Get a PC gaming mouse, keyboard, mic, headset, desk and chair all for under £355

Have a gaming PC sorted? Here's how to kit it out with the rest for not much money

29 November 2024

Getting a gaming PC is one thing, but what about the other stuff? We’ve been digging around for deals on periphery bits, like a chair, gaming-friendly desk and PC accessories.

We think you can pretty much kit out an entire gaming room for under £355 thanks to these Black Friday deals.

Or, of course, spend a whole lot less just by picking the deal(s) below you actually need. They all come from Trust this time, a brand that — no puns intended — has proved a pretty trustworthy name over the years. The prices may be low, but the quality is high, and certainly does provides solid value given how quickly PC peripheral costs can mount up.

The Trust gaming desk is our first pick. It has a steel frame and a smart-looking carbon fibre texture finish. The real gamer flavour comes in the headset hook and drinks holder, which we’d frankly like in our standard work desk.

There’s also a cable management system towards the back, to avoid a messy-looking setup.

Next up is the gaming chair. This one has some next-level tech inside that, sure, might even be one step too far for some of you.

It has an RGB lighting system built into its sides, snaking up around the outer padding rather than the parts on which you sit. The basics are solid too, with a 175-degree tilting backrest and a handy remote for the LED array.

Back down to earth, let’s talk accessories. There’s a wireless headset with removable mic for £40, down from £60. Not bad at all, and it's absolutely feature-packed.

This next one might be the most practical pick of the lot: a mechanical keyboard for less than £45. It has RGB lighting, a space-saving design and programmable rotary knob. The switches are from Huano, a budget alternative to mechanical key maestro Cherry.

There’s a standalone mic for just over £17, one with an LED base and condenser capsule. It’s going to be a big upgrade from the average headset mic.

Finally, we have a mouse. The Helox mouse costs just a fraction of what you might expect to pay for something comparable from Logitech. Top features include 80-hour battery life, RGB lighting and a bundled 2.4GHz USB receiver — for lower latency than you might see from a Bluetooth mouse. Only a few quid off, but it only costs a few quid to begin with.
