Why not make your hours of gaming as comfortable as possible?

“Ergonomics” has become a… conflicted word over the past few years. Not just in gaming, but across all spheres: no one can really agree on what “ergonomics” actually entails or what hard science can back it up. Today let’s take a step back and focus on something that is less divisive and more universal: comfort.

It doesn’t matter if you’re spending every waking moment grinding Helldivers 2, or still slowly chipping away at Baldur’s Gate III one hour at a time after work, every type of gamer wants to be comfortable while enjoying their favourite hobby.

For a while there gaming mouses were looking more and more alien with countless protruding angles and odd shapes. Thankfully Redragon is still making the smooth, curved body that fits into your hand perfectly.

That great shell houses seven programmable buttons and a DPI all the way up to 12 400. Having access to such a high DPI, and all the lower settings, is another overlooked part of dialling in your setup to be as comfortable as possible, so take advantage of it here.

Put aside the extremely ideology from esports pros where some use mousepads that cover their entire desks, while others crank the sensitivity to max and play at high levels on a space smaller than a coaster.

A larger mousepad simply gives you more room to settle into a comfortable position. With a silk-processed cloth for both speed and comfort, on top of a natural processed foam rubber core, this gaming pad gives you everything you need to play how you want while being as comfortable as possible. There’s really no beating it, especially at that price.

If you’re reading this, this is also your cue to wash your mousepad. The ARCHELON L Gaming Pad makes this easy with its waterproofing and easy-to-clean design and your mousepad may not. 

K585 DITI ELITE PRO RGB 40% Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Those who don’t pay much attention to the keyboard scene may be confused by the push towards smaller and smaller keyboards over the last few years. There’s many reasons for this but the main one is comfort. The less space between your keyboard and mouse hands the better as this posture reduces fatigue and the stresses on your joints.

The K585 DITI ELITE PRO RGB takes this philosophy to the extreme, giving you everything you need to game on a standard keyboard, along with seven programmable macro keys.

And hey if you’ve been given one or two warnings about talking smack in the global chat, it will be much harder to break the TOS without a full set of keys.
