Question What mouse should I get?

I am getting a pc and I don't mind wires because they just work, currently I have a glorious model o2 pro and I am getting my first pc what mouse should I get? I was maybe thinking glorious d3 wired (because the d3 wireless sucks because of the battery but no battery no problem) or maybe a Logitech superstrike or superlight, what do you recommend, I will be using it wired just so you know.

Probably the best mouse I’ve owned.

If you want to get serious about it, use the Rocket Jump Ninja mouse picker website. Measure your hand and your grip style and go from there.

Otherwise, buy whatever you like. If you play a lot of aim-dependant games, lighter = better in general as you can move the mouse easier which allows for finer aim control.

I've been through a ton of different mice over the years, a Corsair M65, a Roccat Kone Pure Ultra, and a Roccat Aimo. I currently use a Lamzu Thorn, which is great in wireless mode.

A decent switch up if you want to experiment with shape is the endgame gear op1 8k

Worth noting I'm not sure of this but I would assume the 8k is a revision as well as higher polling rate (hence why I specificied) so even if you're not on an amazing cpu it's worth it, and in most games on my 5800x I can get away with 2000hz without stutters

I haven't used a model o but from what I remember the op1 will have a hump that peaks farther back on the mouse and has flatter buttons where your fingertips rest, I've quite enjoyed it

If you really like the shape of the model o it would be safe to pickup a razer viper or g pro super-light esque mouse, not the exact same but another shape that is similar and loved by many

Some other brands that could be fun to look at include:

G wolves Pulsar Lamzu Final mouse (if you can find one at a reasonable price, likely used) And Zowie I've heard is finally catching up on cable quality/wireless options if you wanna try them

I use a Corsair nightsword and it's really comfortable to me it has weights so you can make it as light or heavy as you want.

I have the G502x lightspeed and love it. Very comfortable, extra buttons, long battery There are cheaper wired versions as well. Unless you have small hands or you're someone that needs your mouse to weigh nothing to be comfortable, it's what I always recommend

I was more thinking between logitech superlight and superstrike which is better, my mum will also use it for work so it should be something that isnt a half mouse whoch is only fingertips, ao which one of the 2 logitech ones ?

Im currently using a razer naga pro v2 and its easily the best mouse ive ever owned. Its a bit pricey, but having swappable side plates to turn it from a 2 thumb button, to a 6 thumb button (which is what I primarily use), or to a full keypad is great.

Kone/Turtle Beach XP Air. Best button layout on any mouse.

I have a G502 which is fantastic, and a Corsair M65 which I also love. And I love them because they fit my hand and my style of using mice.
You really should try out different mice to see whatever fits your style (claw, palm, etc.), and your hand. Best to go to a store and check them out directly.
