I don't get it. People here on /v/ often slam people for getting expensive peripherals, but why? Not only does it feel more comfortable, it has more utility and can improve your gaming skills.
Depends on who you talk to about it honestly.
I'm all for buying expensive stuff as long as it's high quality.
Buying an overpriced razer keyboard is not okay, but buying an overpriced mechanical keyboard that's like 200 dollars without even the letters on it when you could build the same exact shit and have it look nicer for less than half is also not okay.
As long as you're buying a quality product though I don't see what's wrong with spending money. Just have to make informed decisions.
>>333225857
Because the other stuff gets higher quality with higher price (except maybe the shoes).
Gaming-related hardware stuff like keyboards, mouses, only get a GAMING tag for more money but it's still a cheap product (usually)
>expensive watch can tell more time
>expensive headphones have a wider audio range
>expensive shoes last longer
If anything, expensive "gaming" keyboard are of a lower quality than cheapo shit.
>>333225857
Are there anygoodchinkshit mech keyboard? They usually shit out cheap stuff with "decent" quality
>>333226983
>expensive headphones have a wider audio range
no they don't.
>>333225857
literally none of those things are okay you fucking pleb
>>333227132
Varmilo makes good boards.
>>333225857
>Implying any of these things are ok
WHAT
A
PLEB
>>333227181
but yes though and more accurate frequency response as well
>>333227132
Check out the cheap chinese shit general on /g/
You can find any cheap chink shit you'll need on there.
>>333225857
So buy an old IBM mechanical at a thrift and you'll have one of the best keyboards ever built. No argument necessary.
>>333225857
There are different price 'barriers'.
I'm not sure how it's in dollarydoos, but if you want something like great mechanical watch you won't pay more than ~280$. Over that and you are paying for shit like goldened gears or god knows what else.
Headphones are really tricky. If you look or read up long enough you can find some 25$ that play better than than 200$ pair. I haven't followed market in longass time, but I remember some really expensive models being valid buys as well, but only if you really love music and have dedicated hardware to play it on.
If you really want your shoes to not make your feet sweat really badly in summer or be waterproof you have to get that money out.
10$ keyboard will do anything you want it to do. Anything htat costs more is either meme or has useless shit like led backlightened panels. If you are lazy, I could understand, if you paid more for keyboard with build in flash memory and deidacted buttons for some macors, but that's about it.
Bassically if something has GAYMING written on it, there is 99% of chance it's overpriced shit.
tl;dr dont overpay for memes or other useless features
>>333227181
They're higher fidelity capable of producing a wider range of frequencies and they're also more accurate to the original source.
Buying gamer-branded shit is always a mistake because unless it's a product that fills a niche, like MMO mice, they're invariably shit quality articles sold at a premium to retards. That said, peripherals are the means through which one interacts with their computer, and if you have an expensive PC you're only compromising your own experience by not getting an appropriately expensive monitor/mouse/keyboard/soundcard/headphones/etc.
Broad example: If you spent more than 1000 dollars on your build you owe it to yourself to get an IPS/120Hz monitor.
>>333227394
It is not easy to find cheap model Ms anymore at thrift stores, every thrift I go to I find a Dell quiet touch that's has unfrequently used keycap removed when some /g/entleman to check if it's buckling spring or mech. That being said I just found a RAZR chroma with greens for 5 dollars at Goodwill, feels good man.
My mx blue chocmini is better though
>>333227362
Yea I know but they usually discuss phones and fucking micro SD cards
I though /v/ has more experience on gaymen keyboards
>>333227308
as long as a headphone covers 20hz-20khz it covers the human spectrum of hearing. anything else is marketing wank.
>>333226983
>>expensive watch can tell more time
>>333225857
No one knows what you buy if you don't tell them.
>>333227692
>>333227308
And here come the retarded audiophiles
>>333227692
being more expensive doesn't automatically make something more accurate. many headphones (even expensive ones) don't aim for "natural" accuracy in the first place.
there are cheap headphones that sound really good and expensive headphones that sound really bad. it's been a pretty well mastered technology for decades.
>>333228152
It's literally facts though backed up by engineering.
Whether you feel the higher price is justified or not is completely irrelevant because there is a difference between your 30 dollar skullcandy headphones or 50 dollar Logitech headset and a quality pair of AKGs or Sennheisers

I don't know how much difference I'd hear beyond $300 headphones, but I do love how much more detail I can hear with my AKG K702s. I'd probably buy another $350 headphone in a couple years since apparently AKGs are chinkshit now (detachable cable is nice though without having a shit build quality like the HD600).
>>333230541
Oh no nothing wrong with the headphones. I bought my AKG K712s when they were 400 and it's one of the best decisions I've made.

