Posted October 29, 2018 So as the title says this is gonna be a 1700AUD pc build for one of my friends who wants to properly get into pc gaming.

What is a good keyboard, mouse and headset if you are looking at budget, then any mechanical with a backlit. otherwise its cherry/romer-G switches to go for. mouse i usually do logitech a look with their Gxxx series. headset you will have to ask someone else, i usually just recommend the hyper X cloud though there are definitivly better options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
