First!! Why not add recommendation depends on mouse size, sensor, n pricing

very nice.
i think first thread should change abit, like ntw said, put some comparisons in terms of mouse size, sensor and current pricing. like that its easier for people to refer.

It is very hard to find and compare each and every mice out there, despite the hard work over time, there will be countless new mice every few months, time taken to research those mice is not easy.

Anyway, I did suggest to put up this link on last thread, a very good guide, for hardcore that searching for accuracy mice.

Very good read up!!

Can anyone do such research based on that link? If they do, well, I think that will benefit this thread, but I don't think I can.

Congrats on v7! There are so many mice out there that even just compiling a price list together will be a headache
anyhow, the G502 DPI seems like overkill to me... unless you use 9 monitors that is...

This post has been edited by kenysl: Apr 10 2014, 02:23 PM

maybe someone can pm more details regarding the claw-grip vs palm-grip and other know-hows about mouse. then i'll spend some time to compile it and edit my first post

That mice seems interesting. The sensor.

I've added the link wildwestgoh provided and 2 more regarding grip styles. Please do PM if you want me add more links and details to the first post

I wanna get a replacement for my Kone[+], any idea guys? I want a similar button layout and functionality if possible. I've considered Corsair M95 and M65 but the M65 my friends keep say doesn't look good while M95 doesn't look good to me because its too fat though I think I will appreciate it having more thumb buttons.

first page. ouroboros user here!

The first question to ask yourself is, can you live without EasyShift+?
anyway, looks are subjective, if you think it looks good then it is enough

Well, most of the mouse recommended are optical and based on avago 3090 sensor. Currently I'm using G400s (avago 3095, logitech version of 3090) and Kana v1 (pixart 3305, which got many complain, but updated with latest firmware to fix jitter problem) side by side, with 400 cpi, I dont feel any different at all. I guess some people are just way to darn ocd'ed.

If you can live without easyshift, maybe g500s? Seems to be similar on shape

i concur with this suggestion, the G500s seems like a good replace for u Silverfire, it also has quite a number of side buttons, up to 10 cuztomizable buttons iinm

I'm looking for a gaming mouse for less than RM150. Needs to have 2 thumb buttons. DPI can be about 2500-3000 i don't mind. Any suggestions?

G400s got all ur needs..

I come across one cheap mouse with high end features. 6400DPI, weight adjustment, PixArt 3305 sensor. If i recall correctly i think Armageddon Alien GX9 something. Anyone try that before?

http://www.tech-critter.com/2013/10/first-...n-alien-iv.html
according to this review, should be not bad I guess.

hi, i'm just a newbie here.. for me m95 is better for mmo right handed gamers, easy programming the key.. while m65 is for shooting or fps gaming, come with weight adjustable.. look good doest mean lack in performance..

anyone is currently using the steelseries rival mouse? i am a deathadder user and would like to know how does this mouse compared to deathadder..

what model is your DA...torn between the DA or rival

looking a mousepad for my razer mamba...what is the best combo for it ?

Is the quality good and is it too big cause I have small hands

my model is before this 2013 model i guess..2nd gen..to tell u the truth, razer quality is getting shitty now, well at least for my current DA. my 1st gen DA lasted me for 4 years and this 2nd gen DA lasted me like 1 year plus. Dont really wanna get the 2013 version and wanted to try the rival for sake of change. Still pending some review for any existing rival user if possible that owns a DA before

G400s still consider ok for small hands..
what mouse are you using right now? Easier to identify how big is too big for you

so i emailed Microsoft regarding the authenticity of the Microsoft Intellimouse in Garage Sale and also a few found in Taobao

Thanks for all the feedback. I guess for now I will wait for my Kone[+] to die on me before changing one. Seems excessive

oh well, we all knew what the outcome would be...
Did you buy one to test drive?

sadly my r.a.t 9 started to having problem,

sometimes left click sometimes register as double click : (
anyone know where is saitek/madcatz service center in Malaysia?

kick haven't come to try it out... cm storm inferno still going strong Xp

Check out the new logitech g502. Pretty interesting stuff eh.
I heard good things on rival but I think rival gets dirtier than DA13 easier. Still it's a good mice I guess. One more thing I heard, buggy drivers? Go ask at SS thread.

Currently using Logitech G100S. Fits me nicely. And i was looking at a Armaggeddon Mikoyan Foxbat is that mouse good also?

The G400s (left) is slightly bigger than the G100s (right).

I have no experience with the Mikoyan Foxbat so I cannot weigh in on that

G400s is quite big, but due to the design, will fit small hand nicely, though you might have problem reaching forward side button with small hand, like myself. Coming from G100s and Kana, I find that Kana is the best fit for me, though after prolong usage of G400s, I starting to like G400s shape.

