What I use http://www.logitech.com/en-us/mice-poin ... mouse-g500

Newer version of what i use http://www.logitech.com/en-us/mice-poin ... mouse-g700

Tried the 700 and its feel great. Not a fan of a telephone number pad on a mouse so I stay away from razer.

The steelseries Diablo mouse doesn't look half bad.

http://steelseries.com/products/games/d ... -iii-mouse

I think it's around $70 MSRP, but I think I saw it on sale. The sight says it has 7 buttons, so assuming the regular mouse has 3, that's 4 extra buttons (2 on the left, 2 on the right).

It's the same shell and button layout, and color scheme, but the internal hardware is different.

The Sensei has a processor on the inside that allows for the higher CPI and on-the-fly adjustments, such as the 11k CPI, auto sensitivity, and path correction (and possibly more features).

The Sensei also has an LCD screen on the bottom.

The Diablo mouse doesn't have those features, but says it has a 10 million click lifespan, which probably is about the same as other high-quality mice. All the same, I couldn't find a click lifespan for the Sensei.

As you can see, the Sensei has more features. It's also $90, whereas the Diablo mouse is $70 and out of stock.

http://shop.steelseries.com/us/mice.html has a lot of cheap mice. By cheap I mean around the $40 or $50 range, and a lot look to be the same general frame as the Diablo and Sensei mice.

From what I hear, G500 is one of the most tried-and-true mice in the history of PC gaming. Not as flashy as some, but used by more gamers than any other single mouse. (Also, I think Logitech stands behind their warranties pretty well.)
and stuff
