I need (in priority)
1. Mouse. currently looking at steelseries sensei or final mouse 2015. Hybrid palm/claw user. $129 - Lazada
2. Chair. One that helps improve my sitting posture.
3. Keyboard. using a really shitty keyboard. I will need full N-key rollover. Prefer black or brown switch.
4. Hardware upgrades? Dont really feel any need atm, although i want to upgrade to 8gb ram.

Btw its for cs:go competitive gameplay.
Any idea how much all these will cost me? As cheap as possible.
Please help recommend items n store to get from!! Thnx

I think it will make more sense if you could provide the budget you confortable with. Else quite hard to recommend anything to you.

500 for all the upgrades abit...little...

May have to make some compromises...

Dont really you need N key roll over do you? I think black switches are heavy and perhaps a little less responsive?

i definitely need n key roll over, i can compromise the monitor though. 500 for keyboard mouse n a chair.

Mouse - $120 -mionix, roccat etc or logitech g402/g303 $70
KB - $$130-$250
Chair - ergonomic chair is already $300+ at least? those on lazada/qoo10 does nth to help posture i feel

Cheapest = None of the above.
:D

Buying the above will not help you in your skill as a competitive player.

Like how the last year SF4 winner uses the default PS1 Controller while the rest uses Satki expensive fighting stick.
:D

1. You can try Logitech Gaming Mouse G502 with G440 (Hard) or G420 (Soft) mousepad. Go to PCT or Fuwell.
2. No idea.
3. BenQ XL2411Z. Go to Xtreme Solution.
4. Filco Majestouch NINJA (Full size or Tenkeyless). No need for LED. Also, avoid keycap print fade. Go to Xtreme Solution.
5. Logitech Stereo Gaming Headset G230. Go to PCT or Fuwell.

Good luck! :D

Actually my mouse just broke, so i'm with a mouse that can't even glide smoothly on the surface.
n my budget keyboard space is shaky, the support below broke.
It's enough for pub stomp but competitive i guess no.
So i'm sure proper gear will make a difference =P.

I tried that mouse before but it is indeed not bad.
Hmm, actually I've used the old razer krait ever since it was released, it broke just recently.

Hi guys, for the
Keyboard i think i'll go with the ducky zero dk2108 ($119 xtremesolutions) or Tesoro G7NFL ($115 Lazada).
I'm not sure which has better quality .. any ideas?
Mouse - SS Sensei raw rubber ($130 - Lazada or xtremesolu?)

Left with around $250

Ikea markus at $299 can consider. Although i feel the flintan is more comfortable.

Thanks for the recommendation but it is pretty expensive for me, any other cheaper alternatives?

Go for logitech g502 at $89/99. Use coupon to bring price down by $20 or so.

A really budget and decent setup

1.G100s mouse + keyboard from logitech (This is really decent. I have been using the Mx300, G1, G100 series for the longest of time) - $50 for mouse + Keyboard

2. 2nd hand benq 2411XL from market place - saw someone selling at $320

Left with $130 can buy mousepad and headset
