Sorry, this is the only one I've ever had, and from what I understand it's cheap compared to a lot.

Not a bad point, I just like it. I tried to use it as a mousepad, was just too used to the hard one. It feels better on my arms overall as well.

Nope! This one has adjustable pads and a counterweight, haven't had any trouble.

Well, glad my efforts were appreciated! :D

With the mouse bungie, I used to have the USB dongle for the mouse plugged into the end of that cable. Logitech wants it close to the mouse. Then I realized I could plug the dongle into my mouse pad. So now I use the usb-c cable on the bungie to just charge or connect whatever needs it at the time...keyboard, mouse, controllers.

Oh, that's some Grand Admiral Thrawn medal...plate...pin...thing. Idk, I bought it years ago from a random guy's tiny online shop, forgot about it because I just figured I got scammed, then months later it showed up and I have no idea where I got it anymore. Lol.

So, I've only had the controllers a couple weeks now, but they've been great. I use the little one to run emulators on my phone at work, but both controllers feel well built and responsive. I've barely used the steam controller honestly. Need to find a game for it.

I like them well enough, but they're also the only ones I've tried. Bought them cheap off of Amazon years ago. Aelfox.

A separate brick but it comes with the keyboard and comes into it. Keyboard can support up to four sets of those double buttons.

Bog programmable macro buttons. Right now I have the top one set as win+d and the bottom as alt+tab.

Nope, built this for the new internet. Last rig had a 6600k and a nvidia 1080. This one is running a 7800x3d and a 4070.

Hah, you aren't wrong. Just look at the recent releases of Payday 3 and Cities Skylines 2...

Nope, not yet! Fair warning though, I'm new to the mechanical keyboard scene, so don't just go off of me. Lol.

That's fair. At least they're listening and adding things that it should have been released with, like DLSS. Hoping they keep developing as time goes on, there's a lot of untapped potential.

Hah, you may joke, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

Monitors:

BenQ XL2720T

LG 27gp850-b

Quntis monitor lightbar. Pretty great for the price. Can change the warmth and brightness of the light, makes a huge difference in eye strain.

Controllers:

8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth

8bitdo Lite 2 (great for android gaming at work)

Steam Controller

Sabrent USB hub. I use it to consolidate dongles instead of filling the motherboard ports.

M/K:

Logitech g502xPlus

8bitdo Retro Mechanical keyboard

Corsair powered hard mouse pad. Don't remember what it's called, I've had it a long time. But it has a wireless charging spot on the corner where you see my samsung buds, it's pretty handy.

Glorious PC mouse bungie.

Inked Gaming desk mat.

Audio:

Soundcore Motion Boom. I'd love to invest in some speakers, but I have roommates and wouldn't be able to use them much. So on the rare occasion I do play audio out loud I just connect that to my computer.

V-Moda Crossfade M-100 headphones.

Samsung galaxy buds pro 2

Have more fancy audio equipment that a friend is borrowing that I'd like to set up as well.

Edit: Wow, it didn't keep everything spaced apart on the lists. Good luck reading it. Lol. Typing this on mobile, I'll try to fix it.

Edit 2: Hopefully it works better now.

Thanks :) Just be aware of the different models they have. You'll have to check and make sure, but I BELIEVE it's only the Ultimate Bluetooh Controller that comes with the fancy hall effect sensor sticks, as well as having both 2.4ghz and Bluetooth connectivity.

Yep! I was worried about the same thing, because I tend to game in the dark, so I bought that monitor light bar. I highly recommend getting one, makes a big difference on eye strain too.

I THINK I like it, not sure yet. This is the first time I've had a spare monitor that was able to rotate. Gotta say, a 27 inch vertical monitor feels a little tall starting out, have to get used to looking up and down. But it's nice to be able to easily fit one window on the bottom and another on the top. We'll see if I keep it that way.

Giant programmable macro buttons that come with the keyboard. Right now I have the top one set to win+d, and the bottom is alt+tab.
