This is pretty much based on preference. Do you prefer mech or membrane,aluminum construction or plastic,Macro keys or No macro keys the list goes on there is no one "Best Brand" they are all good brands can't really go wrong with any of them.

 

I use 

Keyboard: Corsair Vengeance K70 and K65 & Logitech G19s

Mouse: G700 and G700s

| Corsair 900D | i7-4770K | ASUS Maximus VI Formula | SLI ASUS Geforce GTX780 | EK & Alphacool WaterCooling | 


| Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 32GB | | Two Corsair Neutron GTX Series 240GB SSD | Corsair AX1200i |


| Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB | Two Seagate Barracuda 4TB  | Windows 8 Pro 64 Bit |http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/189392-corsair-900d-sli-watercooled-refresh-and-new-setup/#entry2550514

I try to somewhat stay away from "gaming" class stuff now, and look more towards build quality etc. Tons of companies use cheap parts in gaming products, then slap on a "gaming" logo and sell it for 3x as much.

Stuff:  i7 7700k @ (dat nibba succ) | ASRock Z170M OC Formula | G.Skill TridentZ 3600 c16 | EKWB 1080 @ 2100 mhz  |  Acer X34 Predator | R4 | EVGA 1000 P2 | 1080mm Radiator Custom Loop | HD800 + Audio-GD NFB-11 | 850 Evo 1TB | 840 Pro 256GB | 3TB WD Blue | 2TB Barracuda

I would never recommend a "whole" brand for gaming peripherals. Keyboard will be Logitech or Corsair. Mouse might be Logitech and Razer. Headset might be Logitech and Steelseries

Command Center:

Case: Corsair 900D; PSU: Corsair AX1200i; Mobo: ASUS Rampage IV Black Edition; CPU: i7-3970x; CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i; GPU: 2x ASUS DCII GTX780Ti OC; RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum 64GB (8x8) 2133MHz CL9; Speaker: Logitech Z2300; HDD 1: Samsung 840 EVO 500GB; HDD 2: 2x Samsung 540 EVO 500GB (Raid 0); HDD 3: 2x Seagate Barracuda 3TB (Raid 0); Monitor 1: LG 42" LED TV; Monitor 2: BenQ XL2420TE; Headphones 1: Denon AH-D7000; Headphones 2: Audio-Technica AD1000PRM; Headphones 3: Sennheiser Momentum Over-Ear; Headset: Steelseries Siberia Elite; Keyboard: Corsair Strafe RBG; Mouse: Steelseries Rival 300; Other: Macbook Pro 15 Retina (Mid-2014), PlayStation 4, Nexus 7 32GB (2014), iPhone 6 64GB, Samsung Galaxy S6 64GB

Every brand in the poll looks good except Razer.

 

Before you call me a Razer hater, I owned a Razer Lycosa and 3 Razer Imperators before. All 4 of them broke within 6 months maximum.

 

the lycosa what know to be not the greatest product especially when it came to the coating on the keys and the touch media keys. As for the Imperator i wouldnt touch it because of the dual sensor system it has, thats just asking for trouble.

I know a lot of people have had problems with their products, but I actually prefer Razer products. I have never had an issue with the Orochi, Naga or the Xbox controller they make. 

 

I hope ny Xbox controller your talking about their newer sabertooth because the Onza TE though bring some new things to the table was built truly shoddily especially when compared to their newer sabertooth.

 

 

 

Why would anyone prefer membrane :P

 

There are many reasons why this may be as everything is about personal preference. Can I ask why you prefer mechanical?

 

 

 

I try to somewhat stay away from "gaming" class stuff now, and look more towards build quality etc. Tons of companies use cheap parts in gaming products, then slap on a "gaming" logo and sell it for 3x as much.

 

I try to as well the one thing you cant seem to get away from though is mice as many of the features that I use regularly for thing other than gaming are usually only found on a gaming mouse. I think the only mouse that did was the MX1100 from logitech which replace the MX Revolution in their line but it quickly got replaced by the performance MX which in my eyes is dub par in may places.

 

 

 

im sure there are people out there that do and i prefer it for general typing and computing over a mech but for gaming mech is the way to go

 

May I ask why you say that? The reason i ask is because I feel the exact opposite.

i personally never like the G300 because there were no side buttons to keep it ambidextrous as i would take side buttons over top button any day.

Yes. OP states which is the best brand and obviously Razer is not one of them.

CoolerMaster CM 690 II Basic | Intel i7-2600 | CoolerMaster Hyper 212+ | 2x Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! Edition

Asus P8Z77-V LK | 2 x 4GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 1600MHz CL9 | SeaSonic M12ii 850W 80+ Bronze | Crucial M4 128GB

They have products currently that I really do like though and use daily but just like any company that isnt their whole line in the least.

Mad Catz makes gaming peripherals. There is the the S.T.R.I.K.E. series of keyboards, the R.A.T. and M.M.O.  series of gaming mice. So does ASUS.
