Not an expensive mouse, neither keyboard. Still using Microsoft keyboard and mouse. Good enough for me though.

I like LEDs...  and buttons... Plus my cheapo Dell mouse just works perfectly fine so I don't care too much about having a super high dpi.

Well, keyboard obviously, just because I can't type on anything not mechanical.

Mechanical keyboard master race!

A good mouse don't need to be expensive. A Ducky Shine 3 does.

A good mouse with an optical sensor equivalent to my DA 2013s. Everytime.

For mice I just want something that looks and feels nice, is high quality (Reputable brand, braided cable) and has 1-2 side buttons. As for a keyboard I love having it backlit, mechanical keys and high quality.

Mouse.

 

Extra buttons and high precision are musts for gaming.

ds3 sux jajajajajaja

 

Even entry level MKBs are at the same price as high end mice or the normal price of "gaming" mice.

A cheap mouse just generally doesn't have high enough dpi for me and has an 'ewwww' factor to it.

I have my G9x at 5700 dpi and it's not enough...

30 dollar Abyssus + tenkeyless mechanical

If you are a gamer who plays a lot of shooters, a mouse is more important. For a typist and for work a keyboard would be a better investment. It all really depends on what you do with them.

 

There are a some cheaper ($30 to $40) mice that are good (CM Storm Spawn and Recon for example). For a keyboard, CM Storm again has some cheap but good mechanical keyboards at around $80 to $90 range (Quickfire series), although the prices seem to have gone up slightly lately. Looking at Amazon.com prices, the Spawn for $35 and Quickfire Rapid for $85 would be the absolute minimum I would go for a quality mouse and keyboard.

 

I'll add that for a mouse I'd consider $60+ expensive, and for a keyboard $150+.
