Hello guys!

So I've been wondering... What kind of mice you guys use, and what grip style (Claw,Fingertip,Palm,some kind of hybrid)?

I use a really old Logitech Value optical mouse (two times used as a flail, still going strong!) and with a weird claw/fingertip hybrid I guess.

Also, general recommendations are welcome!

That's a bit extreme! Is it comfy? How would you rate the build quality?

The mouse is comfier than my favourite pair of slippers. That said, I'm on my second one after the first developed a problem with the laser, and stopped tracking movement. Luckily I was about a year into the 2yr warranty, but even so it was a bit of a disappointment when my RAT got blinded ;__;

Haha! Thanks :)

A while ago I was using some brand or other of glass gaming pad but, to be honest, there isn't any better mousepad than the square foot of desk immediately to the right of my keyboard!

I use a Roccat mousepad.
It feels awesome because it isn't big and isn't made only for the right hand (i hate that).
I have it only for like ... 10 months?
And so far it seems pretty awesome :3

Since my TrackMan died (3 buttons under thumb, scroll/3 buttons under index, middle-oriented trackball, right under ring; ~9 years of life on that thing; I love Logitech) I'm now using a Logitech M570. Thumb-oriented trackball, resting palm grip, 2 buttons under index, 1 button under middle, scroll/button and right under ring. A lot of people ask how one uses a trackball for gaming, but when you have essential tremors it's better than traditionals. This model's ball has a lot more grip since it's side-mounted (and the grip heads need cleaning more often as a result), so it takes a little getting used to the extra resistance, but accuracy and control are spot on once you adapt. I miss my 8 buttons from the TrackMan, but I prefer the thumb-oriented ball on the M570.

That's a really expensive one in my country, sure as hell looks good too. How does it feel? How old is it? What kind of mouse pad do you use?

it feels nice plus the wireless mode feels responsive (sometimes a tiny delay if not moved for a while aka sleep mode)
using a goliathus pad with it.. battery can run low on a full day of gaming if not put on recharger during breaks (but you can put the wired cord from charging stand into the mouse so even thats not a big issue)
great mouse at a crappy price i guess :)

I also use a kind of claw/fingertip sort of thing. It just feels right. =P

I'm using some basic $20 Logitech mouse, but I'm looking to find a really good white gaming mouse to match my new PC case, as well as a keyboard. Just wish there was some place around where I could test out a bunch of them. =/

I know that feel bro.
What kind of extras you look forward in the keyboard? (Mechanical,backlit,etc) I researched a lot before I got mine.
Mouse is an entire different universe tho... :(

I've been using a Logitech performance mouse MX for the past 2 months. It's alright, but not worth the price in my opinion. As soon as I find a good sale, I'm going to get a new mouse and try to sell the old one. I use the palm grip.

The shape seems to look like a Lachiesis http://www.kuzniewski.pl/galerie/r/razer-lachesis-refresh-r_116031.jpg isn't it? It only comes with green led? What mouse pad do you use?

Taipan has a better shape than Lachiesis. Yeah it comes only in green, but thats prety cool.
I use it on a SteelSeries QcK+ mousepad. I definately recomend that pad, except that it's size is f**king HUGE XD

I own 2 Razer products for quite some time and they work like charm. A friend uses a Razer mouse and keyboardfor over 3 years and they still work like new. Maybe "some" have problems from the factory, but you can get a new one from waranty.

My Naga mouse and Lycosa keyboard still work fine. For every ten fanboys, there are the anti-fanboys, the haters.

That was true only for the old Razer company thing. Razer is owned by different people now, and its products' quality has improved greatly.

Now getting a Razer Naga, hoping it has a good performance and the wheel/middle mouse is resistant enough, using a fingertip grip, since my big hand does not allow for a proper grip without losing control over it.

I liked my first generation Razer Naga. The mouse wheel eventually gave out, which I do blame on myself. I'm really hard on mouse wheels. Have been since the appeared. I flick it when bored.

Thanks for that feedback, i'm looking for something reliable, and since my wireless mouse seems to work whenever it wants to (AA batteries only work in a certain position apparently, something that changes as soon as i move the mouse around), i want to make sure i get something that's reliable and holds for some time...
