The Fanatec ClubSport is coming this winter to steer that fine line between desirable and ridiculous. The wheel rim can be quick-released from the all-metal, ultra-customizable base, allowing you to switch between a Formula style wheel (depicted), or GT, NASCAR and rally styles. Pricing will be equally hardcore: $450 (excluding taxes) for the base, plus between $150 and $300 for each rim, and an extra $200 if you want machined aluminum ClubSport pedals to match. Full demo in the video after the break.

Logitech isn’t exactly new to the gaming peripheral scene, but the company knows its strength lies not in pleasing hardcore FPS fans, it’s in delivering solid consumer products. The G300 isn’t a gaming mouse for the twitchy virtual gun slingers out there, it’s for folks that fire up the occasional shooter, but want better performance than they get out of the pointer packed with their PC. The nine programmable buttons and 2,500dpi laser aren’t jaw-dropping, but they’re certainly respectable for only $40. It does pack one interesting feature — gaming profiles that are stored on the mouse’s internal memory. This way you can set up different configurations for particular games and even move the mouse across PCs without any hassle.

Yearning for the ideal keyboard to pair with your suddenly revitalized Bondi Blue iMac? Good thing you’ve the patience of Job. Windows users were treated to a K750 solar keyboard of their own last fall, and it’s taken nearly a full year for Logi to crank out a Mac-specific edition. The Wireless Solar Keyboard K750 for Mac features the same amenities as found on the Wintel-favoring variant, but you’ll find this one boasting a standard Mac key layout and a concave key cap design. Naturally, no extra drivers are required to work with your existing Apple rig, and once charged, it’s capable of living it up for at least three solid months in complete darkness. You’ll find onboard solar cells that power the keyboard using ambient light, and prospective buyers will be gifted with four exclusive hues (five in total). It’ll ship in the US and Europe later this month for $59.99, and yes, that 2.4GHz module ensures that no wires will be needed for connectivity.
