Peripherals: The Essentials

Let's start with the must-haves for any gamer's setup: peripherals. A keyboard, mouse, monitor, and quality headphones are essential. While personal preference plays a role, key features will help you make the right choice.

Gaming Mice

Choosing a gaming mouse is simplified by considering DPI and programmable buttons. FPS players benefit from lightweight, high-speed, high-sensitivity mice, while MMORPG fans appreciate more buttons. The Razer Naga Pro Wireless, with up to 20 buttons, is a prime example.

Keyboards

Similar to mice, comfort and responsiveness are key. Mechanical keyboards, offering superior responsiveness, are superior to membrane keyboards. Models with adjustable keypress force are a particularly exciting option. Another advantage: easily replaceable keys for personalized setups.

Headphones

Sound quality is paramount, especially for competitive shooters where precise audio cues are crucial (games like Escape from Tarkov). A good microphone is also essential for those without a separate mic.

Monitors

While Full HD remains popular, stepping up to 2K or 4K significantly enhances the gaming experience. Consider refresh rate (above 60Hz is ideal), balancing the monitor's capabilities with the PC's performance.

Stylish Cases & More

Stylish Cases
