those mouses u posted look like they have good performance but I c they have really bad of a rating can some one explain to me what dpi is and how if higher more meccesary
 
One is not yet rated and the other is a 4 out of 5. They are virtually the same mouse other then some cosmetics. As far as DPI goes...

I suck at explaining things but the more DPI the more sensitive the mouse is giving precise control basically.
 
I tend to turn down the DPI. Otherwise it is to sensitive and flies across the screen. So for me having an Uber sensitive mouse is worthless. I just could never get used to one.

so like if I tap it it will move faster or like halfway across the screen with a little push

no, not like that
thats something you can edit under the mouse properties in the control panel.
dpi means dots per inch
for a mouse, more dots per inch essentially means it will be more accurate.
well its not literally like that
but
hm
example
lets say i have a mouse that has like a 4dpi and i have one that has a 4000dpi
if i move around the 4dpi one the pointer is probably going to be shaky, maybe it wont even moove

if i move around the 4000dpi one it will be smooth and it will match almost exactly what your hand is doing

even thats not a good explanation

haha
sorry, i tried


look it up
 
dude dont get that mouse , get a MX518. So much better, and also dont get it off newegg, get it off ebay, cause i got mine for $30

Agreed. Great mouse with all the buttons you will ever need. Good value, moulds to the hand well and solidly built. The only reasons I see for someone not getting this mouse are: 1. The are rich and want to splash out on an MX Revolution OR 2. The don't digg the whole "fake-bullet-holes" design.
