    as title - is it any good? theres a pack on scna with mouse + headset and that keyboard that seems ok.


    thoughts? reviews?

    my own ms internet keyboard has died and my spare G15 is on its legs (and too wide for my desktop)

    Purely as no one else has contributed to your thread I will add my thoughts. You do seem to get a lot for the bargain price and I do question the quality of the individual parts at this price point. But on the other hand I have had gear off Coolermaster before and build quality has always been excellent.

    Does not help you much I appreciate that but I think you would need an opinion off someone who had purchased this to really help you out.

    thank you! the sme is with the AIO I bought - an MSI dragon , no reviews anywhere , and its cheap - but opening the box its a rebranded ASETEK 550LC - so its basically a corsair H50 , for £30!


    might just take a punt and give it ago I think

    I bought one for my daughter and she is using the keyboard daily and likes it a lot.

    One slight thing that would annoy me is you have to turn the back lighting on every time you fire up the pc and if you don't the keys are very hard to see but it's only a minor inconvenience and she hasn't moaned about it.

    The mouse feels nice too although this stays with her portable mini itx setup as she already owns a mionix 3200 which she loves.

    It's priced as a budget set really but I don't feel that it feels like one.

    Not sure about the headset as we bought the mouse and keyboard set which is on today only for £22.79.

    cheers guys - the headset has reasonable reviews as well ; scan sem to be the only place selling the bundle though.

    Tempted to get my missus one now and my son can have the mouse.

    Dammit had no intention of buying anything today and now just bought a keyboard and mouse plus a 25 pack of cd's so I'd break the £20 +vat minimum for free delivery. :)

    I'm trying to stop myself pulling the trigger on a MSI GTX 970.

    I always upgrade every two series but my 670 is still plodding away fine.

    Mind you it would mean my daughter gets an upgrade from her 560ti.

    Arrived just now and plugged in -- worth the normal retail price let alone what I paid - especially the look on my son's face when I said "press scroll lock" and the whole thing lit up!
