| My desk has very rough edges and is high off the ground, and sometimes it doesn't feel comfortable when I lay my wrists on my desk for long periods of time.
Does anybody recommend a keyboard/mouse wrist rest setup that's good? --- First, get rid of the cuffs. - Norman Jayden from Heavy Rain |
| I got the Corsair K90 mechanical keyboard and it actually has a wrist-rest that comes with it that has a soft rubber coating. Really makes for a more comfortable gaming session. I also have a gel- wriste pad for my mouse but I only use it in non-FPS games because for some reason I can't aim and accurately with my wrist on the gel pad. --- Desktop: http://i.imgur.com/qv9CK.jpg Current Game Collection: http://i.imgur.com/FYaHS.jpg |
| Is it a posture issue caused by the height of the desk compared to your chair? If so a wrist rest will make it worse. --- PSN/Steam: beezer08 http://cdn2.sbnation.com/imported_assets/863332/tebowed_medium.gif |

| I have a ducky wrist rest
I enjoy it a lot. I don't use a mouse rest though, so I can't comment. The last one I had was on a Razer Exactmat and I hated it. --- bleep blorp |

| A taller computer chair would solve the issue if you have the same issue I did. Personally using a wrist rest made it worse as it increased the angle on my wrist. I couldn't find a tall enough chair, so I installed a keyboard tray under my desk. It's more comfortable now, but the damage from my bad posture and Diablo 3 was not pretty. --- PSN/Steam: beezer08 http://cdn2.sbnation.com/imported_assets/863332/tebowed_medium.gif |
