So pretty much, I'm looking for a new keyboard/headset since my current is literally broke.


CURRENTLY SELECTED:
Steelseries Apex 7 TKL (Keyboard)
Blue Yeti (Microphone)
HyperX Cloud II (Headset)


I need:
Keyboard (Mechanical) (~100)
Microphone (~100)
Headset (~100)


I prefer:
Durable items, stuff that does not easily break.
If mechanical, the keys should be available and be replaceable.
Anything above $150 won't interest me.

Mic needs to have sound canceling so it doesn't pick up the weird noise like my current headset.

Headset can be with/without a mic but comfortable to wear for 8 hours.

HyperX Cloud II's work great and are durable just don't know if you want a more studio style of a headset

Would suggest this . Comes with great switches i currently use the Aqua ones. I prefer them by a lot to the MX Browns.

I just recommended the Samson Q2U (microphone) to someone on this thread here that you might want to take a look at.

A short analysis of my message to that user:
The Blue Yeti is a cardioid condenser microphone. It's going to pick up A LOT of background noise. So if your main problem is background noise then you would want the opposite of a condenser, which would be a dynamic. You may have seen many streamers and YouTubers use the Shure SM7B which is a dynamic microphone. The polar pattern is so much smaller than a condenser so you'd have to be literally right on top of that microphone to work. I do not recommend the SM7B for this but it definitely gives you an idea of what different type of microphones there are. If this is the case for you then I recommend something small to start with and better upgradability down the line, which the Samson Q2U would be great for. Having both USB (plug & play) and XLR (advanced usage) as inputs it could be a microphone that lasts for a while.

This beats almost everything you want in a good microphone. Noise cancellation (with the downfall of having to speak directly into it), but it has a lot of upgradability paths and is very cheap for what it is. The microphone is metal from what I've read or heard about online which makes the microphone shell good quality.

I recommend putting some extra money on the side, maybe around $15-20 for a boom arm and a pop filter for quality maintenance. The boom arm helps reduce as much sound from key typing (additional to the fact that the microphone is also super insensitive) and the pop filter will help reduce the gust of air when you produce consonants.

Whilst I know this video is about the Blue Yeti microphone, but if you watch on the timestamp at this link you can see a sound test/demonstration of the benefits of having a "studio" microphone stand.

Hope I helped.

Okay so like I think I'm decent at this

Keyboard:
The razer new 60% is solid, or a ducky tbh.
If you want a fullsize, a corsair K70 is always a way to go. HyperX FPS is solid but less customizing.


Microphone: Blue yeti or at2020

Headset: OH BOY SO MUCH COMPETITON
ignore what everyone says and do your own research.

I’d suggest a blue yeti - I have one and it has beautiful sound quality and great detection and setup options.
