Mouse died
Need a replacement for pic related
I'm not twelve so I need a good mouse not a gamer mouse
>>319893760
>I'm not twelve
Sounds like something a twelve year old would say..
bump
my mouse is garbo
To be specific my G400 is doing just fine, it's a normie with a shitty gamer mouse who has to replace theirs
logitech put the G400 out of production and I can only see them pumping out gamer mice now
what gives?
My G400 "died" a year ago; cable was fucked and kept disconnecting.
I found a fix though, which involved taking it apart and shoving the cable further inside. A year later it is yet to disconnect.
Consider checking >>/g/ for a mouse thread.
g303 works great, feels good for a finger grip
buy a used one. that's what i did.
or somebody recommend me a mouse that's equal or better than a G400. does such a thing even exist?
/v/ - Mice
>>319893760
>mfw I literally have the exact same mouse as you and it's dying at the moment
It just disconnects sometimes right and you have to pull it out and plug it back in? I only bought my g400 in 2013 I thought it would last longer than this.
Though I am worried maybe it's my motherboard because when it disconnects steam shit itself which makes me think my hard drive with steam installed it also disconnecting for a split second.
if mx518 wasnt discontinued id say just get a new mx518
Logitech MX Master

>Wireless
The fuck is wrong with you?
>>319894631
Mine is from Jan 2013 and still doing fine. There's some variance I suppose. Had an MX518 that started acting up which worked fine after opening and cleaning it up. Maybe try that? Careful though.
>>319894539
seems like the best option, though with residue buildup it's kind of gross
>>319893760
G402 or G502
>>319894119
G400 was a gaming mouse though.
>>319894738
MX518 was my old one but it's gotten kind of gross. Still works though. Keeping it as my personal backup.
/g/502 is great
>>319894119
G400s replaced it. Works fine enough so far for me since I bought it a year ago.
If you want a non rice-looking gaming mouse try the FK1. Only thing I don't see that I want is on the fly DPI adjustment.

>>319895097
You misunderstand me. "Gamer" mice.
>>319894876
New anon, but the mouse wire gets all tangled all the time and it's just a bigger pain if it falls off the desk.
I don't see a bigger benefit to wired mice to make it worth it, but maybe I just bought shitty mice. Oh well
here u go ~f~a~m~
Nothing better than the G502, if it's gonna make your gf make fun of you or whatever that's your problem

Went from op mouse to g400s to this mouse and it is the best mouse I've ever used. like zowie there are no drivers to install but the ergonomics are so much better.
How did it die OP? You can replace the cable, the part's widely available
G400 represent. If it died on me I'd just buy another used one, or maybe a g5/g9/g400s
>>319895380
Wireless mouses require batteries or recharging, can have latency issues, normally have low quality sensors, angle snapping and acceleration. Because they require batteries, changeable or inbuilt tend to be heavier, and if the battery dies and you have no batteries on you, you go without a mouse. Either that, or you have to charge it, and it defeats the purpose of being wireless. Wireless anything that you have to depend on is just not a good idea.
If you don't need anything special, Windows Intellimouses are really good for their price. They have great sensors and just werk.
>>319896181
Shit, meant Microsoft Intellimouses*.
rival and deathadder. great sensors and ergonomics with minimal gaymur faggotry.
>>319896332
>deathadder
GTFO
>>319893760
g700.
The main reason why mouses die is the cable that connects to the mouse. G700 is based on the mx518 and has a detachable cable (which is also reinforced) Which means that in the worst case scenario you'll just have to change the cable or play with the battery.
I've been using it pretty much all day everyday since 2011 and it's working perfectly fine.
If you liked it just get a G400s.
>>319896386
it has a great sensor and ergonomics for people with regular hands. i cant vouch for build quality for obvious reasons, but mine feels solid and hasn't broken or had any problems in the two years ive had it.

