Question Make me a recommendation!

Hey friends!

I've been a total die-hard Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 guy for as long as I can remember.

My current model at home has started to wear out, especially the notchy middle wheel.

Can you make a recommendation? I've tried a Corsair M65 which everyone raves about and I really didn't care for it. It felt like the top knuckle of my pinky finger was always inverted very heavily to hold the mouse in place (some of my fingers bend back very easily) which led to fatigue.

I'll probably just buy another one, but curious what the world thinks

Cost is basically no object. I'm not a super twitch gamer (tho I do game). I've generally been very happy with the IE3.0 but I'm open to new experiences. I want something with exceptional build quality.

Steelseries Rival 310.

Welp, I went and got one of those today and it has the same "inverted pinky" feel as the Corsair. It's not that bad, but I really prefer the IME 3.0.

Any other suggestions?

I've never really heard of an inverted pinkie problem. Do you think a more narrow front would help or a mouse where your pinkie never touches? I kind of have the opposite problem and get pinkie cramp. Wide mice with pinkie rest help me. I use one of these cheap Chinese mice at work. The buttons are crappy but it's very comfortable for me. You can see how there is a groove for every finger. The same mouse sells under different brand names and is usually < $15.

At home I use a Naos 7000. Neither are very good if you lift you mouse a lot.

I've adapted, and the Steelseries 310 is great! I ended up getting one for work too.
