I am thinking about getting a new gaming keyboard and mouse. I only have 40 dollars. I just need something I can use to play games but isn't the average hp keyboard and mouse. I am using a hp keyboard and hp mouse that came with my old pc. I don't really like the mouse but the keyboard is semi-ok although some buttons are starting to get very mushy. 2 keyboards and mouse setups I thought of:

Thanks and have a good day!
 
I would honestly recommend just saving up the money to buy better. These keyboards aren't that high of quality and have a high chance of having a short life. I would recommend getting the Logitech G502 Mouse which in my opinion is the best mouse on the market. In my experience Mice have had the biggest affect on my gaming. The keyboard doesn't do all that much tbh.

tl;dr Buy the G502 now, save up money and buy the G410 Atlas Spectrum Gaming Keyboard.
 
I've only used Logitech and Razer. I've enjoyed Razer a lot more though, and currently use the Blackwidow Chroma

I have used Corsair and Razer, so far I'm liking my Corsair K65 RGB, a bit high end, but the Cherry MX Red switches are amazing and respond in the blink of an eye.

As for my mouse, I'm using a Roccat Kone Military Black.

I'd advise saving up for more quality peripherals.

I have two mice - a Razer Deathadder, and a Logitech G570 (trackball). While it may not be an adequate gaming mouse, I can certainly attest to logitech's quality after 5+ years of heavy usage and abuse.

The keyboard I run right now is a Logitech G510. The new Logitech G910 is a very good upgrade from this.

I know your budget is limited at the moment, but I highly suggest saving up more for now and spending a bit more, and you will be able to get higher quality products with a better warranty. The wait to buy these will definitely pay off.
 
The two keyboard you're looking into getting are mechanical. Keep that in mind if you've never used one before. Their feel is completely different than modern keyboards (in a way similar to keyboards from decades ago). They're noisy, but they last a more than a few lifetimes and they're heavy.

I personally use the Rosewill RK-9000. As for the mouse, I use the Logitech G5 and have been for many, many years. If you keep the mouse and the pad clean, and don't find need for a million buttons on your mouse, something equivalent is all you're ever going to need.
