PC Gamers: Does your gaming setup brand match?

[Josh378]

Do you like to have all Corsair or all Logitech or any other brandname? Even though you know that Logitech may have the better Mouse than Corsair or steelseries might have the better keyboard than Logitech?

I know people prefer to have one program interface to interact with all devices, but are you the one person brand name or will you mix it up to get the best of everything? Your thoughts?

 

[BurstLayer]

My keyboard and mouse are different brands (corsair and logitech), everything inside of my computer that has RGB is asus so kinda I guess

 

[karnage10]

I had this thought a while ago. My PC is everything brand different except the MOBO, monitor and GPU which are Asus. The rest are different.
Mouse corsair, keyboard oscar, headphones kinston, controller microsoft, ram g skill (not sure).my sound system when it worked was logitech. My Tv is samsung.

 

[Conkerkid11]

Nope.

Logitech mouse, Corsair keyboard, AKG headphones...

And no reason for me to go all Logitech or all Corsair or something, because their first-party software is always shit.

 

[Rizific]

I have corsair keyboard, case, mouse pad, and a logitech mouse.

 

[Deleted member 7948]

Nah, I checked here and nothing matches, even with 3 mouses.

 

[Trieu]

All different brands. Same for my PC hardware. If I think about it actually nothing matches at all. Also come to think of it I need a new mousepad, because mine lost this comfortable-but-still-fast glide feeling you get with new big cloth mousepads.

I usually go for price/performance and I have zero brand loyalty

 

[Valiant]

Both mouse and keyboard are logitech.

 

[Absent Uncle]

Corsair keyboard, ram, psu and case. Not really intentional, just turned out that way. Rest is various brands.

 

[Hace]

i love brands

 

[bananas]

Logitech mouse, keyboard and headset

 

[XR.]

No, I have mixed brands across the board. I don't use peripherals that require a program (and I intend to keep it that way) so it doesn't really matter to me.

I have a Corsair keyboard and PSU though, so I guess that's a convenient combo!

 

[KillLaCam]

A little bit. I've only owned Alienware laptops and my accessories and things have only been Razer.

 

[Beast780]

I only buy EVGA graphic cards, but that's my only brand affinity.

 

[ShadowAUS]

I used to try and get matching everything but it always ended up being quite a bit more expensive, so I just don't bother anymore. Nothing matches in my current setup except for my Be Quiet! PSU and Case. Asus MoBo, Corsair RAM, Gigabyte GPU, Ducky Keyboard, Logitech Mouse, Audio-Technica Headset and AOC Monitors.

 

[Aeana]

I don't know or care what the brand of a lot of my stuff is. I do the research when I buy individual components, and dump the info soon after.

 

[Tbm24]

I guess somewhat, I have Razer keyboard, mouse, headset, and light up mousepad. Collected over the course of 3 years.

I like it.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Every piece of my PC is different. I'm all about making Frankenstein Monster.

 

[ClutchAnderson]

Nope it's mostly all different. The only things that match are my AIO and my case fans which are Thermaltake.

 

[DJ_Lae]

Not at all.

Combination of Asus (motherboard & video card), EVGA (power supply), Corsair (liquid cooler and RAM) and Western Digital (HDD) and Samsung (SSD) in a Fractal case.

Peripherals are just as mismatched, Logitech and Coolermaster and Dell.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

No, and I think it's weird when people do match all one brand. Unless by some miracle one company managed to produce all the best components, but that's never been the case.

 

[c0Zm1c]

I tend to stick with brands I've grown to trust will at least offer decent peripherals/components but I don't make a point of having them all be the same. I just want them to be good and to last.

 

[Fularu]

Alienware monitor
Logitech mouse (Can't live without my G602)
Logitech headset (Artemis G933)
Corsaire mousepad
Corsaire mechanical keyboard (K95-RGB)

It's not all over the place but it's still relatively varried

 

[Clowns]

I have an Amazon keyboard, a Kensington mouse, an EVGA GPU in a prebuilt Acer, and Astro headphones.

Yes it's a perfect match I have strong brand loyalty.

 

[low-G]

No, that would be dumb.

There's not really any brands I avoid either, except Asus whom I had a bad BIOS experience with last build.

I notice some people do it and it's super weird. Actually they're probably just guerilla marketers.

 

[Deleted member 23212]

Nope, I get pieces as I go along, the only reason I'd so to do that is if they were in a bundle or something.

 

[Lashley]

no, logitech mouse, hyper x rgb keyboard

 

[newmoneytrash]

my mouse and keyboard are both logitech but it wasn't intentional

 

[Yarbskoo]

No. No brand has the best of everything. Corsair keyboard, Logitech mouse, Acer monitor, Sony headphones.

