This particular screen is fit for Hz gaming and harnesses the full capability of OLED for wonderfully deep picture quality and contrast. It comes with built-in speakers and auto color calibration. If you weren't thinking about getting a gaming projector, you are now!

And sure, it's no lightning-fast PCIe 4. Will make a speedy extension to your games library, or a decent boot drive in its own right. Strong 4K performance and solid real-world performance make for a quality option, particularly at this price. With the SN and Pro offering roughly the same performance but for a lot less, it's been hard to unreservedly recommend Seagate's drove.

This is the stuff dream machines are made of. While we've had faster PCIe 4. It's DRAM-less and fairly barebones, but for the money, you can't really complain. It runs a bit on the toasty side, so you'll need good airflow in your system, but once you've got that sorted you'll enjoy incredible performance in your games.

With a loud green trim and subtle snakeskin design, the Iskur is a distinctive gaming chair, from a trusted brand. It has incredible back support, cooling material for active gaming positions, and a year warranty. It's pricey, but worth it, and we rarely see it discounted.

The main drawback is some minor armrest rattle, but otherwise it's a great, well-built chair, and perfect for the bigger-framed gamers among us. It's not the cheapest option but its the most modular, highly ergonomic and we're totally convinced it could survive a nuclear blast.

And if the black-grey combo doesn't turn your crank, you can also opt for brighter blue and red accents instead. It's not the most well padded and in full recline apparently feels a little precarious, but it's comfortable, well built, and great for wider folks. It's highly customisable, like the Embody above, but is made from lighter, mesh fabrics.

It's very comfortable, too, though we do prefer the gaming stylings of the Embody as well. Still, the Aeron is a great option if you're willing to invest in your desk setup with a superb ergonomic chair.

One thing it offers that others don't, however, and it is an expensive optional extra, is RGB LED lighting around the top of the chair. I mean if that's your style, it certainly has a unique selling point.

It also comes with additional head and lumbar pillows, supports up to pounds, and offers an extra color option: The Vartan is available with blue , white , red , and purple accents.

Though it's worth mentioning that it doesn't come with any capture software of its own, so you'll have to rely on your own OBS Studio nouse. But it's got great picture quality and will do 4K passthrough so you can game at 4K and output at p for capture and streaming. It delivers an impressively sharp p image, and its autofocus is quick and it has reliable white balance, too.

You can also rest assured this is a high quality mouse from a reputable brand with a great ergonomic shape. One that comes with three interchangable side plates for a host of play-styles. Just make sure you don't lose the cable because nothing else fits. In fact it's actually got one up on the Pro, because it comes with the excellent circle-of-buttons panel which Razer annoyingly ditched for the updated wireless version.

It's a fan favourite, and we're big fans too, although clearly it's a lot pricier than your average gaming mouse, even a wireless one. With the included charging dock, though, you can take the hassle out of charging your battery. Though it's not got the highest DPI in the business, it boasts great ergonomics and decent build quality, too—there's not much more you can ask at that price.

Perfect for those who crave a floaty mouse with zero cabling to tie it down. Still, the only other downside was the price. Not so much right now. That said, it has tracked at this price for a few months on Amazon, but that doesn't make it any less of a deal today if you're in the market.

We've singled it out as the 'best gaming keyboard for per-key actuation,' so it's for those who hold speed as a top priority. It's mechanical, using Logitech's own Romer-G switches, and is built to last. Only thing is it's available with red lighting and not RGB. I know that'll be a dealbreaker for some, but for a mechanical keyboard it's great value. For the pro gamer in your life who has no time for numpads. What's great is you get a low profile, spill resistant keyboard from a trusted manufacturer.

Optical switches make it faster than your average mechanical board, and you get a wrist rest as well. Not too shabby.

He's not joking. They're pretty darn similar, too, with the same construction and factory of origin. Yet the HD 8XX have been tweaked a little bit, which reportedly makes them slightly less neutral sounding than the HD S, and so ultimately offer a different listening experience. With a banging frequency response and the added convenience of a wireless design, we cant recommend these enough.

The sound quality is really impressive for the money too. The battery life isn't as strong as some, but it's still a decent offering, especially at this reduced price. If you find a gaming laptop with older hardware in it, don't write it off immediately, however. We usually see some laptops with dated hardware and deep discounts, and honestly, they're great if you're on a budget.
