Okay so, the R.A.T is more expensive, maybe both mouses perform the same, but I don't have a big budget and considering that logitech is a more reliable brand I think I should go with the G500 ^^

Very good choice my friend !
I gotta admit I once was in your situation, thinking the R.A.T. looks awesome, but after a few searches on the internet I found out it wasn't the sweet candy I thought it was. Madcatz is a big NO in my book, just like acer.

Good choice, I must say that between the two mouses I prefer the G500 because of the ergonomics and on board-memory.

yes, i cannot recommend a R.A.T because of the bad sensor. if you wanted to spend alittle more money then a steelseries xai or sensei would be pretty nice if you are not natively a palm grip
