Been working on a new $750 build I might be getting soon. Have put in a good amoutt of thought to each part, other than the peripheals. I need to get a mechanical keyboard, gaming mouse, and a monitor. Now the monitor is what i need the most reccomendation on. Im getting somewhere around a GTX 660-760. I know thats a pretty bif jump, but they're both good cards, so i need a monitor that will display them in there full glory. Now, correct me if im wrong, but HDMI is the way to go for quality over VGA and DVI, correct? I also just need a decent mechanical keyboard and gaming mouse reccomendation, nothing to crazy of fancy, just decant quality for a good price. Any reccomendations to get me going would be helpful.

Thanks!

dvi and hdmi quality are about equal. you could go with either. in some cases people use a dvi to hdmi cable if the two dont match up however i would suggest matching up. eg if your card has a hdmi output get a hdmi monitor.

razer gaming keyboards are typically junk. they have had many problems over the years with them and i would definitely look elsewhere. the only positive thing is that they do come with software for macros and the like. the software can be buggy though at times.

the mouse isnt bad (perhaps the only thing they got "right" but i prefer the old version since i like the rubber better than the hard coating and the old version doesnt requrie synapse software but uses standard mouse drivers instead.

what would i suggest?

razer deathadder 3.5 $45 on amazon.com
ducky zero mx blue $85 on mechanicalkeyboards.com

just two of many viable solutions though...
