I have gone through 3 keyboards this year,and have now decided to buy razer.
Today i took delivery of a razer tarantula and deathadder 3500 dpi mouse,and i have to say my game has incresed dramatically.Overall 10/10.

I previously owned a saitek cyborg keyboard and mouse,which didn't last long at all,the right mouse button broke within 24 hours and the keyboard keys stopped functioning properly after a couple of months.
Upon contacting saitek they said that this was a common problem and to return to the retailer for a new one.
Upon doing that the second lot went exactly the same.
So i can not advise buying saitek products.

Any reccomendations for any other kit?

I have the first G15 ver keyboard ( 2-3 years now ) still going good . Well my shift key is starting to go
Also have a G9 mouse ( 1 y ) still going good

any 1 try the new G19 keyboard yet ???? any good ???

I have a Razer deathadder that I've been pounding on for a couple years now and its still in great shape.

Only thing starting to go with my laptop's keyboard is that the W, A, S, D, Q, E, and C keys have almost no paint left on them. lol

My keyboard is stock, but I splurged on my mouse.

Logitech G7 wireless laser mouse. The best part is that it has hot-swap Li-ion batteries (2 of them) so that one is always charging/charged and the other is being used. That way if the battery in the mouse runs out of juice right in the middle of some gaming i just swap em out and am back at it in about 2 seconds. I don't know why but its hard to find the G7... its such a good mouse.