The last one is true. Nobody really needs a 120hz monitor. 60hz is adequate.
>>333229364
Get a cheap small SSD to put your OS on.
>>333229364
>SSDs are pointless at the moment
1TB SSDs are pointless, but I don't think I could live without a 120GB / 240GB boot drive anymore. Setting aside ~$100 for an SSD in any build is pretty much a given now. I'd never not get an SSD, unless I buy a laptop (just so I can buy the SSD myself at a non-bloated price).
>use things on a daily basis
>let's buy the cheap shit
Though a watch is debatable on price considering $100 is still a cheap watch. Plus you most likely have a smart phone

bronze vs gold is minimal but paying top dollar for platinum is truly a meme. You should be more focused on the price/warranty side of things and less on the rating. one RMA of your product already defeats the bronze/gold argument

>>333225857
The point isn't that you're buying expensive peripherals, the point is that you're buying expensive peripherals that are just cheap peripherals with a bigger price tag. $100 membrane keyboards, for example.
>>333225857
>Not only does it feel more comfortable, it has more utility and can improve your gaming skills.
The only thing you should be buying are things that are durable.
But when it comes to gaming, more expensive != durable 99% of the time.
All of those "gamer" keyboards, mice, headsets break within 2 months and cost 3 times as much as regular versions of them.
>>333234538
yes the "gamer" stuff is crap
but also just because a good built mechanical keyboard has some lights on it doesn't automatically make it gamer crap
headsets are a scam though, the only right move is to get good headphones and a cheap clip on or desktop mic
There's very little in the gaming industry worth paying more money for. Most are just low quality items with logos slapped on them.

Shoes are definitely something you want to spend a little more money on. I've bought cheap $30 shoes from Walmart only to have the soles tear and collapse in less than six months.

Honestly who fucking has a wrist watch nowadays anyway? Other than fags that have money to spend and use it as an accessory.
I bought some cheap Logitech keyboard for $20.
If I played some kind of competitive game regularly and got serious about I'd buy a proper keyboard as I'd probably notice the difference.
Dudes used to be sick at online shooters on their old white plastic stock keyboards, so it's not like people can't get good with shit hardware though.
My mouse is also a HP mouse that cost $15.
But my Fightstick for fighting games cost me $300 total after all buttons and parts.

I buy runners that double as non-slip shoes and wear them for both work and casual wear and they usually get worn by the six month mark. Although it takes more then a few holes to stop me from wearing them. Is 30$ bi-yearly not something I should be spending on shoes I use up to 12 hours a day?

I wore velcro shoes up until like third grade. I had no idea there was a stigma associated with them. I bought a cheap pair last year just to workout in and even my wife gave me an awkward stare. Said I'd look like an old man wearing them.
Why does velcro get such a bad rep?
I bought Sennheiser HD 598 and ATH-M50xs because everyone raves about them, and I can't tell a difference in the quality between them and my $5 earbuds.
For keyboards though, after years of going through $10 ones every 2-3 months, I finally bought one a little more expensive and have been using it for 6 years now.

Holy fuck no anon do you even use a mouse? Keyboard is hit n miss for quality, personally I've now been using my mechanical with cherry reds for three years.Is it 'better'? Build quality, yes. Functionality? No. Preference? Yup, I like it.
A mouse on the other hand is a whole other issue. I've tried cheap mice (Sub $40) and never once have I felt like it was a decent product. Either having input delay, a poor sensor, to simply feeling bad to hold.
Razer makes one good product, that's their mice. There are other good brands, Logitech used to be fantastic, but for now my passed two Razer's have served well, I see no reason to change that.

Next you're going to tell me studio monitors arn't more accurate than your average consumer speaker.

Mine's an old hand me down, wore by my great uncle, then my grandfather, then my dad and then down to me. It's nothing especially fancy, but it's got some history.
>>333239598
Haven't had a spill since the last, I haven't kept anything near my keyboard for that to happen lol.
>>333238548
>once or twice, or even more a year
What the fuck do you do to your keyboards? I'm still using the one that came with the last prebuilt PC I ever bought, and it still works just as well today as it did in fucking 2003.
>>333238719
>Implying wrist watches are a bad thing
I require one as I work in the medical field. Taking pulses, blood pressures and measuring medications via IV lines on a critical patient ALL while in the back of an ambulance isn't a easy thing.
>>333239870
>Taking pulses, blood pressures and measuring medications via IV lines
I understand pulses, but how does a watch help with the other two?

But do the inner workings of a digital watch make my cock hard as a rock?
I don't think so.
My keyboard is at least 8 years old, and he costed something like 15 bucks when i bought him
He looks like dogshit and has dead insects, clipped nails, chunks of food, a fuckton of dust, and more, i never cleaned the fucker after all
I'm thinking about putting him down and finally getting a mechanical keyboard

>10$ keyboard will do anything you want it to do.
A $10 Keyboard won't let you press more than 3 keys at once and process all the inputs, look into multi-key and N-Key rollover and come back when you actually have any idea what you're talking about.

If you're prone to foot issues, there is an actual reason for that. I'm somewhat flat-footed by I just wear new balance, merrell and onitsuka tiger (ultimate 81s only) so I'm fine with those. My work boots are either merrell or Bates.

You might have better luck than me. Mine weren't runners or tennis shoes, but a type of slip on business shoes. I've found that I spend between $60 to $90 a year if I kept buy those whereas the $80 non-Walmart brand I bought lasts me about two to three years.

