hello team
I want to buy a new Steel Series Product that can help attend to my needs
OH it must also include Red Switches
or Browns I dont mind
Just not Blue
hi
i want to buy the steelseries rgb mousepad, but i really dont know if i should do it.
I am doubting about buying the steelseries xl mousepad RGB, or if i should buy the Logitech G640.
I mean, all the pros are using the g640 mousepad, but the steelseries XL mousepad RGB is so nice.
So what should i do, i mean is the steelseries RGb XL mousepad a good one, or is it not that good.
Can someone help me?
RGB isn't something that helps in anyway in gaming or in some work project and it is for aesthetic reasons so you can buy a mousepad without the RGB
BUT the Logitech G640 can only fit your mouse and might not be the best choice for gaming because you don't have a lot of space to move your mouse
If the QcK prism cloth fits your desk and setup you should go for it
You what
depending on your needs and prefrences I would suggest you buy the Apex 7 which is on sale for 150€
or the apex pro which is also a good keyboard but it doesn't have the switches you mentioned
It fits my desk, but is it good for aim games?? like is the mousepad REALLY good?
I have played with steelseries mousepads in internet cafes and from the 900hours I have in total with those mousepads they were pretty good
I also have a question
Should I buy the apex pro?
I have had the apex 5 for over a year and I want to step up my game
idk man i dont really know much about keyboards man..
i think the apex pro is good tho
For those who have Arctis Wireless Pro, is there a way to control the chatmix within your headset and not within the transmitter?
Xie he un piao piao
What's the best mouse and keyboard on Steelseries?
Hi :)
Hey
where are the sonar channels?
Only shown to those with the beta tester role right now
time to get my package
how do i get the role? i had an email saying to join the sonar channels after doing a survey?
You can't, it's early access rather than beta testing
Not sure if it's intentional that they're unavailable
hmm weird but ok
Hold up
lol got deleted
lol i wouldnt
Ok fine
Hi, I come with this question because I have a flooded apex 5 keyboard or should I buy new switches, because some buttons, if I click, it either sucks or
he wouldn't act or what else should I do
I could get new switches
Idk
hey guys
is there any owner of an Apex Pro KB who wants to help me with some questions? i'm considering buying it
i'd like to know how "heavy" keys are
i'm currently using a low profile logitech g815 keyboard, coming from razer keyboards who are like heavy af
They're very light, relative to other springs
The little dial does it, click it down and it'll switch to the chat mix
what i fear the most is that it'll be a pain to press them, i don't want much resistance
They're linear with 45g actuation, light by most people's standards
ok nice
how's the software?
i actually got hooked into steelseries when i first downloaded steelseries GG for clips, and it's really nice
so i wanted to give a try to steelseries products
idk if engine is nice too
It's good enough for me
what are your general opinions on the apex pro?
Hey, where is the chan or section for sonar ? thanks ! 🙂
Engine is good, had one glitch that annoyed and when it was fixed I've had no problems since
Beta tester roles can see it
Guys how to make disco mode on the apex pro my msi laptop have one and it a steelseries too so I was wonder how to make the same effect with my apex pro
It for fun
Not for all the time cause it would be annoying
Hi, I come with this question because I have a flooded apex 5 keyboard or should I buy new switches, because some buttons, if I click, it either sucks or

