FULL STORY ======================================================================

With all the sales going on, this holiday season might just be the perfect time to update your gaming rig to something more colorful and just in time
to ring in the New Year with a whole new look. While black does go with everything and is a classic, gamers all over the world have been adding splashes of color to their gaming aesthetic. In fact, you need only go on Instagram to see how creative they get with their non-black setup. Some have even gone through lengths to paint their gaming monitors pink.

Now that manufacturers are already catching on to this new trend, with the likes of Logitech, Razer, and Scuf rolling out more color and/or customizable gaming peripherals, there are more options to choose from. So, we found the best of them and put them in this holiday gift guide for you. Whether you
want to spruce up your own gaming rig or gift fun gaming gear to your
favorite gamer, let this be your one-stop shop. (Image credit: Logitech) 1. Logitech G305 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse

The gorgeous Logitech G733s sound quality, connectivity, and mic performance are just as good as it looks.

Other opportunities to customize here are its suspension straps and mic cover,
which you can buy separately through Logitech. So, even if youre getting a white or black one, youre still getting splashes of color. If you want to fully commit to color though, there are blue and lilac versions. (Image credit: Razer) 3. Razer Barracuda X Quartz

We too are tired of the same black keys on our gaming keyboard . Unfortunately, the big manufacturers arent so, well, big on producing different color keycaps. Razer does, but only in pink and green. For the fun colors, youll have to go with one of the several small companies that design them exclusively, like The Kapco whose keycaps designs have gained them quite a social media following.

different color schemes, are PBT Doubleshot, and give you 104 keys for less than $50. (Image credit: Corsair) 5. Corsair K65 RGB Mini Flavor Rush

Of course, they also deliver the same impressive performance, customizability, and versatility as the black version, with features such as a whopping 8,000Hz polling rate. (Image credit: Future) 6.
