and membrane is a broad term
but i retract my comment about mech switches not being silent
i mean depends what you need really
i'm not sure if i'll ever be buying a keyboard off a gaming brand
Im thinking about getting the rival 600 and m750 tkl bundle
if ur PVP player , then everyone will complain about noise from ur key clicks from Cherry Red.....
i love the noise TBH, and i havent gotten any complaints. but i can totally understand someone who doesnt want the noise
I like silent keyboard
yeah, i don't want a noisy keyboard
well i guess its just me then 😛
i think getting a keyboard with Gateron silents or something
will be quieter than my membrane keyboard right now
Yeah also you can put o rings on to make it even quieter
@regal grove o-rings reduce travel and worsen the keyfeel
Hello there
Hi everyone
Hello :)
do the tkl keyboards have scroll lock, pause break, right windows key, right control. right shift, home, end & ins buttons pls
i think so?
im scared to buy if it doesnt have scroll lock
or right windows key, i need that one
does that include the lights that indicate if you have cap lock on
does it come with a palm rest
actually i think that keyboard is too small for me
ill get the one with the numpad
wait a minute!
where is the right windows key?
and the fn key
@short matrix the steelseries logo is the FN key i believe
yes
oh i have an apex somewhere lemme check
okay ya boi has an apex 300 right here
what does the fn key do again?
god this keyboard is nasty
typing on the keybaord now
oh i think i know what fn does
oh i get it
the m750 doesnt have anything to use fn on
but whata aboutg arighgt windows kjmey
jesus
brb im gona throw this keyboard in a skip
okay, so does that weird looking key, with the square and lines in it work as a right windows key?
maybe i should ask my dad to give me my old cherry keyboard back
or can i get a seperate right windows key?
Okay
I’m testing a prototype right now
I don’t remember the paper I signed mentioning an NDA
the key with the line in it on the right is for opening drop down menus
Cause all of them have android and they dont wanna expose themself
@stray axle it's pretty funny when people make that mistake, but it mostly happens the other way around
💯
hello
@fair gyro take care of kaiwade
ahah gn everyone
gn!
🇬 🇳
Anyone here available for a little tech help? It's related to screws. One is stuck. And loose enough to know its not actually screwed in.
i can try and help
Well I've screwed this screw for minutes already and I can tell that it's unscrewed.
Problem is, it won't go out.
you probably stripped it, have you tried a magnet to see if its just in?
@stray axle
@stray axle did it fix itself
nope
@stray axle Please don't spam
i need help
and i dont have time and i dont want to do a ticket
so if someone can help me with my arctis 5 microphone dm me
the problem is that my mic is too quiet
@high bough i have a few ideas
@high bough check this out https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/steelseries-arctis-5-mic-not-working-solved/
Also make sure you position your microphone with the little needlepin holes facing your mouth. Basically position the flat surface so that it angles perfectly towards your mouth
The pro of a bi-directional mic is its excellent noise cancelling capabilities - the con is that you gotta position it right, otherwise you'll end up cancelling yourself out ;)
Hey gang I hope you’re enjoying your Friday evening?! Quick question.. is it possible to set colour profiles on your mouse and mouse mat using short cuts and stream deck???? I’d love to be able to shift my colours with the touch of a button.
@trim vine i know you can bind configs to keys on the keyboard. I do not have a stream deck however so Im not sure from that point
Well I guess if it’s a hot key then yea that should work
for instance, i have my different configs, and apps bound to my F-# keys
i can DM you a pic
Yes please my friend
@trim vine it's the category "Launch Configurations" in the binding menu in SSE
@long pagoda JHunz#9774 that’s mate me and @long pagoda are trying it now
nothing worked
@high bough hmmmm weird
maybe someone else has some ideas
but i'd say your only option left is to submit that ticket and see what SS can do for you
Does anyone know how to make the scroll wheel tilt on the Rival 500 activate Back/Forward in browsers?
@blazing delta yes
the shortcut key for that is alt-(right/left) arrow key. so if you made a custom macro or keybind, just hit alt, then an arrow key
@long pagoda sweet! that works, thanks a lot
np
Hey can someone help me out here?
what do you need help with
how do I fix my steel series cord. I have my chat mix in my ps4 light on is just okay then when I plug the headset into the chat mix it starts blinking and does not work
@tawny hearth could you have put that in any more channels?
what headset do you have?
and what is blinking? the ps4? chat-mix dial? headset?
when I plug only the chat mix in the light is on fine then when the cord with headset it flashes
chat-mix dial
does it work when you plug it into the ps4 remote?
can't find the usb cable
@tawny hearth i want to go out on a limb and say you need to have that 3.5m - micro-usb cable for audio to work? maybe
ok thanks for the help you have been the most
I was playing then the audio and mic went out
i dont have the arctis 5 so i really cant help ya to much
ill send a video maybe if that helps anyone else

Ugh, why is it so hard these days to find a nice microphone.
