If you're grabbing a new laptop, you'll need a bag to keep it safe. This Dell backpack fits laptops up to 16 inches, with 27L of capacity, and it's not too bulky with a weight of 0.55 kg.

Weighing just 60 grams, this Alienware Pro Wireless Gaming Mouse will glide across your desk with ease. With both 4K wireless polling and 8K wired polling, it's incredibly responsive, boasting a DPI of up to 26,000.

This cheap 24" 1080p monitor gives you two built-in 3W speakers, and it's a fantastic pick for a simple second monitor or to get work done on. It even comes with a 144Hz refresh rate.

Dell promises crystal clear communication with the Pro Plus Earbuds, so you know you're in good hands. They have noise-canceling mics on board to isolate your voice from background noise, as well as active noise cancelation to keep you focused on whatever you're listening to without distractions. There are four eartips included to get a comfortable fit, too.

This keyboard is a hit with the Tom's Guide team, with one of our editors writing: "When it comes to everyday work duties, I use the Alienware Pro wireless gaming keyboard. Though it’s designed with gaming in mind, it’s also a lovely board to type on. And Dell’s 75% form factor board is also extremely good-looking thanks to its LED lighting."

The Alienware AW2525HM 320Hz LED is a downright outstanding monitor for those on a budget. With a 320Hz refresh rate and 0.5ms response time, the AW2525HM is great for gaming as it ensures a lag-free experience. The color accuracy, rendition and reproduction is excellent too, as is its brightness. Although HDR is slightly weak and there are no built-in speakers, this is still an amazing monitor for the money.

We rank the Alienware AW2725D as the best 2K option on our list of the best monitors. It's one of the richest-looking and most colorful we've tested, and you also get a super-speedy 280Hz refresh rate and super-fast 0.03ms response time.
