Do I really need a gaming Mouse/Kb?

[xBigCalx1987]

I've been a console gamer since the NES days. Just recently began pc gaming a few months ago. I'm having major problems adjusting to Shooters. Is a gaming mouse/keyboard really necessary?

Not really, you could try getting a xbox controller for your pc.

It's all up to your preference.
I like the "clicky" feel of a mechanical gaming keyboard, whether I'm typing or gaming.
On the other hand, I bought an expensive gaming mouse (MadCatz R.A.T.7), and have used it for about 1 hour total, preferring the feel of my ancient Logitech G6.

No

Does it help?

Yes

Should you consider getting a mouse to see?

Possibly

Is it uber comfortable and sexy?

Yes

Just get the mouse (you don't need the keyboard)

Watch the video then he has links on mouses and mouse fixes.
He was a pro gamer and does awesome videos in general. Ranging from bf4 to dayZ.

I bought a cheap gaming mouse (Gigabyte GM-M6800) a little while ago after my old mouse died. It isn't necessary and I can't say that it has upped my game at all. What I would say is that having an extra couple of buttons on the mouse is nice to have, more convenience than anything else.

For my keyboard I have a Microsoft sidewinder X4, which replaced an old keyboard I was using. Not a huge difference here.

I got both of these at very good prices, and I don't think it is worth it to spend hundreds on them. Although, to each their own.

My razer mouse have been following me for 2 years now. I lurve it and don't plan on changing to a new one so soon. Might consider getting a controller.
