Cooler Master - MM712 Gaming Mouse

In that price range(50-60) idk if there’s any brand that has the shape and size you want maybe cooler master mm710 wired but pulsar has x2h mini slightly shorter on length also front with a lil bigger hump or u can go with normal version which has 12cm(op1we is 11.8) length but same front height as your op1we but bigger hump noticeable compared to op1we and for your handsize I suggest sticking to mice that are smaller than 12cm in order for your finger to reach the end, nearly all the girls i know use that cooler master cuz it’s properly small 710 is wired and 712 is wireless for under 50

Hey all, Longtime lurker here—been quietly reading posts on this sub for years, but I randomly felt compelled to write this after a bit of a personal breakthrough in-game. Maybe it'll help someone else who's been stuck in the same cycle I was. I’ve been playing Counter-Strike since 2001 (yes, I’m old), and over the years I’ve used more mice than I can count—definitely a bit of a mouse whore. My hands are fairly large (19.5 x 11 cm), but for some reason, I’ve always gravitated toward smaller mice. Let’s rewind for a second… My earliest memories were with that classic white Logitech Optical Mouse—didn’t take gaming too seriously back then, but I remember it being on the smaller side, and I guess that stuck. When I started getting more serious, I switched to the Microsoft Intellimouse 3.0 and that was honestly my golden era. My aim felt crisp, clutch plays were regular, and I never thought much about the mouse—it just worked. After that, I fell back into the small mouse rabbit hole: SteelSeries Kinzu, Razer Diamondback, etc. I still held my own, but I noticed something: I sucked with the AWP. I just accepted it—"Guess I’m not an AWPer." Eventually landed on the EC2-A for a long stretch. Never quite regained that 1.6-era magic, but I chalked it up to aging, life, priorities shifting… all that stuff. I kept going with small mice anyway—FK2, MM710, MM720 (honestly loved that one for pure comfort), and most recently the MM712. From 2017 to now, I’ve been on and off with CS. I’ll grind for a few months, then disappear for a while. Recently jumped back in and found my MM712’s sensor acting up. I had a few backups lying around, including an old Glorious Model D wired—a mouse I never gave much time because it was big, and hey, I’m a “small mouse guy,” right? Wrong. I booted it up, played a few DMs, and… damn. My aim felt locked in. Tapping was on point. I had way more control than I ever did with smaller mice. That “floating” feeling from smaller shapes? Gone. Micro-adjustments that used to mess up my spray? Gone. This thing just plants itself in my hand like a brick, and suddenly I’m palm gripping again like it’s 2005. Even the AWP, which I’ve always struggled with, started clicking—literally. Shots are connecting more than ever. For years I told myself, “I’m just not an AWPer,” but maybe I just never had the right tool in my hand. It made me realize: I’ve been prioritizing what feels comfortable over what actually performs best for me. The EC2 probably should’ve been an EC1. Who knows, maybe I’d be lifting a trophy at Katowice by now /s. I’ve had my eye on the Vaxee E1, but it’s more in line with the EC2 size—and now I’m thinking I’ve been going too small for too long. Might be time to go full circle and pick up the EC1-DW instead. I’m finally starting to understand that bigger might just be better… at least for my hands and how I play. Has anyone else experienced this? TL;DR: Big-hand guy who loved small mice realized he was nerfing his own aim for years. Turns out comfort doesn’t always equal performance. RIP to all that lost ELO.

Me personally CM MM712

Go to your nearest Microcenter/best buy and try out mice, your hand size is different than anyone else's, my recommendations are the Coolermaster MM712 which was my main mouse until a week ago, where I switched to an Endgame Gear OP1 8K V2, which is an amazing mouse and is gaining a lot of traction recently, they might not suit you. I have smaller hands and I use a relaxed fingertip grip. You can use a size comparison website to fill in any gaps as far as mice you won't be able to physically try

Coolermaster mm712, on sale right now for $40

CM712, but the design of the clicks can be annoying for some.

Why buy that 40$ mouse from aliexpress when CM mm712 is the same price...

Had a rival 300 (and a 502 as well) and also liked the rival a lot. It was just too heavy. I switched to a cm mm 712 and I really enjoy it. It's way smaller than the Rival 300 tho. What's your hand size and your gripstyle?

MM712 20 € when at sale. unbeatable

It's more of a budget mouse but the cooler master mm712 30th anniversary is super good. The scroll wheel can be easy to accidently move but in almost every way I prefer it over my Logitech super light. It's as light, USBC, it's wireless with Bluetooth and 5.2 and it's similar in size. I would recommend it over a super light.
