So i currently have the Logitech MX 3200 wireless mouse and keyboard, personally ( a small rant) i find the keyboard to have a small lag when typing which i am used to now, but was very noticeable when i first bought it. The mouse is good, but when gaming i question if the fact its wireless (and a budget logitech mouse) affects the sensitivity and stuff. Its really hard to explain but gaming on it (First PShooters) just feels weird.

So do you guys have any recommendations for wired/wireless gaming mice? It doesnt have to be EXTREME as far as buttons on it are concerned, i just want a very precise accurate mouse. Preferably wired to be honest, just cause then i dont have to have 2 usb wireless receivers (one for my MX 3200 keyboard and the other for a new mouse).

Thanks guys.
 
Razer Deathadder, Microsoft Sidewinder X8

those are some other options.

+1 for the X8.

After having gone wireless, I will never go back to wired again. The response is just as good as wired and you don't have the hassle of the cable.

What style grip do you use on the mouse, size, ambidextrous or not?

All im really used to is this style mouse : http://assets.logitech.com/external...tionid=78&vpath=Cordless Desktop MX3200 Laser

size would deff be large, i have big hands (im 6'4). And though im left handed, all i use is right handed mice.

Looking at these all on newegg:

The X8 looks good, has really mixed reviews.
G9x looks way to small, though has amazing reviews.
G500 looks great (besides stupid pattern).

EDIT: Just realized a strong reason why i want the mouse to be wireless. So wireless only. I might have to amazon the X8 and if i dont like it or have issues, return it.

The X8 is one of the larger mice, I have one for sale if your interested.
 
G9x is an excellent mouse. I thought the size and shape was off for me but I ended up loving this mouse.
 
Just bought the G700 for $54 at newegg.com. Was a great deal and looks like a fantastic mouse so i am excited. Thanks for the recommendations guys.

Darn, I wish I'd seen the special deal on G700 at Newegg before I ordered at Amazon.

I just hope I don't get the wireless precision problem and have to use the cable all the time.
 
G9x (if you don't mind claw grip) or MX518. Played a bit w/ Razer Copperhead, that wasn't too bad either.
 
After experiencing wireless interference with my wireless mouse i went back to wired. Hated to do it but have not had any control issues since.
 
Razer Mamba is the best mouse ever if you mainly play FTS (Well, as long as you can live with standard number of button, then you can use it for everything)
 
KISS aka Keep It Simple Stupid.

Intellimouse 3.0 or Logitech MX518 or if you prefer Razer products, then the Deathadder.
 
I've really enjoyed my Logitech G9 for the past few years, it's rock solid if you don't like a large mouse. Just ordered a Gigabyte Ghost M8000X, I'll post a review when I get it, I've heard great things about this mouse.
