What kind of game(s) does he play? FPS, MMOs, MOBAs, etc? Just give names I guess? I am going to post a link to a keyboard and a mouse I purchased this year for not too much and they work great and I use my pc a good 8 hours a day.

Mouse

Keyboard

Both of these work great and together they cost 100 before taxes on Amazon. I recommend them for any type of PC gaming, no joke.

hm... in any case. which would you recommend?

If you're not a mechanical snob, there are a ton of others that can be had.

[i like my mushy keyboard, thankyou very much!]

Very heavy, good feet. "purple" is almost more of a pink, so be warned there. I use just red anyhow, but appreciate the ability to switch if the mood strikes me.

Leaves you 20$ for other goodies.

Before I upgraded to a mechanical keyboard, I had the Saitek Eclipse II and it is still amazing (I have it hooked up to a server now). It doesn't look like you can get them new anymore, but I found this Perixx keyboard during a search for the Eclipse that looks exactly the same. I don't know anything about this Perixx brand or how the keyboard is the exact same thing as the Eclipse, but there you go.

Edit: I should note that the knob in the middle of the media controls is for adjusting the light intensity (anywhere from off to pretty bright) not for the volume. The volume up/down buttons are at the top right.

I needed to replace my old keyboard without breaking the bank, so I went for the Perixx PX-1100. Since I usually play story-driven RPGs, I didn't want to get too fancy. Didn't know about the advantages of mechanicals until I looked it up just now, lol. Next time, perhaps!

You still have credit left?

I want to buy this http://www.amazon.com/Perixx-PX-1100-Backlit-Keyboard-Illuminated/dp/B00AQMUE30/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1395355598&sr=8-4&keywords=mechanical+keyboard

No, the power supply is what came with the computer. Let me show you the PC I purchased :

This is the stuff I bought, maybe you can see something is affecting the PC?

Thanks!

Here's the keyboard I've been using for the past few years. It's very durable and I'm very happy with it. I wrote the top review for it on AmazonUS. It's membrane, it has LEDs that turn blue, red, and pink, and the build quality is outstanding. I'm considering trying to mod it though...

Don't worry brother I've got you covered: Perixx PX-1100. Its cheap, mechanical, and German made. Perfect for the PC Master Race. Been using this for a few months now and it does the job pretty well.

you could give this one a try.