You'll be hard pressed to replace the switches
My dad is getting me a Qck prism cloth and Arctis 3 wireless for my birthday :)
nice
one thing
be careful with the arctis
and be gentle with it
the connection between the cup and the headband is really fragile
but otherwise the audio is great and its super comfortable
How can i have this roles ? (I have sonar) thanks in advance 😄
I don't think we're giving it out right now
Ok, because steelseries send me with a mention : you can check the channel sonar on discord
But thanks for answers !
Im currently paying of my new phone but once i oay it off i plan on buying the apex pro tkl, xl prism mouse pad, and black prism caps. Or should i get the white ones i would like a opinion on which looks better
That's entirely up to you
oh boy
I think black would go better with the case being black so ill prob go with those just to be safe
Also my cart isnt savng so thats fun
should I get the gamedac?
since it's on a really good sale
Hey guys, i have the arctis pro wireless, and just installed everything... But i cant seem to find sonar anywhere?
anyone have a clue?
i think its for arctis pro only
Wait does anyone know the difference between the apex 7 tkl and apex pro tkl
All im seeing is switch type
Ok thank you
Thanks for the reply, but is there any setting where if I select chat mix, it stays there? After not doing any action for a long time, it tends to go back to the main screen and the knob or even the headset control switches back to the volume
Hello, does anyone have a recoil macro script for steelseries mouse ?
bruh
I think it would be smart to not ask for that in the officail steelseries discord
- there isn't a universal script for all shooter games or games that feature gun recoil
- Get good at the game rather than trying to get a script
- get a life
some games like pubg you can't shoot with your hands and you die Because your all enemy have macro Of course your stupid You do not understand what I mean
I just need recoil macro script If anyone has any news, thank you
There a way I can sync my keyboard to wallpaper engine or is there no current app for that? Asked this yesterday but never got a response.
get good
are you kidding me?
Probably not, but a program like OpenRGB may have some kind of integration like that
You can make ur own
Using the api
Also true

hmm hi hows everybody doin
This just perpetuates the problem. "everyone else is cheating so I will too", except that's not really true
what is the prime cup stream steelseries is talking about
in other words what time are apex codes droppin tm
Only if you feel the need to
Turn off hdr?
I can't while gaming
Pretty sure you can
this right here
naw bro, just practice at the game and get better rather than cheating
all that aside you need to get a life
Und von paar Monaten hats noch funktioniert
I would like to connect my mousepad with cs go so that I can see how many ammunition I still have .., have configured it and turned on cs go gamsense but still doesn't help
And from a few months it still worked
the mimi is in you
Your german right
…
hmmmm
tbh idk, they are 2 different types of keyboards however

It use steelseries software both of them
By the way
It do not use mystic light
Only steelseries gg
Hey quick question

You can see your pings in your inbox
Because of my free sync and HDR I can't play on 144 hz
They delite the msg after

