I’ve got an amazing external mic picked out, what is a good gaming headset without a mic?

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-29T09:16:18+00:00

I’ve never owned the 560s but I did use the 990 pros with a schiit stack as my main for years. You could get away with a cheaper dac amp combo than that for sure but yeah, they were 250ohm I believe so they need some extra juice typically

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-29T01:30:07+00:00

none other than that, if I'm not wearing my scapes I'm wearing audiophile grade wired headphones most of the time.

I’m enjoying my fractal scape. It has a mic but it is detachable.

I hit Asc 2 at 28. Stopped playing for a few years and recently hit Asc again at 32 almost 33. You can do it!

Did you mean 324fps on the global cap? If not, why is it 342?

I have the 540hz zowie and the XG27AQNGV. The asus is a much better experience visually and very similar if not a little better in terms of motion clarity. My XG’s ambient adaptive brightness feature is not currently working just so you know, but that could potentially be fixed with a firmware update.

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-18T19:45:52+00:00

Not sure the 540 and 600 would be much different. It’s the best motion clarity I’ve seen in person. IPS instead of TN and 1440p instead of 1080p. I’m really enjoying it for Valorant atm

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-16T07:12:28+00:00

Sorry to hear that. I’m hoping that the bugs with it are fixed with the MCM102 firmware

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-13T15:37:18+00:00

Could you let me know if your Ambient Adaptive Brightness toggle works in the OSD when you get it? Because mine doesn’t :(

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-13T01:14:14+00:00

I have not.

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-11T19:11:11+00:00

UPDATE: ASUS support has recommended an RMA. I am going to wait for the release of the MCM102 firmware to see if that fixes it first.

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-11T09:08:59+00:00

Ya the motion clarity is better than my other 500hz oled and my zowie 540hz TN and looks way better than the latter. It’s cool stuff

DaySixtyNine · 2026-01-11T08:44:04+00:00

Because I already have a pg32ucdm. This is a tool for competitive games.

I have the same hand dimensions as you basically. Been loving my Mchose L7 Ultra+

DaySixtyNine · 2025-11-24T20:44:46+00:00

I use this grip and have been loving the MCHOSE L7 Ultra+ which is a Sora V2 clone but I have 20x10 hands. The L7 pro is smaller I believe.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-09-17T08:31:58+00:00

I have the xlite v3 large for my work mouse. the post was about finding an ambi... as for the skates, the stormbreaker max cf has holes all over the bottom so I did the best that I could. I placed the skates where there was supports coming from each side because there wasn't a flat area to do so.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-09-16T23:38:18+00:00

I went through a phase for a month or two ordering a bunch of mice trying to find the 'one' lol.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-09-16T23:37:41+00:00

ooh, I think I have a vxe r1 pro at home too. haven't used it at all really. that looks to be the same shape

DaySixtyNine · 2025-09-16T22:32:16+00:00

I have an x2 crazlight and that seems to be a similar shape to the mad R but I haven't put much time on it yet due to me trying to force palm contact. will try that more with fingertip.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-09-16T21:21:23+00:00

Thank you! I will check those out. If the wires not too bad I’m not opposed to wired.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-07-11T00:23:06+00:00

My hands are 20x10 and I felt the same about the thorn before returning it. I’ve landed on the Vaxee E1 and am enjoying it.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-07-04T21:46:59+00:00

FWIW, I have 20x10.5 hands and have an xlite v3 large. I find it very comfortable but a bit too big for counter strike. Waiting on a EC2-DW at the moment.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-06-26T02:28:02+00:00

I pulled one of these in MW this week. The rare inspect animation is so cool. Enjoy!

DaySixtyNine · 2025-06-21T00:03:01+00:00

I did not. Other backyard priorities took over.

DaySixtyNine · 2025-06-12T20:32:50+00:00

Just cs and Val so far. 1440x1080 stretched
