Friends, Fleeties, Countrymen……fortune favours the bold (or something like that).
My faithful Logitech companions are on their last legs, yes I admit they were inexpensive but they have served me well. With my birthday but a few weeks away and with Christmas looming on the horizon, the good lady has taken pity on my predicament and has issued instructions that I should ‘do it properly’ and avail myself of a proper gaming mouse and keyboard.
Picking myself off the floor, I promptly got down to some serious research. Several hours and many cups of tea later my eye was drawn to offerings from Roccat; the Kone XTD mouse and the soon to be released Ryos MK Pro keyboard.
Now, I know this is a mighty decision and one that I am obviously cautious of due to the cost involved, but I could think of no better place to seek wisdom and advice on this delicate matter. So any sage words that can be flung in my general direction will be gratefully received. I would dearly like to know what you all think of my choices and any alternatives you wish to recommend.

I’m probably far too cheap to offer good advice. I have had a g15, and thinking back on it don’t think it was worth it at all. They all eventually break or wear out and have to be replaced anyway. I got a Logitech mouse refurb I think with a rebate for pretty cheap and I like it. Very smooth and no issues. Keyboards, I generally try to go with the MS Natural with the split but I know a lot of people hate it – mostly just because they aren’t used to them.
Im laptop keyboard so I press two buttons instead of one lol but my mouse is a Logitech (cheap) but works really well.
But as for yourself think about if the keyboard can be programed for such things like key binds and in game chat but don’t forget you’ll have to use it for other things as well (Facebook, email etc.)
