ROCCAT Burst Core
The ROCCAT Burst Core is an amazing mouse for FPS gaming. It's lightweight, has very low click latency, and sturdy-feeling build quality. It's also well-suited for all grip types, though if you have small hands, you may not be able to reach both side buttons with a claw or fingertip grip. Unfortunately, its rubber cable is only decently flexible and tends to curl up. This mouse also has a high lift-off distance, so if you frequently reposition by lifting your mouse, you may have to raise your mouse higher than usual to avoid the sensor from tracking.

The Roccat Burst Core doesn’t cost much money, but you’ll have to live with a bland design and imperfect performance.

Though minimal on frills, the Roccat Burst Core is a stand out when it comes to performance, ergonomics, and a premium design. And, it’s more affordable than most gaming mice in its class.
