I want to buy a new Keyboard, Mouse and Headphones (prefferebly with Microphone) for gaming but there are too many to choose from. I need a keyboard the most, then headphones then a mouse.

I've got my eyes on:

Keyboard: Razer BlackWidow: £70

Mouse: Razer Naga: £70

Headphones: Razer Carcharias: £70

Never bought from Razer before but their products seems good, although their products seems to be very expensive for their worth (e.g £51 Mouse Pad). I don't really know any other good make. Do you know anything better?
 
I have a Razer mouse and kb which are fine.
I've never used a Razer headset but haven't read great things about them.
For a mouse pad i would buy a hard surface one probably a Steelseries HD.
Look to pay between £12-25 i wouldn't pay more for a mouse pad.

Hi Unifried. I can try and offer some suggestions, but what budget are you looking at for your components? Are you also looking to get all of the same brand, or do you care about that? Thanks.

I don't care about the brand, I want something cheap (10-30 pounds) but can be more expensive if they are worth the price (30-70 pounds). Thanks!
 
My suggestions are these -

Mouse

Headset - Same as your selection
