Shopping for a mouse is very simple.
You find a mouse that suits your budget and personal preferences.
But why there are so many mice out there with Laser and Optical sensor? High Dpi? and use different Optical or Laser sensor such as PMW3310/3360/S9800?
And why there's gaming mouse anyway? Can we just buy a regular mouse and use it for everything?
For casual gaming you might be fine with it but if you're a serious gamer. Especially competitive player, Then you will need a gaming mouse.
Why? Because the sensor you found on general optical mouse won't be able to keep up with your hand movement and will fail you in the end.
Many professional FPS player can move their hand at around 2-3m/s and because of this they need a sensor that can keep up with their speed and these sensors are usually found in gaming mice.
That being said doesn't mean you won't need a gaming mouse if you are just a casual gamer. Having a great sensor and features such as tons of buttons for macros or MMO is nice to have.

Before we begin I must remind you that there's no such things as a perfect mouse. Because everyone has their own preferences.
You don't always have to buy the best mouse. It may have the best sensor, the best build quality and the best feature but what if it doesn't suit your hand or grip style? You'll end up feeling uncomfortable when you use it for a long periods of time.
That's why people tend to find a mouse that is perfect for their hand and grip style. They often sacrifice sensor performance and features but only as long as the sensor is good enough for their needs.
But again, everyone is different! Some people might prefer performance over comfort and vice versa.
So a good mouse is a mouse that will suit your budget, your hand and general preferences. You don't always have to buy the best mouse.

I am Etna and thank you for...uhhhh Reading my Guide i guess? Yep.
Power supply is pretty much user preference. There is a handy guide on the power supplies. I would say for your system i would go for a B or C tier if you want to go a little chepar. i would not recommend going any lower. Also, I would say to get about 500 to 600 watt power supply to count for upgrades down the line. But you can get more if you are thinking of getting a 30 series card. i would recommend at least 700 watts for 30 series cards.
Yeah the ASUS TUF VG27WQ is by far the best one. 1440p, 165hz, VA panel instead of a TN panel, and that 120% sGRB coverage is going to come in handy. That being said, see if you can find the VG27AQ, it's even better, since it comes with an IPS panel, which is better than VA.
The TUF VG27WQ is way better for his purposes. The Strix is a TN panel with horrible colour accuracy, but the TUF is a VA panel with 120% sRGB coverage. The difference between 165 and 244 is also very subtle, the advantage is <2ms, while between 60 and 144 it's nearly 10ms.
It's also 1440p vs 1080p, so while it'll be harder to drive, the higher resolution is going to be better for his design and editing work.
Asus ROG-Strix XG248Q - TN 244 hz ( like all ) sub 1 ms response time, nice panel.
ASUS TUF VG27WQ - is nice too.. TN sub 0.5 ms response time, nice panel.
i would choose one of these
