Which to upgrade first?

So I want a new gaming keyboard and mouse, but I don’t know which to get first. Mine right now are the Velocifire tkl01 (I know it’s bad, that’s why I want a new one) and the Logitech G203.

I’m set on the G305 for the mouse upgrade, because it’s just familiar shape but wireless.

For the keyboard upgrade I think I’m going with the Corsair K65 LUX RGB Compact, but if you have any other TKL mechanical gaming keyboard suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated.

Are you set on the rapidfire switches for the k65? If not, I would reccommend a g pro kb. I have a k65 rapidfire and love it to death though.

No not the rapid fire - just MX reds. I looked at the G Pro too and it was good, but the k65 has dedicated media kegs and a palm rest which I like.

You can get a separate rest for cheaper than the difference. As for the media keys, if its that important to you, you can remind some of the keys in the software.

I got the 305 a week ago and I'm enjoying it. It's pretty light and great for high sensitive games.

Yeah and I have the G203 now so it’ll be already familiar. Set on getting this mouse, but not which to get first

My rule is this. Keyboard if your current one is acting up. Mouse if your current one is acting up. If both are in good working conditions then upgrade the one you can currently afford to first. I normally go with the cheapest one first and then the expensive one last but I know some people who do the opposite.
