keyboard - Microsoft Sidewinder X4 around 2.2K.
For mouse, wait for other members to suggest, I am not sure.

Assuming that your total budget is 2X 5K = 10K, my suggestion goes like this:

Keyboard: Razer Blackwindow @4.1K
or
Razer Blackwindow Ultimate @5.9K

Mouse: Razer Imperator @3.3K
or
Logitech G5 @3.5K

addition: if your total budget is 5K then ignore my post.

For keyboard I will suggest Logitech G15 or Logitech 510(4-4.5k). OR, if you have a smaller table(<20inch in width), then Tt eSports Challenger Ultimate(3.5k) is better. :)

Since the OP has backlit as top most preference, the keyboards I suggested will be better. If not, then he should specify that in post :p :p

yeah...umm..ive been doing some research ind i know that mechanical keyboards are immensely satisfying but blue backlight is my primary objective here...so if one of the backlit contenders is also mechanical then that would be great!!!!! :D..razer blackwidow ultimate is the only one here i guess

Dude you are considering few days of pleasure over years of stability....

You will like Blue LEDS first but later it doesnt matter

Get a keyboard which will work with you for years ....
I bet you getting showy keyboards to impress your friends .....dont!!..
buy for your need...
If you still persist

get something in razer ...they are fans of blue LEDS :p

and for mouse please specify your grip !!


I would get steelseries xai !!


ps: I would get a 500rs logitech keyboard and spend rest of the cash on some beautiful Senheissers or steelseries based headphones @ 10k ...

Both choices made by you are very good. Mechanical keyboards are reliable and those who says that it isn't they are terribly misinformed. So, don't worry while buying blackwindow ultimate. ;)
