Ive been looking to purchase a mechanical gaming keyboard (tenkeyless) and gaming mouse and feel overloaded with information.
I play sc2 pretty much exclusively so that will be the sole use of the keyboard and mouse.
Ive narrowed it down to two choices

Choice 1:
Razer deathadder elite
Razer blackwidow lite (for the quieter mechanical switch in uk layout)

Choice 2:
Logitech g403
Logitech pro (can only find it in us layout??)

Im finding the range on tenkeyless mechanical keyboards with the tactile switches in uk layout quite hard to find, a lot seem to be us layout with the tactile switches.
Im reluctant to purchase the louder switches as i feel this would annoy me and im wanting the tenkeyless just due to space and my set up on my desk.

Just wondered on other peoples thoughts as im swaying towards razer due to the uk layout
 
Can't help I'm afraid - just had to comment to say it took me a good 15 seconds to figure out what was wrong with the word mouce! :p
 
Personally Ducky do some really nice Tenkeyless boards. Coolermaster have some as well worth a look but i really would have a look at the Ducky ones.

In regards to the mouse i really would go to a PC store and try the mice out, Shape and comfort is most important.

If you want mechanical keyboard with least unnecessary noise, rubber o-rings are only partial solution.

Unlike rubber dome, spring of mechanical switches kicks switch up hard and there's hard "roof" in end of upward travel.
Hence unless you soften rising with finger there's going to sharp noise caused by rattling of keycap.
O-rings won't do anything to that noise, it needs to be damped in internal design of switch.
And there are very few mechanical switches even trying to avoid unnecessary noise.
 
I am very happy with these and would strongly suggest that you take look at them:

Mionix Zibal 60 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
Note: the keyboard is made in Sweden and of high quality for a good price (no longer sold on Overclockers) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mionix-Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard-Layout/dp/B00577W5H2

Cougar mouse (I have the 500M)
Note: As with the keyboard, this is of very high quality (no longer sold on Overclockers) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cougar-500-M-Gaming-Mouse-Black/dp/B011WGNJAI
There are other models of the Cougar mouse, which are newer and all of high quality.
