Is the SteelSeries Kinzu v2 any good?

I was looking at buying a nice cheap mouse for FPS gaming. Would a Kinzu be suitable for me?

- Palm grip
- Roccat Taito
- Largeish hands
- Don't really care about extra buttons

I've also seen the g400 recommended, how does it compare to the Kinzu? Or should I get something else entirely?



Thanks

I think kinzu is more like a claw\finger gripping mouse. I can be wrong but i think its too small for palm gripping

Its horrible for low sensitivity users, I have one I loved the shape the weight, infact everything about the v2 pro but alas it had low ips and at high speed movements the sensor would spaz out and have a werid cursor lag and positive acceleration and it did very much bother me ingame.

I'm not entirely sure what grip I have now, I was playing Minecraft and I started playing with a palm grip, but after a while it turned into a fingertip grip without me noticing. I don't think I would really mind using a fingertip/claw grip.

That doesn't sound very good frown.gif I usually play with roughly medium sensitivity, so maybe I'll be fine.

You can try zowie am. I palm grip it nicely. g400 is also good for some people but i dont really like the shape of it. The buttons aren't at the same height and that screws my aim with pistols and awp in cs. I believe the majority of progamers use either symmetrical mice or mice that have low difference in height between right and left click like ms 3.0 or deathadder. Also u can look towards roccat savu, its the best mouse considering some guru's here smile.gif

Hmm. From what I can gather, I might be better off buying a g400, I don't really think it looks as good as the Steelseries, but it would probably suit my hand better.

Bought a

Logitech G400 - £16 (Open box, I think)
Sidewinder X4 - £25 (Open box again)

At least I hope that's what Amazon means by "Used - as new"
