Hey guys.

Need to invest in a new set up for my PC gaming and overall PC use.

So far I'm not really sure what to do when it comes to purchasing a new Keyboard and Mouse. I want a Mechanical Keyboard as they sound like they would be to my liking. The colour of switch I'm not really sure about, as I haven't tried any.

Originally I was looking at the 2013 Deathadder and Blackwidow by Razer, but then I see the Corsair M65 and K60.. I can't really decide. The combined budget would be ideally under £150.

Any recommendations or experiences with these products?
Thanks.

Thanks for the advice Stripes.

I think I would be pretty willing to mix and match brands as long as they go together (glow the same colour haha). I heard the CM Storm Sentinel II is an amazing mouse. I don't play MMO games, I mainly play steam stuff as well as League of Legends. I won't be needing tons of macros, if any at all. The 18 macro keys on the Corsair K90 scares me away because they'll just be unnecessary keys for me. I like the edge of my keyboard to be CTRL and ESC.

When it comes to switch types, brown sounds the most appealing. Am I right in thinking it would be somewhere between blue and red switches. I've heard that blue switches are very loud.

I'll look into CM Storm some more as well as Corsair and see if I can come to a decent conclusion.
 
But the extra stuff on the K95 like the macro keys is just unnecessary clutter for me.

And also, you dont have to press the key all the way down with reds to register the press, right?

And if I go for the K70, as I'm pretty tempted to, I may be able to afford a £50 mouse such as the Corsair M65..