@jade thunder external microphones are good, blue yeti or snowball very good quality
But Omni, which would pick up sounds around me
dont
dont buy blue
their mics are garbage
get an at2020 xlr if you're looking for something cheap but good quality
but dont get a really crappy interface, you will have noise if you do
and the focusrite one is overpriced
also, screen burn-in on my Rival 700 😢
😭
Also, GIFs don't play anymore :c
I'm scared about my Arctis Pro Wireless mixamp now 👀
@jade thunder GIFs only play while engine is running FYI
@mellow nymph it is
Wish I could reflash the firmware to see if that helps
Also, this somehow happened to my default profile: https://i.imgur.com/DTIxfnC.png
Here's pics of the burn in: Burn in https://imgur.com/a/9sWoDl4
you can remove that association in the right-click edit menu if you didn't mean to have it there
haha, that's at least a sweet thing to have burned in
@mellow nymph I prefer to have a working mouse without burn-in =P
if it's still in-warranty it's probably something support would cover
@mellow nymph will do that in a moment, gonna eat some pizza first, dinnertime
not sure about the policy
I'm not even sure if it's still in warranty though
@mellow nymph how can I check my warranty?
is there anybody who uses rival 300s?
@stray axle i dont own one, but i have used it
I also don't get why the Rival 710 was released while they just could've released just the sensor 🤔
because
they wanted a product
that came with it installed
so users didnt have to pay extra or install a module
I don't see the merit of the new sensor though
it's smoother
@long pagoda can i really use prism sync and the other features with rival 300s? i cant see its name on website under prism sync tab
better performance
that's just marketing jabber
@stray axle yea.
do you see the prism sync app?
@stray axle you can DM me if you want
It's a rebranded 3360 tho
idk im using the 710 atm it feels good
it's not just rebranded, it's altered @jade thunder
i have a cat gaf on it atm and it looks super cute
enough to merit being its own sensor
Meh, I use 1600CPI, no need to swap to a TM3 then
Anybody else's Arctis Pro microphone not lighting up since the recent software update?
same
Thank god it's not just me! I was worried
only red (muted light)
3? 5?
I try and set the colours but it always removes them and disables the lights
the wireless is another one
The Live preview doesn't even work
hey there someone can help me ?
I just got new computer but my arctis 7 headset not working on this ( the usb dont found the wirless adaptator )
@thick depot did you instal all the drivers and ect?
the engine serie ?
yea Steelseries engine
so maybe the port is bad?
is the headset new? i know you have to download firmware and stuff like that
oh
then i'd try deleting all existing drivers and reinstlalling them
okay
well same when reinstall usb port
but its fine it work on usb c adaptator so is not problem anymore 😃
Are there any benefits to using a Y-Splitter cable for a headset?
you mean the thing you need to use the microphone?
Im doing a charity stream for christchurch come and support
sorry bud but i dont think advertising is allowed
hello
i'am new here i have two steelseries rival 500 in my computer but in my stellseries engine 3 i only have one rival 500 tab, the new mouse i have has a lower sens then my old rival 500 mouse how to see the dpi in steel series engine 3. (sorry for bad english)
please remake the 6gv2 keyboard it was so simple and good without any rgb flashy nonsense, no backlight at all
hands down best keyboard from steelseries
its out of stock everywhere
Ok sorry
No worries
@hallow bough you can get the Apex M500 and turn off the backlight
I think that depends on the language @fervent igloo
Pretty sure my M500 with a Nordic layout has the big enter
makes sense
alright
i went to a place where there were keyboards on display
there was an M750
but some keycaps were missing and others were re-arranged
Sounds about right. People mistreat stuff like you wouldn't believe in stores
It bothers me more than I'd like to admit
But it's a general lack of common courtesy I think
It's the same with people leaving tons of trash behind them in public transportation, cinemas, airplanes etc
ye
keycaps are just easy to take I suppose
some keyboards kept their full keycap sets
like a HyperX alloy fps. the keycaps looked pretty good
Yeah
There was this crazy expensive $10k+ laptop on display in a store and someone had completed trashed some of the buttons on the keyboard
Pisses me off
Can't help you with that here @short matrix - contact support either through #official-support or the website :)
they told me its the courier
Yeah. I believe they are working on making it cheaper :)
@stark rampart any eta on when that will be happening though? 😊
Sorry, not that I know of @mild lintel
i aint buying anything from the website until its cheaper
£10,99 is too much for anything
for shipping
It's a conspiracy theory to make you buy more until the shipping is free 👀 😉
@stark rampart no probs, thanks for getting back to me
yw :)
does the m500 have a white plate under the keys when you switch the lights off
no idea, but may i ask why's that relevant?
if u scroll up you'll understand
what? you want another 6Gv2
yeah boi
Daft question, do the Leather Arctis ear cushions fit the pro models??
