    Hard to tell, but when looking for a gaming mouse, you shouldn't be looking at features because they are designed to fit a specific person's hand/grip. I bought a Razer Taipan last year when I decided to buy a new mouse. I hated it. It was so small and uncomfortable for me to hold and I returned it the very next day.

    What I strongly recommend doing is going out to a store where you can try them out yourself. I bought the same exact mouse, but only because it fit my large hands and claw grip very well. When you look at one, try to get one that feels comfortable in your hand and not the one you think can move around the fastest. Most gaming mice are very similar in function, but are all made with a certain person's hand and grip style in mind. As long as it gets 1000hz, high malfunction speed, and allows you to adjust your DPI then it's fine. Look for one that you think you could use for hours and hours without any sort of discomfort. Also change your windows pointer speed to 6, use raw input, and disable hardware acceleration.

    I also recommend getting a new mousepad and monitor if you don't have a good one already. If you don't, then there is little to no point in even buying a mouse like this because it wont make much of a difference. If you don't want to spend a lot of money on a mouse pad then buy a Razed Goliathus (Speed or Control) or Steelseries QCK, I own about five of them and personally prefer the Goliathus Speed Alpha. Buy a mouse pad AFTER you pick your mouse so that you can pick the one that works best. Believe it or not, your mouse pad is almost as important as your mouse itself. Make sure you don't end up buying one that's too small.

    If you decide to get a good monitor, make sure to look at its response time (measured in ms) and refresh rate (measured in hz). Make sure it gets at least 120hz and a response time under 2ms. 5ms is unacceptable, and they simply don't compare. If you need to check, then its not good enough. Monitors like this cost at least $250 unless you find a good deal. You could argue that a difference of 3ms isn't game-changing, but it is. Keep this in mind: everything is delayed. Every key you press, every mouse movement you take, player models, server lag, etc. They all add up, and buying a good monitor will help you change that. I could keep going on about this, but I'm going to tell you its worth it.

    In short, pick a mouse that feels comfortable to you, without worrying about how fast you can move with it. After that, buy a good mouse pad and monitor, and it will make a world of difference. If anybody tells you different, they usually fit in one of two groups. (1) they aren't very good at PC gaming, or (2) they have never actually used the kind of equipment that I'm speaking of, and are probably just assuming and you will notice a difference. After all, what's the point of getting 300 fps if your monitor is only capable of displaying 60 per second?

    Tl;Dr Try out a mice that you think you could hold comfortably for a long time with your current grip (plan, claw, or fingertip), get a good mouse pad and monitor as well. Don't listen to people that will tell you different,because they most likely have no idea what they're talking about. Don't change your mouse settings to anything stupid either, like 3000 DPI or a ridiculously high sensitivity.

    Btw, it's not a waste of money if you actually like PC gaming.

    I guess I did go on about it into more detail than necessary, but I assume he wanted to play competitive and making it shorter would've taken more effort than I wanted to. I wrote it all myself btw.

    I've never actually tried that one out, the closest that I've ever came to using that one was the g400 (a lot of people i knew swore by it) for a few weeks, and i couldnt get used to it at all.
