Specification and Unboxing

So we have been reviewing Corsair headsets ever since their genesis, their first wireless headset was (if I recall correctly) the V2000, that was replaced by the Vengeance 2100. New is the Virtuoso RGB Wireless (SE) positioned in a premium segment of the market using all wireless slipstream technology.

The Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE comes in a suitable box with a premium feel, a nice cloth pouch is inserted, the packing brings that premium unboxing feel to it. The huge advantage for this headset is that it is totally wireless, and with a good range as well; we reached 10~15 meters quite easily. The wireless connection is based on Corsair Slipstream technology. It is wirelessly compatible with PC and PS4 as well as wired USB and 3.5mm analog connections for wide flexibility.

Included in the packaging you can find the wireless gaming headset, Slipstream dongle (wireless USB adapter), 1.5m 3.5mm stereo cable, 1.5m USB charging cable, quick start guide, safety leaflet and warranty card (you receive a two-year warranty with this product).

The headset is not at all heavy but not light either at around 360g / 0.79lb. After inserting the USB dongle, the kit will self0install and link up. For added functionality (Eq and RGB) please do download the iCUE software (download). Once you plug the dingle in and select the Slipstream switch headset is fact plug and play.

Corsair HS65 Wireless Headset review
Headsets are one of the types of peripherals that Corsair offers (there are also PC components, but that’s not a story for this review). It ranges from budget-oriented HS series (the reviewed one is one of them), then there’s the mid-range Void series, and it ends with high-end Virtuoso. The HS series starts with HS35, and till now, it also contained HS45, HS50, HS55, HS60, HS65, HS70, HS75, and HS80 (some of them had different, wireless variants). We’re checking out the all-new Corsair HS65 Wireless in this review (today is the debut).

Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 6000 CL36 review
In July, Corsair presented a new series of DDR5 memories: the Vengeance RGB DDR5. The available kits from the RGB edition have a frequency higher than the base 4800 MHz (5200-6600 MHz); the non-RGB version starts from 4800 MHz. We are checking the Corsair Vengeance RGB 6000 MHz CL36 DDR5 kit today. It's in the middle frequency in the series. We already had an opportunity (almost three years ago) to review the Vengeance (Pro) RGB series RAM, but it was for the DDR4; the frequency was 3200 MHz, and it received a "Top Pick" award, and also the Vengeance RGB Pro SL which had 3600 MHz frequency (with CL18) and got the "Approved" award. But let's focus back on the tested DDR5 kit.

Corsair Katar Elite Wireless mouse review
In this article, we review the Corsair Katar Elite Wireless mouse. It’s an optical gaming mouse that was launched today, on 26.10.2022. The Katar model is a new version of the Katar Pro Wireless that was introduced on October 2020. The Katar Elite Wireless is targeted at gamers, but it should also work more than fine as a regular mouse. This time, the optical sensor is not the 10K DPI PMW3325 but a 26K DPI Corsair Marksman. It has 1 DPI resolutions steps, 650 IPS tracking, and up to 50G acceleration.