You can actually go to any shop, open the G400s front cover (just the front flip cover, not the box, I wont be responsible for anything bad happen ) and test the shape.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Im thinking of ordering mouse feet from Takasta (some famous dude on overclock.net and youtube, gaming mouse breeder) on ebay due to Kana v2 damn high LOD.
Price for 1 pack (2 set) is around RM15-20. Though could get cheaper with bulk purchase, not sure on the bulk price yet. Anyone interested?

Model that they offer:
Steelseries: Kinzu / Kana / v2 / Xai / Sensei / Raw
Zowie: EC1 / EC2 / AM / AM-GS
Logitech: MX518 (NEW) Black-White / G400 / G5 / G7 / G9 / G9x
Microsoft: IE3 / IO1.1 / WMO
Razer: Deathadder / Mamba / Lachesis / Imperator / Orochi / Abyssus / Naga Epic / Hex / 2013 / Naga (Original)

As for the thickness, video and more info, refer to link below

wow g502 design a similar my rat 9. it seems no more free scroll wheel & redesigned weight system.
just bought a g500 instead of g500s because prefer g500 design.

switching from rat 9 to g500... g500 feels so light even after adding all weight cartridges >_<

Hyper-fast scroll wheel still there in G502. It's a whole piece of metal this time.
I thought G500 EOL already..

maybe u can try here>> https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...813&hl=mad+catz

I see... yea somehow I managed to find new G500 : )
since you mentioned that the G502 comes with the hyper scroll, it makes me wanna get it, should have visited this thread more often...

I have use G500 for nearly 2 years, pretty ok mice except that my second G500 spoil faster. RMA it and got the G500s and sell it ASAP.
Drop you a link for G502 review on OCN.
http://www.overclock.net/t/1481639/logitec...e-review-by-ino

thanks for the link!

hmm... 2 years then 2 x g500 giving problem? what's the problem btw? I was hoping at least able to last 3 years...

You are welcome.
First mice sensor inaccuracy in tf2 and left button double clicks. Second mice pretty much the same but the quality of it much worse than previous mice and its new and sealed returned RMA.

Thanks for the reply. Easier for me to chose now

Guys, im planning to get the Logitech G700s wireless gaming mouse.. is it good? or is the wired version better? Any other better wireless gaming moues?

hmm... what mouse are you using currently? hope my g500 quality is not as bad as yours >_<

it's a good mouse, the only complaint I heard from ppl is that the charging cable is too rigid

if you don't need so many buttons the G602 may be a better mouse, else you might wanna wait for the G502

Razer deathadder 2013. Don't worry much..just enjoy your mice.
I still love that 3 side button on G500.

Is wondering if any of you have issue with scrollwheel after usage a few months, no matter what brand what mouse from cheap to expensive...
From Logitech to Corsair dunno why I always struck on broken wheel (jumping around when scrolling).
Just dismantle my Corsair M95 for a cleanup, still jumpy but at least not as bad. No problem with scroll down, but problem with scroll up.

Is it really wheel broken?
Anyone have DIY solution?

This post has been edited by M1X: Apr 16 2014, 07:15 PM

I have the G700 and the cable is super heavy

few months broken scroll wheel not really, just after 1 year+ all my mouse left click register as double click, happened to all brands of mouse i used before: a4tech, logitech, razer, madcatz

add CM Storm Inferno to your list bro. mine also about 1 year+, close to 2, now starting to act up on me d

It uses microusb cable right? then just use the phone cable charger.

i did, but now i like the kinzu more

got warranty? then use it instead of buying another.. corsair HID got 2 years warranty..
or u have to try to reinstall the firmware/software for m95 can be download at http://www.corsair.com/en/support/downloads

the switch broke and work intermittent/dry solder..

changed to g500 and very happy with the lightweight braided cable, i wonder if there are braided cable for charging wireless mouse

Be reminded that the Omron switch on the G500 tend to wear out pretty quick if you click too much, that's what happen for me...twice :/

The Armaggeddon Foxbat is not bad mouse, I use it and so far no complaints It comes with the mouse weights, and without the weights it's a very very light mouse. But I think if you're looking at Armaggeddon mouse, consider the Alien G9X with mouse bungee Tarasque bundle RM130 only, good value for money

Kinzu?

http://steelseries.com/products/mice/steel...-v2-pro-edition

Heya, the new G502 finally reached to Malaysia now though. If we were to compare this with the Deathadder, I think base on specs and value for money wise the G502 would be the best bang for the buck, and we are running a pre-order now Delivery next week.

http://www.storekini.com/pre-order-logitec...ming-mouse.html

Get RM10 off with : STOREKINIG502

RM239 eh
pretty competitive pricing

hi everyone, i need a mouse to replace my double-clicking CM Storm Inferno. i need a optical mouse that is durable and comfortable. claw + palm grip hybrid. preferrably below rm200. below is a list of mices i found, but not really sure about their durability as i tend to click a lot, even while reading a wall of texts..

