hello to the community!

I am thinking of buying a gaming mouse for my boyfriend,but i dont know so many things (therefore i have searched a bit). i wll buy it from an e-shop of my country (not from amazon) and i am among these mice:

corsair katar
logitech g300s
roccat lua
corsair raptor m45 and a cheapier one,
sharkook shark zone m20

i dont want to give more than 50-60 euro. i wll gift him headsets too (hyperx cloud), so money is limited :p plz anyone who had or has any of these or any recommendation, i would appreciate it. !!

some useful details: i prefer to be a wired gaming mouse(maybe laser?laser mice are more suitable for gaming?), but not a razer. xP

thx a lot!!!

My Steelseries Rival mouse has outlived every other mouse I have owned... but it is not the most comfortable, and it does not have cable sheathing. Still, it's an excellent mouse in my opinion.

Most other mice have a cloth sleeve along the length of the cable as added protection against kinks, cuts etc. Not too important to me, but it still looks high-class. It's maybe more important that you decide between a larger or smaller mouse. My hands are not large, still I prefer a large, heavy mouse, and symmetrical shape rather than contours. My old TTSports mouse it my favorite for comfort, but it's scroll wheel failed within a year.

Yeah I agree with that. I've been using the Corsair K65 RGB for a while now and it's a great mouse but while it works for me it may not work for the next person.

lol u watch much simpsons :p - which is good :p but the corsair k65 is a little unaffordable for me.. wat about the M95?

spankmon, yeah i see ur point, i know thats important.. this brand (tt) never heard it before. omg i love their design. they are awesome, best design in mice i ve ever seen imao!u meant this? http://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-eSports-Black-Gaming-MO-BLK002DT/dp/B003ZUXXW4 i liked also this http://www.ttesports.com/productpage.aspx?p=16&g=ftr , in the site it has 52 euros. but i havent heard of them again, im a little hesitate to buy it. but i ll see :p i cant decide and now i saw that corsair M45 isnt anymore on sale on the site :O ..

and eventually, laser mouse is better for gaming? for overwatch for example? or is the same thing? which lives longier? sorry too many things >.<

Wow.. Nicw work. :O this must have taken you hours!!i can only recommend you to add in greek sites the www.skroutz.gr.. Its a very popular site here and it relates the best prices for a product in e-shops (and not only) of greece!

As for my decision, i wll buy log. G502 proteus core more likely..if the e shop can bring one here..otherwise i would go for optical mouse eventually thx all for ur help!!! It was a great help!!
