MX518 is the best quality mouse for the money IMHO. It's got the same resolution as G5/7, on the fly DPI, and an extra side mouse button. Plus it's extremely comfortable (although the G5/7 is too). I've had 12 hours gaming sessions with it without a hand cramp or any discomfort. I would get the G5/7 if they had the extra side button, that's pretty much the only reason I prefer the MX518.
According to most people here, the G5s are starting to be made with a 2nd thumb button, sort of makes me wish I waited but then I would still be using this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 6826104036T4rd wrote:

Plus, who would've known other than the developers that a 2nd thumb button would be implemented anyway?
Edit: I guess this would also be the reason for the 10$ price jump that I noticed like a week ago.
