items You don’t need to break the bank to play your favorite immersive single player games or to compete with the best in your preferred multiplayer games. I’ve used and owned dozens of PC gaming related items and I’ve never had to give up an arm or leg to...
I’ve gone through many headsets and while these are a little pricey, they’re worth the cost. They’re somewhat the mainstream choice, but honestly it’s for good reason. Whether you want to play by yourself and be immersed in fantasy lands or futuristi...
A50 Wireless Gaming Headset + Base Station with PLAYSYNC AUDIO
These ones are great for on a budget. The sound is heavily customizable with the app, and they can thump. The mic isn’t the greatest, but it will get the job done. It technically has two mics, one attachable and you’re still able to be heard without ...
PLYR (2022) - Wireless Gaming Headset with Microphone - Skullcandy
Honestly to keep it short, I’ve stuck with RAZR for most of the keyboards I’ve used over the years. They’ve never done me wrong and I’ve never had a complaint about any of them, they all feel great and feel responsive.

I love this mouse by far the most of all I’ve used. I have a preference for small mouses that are easy to click, and this is perfect. It takes one triple A battery, and it lasts forever. I’ve had mine for 5 years and changed the battery 3 times. It’s...
Logitech G305 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse
I am an owner of multiple Skytech’s Gaming PCs. I love this pre-built PC company. None have ever failed me. I’ve only ever had to replace an SSD on one in 6 years. They come with quality brand parts. You get exactly what is advertised. If you’re not ...
Skytech Gaming
I’m not a fan of “traditional” gaming chairs. After all, a chair doesn’t need the gaming label, it just needs to comfortable and provide support. This chair is amazing, and it feels like it’s really difficult to have bad posture sitting in it. If min...
X-Chair
These are probably my personal favorite due to the color and mid-range price. Turtle Beaches are always easily accessible and that’s what I go for. Highly recommend considering these as a daily use headset. I think they’re also super comfortable even...
Stealth 600 Headset (Gen 3) / Xbox / Purple
I am a fighting game fanatic and these are the games I always hit high ranks in. This controller feels so satisfying to play with in any of your favorite fighting game. I play a plethora of them, and have used this on probably nearly 30 fighting game...
All-Button Arcade Controller for Fighting Games on PS5 and PC ...
Although not directly a gaming “need”, it’s always a good idea to keep your PC protected and to have a software that can help you out of a bind. No need to get fancy I’ve used this one forever and rarely have had virus issues and if so, this service ...
McAfee Total Protection 2025 | Antivirus software
No need to get all detailed and wordy on this one. Having a good VPN to insure security is a must and this one gets the job done.
NordVPN
If you’re willing to spend the money and don’t already have one, switching to an NVMe SSD as long as your motherboard is compatible(most are these days) is a good idea. They speed up loading times, typically come with a helpful app to view the health...
250GB WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe™ SSD - Sandisk
I have two monitors, one more higher end and one more budget. This is the budget choice, but it’s still a hard hitter. For beginners this monitor is perfect, and every game you play will look gorgeous on it. The 1ms response time is a huge plus for c...
27" UltraGear™ Gaming Monitor - 27GL850-B
This one in the 28inch version is my main monitor, especially for single player games. It has 4K UHS res and everything looks beautiful on it. It has fun smart features like a Gaming Hub ready to go when you plug it in and also comes with a remote. I...
32” Odyssey G70B 4K UHD IPS 144Hz 1ms(GtG) with G-Sync Gaming Monitor
While “gaming” chairs aren’t my go-to, I have owned this one and I did like it. It was comfortable and had reclining capabilities and got the job done well.
GTRACING GTWD-200 Gaming Chair with Footrest, Adjustable Height, and R
I have the 2060 version of this PC and it still plays everything well, I’ve only ever had to replace an SSD on it, otherwise it has lasted me 5 years now and I highly recommend for beginners looking for a decent prebuilt to see if it’s for you.
Blaze II - Skytech Gaming
I do own one pair of gaming earbuds. They’re nice for single player and they are obviously lighter and more convenient. These sound great and are an amazing option if you don’t like over-ear or are looking to spend less and still have a good sound ex...
