Rocking a G500 after using a Deathadder and then a G9 for a while. It does feel like a step up from the G9 as far as ergonomics, even if you fancy the 'claw' style. The dpi buttons and hyperscroll switch are in MUCH better spots and the the Forward thumb button isn't set quite so far towards the front of the mouse, making it easier to press. The new button between Forward and Back hasn't been hit by accident at all yet. The only con so far is accidentally hitting the side scroll directions on occasion, which I never did on the G9 I really liked the Deathadder but the software made it annoying to set macros and it didn't have per-application profile support (this was a year or so ago, the don't know if it's been added since). That was kind of a deal killer for me even though it felt and performed great.

DrCuntmuffins posted:What does SA think about the Roccat Kova+? I got one of them over the weekend and it's going back Monday morning. There's a lot to like about it like the light weight, robust drivers, and what is probably the best scroll wheel on any mouse I've laid hands on, but the side buttons really kill it. The placement is a bit awkward but on top of that they are pretty stiff. Having stiff side buttons on a very light mouse will cause mispresses of M1/M2 and even move your cursor around quite a bit. This is a huge shame because the Easyshift feature is really cool but nigh unusable when mapped to one of said side buttons. I'm going back to the Corsair M60 which has problems of its own but nothing I would consider nearly as bad as the Kova+'s side buttons issue. That said, if anyone knows if Easyshift (holding down one mouse button to give all the others an alternate function) could be replicated in AutoHotKey somehow, I've love to hear about it.
