Looking for new Computer Mouse
I'm in the market for a new computer mouse. I currently have a Razer Deathadder. On my 2nd one actually. But after this one has come down with the same problem that the last one had (left click double clicks more than half the time) and after googling that problem and seeing that it is very common, I have decided to not go back to Razer mice.
However, I really like the feel of the Razer Deathadder. It fits my hand really well, and I really like the two side buttons. I'm looking for a similar style of mouse but I have no clue what else is out there and how reliable they are.
Any idea of where to start my search? Recommendations?

I've never used a deathadder but it looks like a claw/fingertip type of mouse
Pluto was a planet and I'll never forget
Also this. Go to a best buy or similar so you can play around with a few mice.
I'd try cleaning the contact in your mouse before you replace it... I've had that happen with lots of mice, and the solution is normally some rubbing alcohol a couple of cotton swabs and a screwdriver.

You can turn off all the lights and stuff so it's pretty low key. But seriously, after a lot of shopping and reading a ton of reviews I got this thing and I love it so far.
I swapped to a sensei about 2 years ago when my second deathadder got that exact same double left click problem again. Cleaning doesn't fix it, they just all seem to do it eventually. I'd guess razor went real cheap on the buttons.
It's a way better built mouse.
I also have this one and really like it. Very comfortable, weighty, and smooth. There are three side buttons that sit under my thumb and the middle one doubles as a middle mouse click, which works extremely well. I've found with other mice I will try to middle click and end up scrolling, which in certain games causes me to switch weapons before zooming in, like I wanted.
As far as input devices for your PC are concerned, you really can't do much better than them.
But, I love my R.A.T. 7. It is fucking fantastic. It's going on 3 years of perfect service, it is by far the most comfortable mouse I have ever held, it is built like a brick shithouse, and thanks to the weight customisation it is nice and weighty in my oversize mitts.
Very good ergonomics for gaming, a solid scroll wheel, and easy-to-press side buttons that I actually use
I'm very much in this camp, I've been very happy with my R.A.T. 7 as well. There MIGHT be a small tracking issue developing however, but I won't chalk that up to the mouse until I've thoroughly cleaned my mouse pad. Will update this weekend.
Yeah most mice.
Especially if you have a habit of eating oily things like chips around it.
Occasionally mine gets a little bit of dreck in the sensor and stops tracking either horizontally or vertically, but when that happens I just give it the ol' Nintendo blow, and it's good as new again.
