Gear and Peripherals for PC Gaming

This laptop has the newest generation of hardware and performs better than some of the most expensive models we’ve tested.

This Acer model offers great performance for a great price, but its graphics card may not provide enough VRAM to play new games for as long as our other picks.

The Razer Basilisk V3 is comfortable for most hand sizes and grip styles, and it offers plenty of buttons, excellent build quality, and customizable RGB and underglow lighting.

The Basilisk V3 Pro is the best wireless gaming mouse thanks to its comfortable shape, well-placed buttons, optical switches, and decent battery life.

The HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 offers clear and impressive sound quality seldom found in headsets at this price, and it’s comfortable enough for most people to wear for hours on end without complaint.

The HyperX Cloud III Wireless is a great choice if you prefer a wireless option.

This wired keyboard has smooth, quiet keys, hot-swappable switches, and a comfortable, compact layout. It’s also easy to customize with or without software.

This wireless keyboard can connect via Bluetooth or USB-A dongle, and it offers lengthy battery life. Logitech’s companion software is also the most user-friendly among our picks.

If you game, but also need to keep your day job, the ProArt PA348CGV is a great compromise. It’s the perfect monitor to let your tabs roam free during the day, and then run Baldur’s Gate 3 at 120 Hz after hours.

The HP Omen 27k has a sharp 4K display that looks great at 144 Hz. It has HDMI 2.1, so the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X can hit their full 120 Hz refresh rate capabilities, and you can also hook up a laptop via USB-C.

This OLED TV provides low input lag and the most comprehensive set of gaming features, as well as excellent overall picture quality.

This LCD/LED TV lacks the higher-end performance tech you get in our other picks, but it still renders a pleasing image and supports the alternative timing modes that gamers desire.

This webcam offers subject tracking and other features that are typically found only in more expensive models. The image quality is excellent, as is the included software.

If you need a webcam but don’t want to spend a lot of money, this model is a great option. It's small and solidly built, and it delivered respectable footage without any fuss.

Microsoft’s controller is comfortable to hold, and it benefits from built-in Windows support—simply plug it in, and it works with just about any game that supports a controller.

If you like playing old games and want a more authentic experience, this is the best of the many SNES-style controller replicas.

This is one of the most adjustable chairs available—anyone can make the Gesture comfortable, regardless of their height or size. And it’s built to last.

One of the most comfortable chairs under $500 we tested, and highly adjustable.

Offering the best combination of stability, operation, features, and design options, Uplift’s standing desk is notable for a lack of major flaws.

For those who want a cheaper alternative, the Jarvis standing desk has a wide range of adjustable heights, though it’s slightly less stable than other desks we’ve tested.

The Topo gives your feet varied terrain, encouraging movement and making standing less tedious. It’s also the easiest mat to move when you’re switching positions.

The Hydro Flask is an insulated steel bottle that’s easy to add ice to, pleasant to sip from, and simple to carry. And it was completely leakproof in our tests.

Easier to use than a sports cap, the spout on this bottle is easy to drink from, and the flip lid stays secure and out of your face. The bottle’s wide mouth lets you easily add ice and supplements, too.
