I've heard good things about the Logitech G9X, it was the mouse i was gonna pick up. Some people only buy Razers, but my guess its fanboyism. The quality of their mice seems low, and plasticky. I'm gonna pick up the Corsair M60 next time i head over to micro center. you should also consider a quality mouse-pad. Bottom line tho, it whatever suits you the most. The way you grip your mouse, hand size, comfort, type of games you'll play.

What VieraSniper said is true, it really matters on your personal preference for your grip, hand size, and comfort level.

I for one have the Cyborg R.A.T. 7 and it is pretty sick. The only downside for me is that it is pretty heavy compared to other mice, but when I took out the adjustable weights it wasn't too bad after that.

If you want a mouse to impress your friends though this definitely is the one haha. Everyone that sees my setup immediately looks at my mouse and goes "Is that a mouse?!?!", which I then reply, "No, it's a RAT" ;)

I've already had it mistaken for a bat-mobile several times.

We use the throwaway $3 USB mice around here, and while they generally die in a few months, one of them is still working after 4 years...

I've tried using a few of my gamer friends' mice (and a coupla RATs) but they didn't really feel right. The cheap mice aren't any better, but... they're actually not that bad compared to the old cheap "balled" mice. Now those were really crap.

Oh yeah. The hours spent cleaning the rollers and ball. Fun all round.

I'm partial to the Razer Imperator. Feels very comfortable to me.

I'm not fussed about the silly high DPI of gaming mice, but I do notice a difference between the 125hz of 'regular mice' vs the 500hz or even 1000hz polling rate.

But mice are a personal thing really.
