I have a $100 budget for both headphones (with a mic) and a keyboard. Any recommendations? Sound quality is important to me, the keyboard doesn't have to be anything special but I want something that will last.

Thanks in advance!

The Build looks good, but a $100 budget for both a headset and keyboard will be tough to fit. The cheapest, most durable with the best sound quality headset I can think of would be the Logitech G230 Stereo Gaming Headset It runs from $45 from Amazon.com. As for a keyboard I would highly reccommend the Logitech G19 or G510, but these would run you over your budget. You could try the Perixx PX-1100 though. It is about $50 and has a nice response rate, although there isnt any macros :/
