Peripherals
Let's start with the essentials for any gamer's setup: peripherals. A keyboard, mouse, monitor, and good headphones are must-haves. While personal preference plays a role, some key features will help you make the right choice.
Gaming Mice

Choosing a gaming mouse can be simplified; key factors are DPI sensitivity and programmable buttons. For FPS players, lighter mice with higher speed and sensitivity are ideal, while MMORPG fans will appreciate mice with more buttons. The Razer Naga Pro Wireless, with up to 20 buttons, is a prime example!
Keyboards

Similar to mice, comfort and responsiveness are crucial. Mechanical keyboards are superior to membrane keyboards, offering superior responsiveness. Some models even allow adjustable keypress force – a gamer's dream! Another advantage? Easily replaceable keys for customization.
Headphones

Sound quality is paramount, especially for competitive shooters where precise audio cues are vital for success in games like Escape from Tarkov. Microphone quality is also important, especially if a separate microphone isn't already available.
Monitors

Full HD remains common, but upgrading to 2K or 4K delivers a stunning visual experience. Consider refresh rate (anything above 60Hz is a good start) and your PC's capabilities to ensure a balanced setup.
Stylish Case

A PC is a statement piece, so a stylish case is a great gift. Consider the size (to accommodate cooling systems) and features like glass panels or built-in lighting.
Lights

Consoles
