I'm looking to buy a new keyboard and mouse, and I'm not sure what to get. I'm pretty sure I'll be getting the Corsair K70 MX Brown switches for the keyboard. But for the mouse I'm undecided. I was looking at the Steelseries Sensei, and then I saw the Corsair M65. I have a Razer Taipan right now and find it too narrow for my hands. I'm looking for something a little bigger to fit my hands and somewhere around $60. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated on a mouse or keyboard.

M65 is a really nice, solid and quality feeling mouse. I have seasonably large hands and it feels just about right for me. Not sure how it compares to the Taipan but I can tell you that it's sort of a flat mouse and 'stream lined' which feels really nice. I can definitely recommend it :)

I'd get the Steelseries Rival or the Logitech G400s. I have both, not sure which one i prefer atm. The G400s is a tad too small for me, but i really like its buttons and materials. The Rival is probably the perfect size for me (19cm hands from base to long finger). The buttons are great too, and the materials are nice, especially the rubber side grips. It also has two awesome customizable LEDs. LEDs don't add anything performance wise, but they look really nice ^_^.

I also have the Deathadder 2013. Awesome sensor and side buttons. The grip is a bit weird though, and the build quality is shit IMO. My right button started getting loose feeling after a few days (tried a store model that had a proper functioning right button to compare). My left click has started randomly double clicking too. I don't know if i can recommend this mouse, but many people like it. Just don't throw away your receipt like I did.

For keyboard I'd get the Logitech G710+. It also has brown switches, and the build quality is top notch.

P.S. The Steelseries Sensei and Corsair M65 are both laser mice. Optical mice are superior if you're playing FPS and precision games, as they offer zero acceleration and prediction, angle snapping etc.

The Corair K70 is a really good choice i would probably stick with it.

For the mice i can recommend the Zowie FK,Zowie Ec1 Evo.

Also heared that the Steelseries Rival is a big mouse so you might aswell try that.