Website just says 3, 5 & 7
🤔
I believe that the Leather/Velour is only for the 3,5 and 7
@mild lintel I had asked the same question a while ago. I got the same answer. 3,5,7 are different sizes than the pro is what I was told
Damn :( @long pagoda
they fit
Just asked someone on the website chat support team and they said they fit all of the Arcits models including pro 😊
So its 2v2 with two conflicting answers. Can a staff confirm one or the other?
🤔🤔🤔
@long pagoda they fit both, straight from the mouth of our main headset guy
@mild lintel
Ok. Thanks for clarifying!
@mellow nymph is there a reason there are two separate arctis ear cushion - airweave options then in the accessory page?
@long pagoda apparently we reworked the construction of that cushion for the pro line.
So its the same size? Or no? Just built differently? If so, how is it different?
sorry, but headset guy has escaped into a meeting
hey, anyone has the issue when you want to purchase stuff from sale madness that it still shows the old price and not the reduced one ?
i just want the mousepad and if i buy 2 cause a friend wants also one its cheaper
i deleted cookies and the cache still the same sadly
on the phone its also not working i get always the regular price
so not an issue with my pc or phone
i will try it in a few minutes again hopefully it works
can i make the rgb on my rival 110 look smoother
you can see the colors switching, it doesnt look very smooth
if it's a limitation with the LEDs, all you can do is install your own. But i'd doubt anyone would want to
RGB on a mouse isnt too important, most the time it's covered up
would there be a reason my mouse cursor is acting weird, like lagging behind my mouse movements and being really "jerky"?
Sleep well 👌
If you can plug the synth into the analog input and the signal isn't too hot, then I can't see why it shouldn't work
Are there any discount codes anyone is aware of that will work above and beyond this madness sale?
no
hello
Most company fan servers have a rule saying the opinion of our devs isn't nesicerally the opinion of steelseries (or any other company)
Just a good thing to have in rules
guys
my apex 150 keyboard had the nice rainbow colors scrolling through
but after downloading their driver it's just stuck on rainbow colors that don't move
Hey anyone know why my arcts pro wireless always turn up the volume when i use the bluetooth on mobile every time i play a laused video or play a video or media it always maxes the audio anyonw know a fix?
does anyone here play yu gi oh duel links?
My Arctis 3 Bluetooths have a static noise whenever theres sound playing
nvm just had to unplug them a few times
ok i take that back its still there but just less noticeable
only happens when theres a lot of highish pitched noises
also whenever i unplug and plug them back in and im using spotify, it skips every song
shhhh
lol
the page is horrible, i agree
i wish
oof
the non-bluetooth are 60 bucks now
i dont use vr
epic gamer moment
The mic is pretty good on the Arctis 3
lmao
they're ok for music
ive had mine for a few months and the strap's fine
is the arctis 5 good?
oh
do they still make siberia headsets?
i cant find them on their website and if i google it theyre all out of stock
oh
arent they like 300 buckls
oh
i thought it was only wireless
the bluetooth on the arctis 3 sounds bad
yeah
depends on what sound is coming through
i love bass but just not when it overtakes every other sound
lmao
hapitcs?
oh
yeah i saw that
i mean the vibrating on the Rival 710 is pretty nice
when i got it i thought it was gonna be like on a controller when you shoot
but its a pleasant surprise that its not
Yeah my next mouse is gonna be the Rival 600
I'm a fan of the oled on the 710 but at the same time im not
yeah
i know what you meant
im not gonna look down at my mouse and be like "oh i need to reload"
and what do you mean?
oh no
you can change through 2 dpi settings
it has a screen?
are the arctis 3-arctis 7 just the exact same except for the surround sound?
woah
ah
no they're all S1
all the drivers are S1 until you get to the arctis pro
Arctis 7 is bluetooth
that's the only change
yes
plus it looks nicer
Just broke my chat mix dial which they don't even sell in the UK....
@short matrix Razer does have a vibrating keyboard and headset i believe
razer showed vibrating wrist rest and vibrating chair at ces
got my first steelseries product today! new keyboard is here 😃
woooo 😄 what did you get!!
@fair gyro Apex 150 😁
ooo the splash resistant!!
Welcome to the club, lol
I'll likely be getting rid of my M750 for a Ducky Shine 7 or a Gnass GK-87 .
Though, Loving my Arctis 7 Atm, definitely keeping it lol
Sadly the M750 suffers the same fate as most of the other "gaming" keyboards out there
Oh and um, Afternoon, lol
Only redeeming feature for the M750, imo anyway, is the fact that Steelseries engine is fantastic
can anybody help me plz I have a problem with my wireless mouse, it is constantly reconnecting to the charging station and disconnecting it again and it has not worked since the beginning my mous is the Sensei Wireless
Not sure I'd be entirely helpful here
do you have the same mouse?
