hey, i recently built a new i7 pc and am now looking at buying a new gaming drade keyboard and mouse to go with it.

I currently have a Saitek eclipse 2 and a logitech MX1000 have had these for 2 years and im starting to want more that they cannot deliver. After looking for a long time it seems razer would be my best bet as they have useful drivers well designed product in am aware of steel series but i dont like the look of their stuff (havent really looked into it though it could be better corrent me if im wrong.)

So really my questions are, of the razer mice which is best overall in every category and from experiance if possible ? (I know statistically the lachesis because of its dpi)

Which is the best keyboard, lycosa/mirrored or turantula ?

are there any other comparable products that are good and well known?

Im really only looking to spend a little over 100 on mouse and kayboard combined in reguard to sugesstions. thanks for your time and contributions

i was thinking about the death adder also.

the keyboard dosent seem to lack anything i dont really want a lcd screen like the logitech im mainly bothered about the respnose times and macro inclusion
 
i have a saitek 2 which is ok but dosent really seem to offer anything voer the standard keyboard except lights ill look at *** 3 but im not sure. as for the mouse it hink illt ake the death adder i play palm anyway so its going to be well fitted to me. ill probably go for the regular lycosa if not the saitek and i dont like the mirror's keys. ill look into tat mouse but i cant find many detailed reviews and i think they both cost more dont they? thanks for all the replies
 
as i said im happy to pay around 100 so should all be ok on the money side of things ill look for reviews i guess its just the whole razer hype thats got me looking at their products over all the others.
 
cant seem to find a good review for the saitek 3 and it looks like id use the driver support on the razer quite a bit so for the money i think the razer may be better im not sure on the death adder or Kone yet looking for reviews now im leaning toward death adder though

edit: after reading a very detailed Kone review ive decided to go with it as my mouse of choice it looks amazing for functionality and i cant find a bad word about it anywhere. still not sold on the board ill take a look tomorrow

ive seen the scroll wheel breaks but thats the only fault, im pretty lucky with my tech so im guessing ill be fine with it. keyboard i think i will go lycosa looking at the 1 ms response time instead of the standard 11 on any other full height keyboard but im sure the differences are minimal. thanks for the help
 
i have just one last question. with the lycosa for those who may know is it better to get mirrored or regular theres dosent seem to eb any comparisons anywhere and im not sure which i would prefer im thinking regular though as mirrored is more and there dosent seem to be anything special about them
 
yeah ive seen that dont artacosa just looks like a budget board im nto really that bothered just want to choose between normal and mirror now, difference is mirror dosent have rubbery keys but i cant see how thats worth paying more for.
 
yeah i was looking at the death adder until i saw the Kone it just looks so much better in ever way minus the scroll wheel fault but i guess it cant be that much of a problem
 
i went ahead and ordered the Roccat Kone and regular lycosa i didnt think mirrored was worth paying more for if anything it should be less. i have a samsung tv also so i get what you mean by the finer prints : / thanks for all the help anyone have any comments frome xperiance on the Kone or Regular lycosa ?
