I dont know what mine would be.  It would probably be 2 systems in a Caselabs TX10-D  Because it could fit them.  One system being a NAS/Home server and the other being a super beast gaming rig with:

-  3 of the best GPU's at the time

-  the best E class platform CPU from Intel  

-  the largest capacity PCI SSD

-  ALL THE RAMS POSSIBLE!  To make a massive ramdisk 

-  Custom LC setup 

-  the best possible audio setup with studio monitors and a few 15" car subs. And the best headphone on the market.

-  Quad 4k monitors for maximum awesomeness and screen real estate (preferably with absolutely no bezel at all)

You would get a logitech g700 which is better then the naga is everything now right RIGHT.

[calarahil]

I personally favor the naga's number design I haven't tried logitechs mmo mouse I like how the razer naga epic is both wired and wireless. I also forgot the soundcard, and headphones, as well as a storage drive but all is check check and check. and I would portrait the 3 monitors :)

[Hyydrah]

Just 1 PB278Q really?

 

 

I dont know what mine would be.  It would probably be 2 systems in a Caselabs TX10-D  Because it could fit them.  One system being a NAS/Home server and the other being a super beast gaming rig with:

-  3 of the best GPU's at the time

-  the best E class platform CPU from Intel  

-  the largest capacity PCI SSD

-  ALL THE RAMS POSSIBLE!  To make a massive ramdisk 

-  Custom LC setup 

-  the best possible audio setup with studio monitors and a few 15" car subs. And the best headphone on the market.

-  Quad 4k monitors for maximum awesomeness and screen real estate (preferably with absolutely no bezel at all) 

THAT'S that I forgot! A PCI-E SSD. I'd only get one 1440p monitor though until a premium 2160p one comes out, hopefully with at least a 120Hz refresh rate too.

[Hyydrah]

You would get a logitech g700 which is better then the naga is everything now right RIGHT.

No way, the G700 sucks. It slips out of your hands easily (and mine don't even get sweaty), it isn't as sensitive, it isn't nearly as comfortable and it looks cheap.

[calarahil]

I personally don't want to have a 4k display yet. I really like the ASUS professional series of monitors I have the smaller 23 inch PB238Q. I'd either do that or get the 3D benq monitors in 3-4 way orientation.

[extremescouter]

My build would be absolutely everything you could fit into a caselabs SM-8 case. I think it's weird when people buy giant cases and don't put anything in them, so I would fill the Caselabs SM-8 to the brim with all of the latest tech and custom watercooling parts.

Crap my bad wrong mouse. I meant the one with the one with the keyboard on the side. Anyways the S series is a biggest improvement. I used it at the gadget show live place.

I love my g600, my friend has a naga and I had them side by side. The g600 was more comfortable for me with my larger hands and the number layout on the logitech is my favorite because of the shape of them where you can obviously feel which button you are hitting.

[ALXAndy]

I already own mine :)

 

Not being greedy has its advantages :)

[MJOLNITR VIPER]

the G600 is the one you are talking about.

II live my g600, my friend has a naga and I had them side by side. The g600 was more comfortable for me with my larger hands and the number layout on the logitech is my favorite because of the shape of them where you can obviously feel which button you are hitting.

I hear people saying that the naga is a bit more difficult to feel the buttons. Honestly I'd say I have mid sized hands I'm 6'2 I don't have huge hands but moderately sized hands. I've just trained myself with the naga. some can manage to hit some buttons some can hit them all. I can hit every button with my thumb and know exactly what button it is.

[calarahil]

the G600 is the one you are talking about.

Yes inded and I like the look and design of it. I just like the way the naga has the buttons more popped out rather then erconomic to your hand.

[Guerrero]

My dream PC is whatever I can afford  B)

[MJOLNITR VIPER]

I hear people saying that the naga is a bit more difficult to feel the buttons. Honestly I'd say I have mid sized hands I'm 6'2 I don't have huge hands but moderately sized hands. I've just trained myself with the naga. some can manage to hit some buttons some can hit them all. I can hit every button with my thumb and know exactly what button it is.

I dont like how the buttons on the naga are flat to easy to loose which one you are trying to hit.

 

 

 

Compared to the curved shape of the g600's buttons

[calarahil]

Yea that was what I was talking about some may like how the logitech comforms to the ergonomics of ones hand I'm used to the buttons on the naga and have never accidently pressed one I know where the buttons are and what I'm pressing.

[MJOLNITR VIPER]

@calarahil I think we might just be trying to justify our purchase as better then other mice of the same style.

[FireFox]

I dont like how the buttons on the naga are flat to easy to loose which one you are trying to hit.

 

 

 

Compared to the curved shape of the g600's buttons

 

Look's nice but way too many buttons on the side

[MJOLNITR VIPER]

only 12 on each.  that about 1/6th of the number of keys on my keyboard
