Well, what is that you are after in a mouse? Features? Comfortability? Is your grip a palm/claw/mixed grip? The corsair vengeance has a slight slope as well as that extra support on the sides- it could be uncomfortable for some people, including you. In my opinion the Corsair M60 is the better mouse- aluminium body, braided cable, adjustbale thingies etc. etc. Check out the reviews on-line.

Depends on your needs. Big hands or no? Low-sense gaming or high-sense? Needing much extra macros? What is the right mouse is no easy question to answer. I got a Logitech G500 myself and it is an awesome mouse, but I do not have big hands for a male (less than 7 inches long and less than 4 inches wide) so it is easily too small for a lot of men (it fits in my hand nicely, without much spare room). By my knowledge, the mice you mentioned are about the same size as the G500.

Roccat Kova uses OMRON micro switches which are very durable. I would pick Kova solely on that because for gaming I don't need overkill of a sensor M60 has.

Thanks for the advices. I would like to know which one is durable, comfort to use for long gaming period and lastly the smoothness of the sensor.

I have a mate who uses the Corsair M60. He swears it is one of the best buys he has ever made. He does A LOT of gaming, mainly diablo 3 but he spends a lot of time on it and when we play he often tells me how good it is.

So I cant say from my own experience but that's all the advice I can offer.
