Logitech Announces New PC Gaming Peripherals
Logitech launched three new gaming peripherals for the PC.
If you're looking for a little love from Logitech in the gaming department, the company has added three new peripherals to its G-Series line: the Wireless Gaming Headset G930, the Wireless Gaming Mouse G700, and the Gaming Keyboard G510. All three products are currently up for purchase on Logitech's website, but are also slated to hit retail shelves soon.
The Wireless Gaming Headset G930 features "gaming-grade" wireless technology designed specifically for two-way, uncompressed audio streaming. They also provide 7.1 Dolby surround sound support, three programmable G-keys for controlling music levels, voice morphing, and chat client volumes. Memory foam keeps the headband comfortable while plush ear pads ward off any outside noise.
Logitech's Wireless Gaming Mouse G700 was designed for MMOG players while keeping FPS fans in mind. Its ergonomic design keeps the hand comfortable while 13 "precisely placed" controls offer the user plenty of customization. A full-speed wireless connection--reporting 1000 times per second--reduces lag without crippling in-game performance.
The wired peripheral in the trio--the Gaming Keyboard G510--features 18 programmable G-keys with three mode states, providing up to 54 possible macro settings per game. The built-in GamePanel LCD display renders PC performance data and real-time game stats while the keyboard's RBG backlighting (somewhat) illuminates the desktop day or night.
The Wireless Gaming Headset G930 carries a $159.99 pricetag, making it the most expensive in the bunch. The Gaming Keyboard G510 trails behind in second place, priced at $119.99. The Wireless Gaming Mouse G510 falls into third with a $99.99 pricetag.
Their G7 is excellent for gaming. I've used it for years. When my last one gave out a year ago, I couldn't find a better mouse, so I went to ebay and got a used one. Odd thing is the used ones sell for almost the original retail price of $80 and new ones in the box sell for close to $120 now. It's just that good of a mouse. The batteries are easily swappable, have an external charger, and it comes with 2 batteries, so one is always charged. (I now have 5 batteries, making for a nice stockpile of charged batteries.) There's also no lag, if you position the receiver right. It's a great mouse.
i mean i own the g15 r1 and unless logitech added something that they didn't list here, imo the r1 looks better with the same capabilities.

tell me if i'm wrong.
The new keyboard has a color lcd screen(might be limited to the backlighting color), I'm guessing a higher resolution on it as well. It also has the g110's media controls and the sound and mic plugs.
if anything this is a true g15 v2. since really the other g15 remakes/remodels were awful compared to the g15 v1.
