New gaming laptop? Here are the best accessories to get next

Gaming Mouse

Let’s face it, the trackpad on your new laptop is not meant for gaming, and its purpose should be limited to work and other basic tasks. For those split-second kills in games, nothing is better than a good gaming mouse.The Logitech MX Master 3 gaming mouse is a popular choice that offers an asymmetrical design, two scroll wheels and more.

There are a lot of options when it comes to gaming mice, and they differ across their symmetrical or asymmetrical design, DPI settings, extra buttons and other features, making them available across a range of price points.

Headset

Yes, your laptop does have speakers. Chances are they’re fairly decent ones as well. However, when you want to immerse yourself in a fast paced game, and use sound to your advantage and listen to enemies before they spot you, you’ll want a good gaming headset, preferably one that comes with 7.1 sound support, letting you know exactly where opponents and teammates are.Headsets also generally offer better microphone quality than your laptop’s stock microphone, which is great for multiplayer gaming or streaming, when your voice clarity could be important to viewers or teammates.

Gaming Keyboard

Not all laptops may require an external keyboard as they will usually have a fairly nice one. However, this default keyboard may not have the key travel distance that you like, or perhaps you prefer a full keyboard layout that better suits your gaming needs. This calls for an external keyboard.Mechanical keyboards from brands targeted at gaming like Corsair will come with red switches, RGB lighting and other gaming-oriented features.

External keyboards are also great because they offer much more customisation and irrespective of which gaming laptop you have, you can choose a keyboard of your choice. Keyboards are also useful if you like your controls at an angle, without making the screen turn as well, something you will have to deal with on laptops’ stock keyboards.

Cooling Pad

The more powerful a laptop is, and the more resource-heavy games it runs, the hotter it is going to get. Unlike desktops, laptops can quickly reach crazy hot speeds since the internals are closer together and you don’t have desktop-level air or water cooling solutions. However, this can be partially solved with a decent cooling pad or cooling stand.Cooling pads like the Cosmic Byte Meteoroid feature RGB lighting and a display with controllable fan speeds.

These stands have fans on the surface that align with the base of your laptop and help keep the ventilation in check. Further, they also double up as a stand for your laptop if you like your  screen at an elevated angle.

Backpack

One of the main reasons of you going for a gaming laptop over a desktop is likely the portability aspect. However, to carry your laptop and supporting accessories around, you also probably want a good laptop back that is spacious enough to accommodate the laptop itself, along with accessories like your headset, keyboard, mouse and anything else.The Asus TUF Gaming Backpack comes with a waterproof lining and plenty of space to accommodate up to a 17-inch laptop and other accessories.

It is also a good idea to make sure your gaming laptop bag is made out of a water resistant outer material to keep the things inside safe from rain or any other accidental liquid spills.

Controllers

For games that are not first/third person shooters, you will likely require a controller. Games like the Need for Speed series, or the FIFA series are best enjoyed by a controller. Also, two controllers will let you enjoy multiplayer gaming on the same device, especially handy if you love sports-based games like the FIFA series.Multiple controllers will also enable you to enjoy multiplayer games with your buddies.

While controllers can be found in both wired and wireless avatars, make sure you get one that is compatible with PCs as well as consoles so you can simply use the same controller with multiple devices. Controllers are also easy to customise with skins and rubber thumb grips.
