What to Upgrade First (Peripherals)

[Spedbros]

Hi,

I just recently built my computer my Specs will be at the end. Anyway, currently i am a full time student in highschool and work part time at a shipping company after bills that leaves me with $85.00 every 2 weeks. So i cant just upgrade things it should be really what i need at that moment. Currently i am gaming using a Logitech K330 ( Cheap Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo.) I also am lacking of a headset so my question is what peripheral should I upgrade first?

Keyboard,Mouse, Headset, or 2nd Monitor ( I would eventually like to get one.)

 

CPU: Intel Core i5-6500

GPU Asus GTX 1060 6GBDDR4

Ram: 16GB

you should get a headset.

In my opinion: Mouse = Keyboard > Headset > Monitor 

 

Mouse/keyboard depend on what you are playing. If you need a good mouse like for FPS games, then the mouse first, or for like LOL or writing much as a student I would say keyboard. I upraded my keyboard first (from a similar one you have to a Logitech G710+ which is awesome) and then a new mouse (Logitech G502 which is kind of cheap as well but I love it.)

Go in a store and try some mice. Its really not something you can give good recommendations on because every hand is different and people are used to different things!

 

If you DON'T have a headset but you play a lot of games with friends, then of course buy a headset first, just look at what you'll use most of the time!

 

Side note: A friend of mine has a 10€ mouse and an old (but still easy clickable) 10€ keyboard and is good as hell in PC games like LOL and Battlefield so the price is neglectable, it just has to fit you!

If i were you i would definitely get a new headset, in my opinion its a huge game changer and makes games so much more realistic so if you dont mind cords i would buy a pair of HyperX Cloud II: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00SAYCXWG?ie=UTF8&tag=pric097-21&linkCode=xm2&camp=1634&creativeASIN=B00SAYCXWG

+7.1 surround sound

+high quality

+detachable mic

+comfortable

-7.1 wont work on consoles only with the 3.5 cord adapter

 

cheaper option logitech g430: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00CJ5FPUE?ie=UTF8&tag=pric097-21&linkCode=xm2&camp=1634&creativeASIN=B00CJ5FPUE&th=1 

still 7.1 surround sound

IMO, the G402 for $40 is more worth it, as it performs nearly identically to the G502, is lighter and $25 cheaper....
