What to look for in a gaming accessories bundle
If you’re in the market for a gaming bundle, there are a few important factors to keep in mind:
- What’s included: Ensuring that you’re getting a bundle that actually has what you need.
- Keyboard format: Mechanical or rubber dome, wired or wireless?
- Mouse format: Wired or wireless? What shape and grip are you looking for?
- Lighting accessories: Check to see how these components are powered, and if they’re compatible with your setup.
- Macro control surfaces: Look closely at the device you may need so you can control extraneous functions at the push of a button.
- Other accessories: Headphone stands, mouse pads, and other accessories can round out your bundle.
Are keyboards and mice the best ways to play your game?
Many of CORSAIR’s gaming accessories bundles center on keyboard and mouse combos, and that’s for good reason: These peripherals are tried-and-true ways to control your game. But is a keyboard and mouse really the best combo for gaming? Many pro gamers prefer this method of control because a high-precision mouse can really help you dial in your aiming accuracy and activations, while mechanical keyboards allow a degree of sharpness for button input thanks to their clear, clicky actuation points. But as with most things, this really is a preference. Many games lend themselves better to a controller-based setup, so think through what games you want to play and let that inform your gaming accessory bundle.
