I am trying to get every pc gaming accessory to better enjoy my games. So far I have.

-Great Computer needs no immediate upgrades
-G700 Mouse
-G35 Headset
-Subwoofers/External surround sound
-Nice glow in the dark logitech keyboard
-Gaming Mouse pad

is there anything else out there than can add on to this list?

I wouldn't waist money on a "gaming" mouse pad. I've had a $5 discovery channel one for at least 7 years and it's perfect. Gaming ones are pretty useless as they don't really give you any edge or performance boosts.

I tend not to argue with people about mice. Everyone has their idea of what's a good or a bad mouse. My only question to you is, are you going to utilize all 13 buttons? Do you have any current game that requires that amount of micromanaging? If not, I'd say skip it and save yourself some cash.

I won't argue with sound at all. It's an awesome experience to have great audio when playing a game that really knows how to utilize it to maximize the experience.

I already own everything listed, and they all serve me good. I am just looking for other things that are pc gaming accessories.

My apologies. It must have been a case of selective reading on my part. I assumed these were the things you already wanted not owned. :o

Well, since you want suggestions, how about monitor? What's your monitor size and resolution? Ever consider doing an SLI or Crossfire set up and getting a second monitor and using them as a combined monitor?

For a mouse pad just make sure you get a big one.

I don't know if they are worth the money or if they really do anything to enhance the gaming experience, but look up the cyborg gaming lights. They just display different color lights around your screen depending on what the game is displaying. I've seen led backlight kits for tv's that do the same thing and they are supposed to "reduce eye strain" and "enhance the viewing experience".

Thank you. I watched a video of it and it does look really cool. I will get this.

I don't think my post was clear. Everything I listed, I already own and do not need an upgrade of any of it.

I have a razer goliathus medium mouse pad and logitech g700 mouse.
