Corsair Gaming H2100 Dolby 7.1 Wireless Gaming Headset

We review the new Corsair Gaming H2100 wireless headset. The H2100 is a follow-up model to the Vengeance series and works through a USB transmitter powered Dolby headset. One charge will get you 9 hours of wireless headset gaming over two quality Neodyne 50mm drivers. These surround sound headphones offer 16-bit/48 KHz playback and come with Dolby Pro Logic IIx certification and a new color theme, black is back. Over the years Corsair has moved from being a memory company towards a much more diverse entity targeted at gamers. Memory, SSDs, power supplies, chassis', keyboards, mouses, cooling and sure, audio products as well. On the audio front Corsair now has moved products to their professional gaming line called 'Corsair gaming'. Being all wireless and with nice big Neodyne 50mm drivers this headset connects wireless to your USB port with the help of a receiver and transmitter USB dongle. Being tied to USB means you'll be tied to a chip that is supported, we think that Corsair uses a C-Media chip which has support for Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows X. Windows 8.1 is obviously supported as well, you will need to download the latest driver for the full software suite which allows you to tweak audio to your audiophile preference. The new model name is the Gaming H2100 Wireless 7.1 Gaming Headset which proclaims to be a 7.1 surround wireless gaming headset that brings in realistic multi-channel-like gaming audio. The battery charge can bring you the comfort of 9 to 10 hours of usage. Next to that, the drivers used in combination with a software suite produce audio at a level that makes the H2100 really great to listen to.

As mentioned above, the H2100 works through a USB transmitter (surround-sound headset) and comes with nice big 50mm drivers and revised USB drivers that include surround sound, capable of offering 16-bit/48 KHz playback. The product will carry a 2 year warranty ensuring that the Corsair Gaming H 2100 will love you long time. Anyway, let's read on-wards and find out how the new wireless Corsair Gaming H2100 headset works and sounds. But have a peek at that new look, and then hit the next page please.

Corsair K70 RGB TKL keyboard review
The Corsair K70 RGB TKL comes from a range of keyboards that we already presented here on guru3d. We reviewed the K70 RGB Rapidfire Mk2, which comes also in a low-profile version. So, the first major difference this time is the tenkeyless format. Other than that, this keyboard has not changed much as far as the general concept is concerned. It is, of course, still an RGB mechanical keyboard, but this time it comes in a smaller package.

Corsair K65 RGB Mini keyboard review
The Corsair K65 RGB Mini is a totally different proposition from Corsair. Yes, there were other K65's in the past. Yes, it’s a mechanical keyboard with RGB, but this time it comes in a small package (and I don’t mean the box). What can this baby offer us? Well, there’s plenty.
