Good Wireless Gaming Mouse - Nothing Fancy Plz!

I've just built a new computer, which included an Audigy 2 ZS. The soundcard was bundled with Rainbow Six Raven Shield and I've been playing it a lot lately. My old wireless mouse has delayed clicks now for some strange reason So now I need a good wireless mouse which has scroll, and one thumb button, affordable, comfortable, Durable? etc. Everything is failing on me

Something that can withstand constant clicks! Click Abuse!

Thanks for any suggestions.

If you want a rechargeable mouse, look towards the logitech mx range. Otherwise microsoft do some good budget wireless mice. They run on 2 AA though. Look through the reccommendations on Amazon, that's always useful.

I really like my MX700, not sure of the price though.

If you want quality, you have to pay for it.

mx700 has the lowest delay/lag time, as well as the most precise optics out there, plus, if you buy a regular mouse, you'll either spend a small fortune in batteries over the life of it, or shell out another $20 for rechargables and a charger! I have an mx700 on every computer I use on a regular basis, and won't change unless logitech comes up with something better I know it's pricey, but it IS quality, you can find them on sale or with rebates sometimes, for maybe $50...

I don't really care about batteries. Do you think it will withstand constant clicks?

Will what withstand constant clicks? If you're talking about the MX700, yes.

Look in the weekly deals in the trading post - someone has a deep rebate on the MX700 this week.
