You don't really have to choose all your peripherals from one manufacturer. Look for ones that you think you'd like, and look up reviews and other users' ratings. Should give you a nice insight.

"And yet my mind is screaming, provoked in an icy sweat. It’s pleading and begging for a release, scraping the walls of a padded cell, pounding hopelessly at the floors that won’t even deliver the gift of pain."  - Why I Don't Dream Anymore

Which products would you choose? 250-300 euro range? 

Can you link me to the site you're purchasing from?

Btw, if you have friends with peripherals you can try out, do that first. It's best to buy what you know is good than to gamble on a possible disappointment.

For FPS? Zowie. Most other brands only have 1-2 mice that are optimal for FPS, if that. Zowie arguably has 11.

 

Keyboard brand for mainly FPS? Anyone that makes a smaller-than-TKL board with linear switches, I guess. Filco, KBT, Keycool, Deck and Noppoo would qualify...Not sure who else.

 

Headset? Nobody. For FPS the best thing would probably be some decent headphones with a good soundstage, so maybe something like Creative Aurvana Live, AD700 or DT880?

I'm fine with that. Google translate does most of the work :P

 

For the price, this will do. I would prefer the G710+ since it's what I have and it is wonderful but it is damn expensive on the site--150 euros.

I tried to find the G9x but I couldn't. This is still very good: 

http://www.alternate.nl/Logitech/Logitech+Gaming_Mouse_G500s/html/product/1075068/?tk=7&lk=4049

From what I hear, you can't go too wrong with this:

I agree with this. It's up to you if you want to get a separate headphone/mic combo.

Thank you very much for your time! This really helped me! Thank you so much!

Sticking to one brand isn't always a good idea. This is why diversity is so great.

Mice - Corsair, Logitech, CM, Steelseries, Roccat

Keyboards - Ducky, Filco, Corsair (K70, K95, K65 only), CM, Mionix, Logitech, Roccat

Headsets, I'd go for good quality headphones such as Grados SR80i (if you like rock/metal), Audio Technica M50s(if you listen to a wide variety of genres), Sennheisser (also good for many genres, bass heavy) then get a good quality microphone like a Blue Snowball.
