Thermaltake have announced their new "Challenger Pro" gaming keyboard - which features a fan, to keep your left hand cool and sweat-free while you game.  

My question is, are you hardcore enough for the Challenger Pro?  Or, alternatively, is the Challenger Pro hardcore enough for you?  Do you need more than one measly little fan on your keyboard?

You can see pictures and read more details over at Bit-Tech:

HMmmmmm

That fan actually looks annoying, It should have mini fans in the keyboard that blow ear up through the keys :D That would be epic.

Though if I got one of those free I wouldn't complain.

That little fan just won't do anything but make nosie in my opinion.

While a fan that blows up

While a fan that blows up through the keys sounds like the most frakkin amazing thing in the whole world, this doesnt look too bad if I will say so. Fortunatly or unfortunatly, I have yet to game in an enviroment where my left hand becomes too sweaty to handle it. My Mouse hand on the other hand.... (heh)

Yeah, a mouse with a perforated top with a fan underneath (blowing up through the top) could be pretty amazing...

Actually a mouse pad with a fan under it and small holes would be nice, since we all use laser of optical now wouldn't stopsthe use of the mouse either... right? Would love a mouse pad with a fan blowing upwards.

Holes in your mousepad could

Holes in your mousepad could possibly cause some issues... my (optical) mouse at work sometimes jumps around a bit when I move it over the gap between the two parts of my desk (essentially just a very narrow crack).  But that mod... if done on a decent mouse, and done very neatly... that would be great.
