Mice desktop: HP hdx laser gaming mouse or logitech trackman. Might try a kinzu out eee pc: Microsoft basic optical wheel mouse ($8 at microcenter) Keyboard desktop: Microsoft natural multimedia keyboard and have an ocz alchemy elixir on the way (no windows key on the left side sold me). Might try a cyber snipa warboard too eee pc: the onboard keyboard is perfect Mousepad desktop: steelseries qck eee pc: $3 puppy mouse pad from micro center Headset desktop: Sony mdr-v700s with zalman clipon mic eee pc: iPod earbuds and built in mic As has been said by many here it is mostly preference what you use. As an audio engineer my trackball mouse, split keyboard and Sony headphones work great for editing purposes but aside from my headphones don't translate well for gaming. I don't have huge hands so the Microsoft and HP mice and eee pc keyboard feel great for me. If you are playing mostly rts games you shouldn't need to spend more than $30 for a mouse and keyboard individually. It might be necessary for a little more powerful mouse once Starcraft 2 drops but I play Warcraft 3 on the same dpi settings as Starcraft at twice the resolution with no issues. Be cheap and save yourself money. | ||

Too many buttons/elaborate keyboard layout really isn't helping at all. Whatever mouse/keyboard you have used and is comfortable is the best one you will ever find. | ||

But, Ive had my mx518 for about 5 years now, still works great and I'm not planning on buying a new one anytime soon. I use a razer destructor mousepad, and even though it works really well i dont like buying razer peripherals because of how much they put into making it look nice. My brother has a func 1030 and it seems better in every way, including durability. Ofc headphones don't really matter, but if comfort and sound quality is important to you (ie if you do anything else besides sc) i would DEFINITELY recommend the speedlink medusa. Got it about a year ago and it demolishes anything ive had before. | ||

That statistic has nothing at all to do with RTS gaming. In RTS, you generally want a very fast cursor speed so that you can plant your wrist bone and move around the entire screen without moving your arm. I'm pretty sure you'd have to be some kind of awesome Olympic mouse tosser to mess up even the slowest mouse on that list while playing an RTS game with proper settings. | ||
