Like the title says, I am looking for suggestions on a new mouse/keyboard/headset, currently I have a Asus Gaming Keyboard and a Asus Mouse with a 30-40$ Walmart logitech headset :/. I was looking into getting these |http://www.walmart.com/ip/Razer-BlackWidow-Ultimate-2013-Keyboard/21800557| for my keyboard, This for my mouse |http://www.walmart.com/ip/Razer-Naga-Epic/15730094| and one of these 2 for my headset |http://www.walmart.com/ip/Razer-Tiamat-Elite-7.1-Surround-Sound-Analog-Gaming-Headset-Universal/20975052| |http://www.walmart.com/ip/Turtle-Beach-Ear-Force-DXL1-Headset/27030448|
-
Anything Turtle Beach for the headset is great imo.
can't say much on the others, I don't buy into the whole "gaming" peripherals all that much.

(I speak from experience)
1. Razer Blackwidows are amazing, however, if you talk to people a lot through the mic (On skype, steam voice chat) then do not get it. The cherry mx blues are very very loud, and my friend finds them very annoying.
2. You have to clean it or else it gets dusty
Other then that its really good and looks cool <3

Kwuartz I have a Asus Gaming Keyboard and Asus Gaming Mouse that came with my desktop, they are roughly 60$ a piece xD but I am looking more into expensive keyboard/headset/mic money is not a problem for me anymore

QUICK ONE MORE HEADSHOT FOR THIS ACHIEVEMENT.

Depends what you are looking for honestly.
Razer Mamba is an amazing mouse. I've only had it for a while though. But so far I've loved it.
Logitech mice are good but they only last about 3 years generally from my experience.
The razer mouse you have looks like mine with way to many buttons. Theirs such a thing as to much. You have a keyboard for that.
Just my opinion.
I'd get a G19 keyboard because I like fancy lights and shit.
As for headsets, I've never had a good head set. So you'll have to fill me in with what ever you get in that aspect.

Don't buy "gaming" headsets. They're shit value for the money and usually pretty shoddily built. I'd suggest getting a pair of headphones and a clip on mic. The Audio-Technica AD-700(these just recently went out of production so they might be hard to find) is a great pair of headphones, and this: http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-ME-52W-Noise-Canceling-Microphone/dp/B000MYPPPE/ is a great mic.
Alternatively for headphones, you can get the CAL(http://www.amazon.com/Creative-EF0060-Aurvana-Live-Headphones/dp/B000ZJZ7OA/), or if you don't mind spending a bit more, just about anything from Beyerdynamic is really good for playing games. Or if neither of those are up your alley, Sennheiser 558s and 598s are also really nice.
As for keyboard, anything mechanical is pretty nice. I have a Razer Black Widow Ultimate and I'm a fan.

Ya, I was looking at the mouse I have cause I couldn't find the other that has less buttons. I was looking at the blackwidow ultimate for keyboard but my main thing past this decision is on my headset, it has to be a headset not heaphones + mic and it needs to be USB :D
-
...But why?
Also that Razer headset you linked in your first post isn't USB.

Why not just get a sound card and get real connections and not some shitty usb headset thats gonna lower your response time from your mouse/keyboard.

Personally I love Razer and turtle beach products. I use the Razer nostromo for my keypad and i have theturtle beach tangos I believe. As far as my mouse goes I use a logitect G400 series not bad for the price I paid for it

IF even that.
Having a usb head set and a usb keyboard on your pc shouldn't do anything unless your motherboard is complete shit.
But I agree with getting a non usb head set.

EVERY MILLISECOND COUNTS WHEN BULLETS ARE FLYING OK
A BULLET CAN TRAVEL 2 METERS EVERY MILLISECOND
ARE YOU REALLY OK WITH USING A USB HEADSET KNOWING THIS? MIGHT AS WELL JUST GIVE UP PLAYING GAMES COMPETITIVELY AT THIS POINT LIKE CMON
USB headsets also suck, but like whatever.
And if you really just want a headset to have a headset so you can be a "real gamer" or something, just get a ModMic(http://www.modmic.com/).

30 and 100 ms are a difference yes...
But a USB headset... Might give it a +10 ms latancy. AT MAX.

30 MILLISECONDS MEANS DEATH WHEN YOU'RE FIGHTING THE ENEMY IN THE TOP LANE
EVERY FUCKING FEMTOSECOND COUNTS
DOTA IS THE WORLD'S MOST INTENSE FUCKING GAME OK
THIS IS WHERE THE HUMAN REACTION TIME SUDDENLY STOPS BEING LIKE 150-300 MILLISECONDS
THIS IS WHERE CLICKING A BUTTON 30 MILLISECONDS TOO LATE MEANS UH OH BYE BYE KIDD-O YOURE DEAD
I ONLY USE THE FINEST IN GAMER ORIENTED GEAR WITH 50 BUTTON MICE AND KEYBOARDS WITH LITTLE SCREENS AND 20 MACRO KEYS FOR THE GREATEST ADVANTAGE.
I AM A TRUE DROW RANGER. I HAVE A BLUE BACKLIT MOUSE AND KEYBOARD
I ONLY USE WIRED EQUIPMENT BECAUSE THE UNNOTICEABLE DELAY ON WIRELESS WILL PUT ME ON THE BOTTOM OF THE LEADERBOARD IN THIS HUGE NECKBEARD ORGY

