Hi, i wanted a new wireless keyboard and mouse. Its for gaming and some 3d modeling. Wanted to know if this MS keyboard is a good choice http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16823109050 ?
Anything other suggestions would be useful as well. Thanks.

Any specific reason?

Because back in the day there was a lag between the device and the computer. There is no lag anymore but people still cling to old problems.

i have that keyboard + mouse combo, the mouse has an akward feeling.
The keyboard is really loud.

The media keys are nice. Mine stopped working after 2 years. I still have the mouse though.

I'd get this one, same price.

that's not true anymore. There is no difference.

No, these guys are right. Wireless is horrible for gaming, latency and recharging/changing batteries is inconvenient. As for the mouse, Razer mice have a sense of control above any other.

Simply put : No.

You may have to change your batteries once or twice a year... and recharging.. well, unless you are on 24 hours a day. Its no problem at all. . .


For a mouse, you have try it out first, because if the feel isnt right, you wont be able to use it properly. For example : I prefer my Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse to most of the 'gaming' mice , because it fits my hand better. Try it before you buy it if possible.
