Hey guys did a quick search of the forum I didn't find anything similar. What kind of peripherals are you guys using (mice, keyboard, headset) for gaming?
Only recently started looking into getting new stuff for my computer. NCIX had a deal on Ducky keyboards, I love the feel of mechanical keyboards. Got the last Ducky with brown switches and orange LED!

Using a Filco majestouch2 cherry red mx keyboard and I love it. Not too loud, good response and simple and clean.
Also using a steelseries sensei raw. Much better than my old POS deathadder. The size is perfect as I like to claw grip and the feeling is nice.

im on my computer alot doing software dev so my gear is all ergonomic

this one uses MX browns. ( i have only tried browns, need to see what red and blue is like. but it is miles ahead of the microsoft ergonomic keyboard i used before)

Nice! the majestouch2 with the red casing and black keys looks SO sick. Personally not a fan of the cherry mx red, IMO out of all the cherry mx switches they feel the closest to the mushy membrane keys. Ideally I would love to have blue switches but they're too loud. Overall still happy with the brown switches.

That is definitely a different looking keyboard, it looks quite unconventional. Must have taken a while to get used to?

I don't really use anything specifically for gaming, except I guess the mouse... I had a Logitech G500 but I broke it and replaced it with an M400 or whatever it's called. Same thing but optical, and just as good IMO

Link to this? And is there one that's not 10-key-less? I've been looking at ergo mechanical keyboards. I use browns as well. Though I need the numpad for work, so that's a must. I'm currently using a Coolermaster CM Storm. Actually really good bang for buck, as I got it for $50 brand new (before they raised their prices). I would drop it for an ergo keyboard in a heartbeat.

took me about a 3-7 days to get used to it. it was frustrating, but now i can type as fast or faster than i did with a conventional layout
my wrists are loving it though no doubt

it has no dedicated 10keypad, but i if you look closely at the small numbers underneath 789, you can see there is the 10 key embedded. you just press the [1] key on top of the number 6 to activate it
this thing is not cheap though since i believe its a small ass company (and therefore cannot be mass produced...or they havnt found the right plant in China lol). but if you are constantly on your computer to make a living, its worthwhile

You could just get an extra numpad, probably like $15

Funny you should mention your printer I have the same one LOL
Overall, seems like a very strong Logitech and Razer presence on RS. Logitech is indeed very reliable I've been using this mouse that I can't the model number for because it's from 12+ years ago and it works perfectly fine.

Corsair k90 and m90. Best mouse and keyboard I've ever used. I would like to get a k70 though cause it looks better and is newer.
For headphones I'm using a beyerdynamic dt990 pro. Sound quality is simply spectacular and the lows are much deeper than the sennheiser pc350 I had. I'm just using a webcam mic and it's good enough :p

Looking for a new keyboard. Currently using a BlackWidow, but it just isn't the same anymore.. after spilling a whole cup of coffee into it. I cleaned each individual switch with alcohol but the feeling isn't there.
Anything similar to BlackWidow? I'm looking at 6gv2 atm.

blackwidow uses cherry blue switches so find a kb with the same switch type if you want a similar feel
though blue switches are good for typing, they are pretty shitty for gaming imo
