5075S VIA

It takes a long time to figure out what your preferences are. So I'll share mine, and tell you what you should look out for. First start paying attention to how you grip your mouse. If it's claw-grip or fingertip-grip then you'll likely want an egg-shaped mouse. Like for me, I use the mouse with a relaxed-fingertip grip and I exert force onto the mouse solely through my fingertips to 'flick' the mouse around. So having a mouse that is well-balanced with huge glass skates is important; I need to it to glide smoothly. If you're like me then I suggest picking up a VXE Mad R Major during one of the Aliexpress sales. You can get them for like $80, reduce the price further via cashback/coupons/coins. The VXE/VGN brand was created by ex-Zowie co-founders so they absolutely know how to make mouses. I wish more brands were like them, where the software is completely browser-based and you don't need to install some weird properitary software (No bloatware on my PC thx). Also I suggest picking up a braided 2m long type-C cable to go along with it just incase you need to use it wired in emergency situations -- like when you forget to charge lol. As for keyboards, I prefer tactile keyboards. So anything that sounds poppy is good enough for me. An Akko 5075S is an extremely good bang-for-buck keyboard, it's just under $100. If you end up paying more than $100 for a keyboard, make sure it supports QMK/Via. It's an important modern featureset to have so you can rebind the keyboard layout to whatever keystroke or macro you want. If you belong in the other keyboard camp and can stomach linear switches. Then chances are you may enjoy HE keyboards. But those do come at a premium.

I have an Akko DIY 5075 with penguin silent switches, and it's so quiet. The switch feedback is great too.

idk, im to poor for my endgame for now but currently im using a redragon k606 with akko matcha v3 pro and my mice is a logitech g502 lightspeed

With a PS5 you want a keyboard that lets you turn off NKRO. The safest option there is QMK firmware, but the only manufacturer with QMK firmware on a magnetic board is Keychron and they have disabled 6KRO support in recent firmware updates. So a magnetic board would be a risk. On Ali Express I have mostly gotten 60% universal PCBs and cases like the Y&R 6095 and the YMDK DK61. * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804503651503.html * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805636824523.html * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807595731218.html And cases: * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806679743340.html * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832568535422.html The Rule60 is a very nice complete 60% board with an acrylic case I've been looking at: * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808073127468.html For larger boards, you can't go wrong with the Akko 5075 VIA or Monsgeek M1 VIA * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808543685563.html * https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807755427727.html

Assembling a barebones into a complete board is not hard, it's like a kind of boring Lego kit. For a PS5 where you're going to set it in your lap, I would recommend the Akko 5075 VIA. If you like tactile switches the Akko Creamy Purple Pro are good. I don't know enough about linear switches to really advise you on them.

Anything with QMK firmware, it's 2026, there's so many great keyboards with QMK firmware it seems a shame to put up with proprietary firmware restrictions and weirdness. Keychron: I have a K2 Pro and it's a lovely tank. I have a couple of J2s and have been hacking on the firmware. The Q and V have had quality problems and if they start losing keystrokes a few months in the support is completely pants, abusive. Akko: Monsgeek M1/M2 v5 VIA or Akko 5075 VIA. Magnetic: Keychron K or J series. They're the only QMK magnetic option other than Sunder who are even more always sold out than Keychron. Electromechanical: Glencreag WK84 or Womier WD75 because wood is such a lovely case material.
