looking at a new mouse

memory · 08-29-2009, 04:15 AM

I am looking into getting a new mouse since my current G7 mouse is about to bite the dust, I think. Every few minutes it will freeze for a few seconds. I have read that this is a pretty common problem with this mouse.

I may go wired this time so I wouldn't have to deal with batteries. I will probably stick with Logitech unless someone can convince me otherwise. This mouse will be for gaming and regular desktop use. I might want to get one that has weights. Which mouse would you guys recommend?

Logitech works well.

The Logitech G5 or the Sindwinder is my favorites.

Logitech G5 since your used to the shape of the G7, or upgrade a bit and get a G9 or G9x.

I've had G5's for awhile now and I love them. But if there is a store with some display models out, handle them all and see what you like.

Thanks for the suggestions. I went ahead and bought the Logitech g9x and I am loving it. It was a bit pricey but I think it is worth it.
