I'm in the market for a keyboard, mouse and wifi card, any recommendations?

I'd highly recommend the Logitech G600 for mouse. I fuckin' love it. Very nice build quality, the buttons are all programmable with 3 profiles to save. As far as keyboards go. The best option for not too loud mechanical would probably be your corsair boards, but it really depends on the switches in the buttons with red being loud and brown being quieter. I'd stay away from anything razor now as since they were bought out their build quality is horrendous.

boy, the old mmo player in me is getting a hard on looking at all those mouse's buttons but i don't really play anything anymore that would necessitate it. thanks & duly noted for the heads up on razor stuff. i'll have to look into reviews a little more deeply on some corsair boards that i like to see which of them are quieter.

I don't use them super often as it's been a year since my last mmo but they feel good just being there without even using them and they are there if you do need them. And with the corsair remember it's the switches which you can change and customize

I'm a fan of the Cerberus I've been using recently.
It has the mechanical 'feel' but no clicky sound. Lights up red or blue which is nice in the dark. Has a bit of weight to it. Feels like you could drop it, or defend yourself, and it wouldn't break.
It is cheeto-proof and impervious to mountain dew. No latancy issues since it has a cord. Not many 'extras', just the basics, lights, and a few typical meta keys along the top.
I got mine for free, but it's usually mid range price I think.

Answering the real questions.

but is it maple syrup proof? that's what killed my laptop's keyboard...

i'm really not into the overthetop gaming style keyboards but i don't think i would feel like this guy using that. i'll have to think on it.

I would assume it can handle syrup, thought that may be harder to clean.
I was never into gaming keyboards either. In past I would always go for something simple, cheap, and wireless. I'm not a gamer, so latency doesn't matter to me. Key layout was the only thing I cared about.

But I got a Cerberus free, so tried it out. It is very durable, and the back lighting is more helpful than I expected, so I kept using it. Still do.
I wouldn't worry about your image. Nothing could ever make someone as cool as the hero in your link.

most quiet mechanical keyboards i've seen seem pretty pricey for just a keyboard.

Once you go Topre you can't go back. You won't.

lol, they have a classic 90s looking style keyboard for $250. my brother likes to rip on my dated technology because i don't like replacing things that aren't broken, i'd love to see his response to that.

You'd make a pretty woman. You asked.
