Guys????????

Could really do with suggestions please as currently I can not play any games as the keyboard and mouse keep cutting out.

Well, isn't it the motherboard cutting out, rather than keyboard and mouse?

If you want quiet, don't go with mechanical, as they are noisy. I'd settle for a Sidewinder X4. TTSport Challenger Pro should be all right as well.

For a mouse, depends on budget and type of mouse you like. Big or small. Then either the SteelSeries Sensei RAW, or the Mionix Naos. In the cheaper range, the Xornet (small), or the G400 (palm grip).

Nah not the mobo tried another keyboard and mouse and they are fine was the same problem I was having with my previous comp before building this one in my sig last week.

Would have to be a bigish mouse I have rather big hands hehe.

the Mionix is quite big, and good too. I have a QPad 5K which looks very similar. Very comfy. Good for palm grip and bear hands.

you realise if its a fault with the product, and you phone logitech up, they will replace the products with you to fix it?

I am well out of warranty with my keyboard and mouse had them years.

I will be getting the Logitech G600 MMO Gaming Mouse and I have narrowed my keyboard choices down to the following.

Qpad MK-50 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - UK Layout - Red Switches
Gigabyte Osmium Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

What do you think?

logitech are often very nice even iof the stuff is out of warranty

Either keyboard is a very good choice, both are highly recommended by people on this site, just get whichever one you like the look/price of more.

pretty please guys ordering first thing in the morning.

Osmium is a good keyboard. Stulid likes it, and he is pretty hard to please.

I'd also keep an eye on the Corsair K95. Likely to be more expensive.

I always go with back lighting, so can't say about the MK50. No complains on my MK85. They both share the same shell, but the USB and audio panel is blocked out on thje MK50.

I suggest the MX Brown switches or MX Black switches if you have a chance to choose.

Why black or brown switches m8?

Apem · 30 Jan 2013 at 09:49

Just ordered the following:

Qpad MK-50 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - UK Layout - Black Switches
Logitech G600 Gaming Mouse

cool.

Red Switches, I found a bit too light. Blacks have slightly more resistance.

Brown Switches have a nice feel.
