choosing a mouse

[mcdonh]

Ok I am aiming to spend about $60ish on a gaming mouse, not to many buttons or anything but some and good settings for macros and all, I was thinking of a razer deathadder 2013 would be good, anyone have any other suggestions or comments on the death adder, thanks in advance

Razor is great, get it.

Choosing mouse :
Ergonomics
Ball or optical
Wired or wireless
Buttons
Performance
Features/personal needs

very good ergonomics
don't you mean optical or laser no one uses ball especially for gaming
not to many buttons, enough for minor mmo playing but few enough for easy use in fps's
good performance, e.g fairly high dpi etc
personal needs kinda explained under buttons
wired

I recently got a Logitech G500s. It is a great mouse, fits in my hand perfectly. Razer is kind of like the Alienware of the Mice world in my opinion. Your paying for a label and a fancy color, that is all.

looks nice but it is a little more expensive than the death adder (which is bad when you have just spent $2600 on a gaming rig) and I prefer less buttons than more

If you like aesthetics and simple design, go with Razer. If you like functionality, go with Logitech. My personal preference is the Shogun Bros Ballista MK-1. It has a ton of programmable buttons and has a really good reputation (PC Gamer rated it a 93%, I believe their highest score for a mouse).
