I'm using the Razer Diamondback atm, all I can say is this thing is fuckin NICE in FPS, compared to others I've used I actually got better at aiming. My buddy has the Logitech G5 and loves it as well.

I have the Razer Diamondback and the Microsoft Habu.. Personally the Habu wins as it combines the comfort of an MS designed mouse with the internals and firmware/drivers of a Razer.. Razers typical design uses really odd side buttons, they're almost useless which is a huge shame (BTW, the Habu is for right handers only).. The on-board memory and interchangeable buttons help too!
Diamondback < Copperhead < Habu
(the Habu is basically a Copperhead in an MS mouse body..)

Yes, Diamondback and Copperhead are THE best mice especially when coupled with good pro-gamer pads.

Weird, I find the side buttons comfortable, I think it depends on how you hold the mouse and the size of your hand. They have the ones on the other side of the mouse in case your left handed, you change the buttons around. |

I use windows drivers for my razor but I'll check really quick
from the drivers on the disk you can only change the sensitivity and enable on the fly sensitivity so guess not.

I got a G5 and I'm very happy with it, it's fast and fits my hand perfect. I'm not using the weights that comes with the mouse, feels so unnecessary.

Just found out the Razer Diamondback doesn't have DPI switching but the copperhead does.

Sorry for the late reply dude, you made the right choice though, the Habu is an amazing mouse.. my girlfriend is currently using my diamond back with the laptop in bed ! I doubt Ill ever go back to normal mice after the habu.. BTW, which button set are you using? |
it has on the fly sensitivity changing. I thought he was talking about DPI changing. or are they the same thing. |

Using the Logitech G7 myself. It's a great mouse but I find the whole DPI changing to be pointless for my needs (and it wastes two perfectly good buttons on the mouse). Find a sensitivity and DPI level your comfortable with and stick with it! The only place I can see it of being use is in games where sniping is critical but I don't know of any.

We had this discussion before many o times but don't matter. G5 the one and only for me. Killed, shot, bombed, sunk, maimed, surfed, slashed, hacked, clicked and scrolled with my G5 to the point its almost time to buy a new one  . The color on the left mouse btn is almost non existent...G5 the one and only.

Yup its a treat, sometimes I use them on my nipple clamps
Na but really, its the best mouse out there IMHO. The weights gives it that extra touch of quality.

The battery in the wireless G7 doubles up as the same thing
I like to move my mouse around a lot (I have an L shaped desk) and make room for steering wheels and joysticks and coursework so a wireless solution has become second nature. It's also very handy when you don't have track-ir and want to use a 'natural' freelook easily and conveniently.
But I imagine the G5 is just as good at what it does, I simply detest wired mice and couldn't go back.
