have you tried the mice w/ the optical switches? you have to click a lot to break em
Probably not unless one of the off-brand trackballs I tried accidentally had them, and I've been full-trackball since I ditched the desk a few years ago. I'll try one next time the wife needs a mouse though.

I bought it. For $30, I'll try a wireless gaming mouse. I really didn't want to pay $100+ for a wireless mouse. If it lasts, great! If not I'll move on to something a bit more. I was looking at the Logitech G502 wired version since it's on sale for $40 right now.
Cool , I don't need RGB so I keep it turned off. Battery life seems to be pretty decent. Not sure what it would be if you keep the lights on.

I've been using a Razer Basilisk v3 Pro for a while now. It feels better built than the last Razer mouse I tried (Naga Trinity I think?), but most importantly, It has the closest scroll wheel to the MX Master 3S that I use for work. Not a cheap mouse, but if it holds up it'll be well worth it.

All I wanted from Logitech was to put the MX Master scroll wheel on a gaming mouse with 3+ thumb buttons and they never did. Even if I had to replace their shit switches every few years I would have bought a mouse like that.

Snagged this to give a try. It's a great feeling keyboard. The thock is incredibly satisfying. It's mostly plastic, so the price is a bit high, but it is great to type/game on. 8/10


Also snagged this keyboard, corsair K65 with hot swaps. And the creamy silents. 7/10. The switches are veeeeeery smooth all the way to bottom out.

Crazy how far computers have come from when I first got into them. That first keyboard looks cool as hell but, yeah, if the premium feel isnt there $100+ seems a bit much.

I hate looking for new mice. The Naga Hex imo was perfect. The thumb button placement is just great. 6-7 buttons , close with a thumbpad in the middle for easy access. Every other "mmo" mouse either the front/back buttons are just out of reach for quick use + the software tends to be shit. Currently using the Corsair Darkstar because its "close" but the buttons are just kind of in shit locatins. The middle thumb bottoms are just super awkward to hit . Software for corsair has gotten better but I still feel the older Razor software is still the best for bindings/macros.

I highly recommend Pulsar Mice.

Considered them in the past but I need a mouse with a lot of thumb buttons. I hate taking my fingers off movement keys for any WASD (ESDF in my case) games. Also WASD people are weird considering ESDF leaves your fingers on the home key(s)
