    My shabby old wireless keyboard and mouse is really showing suckage when it comes to gaming these days so I'm looking for a new set.

    I'm not sure if I believe if a "gaming" keyboard or mouse really gives you an edge, but if it's built strong I might go for something along those lines. My "W" key is about shot.

    I have a laptop so I can't help with the KeyBoard, However I actually really like my Logitech G700 wireless/Wired mouse. It is wireless, but if you put a chargeable battery in it you can charge it and play with it like is is a wired mouse. It have several different sensitivity profiles, a free scrolling selective mousewheel and 4 extra function buttons along the thumb. The function buttons are really helpful for having TeamSpeak and being in Game and being able to talk in both selectively without having to move your other hand from your WASD. -But thats just me :)-

    I would recommend the Logitech g502 for the mouse. I have been using it for almost a year now, and it has performed wonderfully. the ability to modify the weight and balance of the mouse really helps it feel better in my hand. It has the most accurate sensor on the market as far as I know, at 12000 DPI, and while that is no where near necessary, it can reduce the likelihood that your mouse will make a mistake.

    Here is the link for it: http://gaming.logitech.com/en-us/product/g502-proteus-core-tunable-gaming-mouse

    For keyboards, I would recommend the Corsair k70, as Dracula suggested, or the Razer Blackwidow 2013. My friend has had the 2013 for a little over a year now, and he loves it.

    No matter what you get, try to go for specs that matter to you, and not random features that have no real effect. Also, if you can, go to a local computer store and see if they have the peripheral that you want out so that you can try it out for yourself to make sure you like it.

    Best of luck :3

    I also use the Logitech G502. I got mine about a month and a half ago after my old, cheaper gaming mouse died. It has performed excellently thus far and I am very pleased with it. I don't have keyboard recommendations since I'm a laptop gamer.

    I'm another G502 owner. It's a very high quality and durable mouse. I also use a G910 mechanical gaming keyboard.

    Far as mice go, it all depends what kind of grip you use plus the comfort and style. For instance I am a claw grip and I don't enjoy many buttons or weird design mice. I rather have something just plain Jane.

    I use the Sensei MLG version http://steelseries.com/gaming-mice/sensei

    I also have the Zowie FK2 http://www.zowiegear.com/index.php?i=product&p=20

    The Zowie I had for about 8 months now and I use it with my labtop when i'm playing. When I am home and on my desktop I use the Sensei MLG version and to me out of both the Sensei is my favorite as it's so light and smooth gliding.
