I've been using a razer abyssus 2014 for 2 years now. There's been no issues, but now recently my sensitivity got pushed down real hard in tf2, several reddit threads were made on this subject about 3 months ago, saying to uninstall the software. It kinda works, but doesn't feel quite right, since i just got this problem now i wanna ask if someone else has had/still has this issue with a razer mouse. Is there a way to control the dpi of my mouse without the software, in order to get my correct sens or should i just go buy something else to get away from razer?

There are usually dpi buttons, if you can remember your dpi you can set it that way. But getting a not razer mouse is preferred

i've used a deathadder before and i liked the mouse itself, but razer software is complete shit. i'd recommend getting a zowie or logitech mouse

No personal experience with the recent Razer stuff, but it used to be that their latest ones do not support onboard memory, that means that if you uninstall Synapse you are stuck with the default CPI values. And Synapse for older models causing input lag.

Consider the g403 also, and the g pro has some cheaper alternatives like the g 203

razer mice have so many issues with them, i had a deathadder for about 5 months and the software is just awful
i bought a logitech g pro and it's probably the best mouse i've ever used, logitech's software makes everything super easy as well.

If you're looking for a similar shape to the Abyssus, look at the Asus Sica. The Abyssus V2 is also an option but if you don't want to buy Razer mice I can completely understand. There just seem to be many better alternatives to Razer mice.

Funny enough I've almost never had issues with Razer synapse and I've been using Razer mice for a solid 4 years. However, my deathadder's mouse3 click hasn't worked for quite a long time now but I'm fairly certain it's well past its warranty, so I'll just stick it out with it until it eventually stops working. It's rather frustrating because I used to put my reload key for csgo and overwatch on mouse3 (yes I know it's incredibly weird but that's what I became used to) but eventually I just gave up and put it on one of my side buttons.

Thankfully zowie updated the ec1 and ec2 to not have such tight clicks and made the side buttons feel less fragile. How the old models were eventually caused me to return the ec1-a that I had bought and continue using my deathadder. Had it not been for those things I'd still be using the ec1-a to this day. The shape is just so superior to the deathadder's and oddly enough I didn't mind the scroll wheel. It was a bit loud for my liking when scrolling but I enjoyed it very much overall nonetheless. Might try out the HyperX pulsefire and see if that's worth using once my deathadder reaches the end of it's life cycle as well..

Apologies for the essay but I do enjoy talking about computer peripherals

I'm still running my original death adder software from 2010 works great because, back then, you could fire it up once, never run again and have your mouse settings kept in perpetuity lol. Why do companies actively make their products worse? Is mouse driver piracy a thing?
