Looking to treat yourself for the holidays? PC gear can get expensive, but I found some great deals on gaming accessories that I think make a huge difference to your setup. Everything in my list is under $200, with some picks as low as $9.99.

If you're hunting for a new keyboard, mouse, or webcam to go with your new PC or gaming laptop, look no further. As a lifelong PC gamer, I've tested hundreds of different accessory configurations for everything from FPS games to MOBAs, and these are my top picks for peripherals.