>>319894190
Seriously? This fixes it? Thanks, I'm going to do that to mine.
I like the Mionix Avior 7000, OP. I got it for $30 from MassDrop.
>>319894119
You realise the "G" stands for gaming, right?
I own a g400.
>>319897302
bought this one and returned it immediately
>>319893760
>>319897564
I just want to take the track ball out of that bad boy and clean it.
>>319897470
>Avior 7000
Good choice. Naos 7000 is worth a recommendation too.
You want to buy a new mouse? Here's the ones to choose between:
Razer - has been shit since ca 2006 right after they released the copperhead, starting with retarded firmware adding 12ms delay before mouse sending registered clicks to PC and then overpriced keyboards that didn't feature anti ghosting. Their current products include a "revived" diamondback that doesn't even have the same dimensions as the original one with the iconic rubber strip (great for gripping) removed and the chroma keyboard with razers own designed (shitty OEM ones made by kalih, a cheap chinese knockoff) mechanical switches.
Logitech - currently has an exclusivity contract on the best mouse sensors on the consumer market, however mouse designers tried to make "unique" mouse that'd stand out in the market resulting in horrible abortions well known for looking more like UFOs than mice. Any semblence of ergonomy was thrown out of the window with it as well. I'm talking especially about the G302/303 models here. Also known to aggravate certain types of CTS/RSI, a certain progamers has gotten rekt by it as their contract won't allow them to use other mice during play.
Zowie - run by some greedy chinks going by the "selling less for more" philosophy. Sells simple mice for overly high prices now that they've established brand name like the others. Still uses stiff huano switches and refuses to do any adjustment to mouse shell dimensions despite repeated complaints from customers.
>>319894119
just get a G400s.
>>319895512
is there some reason all zowie mice are expensive? I get the impression they are the same shit as razer just not as obnoxious looking.
honestly I wish someone would make one of those crazy MMO mice with an actually half decent sensor in it. The gorillion buttons are actually useful as hell for a lot of games, but the sensors and build quality of MMO mice are universally shit.
Just bought the G502
Pretty aight
>>319893760
I've been using the steelseries kinzu v3 for csgo. very simple design and fits great with my small hand. also doesnt look like its a transformer
>>319898532
>small hand
HAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA FUCKING MANLET HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>319898624
>>319898758
It's ok, bro, your teeny tiny hands make your boyfriend's dick look bigger.

Steelseries -
Steelseries -
>The SteelSeries Rival was built with hardware level skipping which is preferred by some of the top gamers in the world. Although mouse skipping has been coined as a villain in some gaming circles, it is slowly but surely becoming a valued feature for certain top gamers whom can utilize its benefits to the fullest. The major gripe with mouse skipping is inconsistency. This inconsistency is due to software-based skipping tools such as Windows mouse skipper which is built for basic tasks such as web browsing, not precision gaming.
Mad Catz RAT - Their latest entries failed basic things like not fucking up the mouse sensor placement. How hard is it to understand the concept of that any rotational movements will fuck up without proper sensor placement?
QPAD - Their flagship mouse, the DX-20 features a PMW3320 sensor and costs $70. Its like spray painting something gold and expecting people to pay for its worth in actual gold.
Thermaltake - They haven't managed to make a single fucking decent product when it comes to gaming mice.
Roccat - Another PMW3320 product selling for $70. But these guys have been known for overpricing their things since years ago.
Mionix - This is actually my favored brand, as I don't have any negative shit to say about them. Good luck getting them outside of Europe however.
>>319898936
Fuck off, faggot.
>>319893760
g400s is basically this but better
>>319899007
>>319894190
I took the better, thicker cable out of my old mx518 and put it in my g400, works fine.
>>319899123
Looks ugly though.
>>319899428
So does your mum but she still picked up your dad.
>>319899632
Good one
>>319899632
I know you said you don't want a gaymer mouse, but this thing is actually very useful for certain reasons:
-it has a third mouse button, which I usually set to wheel click so I can open and close tabs easier
-the 12 buttons are actually pretty easy to reach with your thumb once you get used to the layout
-each of these 12 buttons can actually be bound to multiple keystrokes, like ctrl-c, ctrl-v, etc. This can potentially make someone's life a lot easier if they use a program with lots of keystrokes available, like autocad or photoshop.
-you can also make multiple profiles, so that you can hop back and forth between them depending on what you're doing.

Hey, let your bosses at logitech know they make pretty cool stuff
>>319900110
yeah i'll get right on that bud, sorry for trying to make an actually helpful suggestion
>>319900365
Because linking directly to a purchase site isnt shilling at all
>>319900110
Yo, realtalk, if Logitech has people shilling their stuff here i don't think I'd mind because at least they make quality stuff.
>>319900365
Don't let him nettle you, that is a really good suggestion, thank you.
>>319894119
My G400 is fine as well.
Even if I played osu with it during more than a year.
What a great mouse.
>>319900552
Thats why I said they make really cool stuff. I've been using logitech devices for 15 years, but shilling is shilling
>>319900542
>hurr durr you potentially made someone's life a bit easier by just linking the product to the most common marketplace on the internet in a thread literally asking for suggestions on a new mouse, you must be a shill!
>>319900552
glad you think so, it's pretty nifty once you adjust to its ergonomics, pretty comfy too
>>319901059
Yeah but you're being a retard for no reason.
>>319901060
U rite now ;)
>Bought G500 because I needed a new mouse and it was on /g/'s "God Tier mice category
>Breaks after 6 months

