Hi guys, what do you think of the K50 & M40 as a duo for under £100,  They have replaced my old Razer gear to go with my new PC red theme. Anyone had any bad experiences with either?

I think you should get some new Razer stuff :)

I am currently rocking a combo between Razer Blackwidow Ultimate and Razer Ouroboros and they are pretty epic :)

I got the K50 for £55 and the M40 for £45,  I know the mb isn't mechanical, but I don't like the feel of them to be honest.  Havent tested out them yet, waiting for delivery. But if ... for the price it will last a few years I'm good. Has anyone had any experience with build quality of Corsair Keyboards and Mice? Ive only dealt with their cooling solutions personally.

The M40 is a great mouse. Has the same design as M65 which a lot of people like. M40 also uses optical Avago ADNS-3090 sensor, which is the best if you are serious about gaming. M40 is my current 'reliable and awesome' go-to mouse (before it was the MX518).

 

Can't say much about the keyboard though. I would recommend getting something mechanical like CM Storm Quickfire Rapid/TK/Stealth or saving a bit more for the K70.

I love the m 40 over all but the wheel has issues...this is a well known issue and i have returned 3 to try to get one with out the issue and it looks like all of them have it. its not horrible but noticeable. Some ppl may not even notice it but if you have used an m60 or 65 then you will notice the difference. YouTube it.
