This mouse has been my choice for gaming for a long time now, I've tried others but I kept going back to this G5 Series model.

Key Points:

A sensitivity increase and decrease button, with 3 different settings, slow, normal speed, and "Shit, too fast." The only time I use the fastest setting is when I played WoW I would use it for PvP and for Raiding as a tank, mage, and lock, for those spells that are instant casts but you need to see your target, you can jump and do a quick 180 with this speed setting.

Another additional thing that comes into play here is the additional button on the mouse located on the left side, you can attach a key stroke, to this, in WoW I'd put an instant cast spell such as, Arcane Barrage, or Fire Blast. If you use this button in conjunction with the fastest speed the mouse provides, you will gain an edge in combat once you begin to master it.

Finally, this is the most important specific of a gamer, it's the adjustable weights, you might not understand why you would put them in there, but it really does make a difference. What they do is help you balance out the mouse and if you put the mouse on a higher speed setting while having the heaviest weights balanced inside the mouse, it will move just a little slower, you will be able to tell the difference, well that is once you are used to it. Personally I put in the heaviest weights and begin to use the fastest setting, this helps quite a bit on FPS(First Person Shooters)

Also just a side note, This mouse comes with a standard rubber wire, it's much more durable, when you'd purchase it you'd understand. I do recommend a wired version. The wireless version dies far too often.

This mouse compared to your standard Dell/HP mice, is just an incredible upgrade.

Hardcore Gamer: 5/5 it will up your game, it may take a little while to get used to though.

Casual Person/Gamer: 3/5 It is still good for other purposes such as artists, for the slower speed, allowing them to be more careful. Though I would not say it's a must have.