1. Razer DA
2. Steelseries Rival
3. CM Storm Alcor

which DA are you referring to?
anyway, my DA 2013 side grip is starting to wear off after about one year of on and off usage, so there's that.

U mean the rubber grips on the sides became sticky? What about the matte plastic on the top? Will it turn shiny?

yeah the sides are sticky and I have confirmed that it is not stains
the top on the other hand don't have any problem, fortunately.

Mine da13 top surface got wear stain...

Then i guess need to know when is cm storm alcor coming in. Cm.Storm or take SS Rival then

Oh yeah. i can't believe i able to fix the 2x click problem on left click following this guide. (SS XAI)
http://www.instructables.com/id/Repair-mou...tension-spring/

now, 2moro to send the stupid DA to RMA

Pretty normal leh top surface gets dirtier after use. Clean it frequently can liao.

those shine spots are just sweat and oil from the palm and can wipe off easily? i have sweaty palms so i worry abit

Can't I guess surface wear liao. I use dishwasher detergent to clean it.

Armageddon Phantom & GX Gila which 1 is better?

really should go buy a can of compressed air, I dismantle for second time and blow the wheel real hard and it seems to fix it
not sure how dust/dirt can get into such tight space...

do you have a link? sounds like a great deal!

The logitech g502 looking sweet but I hate rubberized grips. It usually turns sticky after 1 year of usage in my hands

any1 know where i can get the mouse switch? feels like replace it as i still luv my XAI. altho i apply temp fix on it but i doubt it will last long.
btw, locally if possible. thxs.

anyone is using gigabyte mouse?

after reading more and more about the g502, in the hunt of G9X replacement, i think i could have found the answer. damn self poisoning is heavy stuff.

initially was thinking of corsair M65, the closest claw grip I could find with good price.

Armaggeddon Malaysia Most shops that sell Armaggeddon products carry this deal --if you do get it, do tell how's the bungee and mouse

http://www.lelong.com.my/original-razer-de...5-02-Sale-P.htm

Razer Deathadder 2012 + Free Razer Goliathus mousepad = RM158
Good deal? Good mouse?

not a bad deal I guess, compared to other sellers on lelong.

Guys, among Armageddon Phantom & GX Gila which 1 you all prefer?

Eh Phantom still available meh?

Try find lo.. maybe got gua.. I got a cousin at SG, i can try ask him buy for me.

Is the buttons too light cause i tend to misclick a lot

guy
who know how to find silent mouse

Hmm... Anyone know if it is possible to get mouse feet for Logitech G400? My mouse kinda dying so I'm considering opening it up and fixing the wire problem but I'm worried the feet get damaged.

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1409024/all
maybe can PM this seller

Bought a logitech g502...however when I plug in my laptop window 7,it's show device driver install failure
Then my laptop unable to detect the mice...the G light also not on....
How can I solve this problem...thank

Have you tried plugging it into a different computer?

Hi guys,

I've been using DeathAdder Razer for years now, I heard its a good mouse if not one of the best. However, I'm getting very irritated in cleaning it, once you wipe the rubber surface, it becomes sticky and ...disgusting.

I tried all ways of cleaning it using damp cloth, alcohol wipes, etc but the stickyness remains.

I feel like getting a new mouse, but is DeathAdder Razer the only choice? Would this problem occur again or are the new models better off?

Or...what do you sifus suggest that is a better alternative to the Razer Deathadder?

Advises are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

try installing their software first before plugging in the mouse
btw how much did you bought it for?

Thanks a bunch! Never showed up on my search. =/

The newer DA13 doesn't have that sticky issue on the surface but the side rubber will turn sticky/slippery abit if you sweat.
Would love to see mionix mice here.

I don't think there's a mouse without clicky sounds .
But I do wondered if you can play games with Apple touchpad . LOL

Heavyarm does carry Mionix mouse, but only the latest model and not the Naos 7000 which IMO is a better option than the Naos 8200.
Shipping from Amazon will cost higher than buying the Naos 8200 so it's not worth it...

hi guys, need recomendation between logitech g400s, steelseries rival and razer deathadder 2013. which mouse is the best for right hand palm user for rts and fps? thanks
