Hi all!

I am currently in the market for a new mechanical keyboard and mouse. I am hoping for some suggestions for both of them! Here are my requests/requirements for each:

Mouse

-I am a palmer.
-I have big hands (8'' from bottom of palm to middle finger fingertip).
-Max budget is around 100USD but I could stretch it a bit for something really nice and that ticks most of the boxes.
-I'd like some additional buttons. Wouldn't need more than 10.
-I primarily use my mouse for day-to-day activities (i.e. word processing, web surfing, excel sheets, etc), but I do play games such as League of Legends, and possibly some FPS's soon.
-I don't really care either wired or wireless. It will be a desktop mouse, and I won't need to move it, so in order to avoid using batteries and the like, wired might be best.


Keyboard

-As mentioned previously, I have fairly large hands, so I don't want a cramped keyboard.
-Backlighting is not necessary, but would be preferable, especially red backlighting to match my rig. However, I could deal with another color.
-Budget is 100-150USD, but once again, could be stretched for something really nice.
-Need a full size keyboard.
-NEED a numeric pad and media keys. Media keys don't need to be dedicated media keys, but I like the functionality of the media keys.
-Don't care if it's a USB or PS2 interface.
-Key roll over would be nice.
-Macro keys not necessary, would be a bonus.
-US layout.
-Switch type: Cherry MX Brown (like the tactile feel but don't like the noise of the blue keys).

Thanks in advance for the suggestions!
