With online gaming being as competitive as it is these days, you will no doubt want to take advantage of every opportunity available (short of cheating) to gain an edge over your online foes. Today we are taking a look at five gaming mice that aim to do just that.

Considering it would be nearly impossible to cover all options we have gone with the usual suspects which usually carry the best ergonomics and sensor technology available at any given time.

Meet the cream of the crop: from Logitech, the G5 and G9 mice. Microsoft is represented by the Sidewinder and Habu mice, while Razer rounds out the group with the Lachesis gaming mouse.

Wow 6 Pages on a mouse (in review) very thorough :grinthumb
Can I ask where all this reviewed hardware goes once you test it fully?
Do you use an online auction or something?

Thank you.

We either return it to the manufacturer or use it internally. This sometimes helps revealing long term usage quirks or the true excellence of the product, which ultimately goes into a feedback loop on future articles we write and everything else we report at TS.

Logitech products are amazing for almost everything. I use an MX510 and I bought a G5 but I still use the MX. I would suggest the G5 is you have fairly large hands.

edit: great read, thank you!

I totally understand where you are coming from... I'm still using the MX518 which does wonders for me. Probably getting a Habu or a G5 eventually to replace it but I'm in no rush.

I'm also using a wired Razer mouse with my laptop, even lighter and very sensitive tracking.

Woooooord! the 518 is one sweet desktop piece.

Was wondering, do you have a review on keyboards? YOu really seem to know your stuff, I'll be looking forward to one if one does not exist yet.

P.S. is a keyboard review really worth it????

We'll probably never delve too deep on keyboards just because those have an even broader range of brands and models, so it's even harder to draw conclusions when it can all be subjective.

That said, this is something we have had in our sights for some time now:
