Anyone here got any recommendations for a gaming keyboard and/or gaming mouse? Just in case it matters, I play more competitive style games. Love Guild Wars for the player vs. player, and I am also going to start playing a lot of UT3.
I'm a little on the edge about getting a limited edition keyboard especially for a game, not really a fan of the artwork on them.
Nothing that's like Logitech's $200 mouse selection either please, can't afford that much for a mouse haha.

Thats the keyboard I use.
I personally use a Logitech G5 "Gaming-Grade" mouse. Got to <3 the adjustable cursor speed.
Though, if I remember correctly, it is around $100-150. I could be (way) off, though.
For Mice, Razer has some of the best.
I have their Copperhead and it works like a charm. In UT2k4 I can go from doing a 180 with the twitch of my wrist, to a slow sniper speed.
They have a couple of nice options I suggest.
(note: All Razer mice can have the sensitivity adjusted. They just list the max sensitivity the mouse can preform at)

First, Lachesis. Their latest mouse. 4000dpi(most high-end gaming mice get up to 1800-2000dpi)

Then there is the Krait. Suppose to be "tuned for MMORPGs and RTS", but I honestly don't know if thats just techno-bable or not... It's dpi goes up to 1600

And then there is the good old Copperhead. It's got a 2000dpi. It's the same model I got, and I'm not at all disappointed with the purchase.
now, for a keyboard I have the Logitech G15. The big-honk'en keyboard that is 21 inches wide, has a LCD screen, and 18 macro keys, and allowed you to make three sets of macros for each profile, so you have access to up to 54 macros in a game.
And, it may be huge as ***** but I love it. It lights up(or not, if you don't want), has a very nice LCD screen that has a few nice default options, or you can download a plug-in for other stuff. Some programs even come with a program by default that uses the screen.

They re-designed the keyboard, and I personally don't like it as much as mine, but it's not bad:

Razer makes a few keyboards. Their latest option looks quite nice:

I'm still alive with my microsoft mouse.
I use my shitty old Dell mouse since my good mouse "mysteriously" broke a few weeks ago.
Go for G15 keyboard & G5 mouse.
