How a Turkish Operator Builds FPS Hardware Content — Methodology and Limitations

Why this page exists: Readers reasonably ask how an independent site in Türkiye reviews and compares gaming peripherals it doesn't physically test. This is the honest answer.

The honest backstory

I am Mustafa Bilgic. I run FPSAim from Adıyaman, Türkiye, as one of about a dozen specialist reference sites I operate as a sole proprietor. I am not an esports professional. I am not a peripheral reviewer with a lab full of input-latency analyzers. I do not have $2,000 of test equipment to measure click latency, mouse polling jitter, or monitor pixel response time independently. What I have is the published spec sheets, the published lab tests from Rtings, RandomFrankP, Optimum, BadSeed Tech, and TechSource, and the discipline to compile them into reference tables that are accurate, current, and clearly sourced.

What FPSAim actually is

FPSAim is a research-compilation site. It is not a peripheral review site in the sense that LinusTechTips or Rtings is. The pages on this site fall into three categories:

  1. Spec aggregation: Mouse comparison tables, keyboard comparison tables, monitor comparison tables built from published manufacturer specs and verified third-party lab measurements (Rtings is the most-cited).
  2. Educational content: Aim training methodology, sensitivity conversion math, refresh rate vs latency explanations.
  3. Buying guides: Recommendations cite specific products with Amazon affiliate links, but the recommendations themselves come from the spec aggregation work.

What FPSAim is not: a personal review site. I do not claim to have personally tested every mouse on the comparison tables. I claim that the spec sheets are accurate, the lab data is current, and the recommendation logic is consistent.

Source priority — what I actually use

Tier 1 (always preferred):

Tier 2 (cross-check):

Tier 3 (background, not citations):

What I don't do — explicitly

  1. I do not personally test peripherals in a lab. When I cite mouse weight, polling rate, or sensor specifications, I am citing the manufacturer or Rtings. I am not running my own latency measurements.
  2. I do not endorse based on personal preference alone. Recommendations are based on aggregated specs, pro-player adoption rates, and verified third-party reviews — not because I personally like a product.
  3. I do not accept undisclosed sponsored content. No mouse company is paying me to feature their product without a disclosure. Amazon affiliate links (clearly disclosed in page footers) are the only commission structure on this site, plus Adsterra display ads.
  4. I do not promote esports betting or gambling. The site does not partner with any betting or skin-trading site.
  5. I do not auto-publish AI-generated content. Some pages are drafted with AI assistance, but every published page goes through human review with the source data open.
  6. I do not represent myself as a pro player or coach. The aim training content cites peer-reviewed research and pro player setups, not my own gameplay.

Why a Turkish operator runs an FPS site

The honest answer: independent operator economics + topical interest. I have followed competitive FPS gaming since the late 2000s. I do not stream professionally and never have been a pro player. But I have read peripheral release notes, watched lab review videos, and tracked esports gear data for over a decade as an enthusiast. When I built FPSAim in 2024, I did so because the spec compilation niche was being served either by very specific YouTube channels (each with their own bias and cadence) or by quickly aging buying guides on general gaming sites. A research-compilation site that cites manufacturer specs, Rtings tests, and pro adoption data was a real gap.

I am not pretending to be Optimum or BadSeed Tech. They run actual peripheral test labs and have decades of personal expertise. I am running a research compilation site that cites their work and adds an aggregation layer.

The Amazon affiliate question

Yes, FPSAim uses Amazon affiliate links (tag: websites026-20). When you buy a product through one of our links, we receive a small commission from Amazon. This does not affect the price you pay. Disclosure:

Sister sites and operator transparency

I run about a dozen specialist sites under my own name. They include FPSTrain (aim training research), FXKRW (Korean FX), Payroll Calculator (US tax), Settlement Calculator (US personal injury reference), Moving Calculator (US relocation), Names Center (domain investing), UK Calculator (UK tax), RechnerKalkulator (German finance), Library Hours 24, AIPostMockup, Event.com.de, Kahramanmarasemlak, CoveredCallCalculator, Nexorev. All are operated under my name (Mustafa Bilgic) as a sole proprietor based in Adıyaman, Türkiye.

Direct, honest answer

If you ask me directly whether to trust this site, my answer is:

  1. Trust the underlying manufacturer specs and Rtings lab data — they are linked at the bottom of each page.
  2. Verify any specific spec or test claim against the source we cite.
  3. If you are buying a $400 keyboard or $250 mouse based on a comparison table, also watch the most recent YouTube review from a reviewer you trust to confirm the user-experience aspects we cannot capture in spec aggregation.
  4. Use FPSAim the way you would use a Wikipedia summary: a quick reference with explicit links to authoritative sources.

That is the most honest framing I can offer. The site exists to make peripheral spec data accessible and to bridge spec sheets to recommendations. The site does not exist to be your sole source of truth.
