Our Verdict

Fnatic FLICK 2

MSI CLUTCH GM30

The Fnatic FLICK 2 and the MSI CLUTCH GM30 are good wired gaming mice, but the Fnatic has slightly better performance overall. The Fnatic has a somewhat more flexible cable, a wider CPI range, a more consistent sensor, and a lower lift-off distance. It also has customization software compatible with Windows and macOS, while the MSI has software compatible with Windows only. On the other hand, the MSI feels sturdier and has a somewhat lower click latency. Both mice are well-suited for all grip types and most hand sizes.
