Nokra Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I have an old Razer DeathAdder 3.5G which has been having a random double-click problem for a few months and it's slowly driving me crazy, so I'm thinking I'll replace it sooner rather than later, if I can't fix it after opening it up. What mouse, gaming or otherwise, do you all use? I haven't done a ton of PC gaming lately, nor am I all that likely to do so in the near future (wrapping up school) but I do plan on getting back into PC gaming eventually, so I'm not opposed to a fancier programmable gaming mouse, if it's worth it. Thanks very much for any suggestions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dualhunter Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I have the Logitech G502, the non-RGB one since it was cheaper and I just wanted blue anyway. I haven't tried it so I don't know if it's any good for gaming but Logitech has a new vertical mouse. You're less likely to have wrist issues with it than with a normal mouse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great mouse. https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Spectrum-Shifting-Personalized-Programmable/dp/B019OB663A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was really curious about one of those ergonomic mice, because as a CS person I do spend a lot of time on the computer. I may have to check that out, thanks. As far as gaming mice go, is there much worry these days about delay when using a wireless mouse, or have they pretty much eliminated the problems? I'm obviously not a competitive gamer so slight delays would be fine, but if it's all that noticeable, it might slowly drive me crazy, like this double-click issue.

dualhunter Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 While I haven't used a vertical mouse, I find the different wrist position when holding a Wacom stylus very helpful so I am intrigued by vertical mice. I recently saw something about a new Logitech wireless gaming mouse that is low lag, I think this is it: https://news.logitech.com/press-release/gaming/new-logitech-g-pro-wireless-gaming-mouse-proven-winner Also, trying to play Starcraft with the double click on my old G500 is why I got the G502. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokt Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I've been using a Razer Naga since my days when I first started getting heavily into wow. I've tried switching to a few different mice, but I always come back to the Naga. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cusideabelincoln Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Logitech G400 (aka G400s). First one I bought developed the infamous cable short within 6 months. Logitech gave me a new one free of charge which lasted up until a few weeks ago. It, too, also developed a short in the cable and was causing my system to lock up and randomly crash. I decided to not even bother with customer service and ordered a replacement cable and so far it's working like a dream. On the plus side the replacement cable is much thicker and sturdier, so I'm hopeful it'll last a lifetime now. I also like the Logitech Gaming software. You can re-program any button, so in games that have a lot of binds I like the option to use the DPI up/down buttons as bindable keys, giving me up to 8 usable buttons on the mouse alone. However I have thought about going with a Razer Deathadder type mouse just to see how I perform with the claw grip as opposed to the palm grip I'm currently using. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nokra Posted September 27, 2018 Author Share Posted September 27, 2018 Thanks all, I appreciate all of your suggestions! I ended up deciding to give a vertical mouse a shot, since as a CS person I spend a lot of time on the computer, and I figured that anything I can do to reduce wear and tear on my wrists is a good idea. I got the Logitech MX Vertical, and so far I'm happy with it. It's a bit of an adjustment at first but overall it has been a fairly smooth transition. It seems like most of the mice you all suggested were gaming mice, and since I do plan on building a new gaming rig in the next year or so I very much appreciate your input. I'm sure I'll pick up one of those mice in the not-too-distant future. So thank you again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 So what you're saying is you already had a mouse in mind and wasted all of our time? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
