Looking for a new mouse

I need to find a new mouse, and soon. I love my 5-button mouse (Dynex - it was cheap and lasted longer than it probably should), but the RMB sometimes needs a bit more pressure than it should. This, of course, is a problem when I'm playing on a melee class (I right-click my next target to start the auto attack), as well as when I'm trying to get the scope or secondary use of a weapon in a FPS. Are there any reasonably priced mice with 5 (or more) buttons that aren't pieces of crap?

Ryoushi, how long ago did you buy it? No sense in buying a $50 mouse if it won't last a month. I know that the model I have been using only had the problem of some crappy glue that they used (grips on the sides would get loose and glue for the feet would pick up dust) before the RMB started acting up.
Word to the wise: Avoid the Dynex DX-WMSE...

I love the MS
SideWinder
, I got the
original version
as soon as it was available in 2007. I was a IntelliMouse Explorer fan before that, even though I would burn out the clickers, I would always replace it with another IntelliMouse. I tried a Logitech Laser mouse for a while, I didn't care for it or the drivers at all.
The SideWinder may be a little higher priced than you may be looking, but you use a mouse a ton, there is no reason to go cheap on something that will last longer than several computers, you should be comfortable with it and it should be rugged.

Thanks for the opinions, folks. I may have to consider the Diamondback if it is durable enough to warrant the cost. For those that wanted to see what I was replacing without poking around,
this
is the junker I currently use.

Just picked up
this mouse
and I must say I'm enjoying it thoroughly. The scroll wheel has a neat little feature that allows switching between click scrolling and free-spinning. It also has good response and feels comfortable too.

Logitech MX 620 Laser Mouse
Same one I think the one above me is talking about if his link worked. Easy switch between scrolling modes. Nice mouse, nice price.
