I like the Rival. The software for the Rival is much better than Razer Synapse except that Razer will keep warranty status there for you to see and then RMA  ;) .

I don't have the Rival I have the Sensei. But I prefer Steelseries over Razer. I like the way they feel in my hand better. And my DeathAdder broke after like 6 months. 

ive never owned a razer product myself, seen too mant bad reviews on their headsets, a relative has the razer krakens and theyre so not comfy and sound like shit.

 

im a noob on mice/keyboards, i have a steelseries apex raw keyboard and have only just started using the macros lel, i also have a steelseries mouse pad, im not a fanboy though xD got them cheaper because i worked at pcworld.

Rival, I've got it, no complaints. Chose it over the Deathadder and I'm glad I did

I also had some Siberia v2s xD but upgraded to g4me one.

The apex is a decent keyboard but I want a mechanical one.

Same here. I'm gonna get the Apex M800 when I can. 

I've thought about that keyboard too, but I love my Apex, I don't want to change now. 200USD is not easy to come by after spending over 2K on an upgrade build.