 

[GrrImAFridge]

I have a Gigabyte motherboard and keyboard (Z390 Gaming X and K85), a Corsair PSU and RAM (HX1000i and 2x 16GB Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200), and an NZXT case and CPU cooler (H630 and Kraken X62). Everything else is a different brand.

 

[blackMamba1187]

Nope. All over the place, really. Razer mechanical keyboard. 2x Logitech mouses & 1 wireless keyboard. Corsair speakers and water cooler. Alienware & Asus monitors. Asus Motherbard & graphics card. EVGA power supply. HyperX & SteelSeries headphones.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Do people do this?

 

[Pegasus Actual]

Lol no what am I sponsored or something?

 

[Zafir]

Nope. The most amount of parts I have from the same company is 3, my motherboard, gpu and monitor are all gigabyte. Even that's just a coincidence though. The monitor happened to have the specs I wanted when I was looking for one, the x570 motherboards from gigabyte are widely considered some of the best and the gigabyte 1080ti I bought was on a really good sale just before the 20xx cards came out.

The only tangible reason I can see someone wanting to have parts all from the same company is RGB I guess. My PC sits in a place I can't see the side of it though, so I can't say I care too much about that, lol.

 

[Dukie85]

All my parts are pretty much different. Rosewill mechanical keyboard, cheap Zelotes mouse, Asus mobo, Corsair PSU/liquid CPU cooler, G.Skill RAM, Powercolor GPU.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

No.

But I do have more Corsair stuff than anything else due to how sales lined up.

Corsair case, cooler, keyboard, RAM, fans.

 

[Alvis]

Are we talking about external devices only? Anyway:

Keyboard and mouse are both Logitech (G403 and G413). Speakers are also Logitech (Z200)
Headphones are HyperX (Cloud Alpha)
My monitor is AOC (G2590PX)
My case is Corsair (Carbide Alpha)
My motherboard is Asus (Maximus VIII Hero)
My GPU is Gigabyte (1070)
RAM is Kingston (16 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 CL15)
My PSU is EVGA
SSDs are both Samsung, HDDs are... Seagate and Toshiba I believe

 

[AaronMT]

No. Mainly all Corsair components except for a Logitech mouse.

 

[Kurt Russell]

I don't really care about brands (aside from checking if X or Y will last longer, that sort of stuff). So no, my stuff doesn't match at all. I have an LG monitor, Logitech mouse, local brand keyboard, Asrock mobo, HyperX headphones, G.Skill RAM, etc.

 

[Chainshada]

Nope

Corsair mouse and headphones
Razer keyboard
NZXT case

Internals are all whatever brand I could get cheapest when i bought them.

 

[HououinKyouma00]

Not at all lol.

My mouse is Logitech G602, my keyboard is that Reddragon cheap ten keyless, my mousepad is a plain unbranded 30x12", and my headset is Steelseries Arctis. I used to be all Razer for awhile until my current build (sold my peripherals with my old PC).
Hardware wise it's all over the place as well being a mixture of Gigabyte, and MSI.

 

[ghostcrew]

Nope, not at all. It's a complete mix. I use a Razor mouse but an Apple keyboard and a Microsoft headset. I don't care for matching it all up really.

 

[s3ltz3r]

Monitor BenQ, keyboard is Logitech, mouse is Logitech, NZXT case. I don't really care about the other stuff, it's all mixed and matched.

 

[jotun?]

Acer monitor
Dell monitor
Logitech speakers
Logitech headset
Rosewill keyboard
Steelseries mouse
fUnc mousepad
Corsair case
Corsair CPU cooler
Asus mobo
G.Skill RAM
Crucial SSD
WD SSD
WD HDDs
EVGA GPU
Intel CPU

A few repeats, but just by coincidence

 

[ss_lemonade]

Nope, don't really have time to care. If I see a good deal on something I want/need, then I get it.

 

[finalflame]

...no?

 

[Massicot]

Nope. Most of my internals are Asus, but I have a Razer keyboard, Logitech Mouse, and Corsair Case.

The only thing I'd really consider changing is the keyboard. My first Razer product and it already has keys jamming or double-hitting. Will probably swap with Logitech for that too.

 

[TheMadTitan]

Got an Xbox One controller, PS4 controller, Razer Naga MMO Mouse, Logitech M560 mouse when I want to do regular stuff, a Keychron K1 mechanical keyboard, Corsair Carbide 400c case, Gigabyte motherboard, Ryzen processor, Zotac GTX graphics card, and some RAM I don't remember.

None of my shit matches.

 

[SirNinja]

Bookmarking this thread for when someone (usually from Era) accuses Era of being brand-worshipers. Not that that narrative ever had much weight in the first place.

Myself, I currently have only two PC components from the same company. And that's probably going to change soon when I get a new mouse.

 

[$10 Bagel]

kB/m are Logitech
I think mobo and gpu are asus

Everything else is different
