The mouse is capable of handling up to 10 million clicks in its lifetime, so you don't have to worry about it letting you down.
The Octane keyboard offers just about everything you could want in a gaming keyboard. It has dedicated media control keys, dedicated backlight switching key, and a Windows key that you can toggle on and off for when you're in game. The Octane keyboard utilizes adjustable repeat rates and 19-key anti-ghosting technology to ensure that none of your commands are missed, even when using hotkey modifiers.

Don't like it. Reason? It doesn't have the BIG enter key. Every keyboard without it is a no go for me.

I'm quite the opposite, I hate the big enter key. This layout is perfect for me. Except it has a retarded space button. Big buttons on keyboards are not good as they don't actuate with exactly the same force on every press. It depends on where you hit the key. This space button is a perfect example for that. It will feel one way if you press it on the left side and totally different if you press it on the low right side. The mouse looks good though. That sensor is decent, it's basically a cheaper version of Avago 3090 but it works quite good.

Yeah I know what you're saying, that's what you got used to. For me it's the left shift. Some keyboards, I think UK ones, have the left shift smaller and the | \ key is there between it and Z. Exactly like Enter. If I game on one of those there's a big risk I will throw it against a wall. As I sometimes press the small key instead of shift and that drives me crazy. :D

When you say big, do you mean the backwards L shaped enter keys?

looks nice and yes, i agree enter key must be bigger especially when you typing or doing enter much, easier to press without worry you miss and hit the wrong button when you dont see it
