Help me selecting new gaming mice.

Hi I was using CM Storm Recon from almost two years and recently it started giving problems like delayed clicks, not detecting double clicks and sometimes random movement. So i sent it back to company and they are giving me an option of getting CM Storm Mizar or CM Storm Alcor as free replacement or other cm mice with paying the difference.
Also they gave an option to have the full amount which I paid as refund?
What should I choose?
Thanks!
 
I've been using the logitech g700s for the last year and a half and I really like it not to mention that you can program the buttons to do whatever you like. I also like the adjustable dpi in the fly and the battery indicator on the side. I would take the refund and get something else. You have to put your hands on the mice to decide what is best for you so go to the store and try some out for yourself. Best buy, tiger direct and even office depot have them on display for you to mess around with.
 
Amazon has the Razer deathadder for $50 or the Deathadder Chroma for $55

I have the Deathadder 2013 and its a great mouse for FPS's. Love it. If you want a mouse with rows and rows of macro buttons however you will need to look for something else.

I actually want atleast two programmable buttons. I am not a MMO player, just FPS.

Well the deathadder has two side buttons that are programmable.

For reference most counter strike global offensive professionals use one of the following; Razer Deathadder, Zowie FK, or the SteelSeries Rival.

Thats even bigger than recon. How does it compare to Logitech G602 and CM Storm Mizar.
Also could please suggest me any from Roccat or Logitech brands within my budget to compare with.
Thanks
 
Im not a fan of any wireless mouse, so I would rule the G602 out immediately, as for the CM storm Mizar, its the same basic design as the Zowie FK, Deathadder, Kone pure, etc. So it's probably decent, but I haven't used it personally.

For Roccat you have the Roccat KONE Pure.


For Logitech you really only have the M500 for wired mice.

I just got a CM Storm Mizar last week. I like the shape (biased a bit to right handers) clicks feel good. It is a little bit smaller than the SteelSeries Sensei it replaced.

The mouse feels a bit lighter than other gaming mice. Specs say it is only ~3 grams less than the SteelSeries. I would have guessed the difference was much more.

How is the mice performing? Sensitivity and ergonomics? Is it comfortable?

deathadder or abyssus (you want 2 buttons, so not the abyssus)
logitech G400s
zowie fk1 or fk2 (fk2 is slightly smaller)
pretty much the whole SS brand
the undying, classic microsoft intellimouse explorer 3.1

pick one of the first 3 and you're set.

I'm using the Mizar mouse on my work computer. My gaming rig has a EVGA Torq x10. As I said above, I like my gaming mice on the heavier side. The Torq has adjustable weights. The Mizar does not.

I use a fingertip grip. It is pretty comfortable, but I like mice that follow the Microsoft Comfort Mouse shape.

The mouse wheel has pretty firm indents. With a fingertip grip it is pretty hard to get to the side button in the front. DPI adjustment is where I like it, but I usually cycle through the front button.

The mouse feet are relatively small, even for a regular mouse. I suspect they'll wear down pretty quickly.

The sensor is offset towards the front of the mouse. I prefer this setup compared to mice that set it in the middle or towards the palm.

Haven't messed too much with the profiles. Just set everything to work with a dual monitor setup.
 
Thanks for the reply. So i recently found out that Razer provides only one year warranty in my country and too get second warranty you have go through a very long process which involves sending mails to company and sending images after manually cutting the chord of the mice and all that crap.
So razer is totally out of consideration now.
Which leaves my options limited to CM Storm, Steelseries, Logitech, Mad Catz, Tt eSports and Roccat.
Better if you could one from :

You can suggest even from out of stock models. I will get them.
Thanks
