    Or realize that unless they are going dual 3090s or something stupid they won't need to upgrade even with a good 650 watt?

    you could go with something like this

    you might also want to consider waiting for zen 3.

    ryzen chips do like ram speed to an extent, considering you have a 2400 MHz kit, this would be a pretty good upgrade.
     
    no exact date on when it would be released yet but they are rumored to be released near the end of this year.

    here is what you could do, or you could wait for zen 3 since the 3080 isnt actually available yet.
     
    or, if you are mainly gaming then you could go with a 10600k and z490 combo.

    the sensor is the only thing that it has going for, inferior build quality, stiff cable, heavier weight, not to mention logitech's software is much better than redragon's. if the reasons mentioned dont concern you then you dont need to get the logitech. all the things i mentioned above are recommendations.
    you did mean the sensor right?
    at $100ish budget? the ducky one 2 and glorious gmmk to name some 
    then does the premium makes sense in your purchase? if it doesnt, you dont need the G640
    things around its pricepoint like the MH751, cloud 2s are better, though i dont know what they are priced at in your region. also as previously mentioned i cant really comment much on audio.
  10. Agree
    Oswin got a reaction from PCGuy_5960 in Help me to choose good peripherals   
    i would lean more to the G403, if budget isn't really of concern, without knowing your exact hand measurements its just a guess.
    in short: no, not really
     
  11. Agree
    Oswin got a reaction from PCGuy_5960 in Help me to choose good peripherals   
    the G203 doesnt use the pmw 3366, also the 3366 is logitechs variant of the 3360, they both still run at a max 12000 fps, though this spec isnt that important anyway.
