Start by peeling off the backing paper from one corner of the tape, making sure not to remove too much of the adhesive backing at once.

Widely recognized as the best mic in gaming, the retractable Discord-certified Arctis ClearCast microphone delivers studio-quality voice clarity and background noise cancellation. On the other hand, pre-cut options come in ready-to-use sizes and shapes, so you can simply peel off the backing paper and apply the tape to your mouse without the need for any cutting. That foam does at least ensure that the Arctis maintains its position near the top of the comfort tower.

Often I talk to people on Discord and find on some games they are all to quiet compared to the game volume and vice-versa on other games. They are loud enough, but if you like to listen to things an deafening levels, again these may not be your best option.

The Astro A40 TR Headset + MixAmp Pro 2017 are better for gaming than the SteelSeries Arctis 5 2019 Edition due to their very comfortable and durable build. The closed design of the headphones with high-quality, ear-wrapped upholstery and breathable AirWeave cover ensures outstanding sound insulation, so you can concentrate on the game or a conversation undisturbed by outside noise.I found my ideal audio setup was with my PC audio at maximum and with the hardware and ChatMix dial set at a little above medium. At the time, they were the nicest drivers Steelseries had ever put into a headset…but that crown now belongs to the Arctis Pro.

To get audio and microphone support, you’ll need to plug them into your controller using the 1/8” adapter. The Astro also have a better microphone for online games, and their dock has tons of controls and input options that the SteelSeries are lacking. The actual performance of the microphone is largely identical to the great mics on every other Arctis headset.However, the 10dB bump in treble, centered around 5kHz, makes speech overly bright and could sound sharp. It's not the best surround system you can use with this headset (Dolby Atmos for headphones is superior imo but that costs extra) but for out of the box it's still good. The SteelSeries Arctis 5 2019 Edition are slightly better for wired gaming than the HyperX Cloud Alpha S. png', 'values': [{'option_slug': 'size', 'option_value_value': '4xl', 'option_value_label': '4XL', 'option_value_title': '4XL'}], 'url': '/gaming-mousepads/qck-prism-series?

The Arctis 5 can be tight on some heads and don’t let much airflow through, even if their padding is made out of a porous material. There are two audio profiles available within the software: Headset Earphone (Arctis 5 Chat) and Headphones (Arctis 5 Game). The headset proved decent for gaming, but its audio profile was more impressive for other content, like movies.If you play games such as Valorant, CS2 or LoL, checkout this blogpost with an already guided tailored experience for your specific game: https://steelseries.
