Headset

Manufacturer:Steelseries

Product name: Siberia v2

Pros: Light weight, good audio quality, and a really good mic.

Cons: the "fake leather" can be a nasty on summers :P "pricy"

 

Mouse

Manufacturer:Logitech

Product name:g400

Pros: in my opinion the best gaming mouse there is, cheap

Cons: none

 

Mousepad

Manufacturer:Steelseries

Product name:QcK+

Pros:Great soft mousepad, ur mouse slides along nicely, and the "grippy" texture on the bottom keeps it in place

Cons: the "+" version is big as **** :D but theres always the QcK mini and the normal QcK

 

KEYBOARD

Manufacturer: Qpad

Product name:MK-85

Pros: The best mechanical keyboard on the market imo, no extra buttons(u still have all the functionality  keys by pressing fn), a 4 stage backlight in red or blue(depending on wich u choose) 2slot USB HUB and audio jacks for ur headset.

Cons: the price is a bit steep at 130 € :o

Headset and mousepad was same I was thinking. Somehow I don't trust on logitech (because mx518 didn't work well :D ) And that keyboard was nice add even I wasn't looking for but might buy it aswell :)

 

If someone could tell about Steelseries Sensei [RAW] good or not?

I dont like logitech myself(as a brand), but the g400 is an exeption, its really well made, and its imo. just the perfect size. i had a razer death adder before(and a MS sidewinder x5) but i would never get one of those over the g400, thats how much i love it :D

Mouse

Manufacturer: Gigaybte

Product name: M6980X

Pros: 2x cheaper but I can´t find any flaws, big mouse so fits my hand well, have had it for month so can´t complain on build quality also

Cons: can´t find any

 

Mousepad

Manufacturer: not joking but using for about half an year arbitrary clipboard

Product name: used to have Roccat Sota which got bubbles after 3 month and became unusable

Pros: cheap, can get with 2€, if looking well good surface and wide enough

Cons: mouse doesn´t slide as well and accuracy is not as good as on 30$ mousepads but if looking at price and quality then 30$ mousepads are waste of money in my eyes.

g500s mouse and QcK+ mousepad. All you need to know. Any keyboard will work. I prefer mechanical keyboards.

 

Any keyboard will not work. If the keyboard doesn't have anti-ghosting, while running, you will not be able to jump. You CAN sometimes bypass this on a standard keyboard, by removing one of the rubber domes on the left Shift key.

 

Gaming keyboards offer much better anti-ghosting layouts though. And I use MX Cherry Black switches myself.

Hey guys, don't go off topic so much =D Keyboard was not on primary topic ;)

 

But thanks for keyboard tips.

 

I only commented on what Geoff said :P

 

Mice.. WIRED. Wireless is great until you run out of batteries. If you have no batteries at home, guess who isn't playing anymore.

Rechargeable is better but same problem... Now you have to charge it, so guess who isn't playing anymore in the middle your best game ever.

 

Model? I like Logitech, good tech support, 3 year warranty on all gaming mice, I'm using a G500s now, I like it, and it fits my hand well. I also have a G9x, but don't use it much anymore.

 

Mouse pad. Go big or go home is my feeling. I used those super smooth pads and don't like them, difficult to control the mouse.

 

I'm using a SteelSeries QCK XL I believe. The biggest one they make, it allows you to play with lower sens, and not have to lift your mouse up all the time.

 

Headset: I don't use one. I have 5.1 surround sound so a headset would be a waste IMO. If I was to buy one? It'd be this... http://www.amazon.com/eDimensional-EDI-135-Edimensional-Audiofx-Headset/dp/B000TMI0GA

 

Force feedback audio means when the bass notes hit, when the explosions go off, you FEEL it and hear it. Just like a Playstation or XBox controller.

I listed to a set a while back and liked it, just didn't have a use for them :-/

Headset

Manufacturer: Razer

Product name: Razer Electra – Music & Gaming Headphones

Pros: This is definitely one of the most high quality sounding headphones I ever owned, and I had SteelSeries siberia headset, plantronic gamecom surround sound gaming headset and Logitech g330, all been blown away from Electra's heavy bass, good sound, and quality.
 

Cons: It's not a headset, but it does come with a mic, ONLY for your iphone, ipod. android phone etc, but what I did with this frustrating issue, is that I brought a mic for my laptop, (I can't say for desktops, maybe buy a stand alone mic?)  this mic I used for my laptop plugs into the microphone jack and it can be adjust, very sensitive with noise cancellation, the quality is actually great, since it's a mic and it's focused on voice only, unlike a headset.

But my microphone jack recently broke, so now I just use my internal laptop mic with the electra headset, not the best mic but both works good :)  but if I were to really recommend a headset, I would go with steelseries siberia, abit pricey but it's worth, good sound, good mic, you won't be disappointed

 

Mouse

Manufacturer: Razer

Product name:Razer Deathadder 2013

Pros: very, very accurate mouse, it has a 4g sensor with rubber grips, I personally like the grips, but some dislike them. it has 5 buttons and it feels great in my hand (pretty big hands) and the cord is braided, making short outs less likely to happen, (short outs meaning the mouse turns off and on, having a damaged wire)
 

Cons: The only con I have is that you need synapse to adjust DPI, Mouse Hz, etc.. so bad idea to take it to LANs or at a friends house, unless your friend don't mind a 1 minute download of synapse.

 

Mousepad

Manufacturer: Talent

Product name: Puretrak talent

Pros: can be a very big mouse pad or a small one, your choice of order, very smooth and worked well with all my mice so far. great mousepad

Cons: I can't find any to be honest.
