So I've been a loyal steelseries customer for the last 8 years but I'm considering switching to EVGA. For those who have a keyboard and mouse combo what would you say the pros and cons are?

should invest in a custom keyboard, definitely worth it.

I just got the Z20 Keyboard and the x17 mouse from 50% discount
Pros
pretty chip right now due to the 50% off sale
good quality and sturdy build
since it's my first mechanical keyboard I find the switches to be a bit nicer than my friends steel series apex 5
very nice response speed (optical switches)
mouse feels nice in the hand
the plastic doesn't creek unlike on some mouse's
mouse has good response speeds and very nice DPI
mouse comes with extra weights
I would say the mouse has a good grip if you have bigger hands
oh yea the RGB lighting just looks super nice and everything is evenly spread out
Cons
Not the best Stabilizers on the keyboard but mine aren't that bad
the EVGA RGB Unleash software isnt the best but I hope they add some more features since its still kinda new
Sadly you cant sync all the RGB together but I heard/read forums and EVGA is trying to make that happen
Keyboard Cables not detachable (not a problem for me but for some it could be)
Big EVGA logo on top of keyboard but I personally don't mind
Shipping wasn't the best there wasn't any bubble wrap and the items were just put in a big box, luckily mine arrived intact.

What is a custom keyboard? Sounds expensive for not much use.

I would stay away from Steelseries personally speaking, I love the customisation... but the encoders for the scroll wheels wear out too quickly

Steelseries keyboards are a little bit more simple and basic looking, still feel nice to touch though. Corsair in terms of keyboards might be the play though.