No, the only SS mouse I have is a Rival 310
I do not know what I should do the bot somehow could not help me or I did not understand it
do steelseries have support with which to write?
only thing's I can probably say
- Any Drivers? Check those, maybe reinstall it.
- Check the Charge port, check for damage or dust.
- make sure the USB connection to the PC is secure (physically)
the mouse is indeed wireless and is charged via a charging station drivers are all on the newest state it must seem somehow lie on the mouse that the sensor gets too little energy or something
https://support.steelseries.com/hc/en-us here's their support page
The mouse works with the cable, but I did not get it for me
try forcing a driver/firmware reinstall, Different brand but it fixed a few issues I had with a few corsair products that I own, may help here
where can you get in contact with someone or can not write there with a supporter
So try drivers to reinstall? One more question, how do I uninstall it?
Not entirely sure with SS Engine / products
in windows?
Look at the link I sent, look for "submit ticket"
if I click on it nothing happens the page does not want to load
Maybe it's down?
it worked, i will try it so thank you
best of luck :P
Hi Everybody
Does anyone know what settings on my PS4 I have to use for the chat mix to work with my Arctics Pro Wireless?
hello
-++
What's up ever1 new 2 this whole discord app and the website. 2. Actually. Lol what's good doe 💯💯💯
@pseudo grotto there's a youtube vid somewhere explaining it all
Think all you have to do is plug it in via usb then set party chat to come through headset only
If you want surround connect your audio
*optical
And chat mix is accessible on the base station, have to hunt for it though
can someone tell me why no audio is coming from my ps4 to my arctis 7's
its paired, and audio comes from my pc when paired
tf
People, i have a question, if i buy a product, i will have money back guarantee if i dont like the product?
@stray axle i probably have an answer. whats up?
what's the best between : Logitech G305 and Corsair Harpoon RGB Wireless ?
ma dude you come onto a steelseries server asking about the enemies products?!
SMH
i can't buy 150€ for wireless controller (or 109€ i don't remember lol)
but FR, id go with the harpoon. im biased to corsair over logi
steelseries, corsair, razer, logi IMO
from best to worst
ye i know but only 10 000 000 clics and Corsair 50 000 000
That's insignificant
ye and i don't play moba lol
but logi = 10 -11 meters/sec and corsair 2,54m/sec
and what about skids ?
...
@stray axle just choose one company you want to support
ok
they are both reputable so no harm
fine lol
@stray axle when someone looks at your mouse, do you want them to see a logi or a corsair logo?
g305 is better
why ?
it just is
i use a logi acually
g305 will work well then
sure ?
yea
they are both for small hands
^
Evening
😂
Guys😭 😭 😭 help me😭 😭 😭 😭
Corsair > Logitech or Logitech > Corsair ?
Psus ?
What is it psu
(The best server to talk about logitech and corsair is the steelseries' server xD)
So ?
Power Supply Unit = PSU
Aaah ok
some older Corsair PSU's are garbo, their new ones are pretty great
CX Green label, Corsair VS, are pretty poop, the Corsair CX grey label is pretty fantastic, etc
Hey guys!
o/
New here
U guys know when the member madness sale ends?
Lol
Ok
Actually?
Sad
What bout the faze clan bundle
Are they still 21% off or no longer sale for bundle
Sorry if i bother you with my questions i just needa know coz i wanna order em
Ok
The site didnt update yet that its no longer sale but ill take ur word
R u sure it ends today? Its still there 4 me
No response on my support ticket, niice.
When did you submit it and how @jade thunder?
The bot is still in trial, so if it doesn't work please submit a ticket via the website
Sorry, I don't work for SteelSeries, so I don't have access to tickets
You can reference that ticket in the new one on the website
My mouse is broken, the shop I bought it from doesn't exist anymore, the receipt is gone in the wind, i think i'm phooked
Try and ask. They might be able to help
Worst case you'll get a no, best case you get a mouse that works
@jade thunder what mouse is it?
oh ok. i was gonna say you could just buy a new sensor if thats what was broken, but nevermind
How come in the steelseries faze mousepad video its shows the kid is on console
Dangit, my mouse is out of warranty since January 9th of 2019 :c
why the g402 though
what about the g502
or the g403
why are you so obsessed over being "straight"
you remind me of a damn advert that plays at an orthodontist
alright guys, I have a question. I have the steelseries Arctis Pro + GameDAC and I keep heard a REALLY annoying crackling sound when I use them. Anyone know how to fix it? @ me and Ill get back to you tomorrow. As for now, goodnight ! 🌙
I have a laptop and it only crackles when I use discord and a game, or just a game.
@short matrix
I can try but then the mic wont work
@short matrix
My laptop has an audio only headphone jack
It will have to use the crappy laptop mic if i plu it in without the gamedac
plug*
thinking of getting a mousemat, is the qck normal good?
