no, buy a few gamepads/sticks for a few genres (ie one with a good d-pad, one good for 3D games, and an arcade stick) and play those instead.

That's just false. I admit that I haven't encountered it lately, even on cheap USB keyboards bought from Goodwill, but it led to many deaths back in the era when PS/2 keyboards were a thing.

We'll have to disagree there. I can see how a stick might be nice for some platformers, but the button setup of controllers is much more comfortable, in my opinion.

The only reason you're somewhat correct is that 98% of modern PC games are braindead console ports with contextual inputs and other such faggotry designed for gamepads with 8-10 buttons. I bought a mechanical keyboard to play Tribes, and it was one of the best things I ever did.

So far all I've heard is that laser is overrated and optical is more reliable. A big thing for me is that you should never get wireless mice and keyboards for gaming. Wires are the best, esp. once you start fucking with polling rates to get higher quality performance out of your mouse.
It seems to have gotten much harder to get a cheap and quality mouse these days. There's always expensive gaming mice but that shit is overpriced as fuck and if you're not careful you'll still have junk on your hands. A 40 dollar mouse is no guarantee of quality.

I swear by a good mousepad but, as the owner of a premium one, my opinion is biased. There's nothing that quite matches the feel of gliding a mouse over a perfectly smooth surface designed specifically for a mouse to glide over. Feels really good on the wrist, too. More than enough space for high DPI web browsing and applications or low DPI gaming and image editing.
Having said that, the key here is "feel". It feels nice but if you asked me if a mousepad provided any objective improvements over a book then I'd have to shrug. I can't say it's not worth the $5 for a good quality mousepad, though.

Keep in mind that the actuation force is extremely high for a keyboard. You will have to smash your keys down if you don't naturally hit your keys hard when you type. Another thing to keep in mind is the key rollover. I do remember hearing somewhere that they have a whopping two key rollover. I don't own one and I'd never buy one so I never did any research, but if you're interested in it then you should definitely do yours.

They're slightly heavier than mx black, not really that heavy, just requires you to deliberately press the keys. And the 2-key rollover isn't really an issue >>14511578
The biggest problem for gaming is the hysteresis. You really have to let go of the keys before you can press them again. So any game that requires fast tapping will not go well

I'm actually using that exact mouse. The downside is it has a stock polling rate of 125hz and no settings to change it. You'll want to overclock it to 1000hz (which is working fine for me). Here are the tools I used to do that: https://my.mixtape.moe/icfqwd.zip
It also has tools for fixing mouse acceleration and I wrote a README explaining the basics of how to work this shit. Check it out and good luck. Do it right and you should notice a much smoother, more responsive, and more accurate mouse. Good luck.

For a buck, it can't be beat. Decent strength, good lifespan on a single AA. Feels really nice to just sit on it. Insertion requires a condom or something because the shape has a really bad ridge to it. Buy a few of them.

Speaking of that SteelSeries mouse. It has the RGB gimmick. I set up a 5 second transition between some colors and it's smooth as silk. I tried the same transition on my Corsair K70 RGB keyboard and it's jittery shit that jumps through colors as if they're missing. If you set it to "16.8m color mode" the color transition kinda works better but has flickering instead of jumps between colors. If they're going to do the RGB gimmick at least to it well. I dunno if the K70 LUX is any better, but I'm probably not going to get another Corsair keyboard.
I'd like a TKL or 60% keyboard for the small form factor, but at the same time I like the convenience of a number pad.

I took a guess on what that name is, but the important part is you're signed in. This means Google can look at every single site you visit (as if they couldn't already without uMatrix or privacy badger). And Chromium is practically no different from Chrome. Just like "debotnetted windows 10", it's still cancer and it still disrespects your privacy.
And MX Browns are indistinguishable from $20 rubber dome keyboards. It's the official mechanical switch for faggots
>>14512852
The keyboard feels good because it has topre switches and good keycaps. I'm insulting the keyboard's layout (empty spaces on right and left, where there could be extra mod keys) and firmware (no ability to program the layout or layers without replacing the controller). It's practically useless in comparison to the pok3r or other 60% keyboards. And at the price, it's surprising how few features there are. It's practically the Apple of keyboards; you're overpaying for the name

What's the purpose of a keyboard without a numpad? Being serious. I use mine at least twice a day assuming I don't have to do heavy number entry. Is it for when space is a concern or do you actually not use them?

To put the numpad on the left, or in front of you.

I've always assumed it's a space-saving thing and the fact that you don't really need a numpad unless you're inputting numbers all day long at your job or something.
I mean, they're nice and I'd use it if I had one. But not having one doesn't make much of a difference most of the time. The last time I felt its absence was when I tried playing Diablo 2 again a couple of weeks ago and realized I can't spam "TIME TO DIE" anymore without changing the keybindings.

I love my numpad. Can't deal without one. Some people (espeically normalfags) don't use them. And like Dell stripping as many features out as possible (like a num / caps / scroll lock light), they'll cut corners wherever possible to save a cent on manufacturing.

For certain people, the shorter distance needed to travel from mouse to letter keys makes a difference, but this is very much a niche application. Most people who want a tenkeyless keyboard do so for space reasons or just because they find the numpad useless.

Maybe, but it doesn't have to make sense. When IBM introduced the Model M in 1984, it was such a hit that everyone just copied it and now we are stuck with it forever (which I wouldn't mind if they at least copied its build quality as well).
There used to be different layouts before. Some had subtle differences, like F-keys to the left, but some were pretty different, with several shortcuts keys, or even modifier keys that don't exist in regular PCs at all.

NVMe SSD is kind of a meme, for regular desktop use there is literally no difference between it and a SATA SSD
however, it's not bad to have a faster SSD of course, and compared to HDD systems SSD systems are fucking godlike
make sure you DO A GOD DAMN CLEAN INSTALL ON THE SSD instead of trying to move your shitty cluttered install over to the SSD or (god forbid) only using the SSD as a data drive
you need your OS on the SSD for it to be pointful.

Just a friendly reminder that you should never buy anything that is branded as "NEW THING", unless you are a tool for marketers.
I found my keyboard, Steelseries Apex6 in a discount bin. 40€. I really didn't like it at first, too big to be a keyboard, too macro-heavy to fit my interests, and the finishing is too grainy for my fingers.
Funny turn of events, after 2 years of use, it's the best keyboard I have ever used. And Inb4 writefags, This is for casual use. Mechanicals are better for that obviously.
