mice on the market
>>53793600
It's not a meme, they work well. Have had mine(EC2 eVo) for a couple of years now, the only problem is that the side buttons have become a little unresponsive due to wear. The tracking is still excellent.
Logitech G400s if you can still get them or Mionix Castor.

Which is the most influential gaming mouse of all time?
>>53795056
Click latency
shit scroll wheel
bad coating
shit switches (huano is crap)
I'm after a mouse with a quiet wheel. That's it (aside from forward/backward buttons).
>>53795163
The first three problems have been fixed since early 2015.
The BenQ-branded mice used Omron switches for a while but there was a recall citing reliability issues. They'll probably reintroduce them at some point in the future.
http://zowie.benq.com/news/8/zowie-mice-recall-announcement
>>53795416
What would qualify as quiet?
>>53795597
still a shit mousewheel and coating
Biggest issue for me is that eventhe EC-1 series is too fucking small however.
Mainly the shell that makes the clicks hard too, because it doesent have cut-outs for buttons (muh design)

idk if mine has huano but theyre good ;^)
>>53795679
Well I've currently got a bottom-end mouse (and keyboard. logitech combo) and every increment of the wheel is louder than pressing keyboard keys.
>>53791551
i got this exact mouse and the right click already shitted out and needs cleaning or repair or replace it with a proper switch
>>53795847
>hurr i use a trackball i dont need sensur
>hurr i like shit wheels that randomly scrolls :^)
Yes, i sent 3 back
>original coating is good
you sweat more than a sumo wrestler trying to mountain climb
>shit switches good
Huanos are shit, look up up pajeet
>>53795696
I figured you meant "shit" as in "having legitimate issues" rather than "I don't like the scroll speed" or "the coating feels weird to me". None of the new mice have any of the outstanding issues that some of the older models had with coatings peeling off and mousewheels skipping.
Out of curiosity, what are you using currently? I find it a bit hard to believe that anyone would think the EC1-A is too small. It's roughly the same size as a Deathadder.
>>53795884
only been about 2 months
>>53792800
get prime or risk it for the biscuit on ebay u cheaplord
>>53795866
Well, you won't have that problem if you get a Model M
>>53795895
Im using an IME 3.0
Even with that buggy scroll wheel at least its consistently bad
I dont sweat much, and i dont have dry hands, so the coating is shit tier for me.
>>53795890
i do use a trackball (at ___work___) :/\)
>randomly scrolls
what
>[UNINTELLIGIBLE]
>shit switches are good
i dont gayme so idk ;^)
>>53795778
Maybe time will prove you right, maybe Saitek were just before their time.
But no
>>53795934
If switches dont matter to you at all, i hope you have the cheapest and shittiest membrane keyboard you could find for the lowest amount of money
since you dont gayme, you dont need to click switches, or press them :^)
>>53792512
I have mine cranked up to 3200. feels good

i have a model M and a CM storm with mx greens :-)

>>53795153
Probably this one right here, followed by the Kinzu V1.
>>53795934
if you ever use an interface that uses right and left clock for copy paste you will quickly shoot the designer of a shitty self doubleclicking mouse in the face. funny thing is it happens more with mech switches than the crappy buttons.
too bad the crappy buttons feel like pressing fingers into mud
step the FUCK back

OP here.
So i'm going to be getting the Zowie when it comes back on Amazon. Would it be good for a claw grip?
If not what mouse is recommended for a claw grip?
>>53791627
LOL very good meme 9/10
>>53796367
Looking at getting this considering they are on sale right now.
Is it actually a good mouse? Or is it just expensive because of the colors?
>>53791597
The PBT is tempting
>>53797092
I have a Zowie EC2 eVo and I only claw grip, works great. I guess the current version of that mouse would be EC-A, so that would be my recommendation (unless you're left handed).
>>53798350
It's pretty comfy, if a bit on the heavy side.
>>53797839
Got mine yesterday. Still adjusting to the layout and feel. Seems good so far though.
>>53793381
closest shape is g100s but it doesn't have side buttons
it's pretty cheap
does ducky sell a mouse + keyboard combo?
I'd like to get a shine 5 with greens/clears
and my current g400s doubleclicks sometimes
>>53798669
Don't think so, unfortunately. You'd just have to buy them separately.
I think they do have a mouse+desk-sized mousepad bundle though.
>>53798682
where, on their website? All I can see is a specs page
>>53798723
Just in stores, I think. I'm not entirely sure, but I faintly remember reading about a mouse + pad bundle.
>>53798723
>>53798773

I dislike Razer as much as the next guy, but in terms of hardware, the Deathadder Chroma I got about two to three years ago (when I was younger and stupider) has served me fairly well. The grip is a little awkward because I have piano fingers and long nails, but nothing's broken and the customization options are nice. I wouldn't endorse it, but at the very least I'll keep using it until the hardware goes tits-up.
>>53798801
Thats what I bought, see >>53796372
>>53791563
Second this. I have the mamba which is basically the wireless version of the deathadder, but I pretty much just keep it plugged in. Awesome mouse though, ignore all the autists taking shit cause it's not some obscure hipster mouse no one's ever fucking heard of.
>>53792365
I've had the Razer mamba for about 3 years now and have had no issues

Have to say I'm quite happy with them.

Alright final update lol
>>53795153
I owned one of these, and didn't see the big deal, the side buttons felt flimsy, the rubber siding rubbed-off in a matter of months, and the switches weren't even the good Omron's found in the IMO and WMO
Some anon told me that there were like 3 or 4 different variants floating around near the end of it's lifetime due to the demand for a re-release, and you had to win the model # lottery if you wanted the specific model people jack-off over

As nice as Microsoft mice are when OC'd, we're getting to the point where polling rate mods will eventually be a thing of the past now that motherboards are straight-USB 3.0/3.1, as polling rate mods only work on 2.0, and as of now, either your Microsoft mouse dies a final death, and eBay is nothing but Chinese fakes, or you eventually decide to put your mouse out to pasture for good because it's either that, or a refusal to change your mobo
The future is native polling rate adjustment or bust
