Wireless GAMING keyboard and mouse

Hi Guys,

Looking for some opinions....

So apparently WIRELESS GAMING peripherals don't exist. Whether this is because GAMERS are just damn stubborn and believe in wired and therefore the companies are churning out wired just to appease the market, or because there actually is an objective, reproduce-able input lag, I am not entirely sure. I'm yet to see tests which prove that wireless sets have worse input. (And I'm talking about quality sets, not cheap shitty ones)

So I essentially have an HTPC connected to an LED TV and I use wireless sets because I cant have wired leads running through my lounge. Not exactly appealing or comfortable. However, I have a cheapass MK250 from logitech that I got last year as a student when money was not available. The mouse is kinda fine, altho there are NO extra gaming buttons, bt the keyboard is HORRIBLE and my dota is suffering for it.

So I'm looking at repacing it. I had my eye on the Logitech MX5500.....

Please would appreciate some help. However, please don't just SPAM get WIRED WIRED WIRED. :-)

The wireless set that you are looking to buy is a very decent set. I would go for that if I were you.

I use to use a entry level microsoft wireless keyboard/mouse for gaming. The 'Lag' was unnoticeable and therefore did not matter to me..

Only reason I switched to wired is because my wireless keyboard did not allow me to press more than 3 buttons simultaneously.
 
ok let me be the first to say this.. IF you dont get a GOOD wireless mouse you will regret it for a VERY VERY long time.


very few mouses offer you a smooth running mouse cursor if you are flicking it around.

The 2 i can think off are both quite expensive

namely the G700 and the Rat 9
 
Thanks or the input so far. :-) I need to have a good look at the mouse in the mx5500 bundle. The g700 looks great but it's a R1000. Can anyone recommend a wireless keyboard for bout 400 - 500 that will be decent.
