Do you have a nice keyboard+mouse?

Your rig looks fine as it is.

 

[SamyBoy13]

I don't have keyboard as it's from my old all in one acer. My mouse is Logitech g700s

There we go then, mechanical keyboard.

 

[SamyBoy13]

Any recommendation ? I never used or tried mechanical one.

Good old corsair.

The REDs are very common and good for gaming.

I would try this out - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18624243

I had a go, it's only £2-£3 for the postage to pass on and gives you a good idea as to what switch you'd like
You could also go into a local PC shop or so and try some out with different switches

Thanks for suggestion but there are quiet few people waiting. Iwill have a trip to town at some point during a week.

Also, I just google the corsair one and there is RGB version. Is it any good? ( in terms of lightning, does the color mix eg if I were to create full white with red wasd?)

 

[stulid]

The RGB are very expensive.

There is a certain amount of seepage under the keycaps with these things.

The top keyboard was my K90. Its the way the corsairs are constructed and seem to have the keycaps floating above the base that does it.

Just out of interest the lights on non-rgb version is it vulnerable dying during to electric static discharges?

I have seen people report that there keys have died yes. From what I cant tell you.

Listen to a lot of music? A little DAC/amp and a nice set of cans have been the best investments I ever made.

 

[SamyBoy13]

I did purchased Beyerdynamic DT770 pro 80ohm but I returned them as I have issue with my ears getting warm after 1hour so they went back for refund. Although I may buys better speakers. Currently I have BOSE Companion 3 speakers 2.1 would there be anything to replace them for £300

I had a red keyboard which was great for gaming, but I just could not get on with it for everything else. If I bought another mechanical. it would probably be brown keys - but I prefer a chiclet keyboard for general use. (I'm using an Apple wired keyboard these days)

With those specs, i'd maybe go get a Samsung 850 EVO 500GB.
