[young spaghetti]

so i recently just bought a bunch of stuff from dell.com and i have a bunch of rewards so i was thinking about getting a good mouse. i got $85 and id like to only spend $85, if thats possible.

As for Mice; Dell.com has very little for that; mostly just Wireless junk.

Buy from Newegg or Amazon if u can.

Look at ones like Logitech G500S or G502
Or go to a store like BestBuy or MicroCenter and se
e them in person to better get a feel for what you might like.

Man choosing a mouse is like choosing your haircut. You'll get a dozen opinions and still wont be wiser. Gotta make up your own mind.

If you're limited to the DELL shop though, there aint that many options. Basicly some Logitech models or a Roccat. I'm using the Logitech G502 myself and am very pleased. Sadly they don't carry it. They do carry it's little brother, the G402 though. So i'll go with that. Or you could go for the wireless G602. I wouldn't recommend any wireless mice though. They're unfit for competitive gaming and just a hassle overall.

Never used Roccat so can't comment on those.

Logitech G502 is so money. Going to be my mouse for a while.

Logitech G500 series or Razer Deathadder series, hands down the best gaming mice with last, no glimick, have everything you need and nothing you don't. The Logitech G500 can last at least 8 years, with daily gaming abuse and still work like the day you purchased it. Get a Razer Goliathus Speed Edition mousepad to complete either of these mices, it just adds more to the performance/speed/smoothness.

G500 are not solid anymore; but u can still get G500S on places like Amazon.
For the older but still very good G500, u'd have to resort to Ebay and such places.

[young spaghetti]

I'm gonna sound stupid but what's the point of 20 buttons on a mouse?

[zexx11]

Logitech G502.

[young spaghetti]

Like why do I need 20 buttons?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Thats why those are called "MMO" mice; those extra buttons do come in very handy for your spells and other quick-actions.

But yea I personally don't like any MMO type mouse cause of how it's hard to grip when one side is ALL buttons.

I prefer G400, G402, G500, G500S, G502
Those are all very good.

[young spaghetti]

Yeah I'm not a fan of mmos like dota or league.

Well even with the # of buttons on say; G500, G500S, or G502; there are enough with those mice to come in handy for what extras you might need in most games. You can even set the DPI/Polling Rate in Logitech Gaming Software; then go and use those DPI up/down buttons on the mouse as extra buttons for other things if u don't need to have them stay as DPI up/down buttons anymore for on the fly DPI switching.

For example; I have my G500 setup like this for GTAV.
Left / Right / Middle are their defaults
Back = Look Behind
Forward = Horn/Siren toggle (call for mission when in certain vehicle, such as Taxi or Tow-Truck)
ALT = Toggle Steam In-Game Overlay
DPI Up/Down = For changing my songs when I have radio on "Self Radio" which is playing MP3s from the GTA folder I put in there.

I highly recommend you to try out a bunch of mice in your hands (if possible) before buying. I've bought several uncomfortable mice over public reviews and friends' suggestions.
Few names I can name from the top of my head are: Steelseries Rival, Logitech G402 and some of the latest Zowie mice.
