There is a significant danger that this article will have aged terribly>. You see, I asked everyone what they were playing this weekend on Thursday, rather than the usual post-lunch scramble on a Friday. You see, I took Friday off to travel to Wales to spend a long weekend with my family. Who knows what happened between my polling of the team on Thursday and Friday? Perhaps Valve surprise released Half-Life 3 and everyone is playing that instead. Maybe they all went off videogames in the interim.

One of the biggest upgrades you can make to a PC setup in my eyes is to switch to an OLED monitor for a much sharper viewing experience. A lot of it is down to the deeper blacks, stronger contrast and excellent colours you can get from modern panels.

The Logitech G703 Lightspeed isn't one of the mice I can personally attest to using, but it's got the makings of a solid choice from the spec sheet - a reliable 25,600 DPI Hero senor I've used in some of the brand's other mice and a reliable Lightspeed wireless connection, plus a more ergonomic, contoured shape, and up to 35 hours of battery life.

Currently, this rodent is on the receiving end of a hefty discount in the 'States for Amazon's Spring Sale which makes it $60 from Amazon USA - that's its best price of 2026, and a solid price for such a potent rodent. It's £53 from Amazon UK, for reference, although that's a much more minor discount against its price in previous weeks.
