I'm replacing my old setup ( g710+, broken g700s, broken g930, partially working (left only) z200s, and a dirty QCK and OG Belkin Razer Nostromo, old dell 1080p from 2010 with a 20ms response. )

Basically I need this

 

Mousepad ( Aluminium )

Mouse (FPS, Ergonomic (Right Handed))

KB ( FPS, Mechanical, Backlit )

Gamepad ( ergonomic for the left hand )

Budget: $400

also matching if possible

thanks in advance.

Basically I need this

 

Monitor (Ultrawide, WQHD, or 144 Hz. )

Mousepad ( Aluminium )

Mouse (FPS, Ergonomic (Right Handed))

KB ( FPS, Mechanical, Backlit )

Audio solution ( Speakers w/ Mic, headphones w/ mic, headset (good for streaming))

Gamepad ( ergonomic for the left hand )

Budget: $800.

 

thanks in advance.

Monitor: Ask the Displays subforum pls

Mousepad: Great one from Mionix http://mionix.net/surface/ensis-320/

Mouse: "Ergonomic" is a loaded term. Everybody has different hands and grips. How big are your hands (CM of middle finger tip to end of wrist where that mousing nub starts)

Keyboard: What kind of keyswitches do you want? This is wildly subjective. Check out the keyswitch thread in my sig for info on that.

Audio solution: Ask the audio subforum ;)

Gamepad: like xbox controller or Razer orbweaver?

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Keyboard: gotcha, get the Cooler Master Quickfire TK. Perfect size and still allows for numpad use with a function key.

Mouse: Well check out the G502 or Steelseries Rival.

Gamepad: Well the Orbweaver is kind of the best in its class so go for it. However what on earth are you using it for? I've never seen someone make actual use of one.

I use my nostromo frequently for FPS and Sim games ( CS GO and Elite Dangerous ) In the FPS games I switch between it and keyboard depending on mood (casual and fun or competitive for respective things ) and in Simulators it's way better than KB/M, and I just can't use HOTASs. Got my nostromo off a friend for $15 and works GREAT. I've liked it so much I want an upgrade.
