Investing in some of the best PC accessories for Minecraft can turn the mining and crafting phenomenon into an even more pleasurable experience. Whether you're using a desktop or a laptop PC, this list of the best PC accessories for Minecraft is sure to come in handy next time you're shopping around for some upgraded hardware.
Opto-Mechanical Keyboard
You don't necessarily need a high-end gaming keyboard for Minecraft, but once you type on these specialized switches, it will be tough to go back to anything else. You get customizable RGB lighting, a padded palm rest with lights, dedicated media controls, and an overall high-quality build.
Sit Tight
Minecraft is incredibly addictive, and without a comfortable gaming chair beneath you, you might soon find that you're crawling to bed in the small hours of the morning. This ergonomic chair from GTRACING is relatively affordable, comfortable, and it's available in a bunch of different colors to match your style.
Clear Audio And Voice
One of our top picks for best PC gaming headset, the HyperX Cloud Alpha S Blackout brings a great microphone and emulated 7.1 surround sound so you can hear every creeper and zombie that's sneaking up behind you. It's also extremely comfortable for long gaming sessions.
Accurate Pointing
Minecraft involves a lot of clicking, and skimping on a mouse is no doubt going to lead to failing switches. The SteelSeries Rival 600 is one of the best gaming mice out there, with dual-sensor setup, built-in weights, and customizable RGB lighting. It's also very comfortable, so you'll experience less hand fatigue after hours of gaming.
Project Yourself
Minecraft's popularity extends to streaming services, and you might want to get in on some of the views. In that case, something like the Logitech C922x webcam is a great choice. It handles streaming 1080p video at 30 FPS or 720p at 60 FPS. Clip it to the top edge of your monitor for a perfect angle.
A Sharper Image
Minecraft doesn't take a ton of PC power to run well (at least without shaders), so you can push high framerates at a higher resolution. This 27-inch monitor from Dell has a crisp QHD resolution, 155Hz overclocked refresh rate, 1ms response time, AMD FreeSync support, and tons of ports for easy connectivity.
Affordable Keys
Don't want to spend as much on a top-tier gaming keyboard? This low-profile option from HAVIT brings mechanical keys, durable switches, and RGB lighting. It should prove to be comfortable for long gaming sessions and heads-down productivity work alike. The included software makes it easy to create macros for Minecraft.