Problem is that all of those are actually real. Video games don't exist outside of a box and a disc sometimes so they shouldn't be worth anything at all

I bought my keyboard a minimum of 15 years ago, used for $2. It still works fucking perfectly.

This is the greatest webm I've ever seen. Thank you for posting it, Anon.
>tfw been using some cheap ass keyboard for over 7 years now
Some of the letters on the keys have worn off but it still works perfectly.
Using a MX518 as my mouse and it's about as old as this keyboard and still working fine
Expensive watches are a status symbol and are acceptable as such.
Middle priced headphones have a distinctive advantage over very low budget ones.
Shoes are over priced like all brand clothing made in sweat shops and it's near impossible to find a decent pair for that low of a price.
Expensive keyboards are mostly a meme.
>>333240642
There's actually more of them, but I forgot to save them. All taken from this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3eeHarkOw4
It's some sexy stuff.
I have a Corsair K70 Cherry Reds keyboard and a Corsair Scimitar mouse.
Both were amazingly worthwhile purchases.
>>333231012
I can understand all the others but the shoes

>Needing shoes
>Not just going bare foot or using basic foot wraps
Once you develop callouses it's actually really quite comfortable. Humans have been going mostly bare foot for the majority of our existence, the idea that you need shoes otherwise you will get "horrible pain" is a meme perpetuated by big brands.
>>333240774
Not good enough. Literally need to get cotton swabs with rubbing alcohol to remove all traces of residue and have it looking spanking new.
>>333238803
>and wear them for both work and casual wear and they usually get worn by the six month mark.
You're making a mistake wearing a single pair constantly. Buy 2 pairs and switch them regularly, they'll last way WAY beyond the year you'd expect. The materials in shoes need a bit of time off to return to shape, giving them a break vastly increases their lifespan.
I usually buy shoes ~$60 and get 5-10 years out of them...

But no one forbids you from buying razer keyboards. Just don't brag about it and you'll be fine.
I am interested in the Cherry MX silent keyboard that recently came out. My current MX blue are just so fucking loud and I feel guilty typing at night.

A kid as young as 10 can start grasping simple programming as easily an anyone. However, you will almost invariably doom them to being a complete nerd if you do that.
>>333225857
If you spend triple digits on any of those things then you're an idiot and you have no taste. When I say you have no taste, I don't mean that in a typical pejorative /v/ sense, I mean that you are legitimately a fraud with no respect for quality or decency who buys riced out dogshit.
>Nobody has made a functional Metro 2033 watch with functioning gas mask timer
Goddammit I would so buy one if they existed.
>>333242485
What in the actual hell are you rambling on about - do you confidently strut around wearing a $10 watch and sneakers lmfao? Tell me, what are you going to purchase at your local wal-mart that exemplifies "quality" and doesn't make you look like a fedora-tipping troglodyte or blue collar scumfuck?
> I mean that you are legitimately a fraud with no respect for quality or decency who buys riced out dogshit.
Yes, because your $25 fedora is a hall-mark of quality, lol.
>>333243298

And what would "any of those things" entail, because it sounds like you're referring to every item mentioned in the OP. If you were competent enough, then you would have written "gaming peripherals."
But what else should I have expected from a jaded basement dweller?

expensive clothes is just a fucking illusion
you can dress great with only 40 dollars
expensive peripherals (you have to choose good) gave your more comfort, ergonomics and performance. It also diminish the problems associated to modern computer use like RMI and Carpal Tunnel

Quality pants that wont tear in two months alone are over $40
Even a pair of chucks is $40
A good looking shirt is probably $30 and jackets are like $50
My keyboard has multiple mayo spills and is full of cigarette ash. Still works.
>>333252257
>mayo spills
What
>>333252390
Mayo seeping out the side of sandwiches. Once it's hit between 2 keys it's gone forever.
>>333238719

I don't own a watch, because my mobile phone already shows the time.
I dont buy neck chains, why would I buy heavier, more overpriced wrist bracelets?
>>333225857
I spend all day in front of a computer, and I'd say the complete opposite.
I have an expensive watch, an expensive pair of headphones, two expensive pairs of shoes, but my keyboard is some old shitty HP generic keyboard from the early 2000's, and it has not impacted my gaming performance at all.
I used to have a mechanical keyboard because I bought into the hype, and sure it felt satisfying to type with but I didn't really get the satisfaction that money should have gotten me, as opposed to my pleasure derived from my watch, headphones and shoes.
My only peeve is that my M-key is a little dodgy and requires a slightly harder push to register, otherwise I'm completely happy with my piece of shit keyboard.
Besides, if some type of peripheral device could improve your gaming skills, it would be a mouse with a good sensor to improve your aiming abilities and a good pair of headphones in order to hear positional sounds better, not a keyboard.

Blank keyboards are hipster shit because they aren't functional for productivity work outside of the fewer than 1% who use Dvorak and don't fucking use complex nested shortcuts.
You didn't even buy a "real man's keyboard" (Das keyboard).
You bought a wannabe OF a hipster keyboard.... a razer one at that.
