I am currently using a real heinous piece of poo poo mouse that cost less than $20 and I bought because it was cheap enough to order from newegg with store credit I got from an item going on sale right after I ordered it. I've never loved it and the thumb buttons and wheel button have all been dead for years.

I say this to be clear that my needs are pretty modest and I am just looking for something decent for (mainly FPS)gaming that hopefully won't crumble like cardboard within a year or two. I am also still a cheapskate and I'm looking around in the sub $40 price range. I have no clue what the good and bad brands are or really anything at all about "gamer mice". A friend recommended I think a Logitech G203 and it seems okay. There seem to be a lot of budget mice in this range with high ratings on amazon but I cannot tell them apart.

If I like the general feel of the Logitech G203 but I don't want to be a part of the double-click club anymore, which Razer mouse am I looking at for a close analogue between the Deathadder v2 and the Viper mini? Or any similar recommendations with optical/more reliable switches.

Deathadder mini v2 is on sale for $15 on Amazon right now (all time low according to ccc). I picked one up for a backup.

I had this on my wishlist for a while to keep an eye on it. My Logitech G203 started double-clicking after like 6 months and the scroll wheel is getting pretty fucky now too, so I jumped on this with a giftcard.

I'll be pleased to have anything else at this point, but these seem like they have a similar size/feel? I'd be happy with the G203 if it wasn't disintegrating.