Might as well spend a bit extra to get the stitched edge version
for extra durability
whats the difference between heavy and non heavy?
Heavy is thicker iirc
What do you wanna use it with? @eternal coral
pc
Then you just need to connect the transmitter via USB to your PC
And select the right source on the box
so i select the pc source right
Own a PS4? Watch the setup video at https://youtu.be/e5L5bklDq-Y ALL ARCTIS PRO TUTORIALS ------------------------------------------------- Arctis Pro (PC) -...
Yes
@stark rampart I'm having some problems with my Arctis pro headset but the support bot on here doesn't work as I haven't had any reply from anyone
i watched that but my headphones arent showing up in the sound control area
@radiant verge try making a support ticket on the website and reference your ticket number from here. The discord bot is still in trial
like i hear stuff coming from the box but i dont hear anything coming from my pc
the sound from my pc is coming out of my speakers
i did it
thx
Hey anyone here know if its okay to charge my arctis 7 to a wall charger, ie my phone charger?
Great thank you
@inland python wait
i got that confused
"Sorry for the delay!
You can't really overcharge the headset, because it should stop when it's fully charged. I would recommend charging the headset with the USB cable connected to your PC and not a wall outlet though. I believe this may be the reason why the power LED if not reporting the right color.
It's probably fully charged even though it still shows yellow.
Regards,
Ryan S
SteelSeries Support"
so dont do it lol
i have done it tho ever since i got the headset nearly 2 yrs ago
with only one issue that was easily resolved
the battery indicator light stayed yellow for a long period of time. but it is back to normal now
@inland python ^^
Not really on topic of anything but I found my new favorite GIF
this deserves a crab rave
I recently bought a Rival 105 and a QCK Prism for 66 $.Both of them.Shipping included.
So what do i need to do before setting both of these things up ?
Or it just simply plug and play ? Since my laptop is installed with SteelSeries Engine.
I also planning to buy a Arctis 5 in the next following months.
@stray axle yea just plug and play pretty much. if you have any trouble, there are tons of people in here that are more than happy to help out
haha,yeah pretty much it guys :)))
So any thoughts on the Arctis 5 guys.
Beautiful
Is it good ?
I own a pair, best Christmas gift ever
Audio is 11/10 the mic is a 8.3/10
And the little strap can be washed
Ah okay so i just want to connect it to PC to use its mic.And the RGB strip.
Is it possible ?
You mean only use the mic and not the headphones?
Yup.
Hmm, I am unsure
It is possible on the Arctis 5 ?
Your better off asking a staff member
Okay then where are they tho.
You could ask on the website
But yeah,okay thanks for helping me out my dude.
No problem!
@stray axle If you only want the mic you can do that, you just have to make sure your PC is using whatever other audio endpoint instead of either of the Arctis 5 ones after connecting it
Ah, so you can, go to know!
Okay then,since my laptop's audio is pretty decent on its own.
And the reason i bought it purely for its mic and,RGB lighting :))))
And hey,can i ask you guys another question ?
What's up?
Yeah,i already got my SteelSeries account sign up and customized on my laptop.
So if i connect my newly bought mousepad and mouse,will my setting got carried over ?
My laptop is a MSI.
GT83VR.
Guys ?
@stray axle settings get uploaded to the cloud on a per-device basis, so a new mouse and mousepad aren't going to have any customized settings.
Ah i get it.
I can't wait to get my FaZe mousepad. I've had the same QCK+ pad since 2016 lool
Hey does anyone know if the Steel Series XL controller have menu and start button like Xbox one controller because I need both to open menu and mini map thanks let me know
yes. Both the Stratus XL and Stratus Duo are both fully XInput compatible, so they have all the inputs an XBox controller does
@mellow nymph so the stratus XL the two arrow key is basically the two on Xbox right
yeah
Okay thank you because I game on my pc and none of the other controller seems to have the mini map button
I bought the steelseries nimbus and that didn’t have one lol
yes, well, believe it or not Apple doesn't consider being XBox game compatible to be super important when designing a controller for them 😉
Yeah I have a cloud computer on my iPhone so that’s why I need the controller to play like PC games
And it’s really annoying that you can’t fast travel because you can’t open mini map lol
If there's someone of Steelseries reading, is there a GFUEL mousepad from you? 'Cause i saw one in GFUEL's insta, but i can't find it
@fierce urchin if it's the post from January, I think that was just a concept that has not actually been manufactured (at least yet)
Nope, it's a story that they posted like 5-6 hours ago
Hey is there driver to install with the siberia 200?
i just bought a couple of new headphones steelseries arctis 7 and i wonder how long it takes to charge them to full battery when i use them and when i just load them? Thanks for the help!
