What mouse do you all use? Thinking about buying a laser optical. Razer or Logitech? Polling rate make much of a diff? Tweaks for firing faster?

I'm using a crappy Logitech mx300.

cheers from the home of the best bud.

Just a basic Microsoft optical here...

But yeah, looking into a better one myself.
Been told optical is better than laser.. but I dunno...

i currently am using a logitech G5.

i do not recommend it.

It is a great mouse in function. However it doesnt last very long. If it were a cheap mouse i wouldnt mind. i'd buy a new mouse every three or four months if it were thirty or less bucks. But i paid $55 or $65 for it, i expect more. Most of my meece last at least a year. i should have known better about this choice of G5 too, i saw a post saying that thiers didnt last very long. i was hooked on the specs and was hoping it was a fluke. Now my left click works 3/4 time, and the right click works 3/4 to 1/2 the time.

i'll be gettings a mx518 or something.

Logitech MX510 (no software installed), Thermaltake plastic light-up mousing surface, and USB rate upped to 500hz.

I'm quite pleased with this combination.

I have been running a logitech g5 now since Jan. and have had excellent results thus far.

I'm using a generic ball mouse. It doesn't even have a company logo because no company wants to be associated with this piece of crap.

I ordered a Microsoft optical though. I love eBay.

travolta, yes, it easily lives up to its specs. It is extremely customizeable. Weights, polling rate, etc. Relatively comfortable.

as much as i love it, i can't recommend it though.

i think the mx500 series is the best mouse for the money out there. It is 80% of what the G5 is. Plus, im sure you could overclock an mx500something to about what the G5 will do. Close enough at least. i wont buy another.
