G.Skill RipJaws SR910 7.1 channel headset review - Showcase

The headset comes with ten neodymium drivers which deliver a of volume with limited distortion in bass, the biggest one being 40mm for the bass/sub effects. In comparison, a Sennheiser HD800 has 56mm drivers and a 40mm voice coil (because the technology is rather different, it's hard to call Sennheiser drivers, 'drivers') though. The ear-cups on the headset are big and padded with quite a bit of adjustment for comfort. Overall very comfortable thanks to the leather like microfiber-wrapped memory foam we discussed earlier. Oh and they'll keep your ears nice and warm during those cold winters.


The headband is fairly similar alongside many standard designs, yeah that would be big and padded, but with little extra touches like the red stitching. Differences can be found in the design of the headband, whose hinges/swivel points have been redesigned to be much more hard-wearing. The ear cups can be rotated 180 degrees so they'll adjust themselves perfectly to the shape of your head unless your have ears shaped like an ogre.
 


The microphone is retractable, up and down. It is also adjustable as you can shape/bend it positioned close to your mouth. It is noise-cancelling surround sounds in the environment once activated in the software, a dual microphone setup clearly distinguishes between noise and voice and reduces background noise up to 40dB for a more clear voice.

G.Skill is using quality USB chips in their headsets, (we think a C-Media CM6302). If it is the IC used then that is a great audio chip that offers 16-bit, in 44.1 KHz or 48 KHz sample rates, DAC for output, and 16-bit, 44.1 KHz and 48 KHz ADC (analog-to-digital conversion) for the microphone. G.Skill did not license any (expensive) Dolby certifications though. You can pull out the MIC and bend it towards whatever direction you want it to point.

G.Skill TridentZ 5 DDR5 5600 CL36 review
G.Skill has prepared very well for launching a new memory standard and has presented three DDR5 series: the Trident Z5 (5600-6400 MHz), the Trident Z5 RGB (the same range as the non-RGB’s), and the Ripjaws S5 (5200-5600 MHz). They all come in 32 GB kits (2 x 16 GB), and their frequency is higher than the base 4800 MHz. Today, we are checking the G.Skill TridentZ5 5600 MHz CL36 DDR5 kit. It’s not the high-end of the series, as even the 6400 MHz CL32 are available, and the 5600 MHz is the lowest frequency you can get from this DDR5 family.

G.Skill Z5i (Mini ITX) chassis review
This time, we're checking out the G.Skill Z5i, the first chassis from a company known the most from the RAM. Some can remember that there's an AIO (Enki) available, as well as the keyboards (like KM360), mice (and mousepad), headsets, or PSUs. The attempt is made in a not-so-popular segment, meaning the Mini-ITX (so that's one of the reasons for the mentioned limit). This choice is a brave one as it's not so easy to create a good product here. Yes, it's gaining the share, but the ATX is dominating (maybe we'll also see something from G.Skill?).
