I of course mean your keyboard, mouse, and mousepad. And anything else you use to slaughter them noobies in FPS games or whatever it is you guys like to play. PC gaming please.

I have a Saitek Eclipse, Razer Deathadder, and a SteelSeries QcK.

The keyboard is okay. It feels like to type on it, but there aren't any extra bells or whistles. I'd at least like a media control pad, but whatever man. The W key is going out kinda; whenever I hold it, sometimes, 3/10, I'll stop dead in my tracks. :/

The mouse is godlike. Best mouse I've ever used.

I am looking to replace my keyboard though. Probably with a Razer Arctosa or a Alienware TactX. (I despise Alienware, but I've read good things about the keyboard.)

Razer Carcharias for me. :D

Screw the Alienware TactX. xD I'll go for either a Lycosa or Arctosa. Razer ftw. :3

The Lycosa (and by inheritance, the Arctosa) is not great. It does the job, but I would not replace it if it died. I actually have both a Lycosa and a Saitek Eclipse II. I only use the Lycosa because it has the headphone jacks in the back and it's flatter. When I used to type essays for school, I would plug in the Eclipse. If I were to buy a new keyboard, it would be either a mechanical keyboard or a Enermax Aurora.

I suggest you get a better mousepad. For the Deathadder, your best choice would be a Goliathus Control.

I'll update or post with a picture and breakdown of my setup soon.

All I got is a Logitech S510 keyboard/mouse combo, and the mousepad is just one that I picked up at the Apple Company Store in Cupertino (round with a gray Apple logo in the center). It's not great, but it does the job for me. Besides, the mouse is comfy.

I don't need anything more fancy than a Logitech MX518 and a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 to 'pwn' 'noobs'
I find the 125Hz polling on that mouse a little too slow. You can feel the cursor dragging around the screen.

Main Mouse: Logitech MX 518 Optical Gaming Mouse
Main Keyboard: Logitech Wireless Keyboard K520
Secondary Mouse: Logitech Wireless Mouse M310


I'm using the M310 as a secondary mouse because it's got this awesome range that lets me use it from the kitchen if I feel like it! :D Or my bed when I'm feeling like a late night movie.
My Main Keyboard / Secondary Mouse is a set "Logitech Wireless Combo MK520". Hoping to pick up my new Logitech Gaming Keyboard G110 tonight. x3

Oh I am a logitech fanboy. <3

@beauty- I would be if I wasn't in love with Razer. I do envy their keyboards. If there was a G19 with no macros, I'd be in HEAVEN. (I don't really use programmable macros.)

Ideally, I'd like a Logitech G5 or MX 500 or 512 mouse, a Majestouch Tactile Touch keyboard (uses Cherry MX Browns I think), and no mousepad. I have an MX512 (don't like the gloss, but other than that it's great), and I can't afford that kind of keyboard. Considering getting a Unicomp keyboard instead but those are LOUD.

I'm pretty sure the Majestouch uses Browns, yeah. That's probably what I would get, given the choice.

The MX500s are really old. You'd never be able to get one, and once you use a 1000Hz mouse in something like TF2, it's hard to go back. If you can manage the funds, the G500 is a similar shape, with a textured finish and much better specs.

That may have been one of the ones I wanted. I kind of just listed off memory, I don't really pay much attention since I already have an MX512, but the G500 seems like another I'd like.

they are pretty good. I use them for general use, when I start to use the computer for PC gaming, I will probably upgrade but good for now. Everything works in perfect condition, yay =].

Weren't you the one that linked me to the sandpaper mod?

Have a look at overclocking the refresh rate. It does make a difference.

Here's a picture of my Copperhead and then the whole setup. :D
