    Gaming Mouse, Headset and Pad for 60£?

    Hey guys I was saving some cash for a nice headset but my MX revolution suddenly started to act funny. Now i need a new mouse, pad and headset

    For what i have seen the razor deathadder an copperhead seem to be the favourites, which one would you go for? Any other models to look at?

    The mouse will be about 35£, can I squeeze a decent pad and headset in a budget of 60£?



    Suggestions would be appreciated


    Thanks !

    Re: Gaming Mouse, Headset and Pad for 60£?

    You can't consider a mouse without considering the MX1100. Better than a Revolution. And yes, I know it's a Logitech, but that's because Logitech make good input devices (I have a G15 v2 and a MX1100).

    MX1100 doesn't really need a mousepad. I've never used one.

    MX1100 is £41.39 on Scan.

    Unfortunately the headset I would recommend is both out of the £60 budget and out of stock on Scan.

    Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset is £32.72 on Scan

    The Logitech G5 allows you to adjust the weight and it is an excellent feature to have. Also the mouse had a textured non-slip coating which is very useful too.

    Placed an order in Argos a few weeks back when it was 17£, sadly they later told me it was out of stock elsewhere is like 25£+

    I am big headed too so I really afraid to buy something too small and uncomfortable.


    --------------------------------
    Edit:

    Well I am undecided between the Deathadder and the G5 they cost about the same

    Deathadder:

    Looks better ^^
    Performs better? (Most reviews say so)
    24 months warranty (only 12 in the G5 )

    G5:

    Design similar to other logitech i have used.
    Weight system.
    Change DPI settings on the go.

    Don't worry about the warranty on the G5, it's a logitech!, they will replace it well out of warranty for you

    as for a headset, think it was ebuyer that was doing the fatality for £25 not along ago
    Someone left a note on a piece of cake in the fridge that said, "Do not eat!". I ate the cake and left a note saying, "Yuck, who the hell eats paper ?
