Don't buy a gaming chair. Buy a good office chair. Same goes for desks (how are these even a thing??).

Gaming motherboards offer no benefits for the hiked price tag.

You can find non-gaming-brand monitors with the same refresh rates and response times, again with a better price.

Lapel mics and dedicated music headphones are better than gaming headsets and can cost less if you do your research.

Laptops, keyboards, and mice might be the exceptions. Particularly with laptops, youd be hard pressed to find a non-gaming one with a quality video card, although there are other reasons that Id struggle to recommend a gaming laptop to most people. Gaming keyboards tend to have good mechanical switches and the extra buttons on the mice are good for certain games.

But even in these cases, the branding is so obnoxious. Id love a Razer Naga without the giant logo. Yes I know you can control the lighting, but its still there and it annoys me.

Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
