New PC gamer -- gonna make the switch to KB/M for FPS...tips ...

My suggestion is to get a keypad like the n52te (used to be made by nostromo, now made by razer I think) or the logitech g13. The mouse is easy to get used to IMO, it's the keyboard that really isn't suited for gaming. A keypad has a joystick for movement, which you are used to from controllers, and a condensed button layout.

I've never really liked aiming with a controller, pushing the reticle just never felt right to me, The transition between aiming, the dead space and then player movement always felt unnatural. But accurately clicking on things with a mouse in an FPS always felt intuitive because I was used to it from just using a computer. I would say my time was fairly evenly split growing up between consoles and pc, although I played some FPS's on the PC growing up, the first one I really got into was n64 goldeneye and then I moved onto other console shooters before I eventually went back to gaming on the computer.
