this is my pc build happy with all the part except keyboard and mouse never used this brand before, is there a better option for around the same price ? Need them to be rgb dont need customised options just rgb backlit

Get the mk.2 version of strafe instead of the old one.

Or if u like a better build, get the k70 mk.2.

 

For mice, i'd recommend Logitech G502 or Corsair Glaive RGB or Steelseries Rival 600.

Have you ever used/tried mechanical switches before?

Very light linear switches differ quite a lot from membrane/rubber dome switch in their feel/operation.

Also most mechanical swtiches are lot noisier.

I use a mechanical keyboard myself this build is for my daughter so shes more interested in how it looks over performance

Please, for the sake of yourself, her and everyone else, teach her not to be like this.

That's not gone well, lmao.

 

Corsair is renowned for their RGB stuff.  Like the others have mentioned, they have just introduced an updated model to the keyboard that you've chosen.  I'm not sure if it offers anything other than some aesthetic differences.  The mouse should be fine.  Have you let her tried the different key switches to see which one she likes?  No point in spending that much if there is a different switch she would prefer.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tesoro-Durandal-eSport-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B00BR6SPFS thats the keyboard ive used for the past 3-4 years she likes mine but doesn’t come in rgb. I just ordered her the Corsair strafe last night its her first pc and shes not a serious gamer or anything so as long as it looks pretty to her she will be happy. Just need to try and build the pc when it comes ? that should be a challenge
