Thanks

I've heard good things about Roccat, all depends on your budget though. Even the Sidewinder X5/X8 are ok mice, personally logitech G500 ftw

Edit: PS Stay away from those cheap brands eg Canyon and Prestigio, you can pick up good Gigabyte and Coolermaster mice for nearly the same price, the page you linked is a little limited

I happen to think Prestigio make great mice. Mines several years old already.

I find the Logitech range the most comfortable .... G500 or MX518(have 4x of these ) ... although I would prefer the "texture" of the MX510 on the MX518

Great mice and worth a look:

Coolermaster

Coolermaster also has a Storm Sentinal worth looking at too

And a adjustable one

Well yes it all comes down to what you want from a mouse, for office work and surfing the web anything should be fine. As soon as you demand more from your hardware these generic brands just dont cut it

Thanks guys appreciate all the great help.

I cant really comment on Razer mice, i have never used any of them but i heard allot of folks like the death adder

Not sure who the agents are though

Tell me guys can you adjust the DPI on this one?
Mo-RLBM Razer Lachesis - Black with Multi-colour led 5600dpi 3.5G laser Mouse

5600 DPI is a bit much

 

[Terumo]

Yes you can, tbh its an older generation mouse with new equipment and its ambidextrous

Wonder where I can get one now?

 

[Terumo]

Well I use it over a MX-310 & MX-518 lying in the drawer. Suppose it boils down to personal preference.

Guys is this a better option:

That is also a good mouse but i have found its not as comfortable as the G500, is has inter changeable grips witch helps but still feels kinda awkward.
Yes ponder it is totally personal preference but still that mx518 is a 6+ year old mouse, all up to the user imo
