Peterbot's gaming gear

What keyboard, mouse and headset does Peterbot use?

Peterbot, the Falcons Esports Fortnite player, uses a SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 keyboard, a Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE mouse and a HyperX Cloud III headset, according to ProSettings.net, which last updated his page on 12 October 2026. The three items cost £371.08 together on Amazon UK at the time of writing (October 2026).

The same page lists a BenQ ZOWIE XL2566K monitor and a Gamesense Radar Benjyfishy 2 mousepad. It does not list a price for either, so this post gives none. Buyers choosing their own gear can start from Best gaming mice UK 2026, Best gaming keyboard UK 2026 and Best gaming headset UK 2026.

What mouse and keyboard does Peterbot use, and how is the mouse set up?

The Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE weighs 61 g, connects wirelessly and uses the HERO 2 sensor with 100 to 44,000 DPI, ProSettings.net reports. Peterbot runs it at 800 DPI and 1,000 Hz polling, even though the mouse supports 8,000 Hz. The SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 is a tenkeyless keyboard with OmniPoint 3.0 switches and a 0.1 mm to 4 mm adjustable actuation range.

• At 1,000 Hz the mouse reports every 1.000 ms. At 8,000 Hz it would report every 0.125 ms.
• A 360 Hz monitor draws a frame every 2.78 ms, so 1,000 Hz delivers about 2.8 mouse reports per frame and 8,000 Hz would deliver about 22.2.
• A player at the top level of Fortnite who stays at 1,000 Hz shows that the polling ceiling is not what the mouse is bought for. The 61 g shell and haptic buttons are.

The polling question has its own breakdown in Is 8000 Hz polling worth it? and analogue switch behaviour in Is rapid trigger worth it? ProSettings.net lists his keyboard model but no rapid trigger value, so this post does not state one.

Prices: the Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE is £156.79 and the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 is £159.99. The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 at £109.99 keeps the 8,000 Hz ceiling and drops £46.80. The Razer Viper V3 HyperSpeed at £59.99 is rated for 1,000 Hz, which matches his setting, and saves £96.80 at 82 g.

What headset does Peterbot use, and what headset does Spoit use?

Peterbot uses the HyperX Cloud III, a closed-back wired headset with 53 mm drivers and a detachable microphone. Spoit, the Shopify Rebellion Rainbow Six Siege player, uses the older HyperX Cloud II according to his ProSettings.net page, last updated 10 August 2026. The two headsets share 53 mm drivers and weigh 318 g and 320 g.

• HyperX Cloud II: £47.69 on Amazon UK, a USB sound card with 7.1 virtual surround, 60 ohm, and a 15 Hz to 25,000 Hz response on retailer spec sheets.
• HyperX Cloud III: £54.30, USB-C, USB-A and 3.5 mm connections, 10 Hz to 21,000 Hz.
• The £6.61 gap between them buys a USB-C connection.

What monitor and mousepad does Peterbot use?

The BenQ ZOWIE XL2566K is a 24.5-inch 1920 x 1080 TN panel at 360 Hz, listed without FreeSync or G-Sync. His mousepad is the Gamesense Radar Benjyfishy 2, a stitched cloth pad measuring 50 cm by 50 cm and 3 mm thick. ProSettings.net also lists a HyperX QuadCast S microphone, a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and a GeForce RTX 4090.

A 360 Hz refresh gives 2.78 ms per frame against 3.57 ms at 280 Hz, a gap of 0.79 ms. The BenQ ZOWIE XL2540X+ at £289.99 is a 24.1-inch 280 Hz Fast TN alternative.

Which of Peterbot's items is the best buy?

The HyperX Cloud III is the one item that costs well under £100 and matches the pro's pick exactly: £54.30 on Amazon UK at the time of writing (October 2026).

Three alternatives, at Amazon UK prices in October 2026.

What does copying Peterbot's gear cost against cheaper swaps?

Copying the three priced items costs £371.08, and the cheaper swaps cost £236.94, a saving of £134.14 or 36.1%. Almost all of the saving sits in the mouse.

Verdict

Peterbot's keyboard, mouse and headset are the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3, the Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE and the HyperX Cloud III, and the headset is the only one that is cheap to copy. Buyers who want his feel for less should start with the mouse swap.
