Ok I need a gaming mouse with more than my WMO but not too much and I don't want buttons I will accidentally press. I used my brothers mouse which is the lachechesis or something with 4000 DPI and I hate it. Any suggestions on mice I will think about and go to the store to feel those mice and see how I like them..

Here is me showing how i hold my mouse comfortably..

I watched the video and so far it looks good. Because its the same shape as mine it is the norm and could be easy to get use to for me. But whats it's DPI? im looking for 1600 or 1800 about twice mine..

i'm not sure about the kinzu, but it probably says on their site. the salmosa has 2 switches on the bottom of the mouse. you can set it to 800 or 1800dpi. i use 1800. the other switch is polling rate....can use 125, 500, or 1000hz..i use 500

another important thing is the mouse feet. the salmosa has teflon feet (my fav)...the kinzu has polyethelene or something feet.. but what u like will depend on the mouse surface u use...i like glass mouse surface

I'm recommending something else because I have it... woo

Razer Deathadder. At first I was doubtful because I was a claw gripper (like yourself) and the Deathadder is for palm grips, but the moment I put my hand onto the thing I always use the mouse palm gripped now (horizontally holding the mouse). I have had really hard times being comfortable with holding mouses, for example, I use the wrong fingers... this might not be your situation, but this mouse made me go back to index, middle finger, and palm grip. It works so well. The 50$ version has 1800 dpi, and the 75$ (or something around this price) has 3500 dpi. It has beautiful blue LED's and the ergnomic design for the right hand. Tons of features, for example I have my 4th button set up so that I can change my sensitivity on a scale of 1-20 by holding it and scrolling the mouse wheel. My 5th button is set to windows 5th button so I can just change it in the game that I'm playing to whatever I want there. So yeah, I highly recommend it. It seems to be the best mouse I could find for the money. I never thought I would actually buy a somewhat expensive gaming mouse, but once I did, my performance in games like CS:S and CoD4 increased tenfold. Go for it.
