Hey guys!
So this is a pretty noob-y question, but I feel like I need to ask it. I have a bit of spare money lying around after paying for some upgrades (new GPU's), and I'm looking for some minor upgrades, but not the usual things. I don't want to upgrade the computer itself, I'm just looking for some cool accessories. What are some cool accessories that you guys would recommend for a finished high-performance gaming system? Stuff like headphones, game-pads, etc.
Thanks in advance! :)

So you are looking for peripherals for your system? In that case I recommend the Logitech G35 headset, the Razer Deathstalker keyboard, and the Razer Deathadder mouse, or the Razer abyssus mouse.

Kind of, but not really. I've had my system for a year now (with sufficient peripherals), and I'm just looking to get some new, different things; meaning that I don't want to replace the mouse/keyboard/etc. that I have now, I just want to get some new stuff to go with it; like headphones, and other stuff like that.
I know that I'm phrasing this absolutely terribly (and I'm sorry for that), but what I'm really looking for are just little things that people have with their computers that generally aren't bought in the first "round of purchasing", so to speak; things like headphones, graphics tablets, speakers; stuff that improves your environment, but isn't exactly necessary.
Thanks! :)

Ah I see now, all of my stuff like that came from collectors edition games so I dont really have any help there. With headphones the logitech one, something from razer, or astro are the best of the best.

But what type of stuff do you have? Like are there any sort of obscure things that you think would be helpful in a gaming setup?

One thing I have is a cable bungee that keeps my mouse cable from slipping off the desk so I dont have to keep moving the cord (from razer). Thats really all i have in the ways of helping with gaming.

Huh thanks :)  On a completely unrelated note, do you have any experience with water cooling? (sorry if this kind of "hijacks" the thread)

I dont have much knowledge in the subject, I know a fair amount about closed loop cpu coolers, but not much on custom systems.

Oh. So you probably wouldn't be able to answer a hypothetical question?
Ah, what the heck. I'll ask it anyway ;) 
It's pretty simple; I have a 650D, and I want to try to WC 2x770's as well as my 3770k. If I use the top fan slots for a 2x140mm rad and the front one for a 2x120mm rad, would that provide sufficient cooling, as well as leave enough room for everything else? If you don't know, that's fine. :)
