Did you get a new gaming PC or console during the holidays? If so, then congratulations! Playing the best PC games, best PS5 games or best Xbox Series X games is better than ever thanks to the powerful hardware that can run the latest and greatest titles. Playing on a PS5, Xbox Series X or one of the best gaming PCs is awesome, but you can elevate the experience further with the right peripherals.

I’ve been an avid gamer for nearly 40 years and am always testing the latest gaming gear, either for recreation or here at Tom’s Guide. Because of that, I can help you pick out some of the finest gaming accessories out there. To that end, I’ve selected a variety of peripherals based on my or my team’s hands-on experience to help elevate your gaming to the next level.

This includes products like the Secretlab Titan Evo gaming chair — because you’ll want a comfortable seat for long gaming sessions. A solid gaming monitor like the LG UltraGear 32 is also a good choice, especially for competitive gamers. You’ll also need a reliable headset, such as the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5. We’ve tested and rated each of these products and have used them regularly, so we can vouch for their reliability.

Here are the 7 gaming accessories I recommend for your new console or PC gaming setup.
