Don’t spend more on a mic unless you have to

I’ve been hilariously forcing Andy to use a bunch of cheap rubbish I find on Amazon and AliExpress recently, and you know what, sometimes that has meant we find the odd diamond in the rough.

Unless you really need to sound like a late night DJ all the time, and just want a simple desktop microphone for meetings and Discord, then this is all you ever need spend on a PC mic.

If you thought Hall effect keyboards were expensive…

Allow me to dissuade you from that particular misapprehension, because those magnetic switches don’t automatically have to mean a gaming keyboard that stretches into triple figures.

In fact, this one won’t even cost more than $50. I’ve used the Gamakay NS68 a bunch in the office and though it could do with some extra damping in there to give you a more satisfying thock it’s an impressive wee board for the little more you’ll spend on it.

Everyone’s got a bottom…

…but not everyone can afford a Secretlab Titan Evo.

This is where the best budget gaming chair comes into its own. The Corsair TC100 Relaxed has been our favorite budget seat for so long you’d think our review chair would be a pile of ripped cloth and a few castors by now. Not so, the chair still looks as good today as it did when we first put it together in the office.

And now that it’s getting close to its cheapest ever price, at just $160 at Newegg, it’s a whole lot of gaming chair for not a lot of cash. Especially when you consider the Secretlab will set you back near $600.

You always need more space

It’s as true if you have a gaming laptop with just a 512 GB SSD or a big rig with a couple terabytes already installed; you always need more storage space. Games aren’t getting any smaller, after all!

My favorite deal so far…
