    Some average gaming mouse, had a Naga before I learnt Razer's products were cheaply made, (and it subsequently breaking). Keyboard is G15, still going 3-4 years later. Some 22" Monitor, Razer headset (which has been surprisingly reliable).

    I have that same Cyborg keyboard spare, don't like it though. The lighting is lacklustre, the keys have a weird coating on (and massive letters) and the hand wrest tends to move around a lot, especially when it was like only £10 cheaper than the G15. But yeah I don't use it often.

    Specs are kind of old, they were awesome when I made the computer 4 years ago though, Quadcore, 7GB ram, some GTS 250 card and still with W7.

    (Only just noticed the OP listed they used the Rat 7 too)

    The Rat 7 is a gimmick mouse, kind of a shame to see people sucked into it. The adjustable weights are basically useless and the DPI adjustment valve or whatever you want to call it serves some kind of purpose but again is pretty useless when most people stay on the same anyway.

    (Apparently it's also a lot less comfortable compared to cheaper/better mice such as SteelSeries Xai, Ikari or Logitech MX518, G5).

    But hey, I was a Razer fanboy till I realized they were bad so I can't judge too hard.

    Debate commence!

    I think weights can make a difference, but really it's only if you want to finetune movement with your mouse. It has to be a good mouse with a good surface.

    I love this mouse. it is Very Comfy. The weights make a difference. Because I have a tense hand, and to keep my mouse grounded in tense situations, weights help. DPI, is eh. it also isnt built great. It was a gift, not my choice to get:3

    Right now I'm at work but from memory

    Cosair 650D Case (with an extra fan installed)
    i5 2500k processor overclocked @3.7GHz
    Nvidia 560ti
    8GB Cosiar Vengeance
    120GB OCZ SSD
    Some average 400GB hard drive I've had for the past 2 years
    Logitec G400 mouse (I got an extremely good deal on this one, only getting it for £10)
    Microsoft Sidewinger x(something) keyboard

    I'll post pictures of my setup when I eventually get home in 12 hours.

    Also fucking hell Overlord you have the exact same desk and PC case as my old one.
    Ugh, horrible. I know you can turn back to classic windows layout but it seems Microsoft is now trying to make their OS a fucking tablet with making programs now having to be verified by Microsoft, removing the whole open aspect of a "open-platform" and the fact that the UI is based of an old AOL OS that looks like its been made with retards in mind.

    Personally I might move over to Linux when steam starts supporting it. I mean Linux does everything great apart from gaming.

    Personally I love the mouse. Can make it fit my hand perfectly. Mouse is heavy with or without weights in it so doesn't really make a big difference. The DPI adjustment thing is good when switching games (Like between TF2 and CSS)

    Used to have Razer Copperhead and although it lasted a long time the mousewheel eventually broke ;(

    I change my DPI probably over 100 times in a game. long range, low dpi. short range, high DPI.

    12gb RAM
    560ti
    500gb SATA
    Winny 7<3

    Basic microsoft mouse.
    G110 keyboard, pisses me off, my space bar is incredibly squeeky and the back lightning is pretty dim. Awesome colour choices and customization though.
