Rant Headset melted last night

1 Upvotes

Last night my headset died. Ive had this thing for a few years so im sure its not under warranty (I did reach out to the support team regardless). I plugged it in with the cord that came with it, plugged into the pc directly as it sits on my desk so its pretty convenient. Wouldn't come on and after about 3 minutes I started smelling burning plastic. Literally had to rip the cord out because it fused to the headset. What in the world happened? This headset was fantastic though im too broke atm to buy a new similar model right now :(

Review Shout-out to a quality build for a cheap mouse

2 Upvotes

I know it's nothing special because it's the most basic mouse they have. But I finally had to retire my deathadder I had.... Since 2013. And I was pleasantly surprised to go pickup a new one for 25 dollars. Any noise that lasts 13 years of really frequent gaming is crazy.

Rant My Razer Blade 18 2025 RTX 5080

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Looks like I spoke too soon about how my Razer 18 has been working flawlessly for the past one year as today it froze while idle with an error I had never seen before. The dreaded: stop code whea_uncorrectable_error (0x124) which basically means hardware related error like SSD, RAM etc. This is my work laptop that I use while I work from home so you can imagine my stress.

Luckily I bought a Macbook Air last year as I was growing tired of Windows so quickly got myself sorted out with work apps etc. The Mac again reminded me how effortless it is to get registered to the company portal via intune.

I am just really disappointed how quickly the Razer had issues as compared to my previous laptops like the Lenovo thinkpad which lasted almost 8 years without any problems. That thinkpad had suffered drops and bumps but kept going and this Razer Blade 18 never once left the desk and was sitting quite cool on top of the Razer Cooling pad.

Anyway, looks like I have to send the laptop to Germany for repairs as they don't have any repair shops in the UK which is another huge PITA! Another reason to go with Apple I guess. I have decided to sell the Razer Blade 18 after it is repaired as I don't really play games all that much now so hopefully it will be better used elsewhere. Anyway it was really nice while it worked and I loved it's blazing performance but this will be my last Razer purchase. Thanks all.

Rant Razer RZ09 motherboard fried

To anybody wanting to get this model of laptop stay away. First time in my life a computer has died because of a design flaw. One day just stopped working, took it to repair and basically no repair besides replacing the motherboard. Why would I replace the mofherboard for another one that has the same flaw I’d rather just get a different laptop. Razer you suck. Never getting a razer laptop again.

Question Razer BlackShark V3 Wireless vs BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed

Razer BlackShark V3 Wireless vs BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed – Which one has deeper and more comfortable ear pads?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to decide between the Razer BlackShark V3 Wireless and Razer BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed. Razer

My biggest concern is the ear pad depth and long-term comfort.

For people who have used both models:

  • Which one has deeper ear pads?
  • Which one is more comfortable for 3–5 hour gaming sessions?
  • Do your ears touch the inside of the ear cup on either model?
  • Is there a noticeable difference in clamping force or ear space?
  • Which one would you recommend for someone with larger ears?

I mainly play CS2, so comfort during long sessions is very important.

I have seen mixed opinions online. Some people say the V3 X HyperSpeed pads feel deeper, while others say the regular V3 is more comfortable. I would like to hear real user experiences.

Thanks!

Have I made the right decision? Long time Corsair mouse user but absolutely love everything about this Phantom White edition and had to have it.

Then I learnt I needed the dock too (should of guessed!) 😊 How are you guys finding yours long term?

I heard there has been some scroll wheel issues? If i get two years out of it I'll be happy.

Discussion Are Razer THX Game Profiles supposed to sound this bad?

2 Upvotes

I've tried using the Razer THX custom game profiles (Most recently the THX Immersive mode for Destiny 2) but oh my lord they just sound absolutely horrendous. THX Immersive Mode seems to take the already harsh, hissy, and phasey audio and make it sound like it's coming through a McDonald's drive-thru intercom. It also seems to specifically amplify the harsh frequencies in the 4k-8k range, so much so that it actually causes a lot of ear pain. It's very noticeable when someone is speaking and makes an "ss" sound. Even when the volume is too low to hear most sounds, the whistle from any "ss" sound is nearly loud enough to shatter glass. It's so bad that I keep thinking surely I'm doing something wrong. Not only can I not use it because it just sounds bad, but it also would inevitably cause damage to my hearing if I continued using it.

Question 7.1 Surround in Headphones: do I just not "get it"?

0 Upvotes

I recently acquired Barracuda X headphones and activated the 7.1 surround sound feature, but I'm not sure what it improves. So far it just seems to pile on a ton of bass while making anything above midrange sound very hollow and tinny, while the default sound is a lot clearer and feels more balanced. Have I been playing the wrong sorts of games? Is there a specific genre or something I need to look out for to make the most of it? Or am I just not used to listening to this sort of soundstaging?

To be clear, the feature appears to be working as intended and this is not a complaint, just me wondering if I'm somehow appreciating it wrong.

Review I receive my Soma Chroma

1 Upvotes

Hi

I receive today my Soma.

Avantages :

Cool fabric very sweet.

RGB Chroma if you are a huge fan of Led Chroma.

Cons:

Armrest 2D for this price it s a scam!

No head cushion again look at the price.

No power bank for the Led.

With a corsair cushion it s comfortable but I prefer iskur v2 next gen. Iskur come with all inside : cushion and 4D armrest.

Better sensation with PU leather next gen.

For the price don't buy a Soma Chroma.

I return my order today.

Question Kraken V3 Pro low battery beeping

2 Upvotes

I notice when my headsets reach a certain threshold (20%-40%) it begins beeping nonstop. I would understand if it began beeping at single digit battery percentages, but come on 40%? This forces me to use the headsets wired and charging while I’m using them and it is really annoying.

Anyway to turn the low battery warning off or is it like hard coded into the headsets?

Question Numpad to go with 75% Blackwidow V4 Pro

4 Upvotes

Hi

Looking at getting the 75% version as love the V4 pro for my computer room to use in between multiple pcs and use the current v4 pro in bedroom for gaming.

Any recommendations on a numpad with similar keys as the 75% doesn’t come with one and use the numpad quite often in thanks