@turbid mist hey refeze, it ussually take mine about 2ish hours to go from beeping red to 100%
2hrs from a wall outlet, 3hrs plugged into my computer while off. but 3hrs while in use while plugged into the wall outlet
and they ussually do deliver a solid 24hrs of use time. im am charging mine usually twice a week with heavy use
Hello, how long does it uessaly take to get a response from support bot
24-48hr 😮
:/
Well gonna shoot general question, is there a way to config the keyboard, my question mark among other things does not work
think it has to do with software update or something
Like the keyboard I have is not the same one detected by steelseries engine
Sometimes the support bot doesn't work the best. It's still being tested. You can always send a ticket on the website
the only peripheral I don't have that's SteelSeries is my keyboard sorry cant help ya there :/
yeah I totally understand it's not a big deal @fervent igloo
See bot-command
My questionmark is almost next to backspace
It's the nordic design
However engine, is another design
Actually I think it might be broke,
I've had it for 8years now
Any Steelseries keyboard which have the extra usb ports
[question]
Have you selected the correct keyboard region in SSE @foggy jackal?
What is SEE
The SteelSeries Engine
I'm using a keyboard with a Nordic layout too
The engine displays the US layout per default for me
However I think the shiftkey might be broken
My mouse is coming tomorrow 😎😍
If i press the shift key, other keys stop working or they start to act like another shift key
Like if i spam press shift + [questionmark] then it want to activate sticky keys
Dang. Well if you don't get a response from the bot, try and make a support ticket on the site and reference the ticket number you got here
Also I can't not do capital i with the right shift, only from left shift
Yeah, right shift+i spam = stcky key
right shift + "=" = sticky
Was using this
Alright, @foggy jackal has been warned for 'Posted a link'.
online keyboard tester
t does not recognize the key presses
😦
It was a good 9 years
Test every key on your computer keyboard from within your browser for free.
That's pretty good for a keyboard I'd say
Just out of curiosity, what do you use the extra USB port for?
I haven't really used it for a long time
I don't even think SteelSeries makes any with USB passthrough anymore
the only keyboard i can list off the top of my head with USB passthrough is the FNATIC Streak
And often if they have it, it's USB 2
yep, slow old usb 2.0
Could just get a usb hub,, but i would like to avoid more stuff
Or a headset stand with USB
idea: Glue usb hub onto keyboard
Oh lol
hello, does the rival 300 fade edition is still produced ?
I think you might be able to still find it some places but I don't think it's being made anymore @umbral plinth
Amazon UK have a few left
ok
Might be able to find one on ebay or something like it
There's also the Howl edition, that has a better sensor @umbral plinth
since it's based on the 310 and not the 300
yeah i saw that
I personally like that one
can i bind a cpi shift in the steelseries enigne
yes
hot
So I've been waiting a while for the HS1 Aluminium Headstand to come back in stock on the website, I got notified via emai and everything, great right!? I also have enough reward points to purchase it, again lovely. I then load it up on the website, see actually it's on offer at the moment, £10 off, so now £19.99, thought hmm fair enough.
I go to apply my code so I can order it, then lo and behold I get "The coupon cannot be combined with other promotions". 🙃
Absolute bs.
What is the point in having the reward points/system when you can't use them! What's the betting that now they're back in stock and now on offer that they're all going to be bought up and out of stock again before the offer ends.
Please tell me if I'm overreacting that I can't get free stuff but this has certainly rubbed me the wrong way! 😐
Oh and now I've redeemed by reward points for that code too, I can't spend them on other products available to me 🙂
Hi
Hey @mild lintel - you can contact rewards@steelseries.com if you're unhappy with your coupon choice! However, the fact that the coupon cannot be combined with other promos is not only rewards-program related, but rather an overall practice on our website.
And fairly common everywhere
^
Pizza place I work at wont let ya combine a buy one get one free with a 25% off or a $12 specialty pizza etc.
@mild lintel really do appreciate your feedback - while it is common not to be able to stack promo codes / use them with other promotions, I understand why you would assume that it didn't impact a reward you've already earned. I will take this input and work with our webshop team to make sure we create a better experience for the Squad
Let us know what you need help with and I'm sure someone will try @stray axle
@stark rampart Well the mouse has 3 side buttons, only 2 work, and when you look in the buttons, the two that work have a green thing in ti (Probably the trigger for them) but the other one doesn't have that green thing in it
So I wonder if I somehow need to open that trigger, or idk lmfao
Hmm.. That is a great question @stray axle..
I guess, why would it come with 3 side buttons if they have one deactivated
Is it there to look at or does it actually work somehow
I'm currently on my way home, but when I get there I might be able to help. I have a 650 there
ALrighty
I'd say it should work
That's the wireless one right?
I've heard it sucks, cuz of the charging
I disagree
Oh
You can use it as a cabled version when charging
And I think you get 3 hours of use after 15 minutes of charging
Well only when charging
Alright, @stray axle has been warned for 'Posted an invite'.
Humm...
@fair gyro thanks for the info I'll look into it & @native ravine thanks for the reply too!
