Some people really care about the difference you can see in latency between a wired vs wireless peripheral, how about you does it really make a difference if you have that extra millisecond of response time?

I guess as far as response time it would depend on the type of game your playing. I’ve never noticed a difference.

I do like wireless. Gives you more freedom of how far away you can sit. Unlike back in the day when I sat my rear right in front of the tv. XD

I'm planning to get wireless peripherals in the not-so-distant future. I have always preferred wired for the latency reason, but I don't really do anything where having extremely quick latency is super important anymore.

Yeah for real though I enjoy getting comfy cozy these day's farther away from the TV.

I do appreciate the lack of wires they always get so flippin messy. The only benefit right now to our KB/Mouse at home being wired is that our main computer is in our living room and there's too much potential for our child to just walk away with them and then forget where he put them

Yeah, losing the mouse is a real concern when you go wireless. o_O

I mean, so long as it stay's on the desk where it belongs it shouldn't be much of an issue I wouldn't think

What if you use a laptop that is actually... on your lap?

As long as you're not playing something fast-paced like an FPS, then I don't see a problem with it. And an extra millisecond isn't going to matter on something like an RPG game.

I always prefer wireless, the less chords to be tangled up the better IMO. However, depending on how good said wireless signal is, a wired controller might be the better option.

The only hassle with wireless is that you have to deal with charging or changing batteries.
