sorry wrong section i know, i don't know where to post it.

i need a good gaming mouse,

i hade the Habu mouse, i liked the feel and the size and the extra mappable buttons and the lights.

is there any comperable mouse with a simular size? and i also need a good backlit keyboard. preferably white backlights, any suggestions?

they also HAVE to be Wired. wireless is a waste of batteries for my setup

thanks

and mods feel free to move this post to the right section.

Best to post this is the Other PC hardware

Sorry for double post.... Computer is playing funny buggers.

To actually add something I personally like the Razor mice.

i do too, i had the Habu mouse until my dog ate the cord.

i'm looking at gettin a Logitch Illuminated Keyboard, but $80 is pretty expensive (i'm used to $4.99 keyboards, or the OEM keyboards.)

do you know where there are some coupons or discounts or anything for the logitech illuminated keyboard?

it is pretty old, so the price should have dropped, but somehow it's still expensive.

A mouse and keyboard for gaming, I'm assuming.

It's hard recommending a mouse because everyone has different hand sizes, so what's comfortable for one could be awkward for another.

I've had the Lachesis, mx 518, habu, and g9x.

Out of the first 3 I liked the habu the most followed by the 518. These days I'm using the g9x and absolutely love it.

For a keyboard I use a Reclusa, but not while gaming. For gaming I use a g13. If you're looking for a keyboard for gaming, make sure it's one that registers multiple key presses at once.

well all i really need is a good quality back lit keyboard.

what screensaver is that?

it kinda looks like Flurry, but its spinning in circles?

and about the mouse, the main rason i loved my Habu, was becasue of the size.

i have big hands, when i hold any OEM or cheap mouse it only goes from the tip of my finger to the base of my finger.

i need a big ass mouse the habu was still a little small, my palm/ base of my wrist was still touching the table, but it was much more comfortable.

If you love a big mouse then the mx 518 might be good for you. Plus the 518's are sold at many retailers so you could probably find one locally to check out the fit.

The screen saver is Helios, part of a pack which I downloaded from http://www.reallyslick.com/index.html

ok ill look it up online and then check out the fit later, thanks.

do you know any good keyboards that are backlit?

i don't want any fancy shapes or any specifically gaming, ive used a "normal" keyboard for gaming for a long time.

i just want back lit so i don't have to have the whole light on to see the damn keys.


BTW are you on OSX?

helios is Linux or Mac only :(


wait...

i found the windows section, sorry.

Keyboards; it's usually between Razer or Logitech and how much you want to spend. I'm not too sure which one's would off white back lighting.