Apologies if I came across a bit brash.
😊
@stray axle it's not allowed to advertise other servers in here :)
@mild lintel you're good! I can understand how it must have been a frustrating experience. Our webshop team just disabled the discounts, allowing SteelSquad members to check out with their free rewards. Should be active starting tomorrow - so you still have the weekend if you had been considering moving on one of those sale items
Okay, so i can RMA my Rival 700
But I get a coupon
Now I'm afraid that because the 700 has been superseded by the 710 that I cannot redeem said coupon 1:1
And have to pay extra
Exactly
Nah, I just want the replacement mouse
Well, then you can do that
But, will the coupon be of the same value
ye
Or will I have to pay extra?
enough to buy a Rival 710
And it ships to the netherlands?
it should
For free?
Now comes the hardest part then, destroying a piece of hardware
It'll hurt my tech-heart
Peeling back the mouse buttons feels like peeling back a friend's fingernails
T^T
@jade thunder I can confirm it does it hurt.
Heyyy
@native ravine thank you very much for the help, appreciate it 😊
hello humans
I've been looking into a new headset and I can't find much info on this
I'm trying to decide between the arctis 5 and 7
Can the 7 be used wired? if so, how is the quality as compared to the 5
and can SS still be used?
7 runs off of bluetooth. It connects to a usb plugged into the device. 7 is a wireless mic so regardless you would have to charge it
hol up
did steelseries just start a sale?
I was scrolling through their site
and now theres a 30% off thing
oh
member madness
in that case ill try to get arctis pro no gamedac
but
dad doesnt like spending on sites that arent amazon
@mild lintel the promo pricing has been disabled now, so that you can check out with your free reward if you like. Happy it was such an easy fix
and again thanks for flagging it
@warped willow You're right! We have a special seasonal sale going which ends this weekend. All you gotta do is login / create an account with us which is free of charge.
ah
let me double confirm, sec
It's a solid choice. You get a lot of our top tech in a affordable package. The wireless technology in it came from our previous flagship model Siberia 800 ($300 headset) and you got the nice steel finishes on the headband etc.
im just checking in with our support team now
I know the steel is definitely more durable.
coming from 2 plastic headsets
both of which the mic has gone quiet
So I'll be sending this pair back today
its just, battery life is a concern, and I know it tends to diminish over time
(this pair isnt steelseries)
Sucks - however it does happen with consumer electronics! We're not entirely perfect either to be honest but the Arctis line is very 'tried and true' at this point, so you shouldn't experience issues. That said, you also get easier support from us in the event some kind of failure happens because they can easily reference our own webshop orders
Right
So yeah
I mean, to be fair
I've also read the 5 and 7 arent different apart from build and wired/wireless
on the site, it's the exact same price... the 7 is like 5 dollars more.
today it is anyways
Yup you're right. You get the same mic, speaker drivers, cushions etc
with 5 you get the chatmix dial and rgb
with 7 you get wireless and steel headband
basically
This is absolutely not funny, delete this immediately or my lawyer will be in contact.
onoe
@warped willow did you have a look at the Arctis Pro?
i know its like $30-40 extra
I'd be glad to get it if my dad let me spend extra money
haha, no reason to not treat yourself with some good gear. But i understand the budget concerns
I was doing photoshop gigs for webshops and earning a bit on the side at your age. The internet is a wonderful place 😉
except im terrible at ps lol
the only way ive made money is going on MC servers i played as a kid
getting pvp kills and winning p2w items
and selling them back to owners
lol.
thanks for your help.
:D
support just confirmed that you can use Arctis 7 wired - both headphone and mic
fyi
ooh
meh
idk might stick with arctis 5
because im gentle with my stuff
AND RGB
@warped willow did you get all your questions answered? if not, i have the arctis 7 so i might be able to help with anything
I think so
👌 cool
actually
i do have a question @long pagoda
but
well
how strong is the cable physically
i let my tiel sit on me
and he bites stuff
It's a regular silicone sleeve cable as you get with most headsets. However, if the cable breaks you can get replacement cables off of our site
so cable dies, only the cable dies. Not the entire headset
oh yeah
because its detachable
@native ravine does the mic work while still in the socket, and how reduced is the sound quality if so (arctis 5)
@warped willow the cable is pretty "strong". nothing exceptional or crazy, but its durable. like crash said, just the regular silicon sleeve.
and what do you mean by detached?
there is a charging cable and a audio 3.5mm jack
hmm
the 3.5mm? or the charging one?
both
yes, the arctis 7 works completely wirelessly
k
like no wires at all (during the duration of the battery)
oh ok
because then i dont need to worry about battery
i made my choice with the 7 because TBH, you really cant even see the RGB, and wireless is huge for me.
