    Gaming keyboard / mouse

    I had a wireless keyboard come in for the first time and just discovered how crap they are for gaming... e.g. in FPS games. The response time is ridiculously slow.

    So I've switched back to my 5 year old wired Mesh keyboard for now.

    I was looking at the Saitek II keyboard, it looks pretty good and has good reviews. Have you guys got any recommendations for a gaming keyboard / mouse that won't cost too much?

    I have an alternative. It's called a life. It's great, you get to go to the pub, shag birds, the lot!

    It's the ultimate FPP game.

      Why does someone always have to chip in with a 'get a life' comment whenever gaming is mentioned? Going to the pub and shagging birds is great up till the point when you grow up get married and have children then one has to find other pass times, gaming to the initiated is no less of an entertainment medium than film, I cycle, ski, run, watch football, cook and go to the pub.

      But because I play computer games I will always be branded a nerd with no mates!

      I have always found Logitech stuff to be good and responsive.

          For a mouse a razer deathadder is very good (I think that's what the latest one is called) but don't get a habu, it is not that great.

          I still use my good old Cherry keyboard from 8 years ago which still works perfectly, however I hear logitech have some rather swanky gaming keyboards (G15 was it) if you are into that sort of thing.
