I’m here with a video going over some of my favorite gaming gear. Something I get asked about all the time is what mouse and keyboard I use. When gaming I really like the Logitech G710+. While there are a lot of cheap mechanical keyboards out there, the G710 adds some features that make the extra price worth it for me.

First of all, are the Cherry MX Brown switches which strike a nice balance between clickiness and not being incredibly loud. Another nice feature is the customizable backlighting. Using the buttons on top you can light just the WASD and arrow keys, the entire keyboard or change the brightness of each individually. Small touches like a volume wheel, game modes to disable things like the Windows button and an extra USB port onboard make the Logitech G710+ an awesome gaming keyboard.

Moving over to the mouse we have my absolute favorite, the Corsair Vengeance M95. The first thing you’ll notice is that this is built like an absolute tank with aluminum wrapping around the entire body and covering the bottom which also happens to look awesome. The ergonomics are spot on with a slightly grippy finish on the outside and a thumb rest on the inside. Since this is geared more toward MMOs, you have nine programmable macro keys along with the ability to change sensitivity right on the fly.

What really sets the M95 apart though is the tracking. This has basically ruined my old mouse while it’s not really meant for hardcore gaming I really liked using the Logitech Performance MX for the great ergonomics and extra buttons but the 8200 DPI sensor in the M95 is so much more accurate at even simple things like browsing that it’s no contest. Considering it’s not even that expensive for a gaming mouse, the Corsair Vengeance M95 is definitely worth a look.

Next we have speakers and here I use the HarmanKardon Soundsticks 3. While plenty of people have pointed out the slightly unique shape, I personally really like the clear look. As a 2.1 setup you get two satellites with four one-inch tweeters each along with the six-inch round subwoofer. Each speaker has an adjustable stand as well as you also have touch controls for volume.

Now these are under $200 speakers so don’t expect anything too insane as far as the audio quality goes however for listening to music and editing audio I have no complaints. There’s some solid bass with the subwoofer which you can adjust with a knob on the back, and the highs are nice and clear. The midrange is a bit lacking but I’ll let you guys have a listen for yourselves.

Overall if you want a nice looking and sounding set of speakers that won’t break the bank it’s hard to go wrong with the Harman Kardon Soundsticks 3. Another important part of my gaming setup is the Elgato Game Capture HD. This is a killer little capture card that allows you to record gameplay from basically any console out there including the Xbox One, PS4, PC and more.

The hardware itself is small and simple with a Mini USB port which handles both power and data, HDMI and A/V in from your console and HDMI out to a monitor. It’s dead simple to use and allows you to record at 1080p while still playing a game using the HDMI passthrough which keeps lag out of your way. Quality is great, especially for YouTube as this is how I record basically all of my gameplay.

There are presets for different consoles and since it works with nearly any HDMI signal, I also use the Game Capture to record gameplay from my PC builds which is nice when I don’t want to impact the performance. It even supports retro consoles like the PS1 with an RCA connector. If you want to capture high-quality gameplay the Elgato Game Capture HD is absolutely worth a look.
