Hi,

Looking for a budget tenkeyless mechanical keyboard and any gaming mice within a budget of $150-$200.

Don't need any fancy lighting, just a solid set will do :)

Any suggestion?

Thanks!

Mouse go for steelseries
Personally I use a steelseries sensei raw, bought it second hand at 35 (usual: 109)
Works very well for 7 months already (my usage, previous owner about 1 year+)
Using it to play csgo (450 dpi 2.95 sense)
If 109 is too much can go for rival 100 then try a mechanical keyboard (100-140)
Keyboard no recommendations cause I using crap laptop :(

recommend logitech mouse for everyday use. The free-scrolling wheel is fantastic. Once you have it you cant live without it.

Yes kinda addicted to my Logitech G602 scroll wheel. Not as rigid as others.

g502 is a very good mouse for 109 bucks, got 11 buttons which you can customise to do whatever you want.

for keyboard, a simple chery mx keyboard will do. can get CM, filco for around 150 ish range or you can go for corsair and ducky. personally think one cant go wrong with ducky one series for 150

I'm using G402, good enough for gaming. 59 i think.

Keyboard is a ducky zero blue switch. Feels kindda clunky for gaming but eh... no real reason to get a "gamer" keyboard, there's practically no difference other than the feel of it. got it at 100 bucks from xtreme solutions.

check their FB for discounts and promos, sometimes they have refurbished keyboards too.

logitech g402 mouse , only 2 keys for macro , sufficient for casual gaming
bought from amazon , tiagong quite cheap on lazada with coupon


total about $150 sg dollars

Been trying out my new Razer Blackwidow Tournament Edition, which arrived from Amazon yesterday. This uses Kalih Green which is quite clicky. Heavy and solidly built. Well worth the USD43.99 I paid.

Nicely within my budget. Only coolermaster carrie mechanical keyboards without number pads?

And wow, seems like the g402 is quite the popular mouse in this forums?

what's the difference between a Kalih Green from the common Cherry MX?

Kalih Green is equivalent to Cherry MX Blue. Cherry MX is made in Germany and some view it as superior though there are differing opinions on the web.

For the price of a razer blackwidow, you can get a decent Cherry MX keyboard like CM quickfire rapid, or a Ducky, at lower prices if RGB lighting isn't important to you.
