In and out of gaming, the G600 felt comfortable in my palm, which isn't always a given with mice crammed with an unwieldy amount of buttons. In addition to creating custom profiles, the downloadable software also allows users to select different color combinations that can illuminate the thumb panel's twelve backlit buttons. These profiles can be modified with the G600's downloadable software. G7 and G8 buttons are located beneath the scroll wheel, and the latter allows gamers to cycle through three different profiles in the G600's built-in memory: Primary MMO, Alternative MMO, and Generic gaming. Back on top, the rubberized scroll wheel is fairly modest, and nowhere as pronounced as that of the Corsair Vengeance M60's hulking metallic wheel. Its three primary buttons are standard left- and right- click, with a 'G-shift' button in the middle that functionally doubles the number of commands that can be assigned to the twelve programmable buttons located in a thumb panel on the left side of the chassis. The G600 handily sidesteps this pitfall with a judiciously designed button arrangement. This was the case with the Razer Naga Hex, whose awkward hexagonal button placement marred what was an otherwise terrific mouse. Since MMO mice cram so many buttons onto a limited surface area, the button arrangment is paramount and can singlehandedly make the difference between a great and mediocre mouse.