Since you guys wanna be a bunch of asshats. Heres math for you.
USB default Windows polling rate is 125Hz, i.e. it has 8ms latency or lag between each packet. Now, even though each packet is 8 bytes long it seems USB keyboards still need to communicate only one key per packet, and that comes down to 125 keys per second.
PS/2 works at 10-16 kHz and I think protocol defines 11 bits per packet. That comes down to 16,000 / 11 = 1454.55 keys per second.
To provide an example of what these numbers are crunching, its basically how many keys you can jam into a frame. So lets take a fighting game for example. The difference between the two keyboards is how quickly I can execute the keystrokes to do my combo. For the USB I can execute two key strokes within a frame, while using the PS/2 I can obviously jam around 22 keys per frame, which, if you've ever seen any good fighting game players, is the difference between winning and losing. A lot of moves have start up frames of invincibility in modern games so that key difference between frames can be pretty drastic for some gamers.
Now, if you want to actually contribute to the thread, that'd be awesome, or if you just want to be a bunch of cancer to CG, keep on trucking like you guys do.

Fighting games are a bad example, all of the pros use the controllers designed for the specific game. Regardless, we understand what you mean but it's not a noticeable difference for most people. If you are looking for it you'll see it, of course, but he's not asking for competitive gear anyways.

125 keys per second.
PS/2 works 1454.55 keys per second.
Amount of keys a human can press in 1 second = ~50
your 60Hz Monitor running your 658FPS game is only displaying 60 FPS to you.
"Default Windows USB polling rate = 125Hz"
And if you have a high grade product it doesn't follow default windows rates!
My mouse runs at a 500Hz Polling Rate.
Lets remember Higher Number does not mean better. Higher rates require more processing power from the mouse, something no PS/2 mouse is going to hit at anyways. Running above 125Hz on any PS/2 Mouse will result in massive lag on your mouse.
"USB is much faster, but the bandwidth is across many ports as opposed to one port."
"Despite all of this theory, USB is more or less on equal footing in the real-world, even though PS/2 is faster (more direct) and offers NKRO capability. After all, you're probably not printing documents and gaming at the same time. Really, the only hardware combination we'd be worried about would be a fast storage device connected to the same USB root port, since bus utilization of up to 100% is possible in that situation. If you really needed to, you could always disconnect high-bandwidth USB devices when they aren't being used.
The often-recommended trick of turning off USB webcams and microphones won't help. Isochronous transfers always have an open window of at least 20%. So much for the myth of data rates and input lag. Delays will always occur, whether you want them to or not. First, there's the fact that keyboards have a built-in delay. And from there, it's up to the keyboard itself. Which combinations of keys in which quantities can be struck simultaneously?"
Honestly when it comes down to it. All PS/2 is good for is pressing more then 6 keys. Something I doubt you do much anyways.
GOOD DAY TO YOU SIR!

This and Inject's article may have been written pre-USB 3.0 which has an incredible amount of bandwidth, so it's even less of an issue on modern tech.
Also the practical polling rate of PS/2 is set to a default of 100hz.

Don't buy "gaming" headsets. They're shit value for the money and usually pretty shoddily built. I'd suggest getting a pair of headphones and a clip on mic. The Audio-Technica AD-700(these just recently went out of production so they might be hard to find) is a great pair of headphones, and this: http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-ME-52W-Noise-Canceling-Microphone/dp/B000MYPPPE/ is a great mic.
Alternatively for headphones, you can get the CAL(http://www.amazon.com/Creative-EF0060-Aurvana-Live-Headphones/dp/B000ZJZ7OA/), or if you don't mind spending a bit more, just about anything from Beyerdynamic is really good for playing games. Or if neither of those are up your alley, Sennheiser 558s and 598s are also really nice.
As for keyboard, anything mechanical is pretty nice. I have a Razer Black Widow Ultimate and I'm a fan.
Funny, I use the audio-technica ATH-M30's and they're amazing. No mic on them, but honestly, a mic is like an extra $5-10. Unless you're recording yourself talking and need the quality, you probably don't need something super expensive.
I've got a pair of turtle beaches that I pretty much never use because even though the sound quality is good, they're incredibly uncomfortable to wear for a long period of time. And if Burgers' microphone is any indication, they can be waaaaay too sensitive.
For general gaming, the technicas are great. I can honestly wear them for hours without hurting my ears. The model I use is like $60 on amazon, and they're probably the most well built headphones I've ever gotten. Downside (at least to mine) is that they're more for studio work, so it's got an 11 foot one-sided cable, which can be cumbersome. They also don't fold up, which means they take up a bit more space, but I'd contend it's part of why they're so much more comfortable.
If I need to use voice chat at all, I've got a fairly shitty headset I picked up for like $5 that I wear like a necklace. You'll have to ask Live Bait, Burgers or Sniper what the sound quality from them is like, but I don't think it's terrible.
