RIP G5 :(

[Spit-wad]

The best purchase I have ever made.

It took you five years for your right click button to stop working. You will be missed.



Anyone have the G500? Does it live up to the G5/M518? I will most certainly be sticking with a Logitech mouse.

[Pczone]

I have the same exact mouse and i've had it for 5 years. Its just now starting to fuck up.

[Spit-wad]

I'm ok with buying a new mouse every five years. This mouse has been perfect up until now, and I certainly gave that right click button enough abuse. It deserves an honorable burial.

[Ganked]

Yeah I've had the 518 for the longest time now, wish I bought like 5 so I can have it the rest of my life

[LiChE]

mx518 is still king, my brother has the g500 and it doesn't feel quite as right as my 518

I think I used to have that exact mouse too for like 3-4 years, that's the one with the weights right? I loved that thing, but I switched to the Razer Naga and it's so much fucking better, at least for me. I didn't even mean to the get one with the buttons, but it's a damn good mouse. I don't even use a mouse pad.

G400 > G500

[Tryout-]

I gave away my mx518 to my best friend when i moved out of my parents place since i didnt own a computer. Worst decision ever.

[NengLM]

why dont u guys just fix the mice yourself, its not hard >.>
i fixed my naga various time and its pretty ez

[Loliser]

I had that for the longest time as well, the cable wore out and died, then I got a mx518.

Logitech best mice

[Spit-wad]

Pretty sure new mx518s retail for like 100 now since discontinued.

[Loliser]

oh god I didnt know they were discontinued, I hope this mouse never dies

razor deathadder
steelseries xai, sensei, or kinzu
logitech mx518 is fine too, but honestly i like my deathadder better

[carebear33]

that's cool

i just want a mouse that i don't have to replace on a yearly basis

i've gotten steelseries to give me two new mice because they kept registering every left click twice

of course my third is doing it too

"pro gaming gear" my ass, more like cheap garbage

logitech seems cool tho nice warranties

I use that one, I used to have an mx518 but after it broke after a few years I bought that one. I can't go back to anything else now, the support for my littlefinger and ringfinger is fucking awesome.

But mx518 sure is hard to beat.

Good luck in your search

Never used a "gaming" mouse or keyboard. My current mouse gives me shit tons of problems with the right click sometimes but I bought it for 3 bucks and its been 3 years.

You can just bind the right click to some keyboard button if you really don't want to use (or can't buy) a different mouse. Takes getting used to though.
