Perfect Gaming Setup

Regardless of how you like to game best, there’s no denying that without the right setup, you will never achieve your full potential, especially not in the realm of PC gaming. Whether you’re new to the world of PC gaming or you’re a seasoned vet, there is a lot that you can do to improve your setup, upgrade your equipment and give yourself every chance at becoming a god-tier player.

PC gaming can be expensive, however, and there is no end to the amount of tech, hardware, and gadgets you can get to take your performance to the next level. Rather than heading out to your local computer shop and buying everything you need in one go for your gaming PC, it’s important to focus on a few key elements of your setup at a time. Once you have these essentials in place, the rest of your gaming setup will quickly follow suit, ensuring that you truly have everything you need to play at your very best. 

Let’s take a closer look at some of the key things you will need to succeed as a PC gamer. 

The Right Machine

If there is one place where you are going to spend some extra money, it should be on your gaming PC. There is no limit to what you can spend on a gaming PC nowadays, especially when you go down the route of customizing your machine for peak performance. 

Gaming computers come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and specs so it’s important that you choose one that will meet your needs and that will fit within your budget. When choosing your PC, be sure to focus on a machine that has a powerful processor, a great GPU, and if your budget will extend to it, look for a machine with solid-state drives (SSD) which are much more efficient and long-lasting than their HDD counterparts, which are rapidly becoming quite antiquated.

Keyboard And Mouse

While it is possible to play PC games with a regular keyboard and mouse, if you want to perform at your best, it’s wise to invest in a dedicated gaming mouse and gaming keyboard. These typically include extra programmable buttons that make it easier for you to play your own way.

Many gaming keyboards and mice are also ergonomically designed to increase your comfort and help to prevent injuries. This is an imperative design element for gamers looking to engage in lengthy campaigns, as prolonged use of standard mice and keyboards has been known to cause conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis to name a few.

Gaming Chair And Headset

As we stated earlier, gaming sessions that involve campaigns can go on for a long time, with anywhere between 3 to even 24 hours being standard for many veteran gamers. If you’re going to be spending hours on end in front of your PC, you’ll naturally need to ensure that you are comfortable. 

Being in a hunched position, slouching, or overreaching for hours at a time can lead to back, neck, and shoulder injuries over time, which can potentially lead to lifelong chronic pain. Investing in a high-quality headset, with a built-in mic, is also essential to keeping you in contact with your fellow gamers. There are also specially designed gaming chairs that come with built-in speakers and headphone jacks to immerse you even more in the gaming experience. 

Set Yourself Up For PC Gaming Success

If you truly want to play as well as you know you are able to, you’ll need to ensure that you give yourself the right tools for the job. Start by investing in the items listed above to instantly improve your setup and as time goes on, you can continue to fine-tune and improve your equipment to ensure that you stay on top when gaming online.