Never again.
Does anyone own of these?They look god awful

>>319893760
I am using g402 for a year, feels pretty nice. A few stupid extra buttons, but they are not really an issue.
>>319901350
>G500
something similar like that happened to me, but I got a replacement and never ended up using it much after i received it
i got a g602 while it was on sale for like 30 bucks and the mouse wheel button would only register if i hit it really hard at some point
they sent me a new one without asking any questions, so i just use my g600 now and leave the 602 in my drawer. i leave it there in case i ever need a wireless for a weird situation since i'm afraid it will break again, logitech doesnt have the best quality control like most companies nowadays.
>>319901479
>>319901059
>shilling is shilling
True, but I'd rather make a deal with Bobby Kotick than Andrew Wilson if you catch my drift.
>>319901520
It was a very nice feeling mouse because of my huge hands, good weight too.
Great mouse, right up until it stopped working.
MOUSTER RACE COMING THROUGH
>>319901708
How bad has it gotten that we can unironically use Bobby Kotick as a positive example
>>319901850
Hey, man, at least Bobby likes games, fuckin' Andy don't care for anything but money. And say what you will about Activision-Blizzard but their games are solid. How many EA games can you say that about?
razer deathadder
and if anyone goes "lol gamer shit" they have no idea what they're fucking talking about
deathadder has been top tier for like 8 years now
>>319896813
Oh hey, I have the same mouse. Shit is great
Mionix Castor is probably the most subtle gaming mouse out there. Its a mouse you can bring to work without feeling ashamed.
Its light weight, has the best sensor on the market, a built in memory that stores the configs you put in from the program (color options, dpi, etc. If you want you can turn off the lighting alltogether). The shape of the mouse feels great too.
Pair it up with a Steelseries Mass mousepad and you're good to go.
>>319895512
Zowie FK1. Love this mouse.
It's also no longer in the ugly yellow shown here, but instead has a more appealing white logo and white mouse wheel. Looks more like a mouse than a gaming toy now. Great mouse overall.
>>319893760
G100s. Low click delay that you get with all Logitech "g" mice, pretty much the lightest mouse you can get if you remove the weight, and a great shape.
>>319893760
>I'm not 12
ya you're 11
Just got this for £27.
Pretty good.
>>319894440
seconded, had mine for 4 months and its great so far. Only complaint is that the mouse wheel is too far back
>my G400 died
>can't for the life of me find a decent replacement that isn't a glowy batmobile
It's been months and I'm still using a shitty advent laptop mouse because every option is just shit.
>>319893760
this is mine, works great, dependable as fuck.
Possible Pros:
>Button placement, side buttons won't get in the way
>Feels great, good weight to it despite its small size
>Scroll wheel is really quiet, near silent
>For its price, it's not a cheap piece of shit
>I got it for $13 on ebay
Possible Cons:
>LED light is always one, and is kind of bright in pitch black (medium bright, too much for me)
>Side 'rubber' grip feels great, but in the middle it starts to CHIP off, not PEEL. Weird shit.
>You will probably never need the side buttons, but I think you can map them
>No DPI indicator, just a toggle button for 3 settings (you can tell what setting it's on by feeling it out but still)
>It's not a palm grip, so if you have big hands you're fucked (I love this size of mouse personally and hate palm grip like the op pic.)
Overall I love it to death and think it's the best mouse for the price by far. I have had a shitload of cheap ones and mid-tier $50+ ones fuck up on me, and this one is the most satisfying by far.
>>319897302
tfw my 2013 edition works perfectly fine after 2 years of constant use. say what you want about razer but deathadder is the best fucking product they ever made
>>319893760
Then /g/ would be more helpful in your choice.
>>319908058
this man speaks truth
I bought this one awhile ago still works and it was 15 dollars.

>>319908820
I was looking for a wireless mouse since I already have a shitload of cables around my comp but I might get this if it is worth it.
>>319909187
It comes with a Velcro wrap. Might help with the mouse's wire management.
>>319907832
>LED light
>Light Emitting Diode Light
You don't say?
>>319906165
I have both the G502, and the Zowie FK1. I really wish the G502 weighed less, but overall a great mouse that has the best tracking of any mouse available.
>>319893760
>had a g400 that lasted me 8 years of constant assfaggots and cs
>my friend dies in lol using my pc while on heroin
>slams his finger down on the mouse really hard over and over

At least i found a good deal on the g400s for $40.
