Replacing Keyboard and Mouse

[knighterrant81]

So I built my computer and splurged a little on peripherals with the idea that I would keep them around for a bit longer.  I had an old Logitech MX mouse for more than a decade and that thing still works just fine.  However, I really got burned on the new equipment.  My Logitech G413 keyboard and G403 mouse are kind of toast.  The keycaps on the G413 are breaking off inside the switches.  The G403 scroll wheel doesn't really work right - it scrolls the wrong direction every so often.  At  this point, I just want to get something that works.  I'm looking primarily for wired options for productivity and light gaming (I had more time for gaming two years ago and maybe I'll have some more time for gaming in the future).  I really like the USB passthrough on the G413 keyboard but that isn't a deal breaker.  I also really like the mechanical keyboard.  I'd say tops I have about $200 to spend.

 

Suggestions?

Budget? What type of mechanical key switch?

Budget is $200 for the whole setup.  I am a bit gun shy on the Romer-Gs.  They didn't turn out to be that sturdy.   I liked the feel though.  So maybe Cherry MX Brown?

I had a look around and if you still want to stick with Cherry maybe Corsair keyboards are the best for you. But if you don't mind companies like Kailh then you can go for Logitech keyboards like the G512, G513 or PRO X.

For mice if you want to stick with Logitech I would personally suggest the G502 (wired or wireless), G903, budget wireless will be the G305. If you want to switch away from Logitech I can keep looking. Sorry for the really late reply.
