PC GAMING continued

THE SIMPLE BARE ACCESSORIES No matter whether you go the desktop, laptop, or even handheld route, you’ll likely want to get some accessories added to your PC gaming setup. A rocksteady gaming keyboard can be a must, and mouse gaming via a laptop touchpad? Nope!

FURNITURE While the couch or a kitchen chair may be alright for some, others will want their gaming space to be a bit more special. That’s the time to check out a gaming chair, designed to both look the part and keep you supported during even the longest sessions, while a desk can offer all the

right spots to set everything up just how you like it.

KEYBOARD Even if you’re rocking a laptop, a separate keyboard can take you to the next level when gaming. A full-sized keyboard, or even tenkeyless – which means no numeric keypad – brings full-sized keys to the equation. Then there’s the option of mechanical keys, which allow faster presses, are comfortable for long play sessions, and are built so as to possibly last even longer than you.

MOUSE When it comes to gaming, your everyday office workhorse mouse simply won’t cut it. A dedicated gaming mouse provides everything from lightness to adjustable sensitivity, better sensors, and even programmable buttons to assist you in-game. A well-chosen mouse can make a huge difference to your competitivity.

HEADSET Whether it’s others in your home or tetchy neighbours, we don’t always have the luxury of pumping out our game sounds at the volume that we’d like. This is why a headset is a gaming essential. You can spend a little or a lot, with a wealth of audio possibilities that not only sound great but can help improve your play with such tech as spatial audio.
