I'd like to replace my MS Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 with something newer and with a higher cpi/dpi.
I'm looking for feedback on the mouse (mice) that you own/use.
Requirements:
Wired
USB
>400 cpi/dpi
<=$50
If you like yours, what do you like about it?
If you have something that you don't like, I'd like to hear from you too.

I would recommend the Logitech G5 Laser Mouse. I's a 5 button mouse with 2000 DPI (adjustable on the fly in game) with a 1000 report rate and has adjustable weights and a highly ergonomic design. It's only $50 now (I paid a bit more when it first came out). I upgraded to this from the MX518 (same shape and optical) and I pwn with it and you can too   |

Have the Logitech G5 - very happy with the mouse. Good DPI; love ability to adjust weight; good quality construction and wire
I don't play sniper or anything that takes super-precision, etc. so take my comments for what they are worth

Thanks for all the feedback. I swung by my local used-to-be-tiger-direct-is-now-comp-usa and picked up a G5.
@Taylor is still owning me this afternoon - I know it's going to take some time to get used to the new mouse.
(For all you forum readers in the future, assume that I like the mouse, unless I post a reply w/ a problem)

I upgraded from a Razer Diamondback to a Logitech MX518. I love it. The side buttons are very easy to use, compared to the razer. It's VERY light (the box felt empty when I got it), and I love light mice, since it gives me the ability to be much more agile.
The reason I went with the mx518 instead of the g5 is because it was optical. The Razer Diamondback was infrared, which did not work well on shiny surfaces (like a finished piece of wood you would have on your desk.). I never had a laser mouse, but a guy who lived near me last semester had a G5. It felt the same as the MX518, but I did not notice much of a difference.

Logitech is the way to go for an FPS mouse. I love my G3...I'm keeping it until it breaks or the G5 comes down under 30$

Give the guy a break, he had to sell a lot of oranges and mangoes to buy that mouse and those hacks. |
