Yeah, some people like more buttons. Also, m Logitech gaming mouse is the most ergonomic mouse I have used. I think that if you have equipment you are going to use a lot in each day, picking the cheapest option isn't always the best way to go. That's why I'm usually rather picky with my keyboard/mouse.

Is a gaming mouse really worth the expense, or is it just a gimmick to get money from you? I don't know why an ordinary, 5 dollars discount mouse can't work for most things.

It's worth it. I bought a gaming mouse mostly because I was getting into pixel art and I wanted to have a precise mouse that worked reliably.

I have the Razer mouse + mat. My previous setup was a wireless Logitech with some worn out mat. It's just better in ways I can't describe.

A five dollar mouse will work, but you're going to get worse accuracy, response time, durability and build quality. I think 70 bucks or whatever they cost is worth dropping for a good, comfortable mouse that will last for years.

More expensive mouse will generally have better ergonomics (smaller chance of RSI etc.), higher resolution (800 DPI vs 800-3500DPI for example), higher quality materials and therefore better grip, more durability...

You've got ball(s) of rubber.

Good grief the gunk it used to get onto the rollers. Never going back

Mouse hygiene is important.

i had a wireless mouse once, and it'd always fuck up right in the middle of important game happenings. wasn't even a problem with the battery. i threw it away. now i use a cheapish gaming mouse. the high dpi and the side buttons actually make a pretty big difference. in fpss, side buttons are pretty nice for melee / grenade, and in dotas, theyre good for items you have to reuse a lot (phase boots or w/e.)

high dpi mice are also good for multiple monitor setups / high resolution monitors, since you can up the cursor velocity without losing small movement accuracy. (move from one monitor to the other easily, while still clickin' pixels or whatever.)

My Logitech G500 has been working like a charm for a while now.
