Hi, I'm looking for a new gaming mouse games for mostly mmo's, I've got a cm storm devastator mouse from a keyboard mouse combo but it's constantly disconnecting which is a great annoyance whilst trying to play any games. Could someone please recommend me some which don't go over my budget?

hmm, the g502 looks nice and has some good reviews. @thewonderspud, I know I said cheap but a gaming mouse for £10 just doesn't even come into consideration with me, unfortunately all it took was one look at the price to decide that it wasn't worth it in the long run.

I use it with one of my PCs and have for a while. No issues, looks badass, works flawlessy, wireless and macro keys...
Why does price put you off so much?

He has a 40gbp budget, under which several high-end gaming mice from major companies falls depending where you buy. Why are you recommending generic chinese garbage, and wireless at that?

Oh, another good option from Logitech, the G402. Its a bit simpler than the G502, has the same sensor as the G302 I believe.

Had mine for around 18 months ,replaced the Teflon pads twice now but its still working as new & is an absolute pleasure to use.

I actually have the tecknet branded one (was bought for £20) & after receiving it originally was that impressed I bought another as a backup which is still sat brand new in the box nearly 2 years down the line.

Always bought Logitech before these - but sub £40 the anker is as good or better than anything out there IMO.

Now I remember why I stopped actively participating in the Tom's forums. People recommending generic junk that costs more than a good quality name brand mouse.

The G402 and G302 that I linked are 3gbp cheaper than that anker, and have a far more accurate sensor. Granted the Anker has higher DPI, but you can have as much DPI as you want, but if the sensor isn't accurate it does you no good, and also most people won't use more than 4000 anyway.

Oh, just a side note, I've been using gbp instead of the symbol because I live in the US and do not have a key for that on my keyboard.