I prefer wired. In terms of convenience, neither really matter
wireless doesnt impact me much
or wired
ok, i understand that.
is the SteelSeries app not working for anyone else
@pure delta its works fine for me

@native ravine sorry to bother you again but I'm still getting the same message come up when trying to redeem my reward 😣 I've sent off an email to the address @fair gyro with the relevant screenshots explaining my issue 🙁
Have you tried creating a support ticket?
does the sensei raw spin out?
Just a question, will SteelSeries ever introduce a controller case/bag anytime soon? I would love to take my Stratus Duo with me, without ya know... throwin it in my bookbag :(
steam://run/240/
does anybody have the arctis pro wireless? why does the mic pick up EVERYTHING?
@mild lintel let me DM you
Hi folks, does anyone here have a Siberia 840? Hoping someone here can help me test something:
- Have Headset connected to PC
- Have headset connected to your mobile phone via bluetooth
- Make a phone call on your mobile (just call your voicemail or something)
- Hangup the phone call
- Does your microphone still work on your PC? or do you get complete silence
If so, resolve problem by turning headset back off and on again
I have this issue and I am thinking it's a firmware issue that affects all headsets, so hoping a couple people can test this for me. Thanks 😃
Hmm, might want to ask your wallet.
dem
they gotcha there
@stray axle check amazon, look for refurbished 110s
new ones are like 30$
Hey there everyone! So I just picked up a set of the Arctis 5s and I’m having issues with the engine? Once it’s installed it says I still need to download something else to get it to work. And then my entire PC freezes and only a hard restart works..
Anyone else have this issue?
Well I got it working finally. But what is causing things to freeze is whenever I click “additional software for this device is required”
it looks like win 10 pro N doesnt support steelseries engine. weird.
after fresh installation of normal version it works fine
you mean fresh install of win 10? or the normal version of the engine?
logitech has an option in their settings to go to the previous tab in your browser. does steelseries have something like that? i couldn't find it
i tried making a macro but it just keeps looping forever https://i.imgur.com/mNGCL0N.gifv
OOF
I love the arctis pro and gamedac!! I got it for christmas!!
mine crackles and its very annoying
ググググ
guys ?
Logitech G305 or HyperX Pulsefire Surge ? I don't take the Steelseries Rival 310 cause of glue for grip right and left is bad quality (what I hear)
whatever you want
please :(
ok here's some stuff
Wireless or RGB Lighting
Smaller or Larger
Which shape do you want
yo dudes
yo 😄
I love how some people start convos here then just stop replying leaving the other on seen 😂
It happens 🤷
Will my rival 600's cable fit on the Zowie Camade bungee
new earcups for the arctis pro?
Hello currently the microphone of my headphones are not recognized on my computer you have a solution (Arctis 7)
?
probleme resolved
Roomie’s video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojvqIumZtnU Dave’s BTS video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E_1fspZQ4c Stream “Congratulations”: http://hy...
I must be too old for that stuff 😬
@stray axle do you mean the entire earcup or the foam inside the airweave?
Ive been wondering, can you dye / paint the airweave ear cups / head band?
I don't know about paint, it would probably ruin the texture and breathability of the airweave. And if you were painting the headband you'd have to pick something that would deal with the stretchiness well. But I would imagine most dyes would be fine
but honestly I don't believe it's something we've tried at the office, since we're usually dealing with changing the paint or dye at the factory level, not aftermarket
yes !@high bough
@mellow nymph does that mean more booster packs are on the way for the Arctis?😉
I'd love to say yes, but I honestly don't know for sure. Not my department
monday done and dusted
apex m750 tkl is the best
imo the M750 is far from the best, but the software accompanying it is some of the best
what the best rival 310 or sensei 310 ?
personally most keyboards just don't have what i'd want
so i won't be getting an Apex M750
Ok i think i will buy sensei 310
alrighty then
Hey guys
hello there
Do you happen to know if the Arctis 5 has leather or other animal products? thanks
The arctis 5 is just steel, plastic and fabric
Yeah, I doubt there's any animal products in pretty much any SteelSeries product
Alright thanks guys
Can confirm what Lennart is saying. The only product that has natural materials is our QcK mousepads (which is why they sometimes are a little smelly coming out of the pack). The bottom is natural rubber
yo couple of questions
my artctis pro chat makes the right ear less loud than the left
but
my arctis pro game makes both equal
this whole time ive had arctis pro chat and i didnt have any problems till now
i also figured out that on the arctis pro game the left ear is still slightly louder and its annoying and frustrating
Hi
Hello! Where can I find the rival 106 mouse?
Hmm, I've just had an RMA approved for my SIberia 840s which are faulty, they say they'll give me the MSRP of the Siberia 840s, but steelseries no longer sells the Siberia 840s
Does anyone know exactly how much credit they'd give me? I don't wanna end up with a voucher and no headset
The best way to find out would be to ask them
yea, I realised the RMA instructions say to tell them if they are out of stock, so I did that
Great :)
