Budget 0-20k Advice on Gaming Mouse, headset and Keyboard

Thanks for the inputs on the GPU.Have a few questions on Gaming Mouse, Headset, Mebbe Keypads

Looking to get back into gaming after a long break.I hadnt used Gaming Keyboards and Models before my break. But it seems like I have to upgrade my Keyboard.So thought , might start looking for Gaming ones

Casual Weekend gamer.While I will not play daily, I bought Overwatch and will probably get Origin Access and therefore Titanfall 2. So longer play sessions on weekends.Looking for comfortable headsets with Mic Looking at Logitech Prodigy G231 , HyperX Cloud Stinger.They go for a bit higher than I was expecting them to be. Redgear HellFury goes for 1.5k and supposedly has a reliable mic. Reliability is an unknown factor for that

Havent been too particular about Mouse, in the past but looking to at least get a comfortable six button one. For the mouse, I was also looking at G102 and a slightly cheaper Cooler Master Mouse Lite S.

Looking at Steelseries QCK Mass pad

As for Keyboards, The RGB/LED lighting thing is feeling completely gimmicky to me.So that will not be an factor.If I get one, and they do seem to be ubiquitous these days, I will turn it off
How useful are the keyboards with the dedicated 6/8 programmable keys? Does a casual gamer need it for RPGs, RTS?

Any inputs on warranty and ease of replacements of certain brands are definitely welcome along with the suggestions for models

Thanks in advance

These are my peripherals: Some of the redgear gear is budget oriented and is too good for the price, especially for a casual gamer. I am surprised by the quality they have on offer. They really don't feel cheap.

Keyboard: This is a mechanical keyboard with blue cherry MX switches and removable key caps. Also has onboard macro recording, but don't use macros in online gaming as Blizzard is notorious for banning people who use macros. It is actually written in the rules, one key one function... lol

Headphones: This is stereo 3.5 mm headset. Has a retractable mic. It has a very good sound quality as well as voice clarity via the mic. Plus, it has useless RGB lighting and vibrations (good for bass music, lol... Don't use it)

Controller: This is my wireless controller for gaming. It is xinput and direct input compatible. Gets recognised as XBOX 360 controller. Good controller for the price, but dont use it for shooters as its accuracy is a question. I use regular wired xbox 360 controller for windows for GTA V and other games that need accuracy. Redgear one, I use for couch gaming with hack and slash, platformers, anything that doesnt require accuracy (AC, saints row, POP, etc.)

Mouse: Needless to say, this is the best mouse for the money. Has 8 programmable buttons. Logitech software is uber cool and provides a nice and easy GUI to configure the mouse. I keep melee, grenades and super powers on the mouse itself. Very helpful in Paladins, COD, Witcher 2 and any other game. I play Witcher 2 in real time, I never have to pause it and it plays out very cool

FPS Keyboard: This Wolfking Warrior is a life saver in FPS and RPG and RTS games. All keys are close to each other and there is a minimum hand movement to reach the keys. No macros, no mechanical switches, availability is a question. I bought it like 10 years ago and got it imported for around 3500. Works like new to this day and it has seen abuse right from BF BC2 to Paladins

I have just started my Youtube channel for Let's play videos. I am not sure if I can give the link here, maybe against forum rules. You could check the voice quality over there.
