So my faithful Mx518 is skitzin out on me recently so it looks like I need a new mouse. Looking at some of these but don't want to spend a fortune cause I need a joystick to. Any thought from what I picked here below? Looking for the best bang for the buck to right. The A4tech looks good but it's also cheaper than the rest.

If you like your mx518 why not contact logitech and if it's still under warranty they'll send you a new one. My MX510 which was 2 months short of 3 years old was acting up so i contacted logitech and told them what was wrong .. within 7 days they sent me a new MX518 as a replacement.

With millions of years of evolution at our disposal, we only need to look at what our hands are doing when we're high. LCD on a mouse... :roll:

Yeah I can only get the Razer DeathAdder locally & I have to say it doesn't look that great to me & is only 1800dpi so.....

So it turned out not to be the mouse. The extra 4 USB plugins I had in the back of the comp. was the problem. The one I had the mouse plugged into went dead this morning so I took the mouse apart to check it. Everything looked ok so I plugged it back into a different USB plug & it lit right back up working good as ever. Saved me dollars that I didn't have to spend so I'm happy. Now to find a good Joystick instead again.

I am still using my MX510 that I bought in 2005.

Bloody awesome line of mice, the pads came off which was irritating back when I was hard into BF2.

I wouldn't mind getting another Logitech.
