Hey everyone! I just wrapped up building my new PC and now I'm on the hunt for a keyboard and mouse. I play competitively in games like Marvel Rivals, Valorant, and Fortnite, but I also enjoy more casual games like Destiny 2, Arc Raiders, and Hogwarts Legacy. I'm flexible with budget and looking for recommendations that will perform well for both high-stakes gaming and more relaxed play. What do you guys suggest?

The top picks for competitive shooters right now are HE switch keyboards such as the Wooting 80HE or NuPhy Field75 HE. They have unique features that can give you a competitive edge, like adjustable trigger points. Just be careful, some settings can get you banned in certain games! As for mice, Razer and Logitech are classics, but there are other really solid options like the MCHOSE A7 Pro that beat pricier brands on performance.
Definitely check out the different types of mechanical keyboard switches and their sizes (like TKL, 75%, etc.). Ergonomics are crucial since everyone has a personal preference. It’s worth trying out some at a store to see what feels right before you buy.
I recently got a Logitech G815 keyboard and a G502 Lightspeed mouse, and they've been fantastic for my gaming needs. Seems like we have pretty similar gaming habits, so I think you'd enjoy them too!
Honestly, I would steer clear of Logitech if you want something worth your money. You'll often find better alternatives at a similar price point. Check out brands like Mchose or ATK for budget-friendly mice options.
I've been happy with my Corsair K70 Pro TKL Hall Effect version. Although it's sold out online now, it's been solid for both competitive and casual games! Consider trying it out if you find it available.
Yeah, I've heard good things about the K70. It's been hard to find in stock lately, though!
I've got the G915 and G502 X Plus combo as well, and it's been great for both competitive and chill gaming. My partner got me G560 Speakers for Christmas to go along with them, and it's a perfect setup!