Oh, okay
Thought you can tell me
Sorry

also can we trade codes here?
is it allowed?
Nope
I like to slap my apex pro
What
I can do 165hz with hdr
no
Hi there, just a question, will SteelSeries release an Arctics 9+?
Yeah
Don't buy AEROX 3. Latest firmware requires PC usb port to charge so its wired mouse. It will partly work as wireless. Steelseries said its "feature" and not a bug but previous firmware did not have this bug. Whatever i do not recommend buying wireless mouse if it only works as wired mouse. Charging from external source will force you to manually turn your mouse off and on again after charging since it goes into SLEEP mode while charging from external source and wont connect to PC afterwards.
i cant even listen to stuff loudly
because my headphones just crackle so much
when i have load audio and its so annoying
but no one will help me
Hi
Merhaba, arctis 5 alacağım ama kafa bandının rengini ayarlamayı göremedim ?
Guys
how do i make my keyboard and mouse go back to normal
after i got a gamesense notification
from discord
it just turns off all leds after like 5 seconds
Hello i have a arctis 9x and i lost charging cable for it do you recommend any brands to buy it again
@inland hollow
or maybe a wire to buy
Idk man sorry, I do it so often I can navigate to the chatmix section on the transmitter so quickly it don't bother me
Hi
Also cause of freesync
So ur pc is trash and cant get good fps?
Who
Yours? A because you should be able to get 165 hz with freesync
#archive-user-support someone help pls
hi
Hello :)
hey can u help me ?
hi
Use #archive-user-support or create a #official-support ticket
Trade what?
the free codes that steelseries provided
That's a great question and feels like we'd need an adult for that. But for now I'd avoid it
👍
bro
holy shit
ive been setting up arctis pro for the last 3 hours
i cant hear shit
sitting here waiting for apex codes
You can't, no.
Hi. I would just like to ask if someone with Arctis 3 cant use mic in Windows 10
got it
Turkish Translate Please.
Those are... very different items
Yup!
I just have problems deciding wether to upgrade my mouse or to buy a gamedac
Like im still not sure what the gamedac really does
Ah i figured it out
Mouse it is
What time does Apex legends - escape pack coming out for the giveaway to be on the safe side?
Unannounced. Follow their twitter to be notified is all they say.
Still 💀 but yeah I been following them. I surprised nobody answered that question in their post
It's meant to be ambiguous
So I was checking my sound settings in windows and something along the lines of Steelseries Sonar was an option. I don’t own a Steelseries headset yet?
Guys
When I put my pc in sleep mode
And turn it back on
My keyboard doesn’t work
Until I unplug
?
You don't need a steelseries headset to utilise sonar
Oh ok, is it any good?
Ok guessing that automatically showed up cause I have gg downloaded
Sure, does what it says on the box
Is it just an EQ?
Cause I don’t really know how to set an EQ well
Oh surround sound.
Plus some other stuff I guess
So if you have a steelseries headset would you use sonar or dts?
Considering DTS 2.0 is one of the big selling points.
I found my qck! :)
Anybody knows when is the apex legends giveaway?
Anyone know why my keyboard sometimes doesnt work and other times it just spams random keys i have a apex pro tkl
When is the apex legends code drop ffs
u may want to return it
no
oh no
i broke my only rule
?
I accidentally pinged u :(
its alr
really random but i was able to reach 11 cps drag clicking with the rival 3
amazing mouse, love it
nice
should i get rival 600 or logitech g502
Rival 600
K
Guys I love my rival 3 wireless but replacing the battery’s are kind of annoying
Any other options I should get?!
In that price range all the mice will have that
Well my price range is about 100
If you're planning to buy this month the Rival 650 Wireless is on sale on the website for $80, although it is considerably bigger and heavier than the Rival 3
is there a setting for the apex 3 where it lights up whenever you press it like the apex pro except for a 10-zone?
Ok
650 wireless is my fav
too expensive for me tho
Anyone know when the steelseries tkl wrist wrest will be back in stock?
Nobody knows
I upgraded to it from a Rival 310 I've been using for like 4 years lol. I was kind worried about the weight difference but overall it's great. Still hoping they'll release a Rival 5 wireless though because that would be an instant buy from me
I tried the 650 at best buy and i loved it. It fit just right. The only thing more comfortable was the mx master 3
Does anyone have the apex pro TKL
tkl keyboards scare me
Dnt worry the wooting 60HE is the new best keyboard
Double rainbow outside let's go
Try the basilisk v3
guys im thinking of going wireless and getting the rival 650, should i, id love to stick with steelseries
hello everyone
Hay!
guys, can you change the debounce time on a rival 3?
no
Hey guys anyone knows when will the apex escape pack key will drop?
Nobody knows
Fr lmao
I have tried the basilisk, but i prefer the 650
Also there is no wireless basilisk v3
Good Morning Everyone, I am in need of help I bought the Arctis 7 Headset for the PS5, I went to charge them last night when the light was blinking red i noticed that the charging light turned off but when i turned the headset on the light was still red! its been like that for a few days its starting to piss me off! Any Help will be helpful.
Thank you I sent it there
yeah, no
My mouse has a non-man-made quality problem, can only be repaired, there is no new service, this is ridiculous

If there's an issue with your mouse then make a ticket through #official-support
I tried to open a tik for a product problem, but he redirected me to the original selection interface
And the new product is not on the list!
Use the black chat box icon in the bottom right corner and type "create ticket"
Got my arctis 1 today from newegg.com and it arrived
I'm actually really surprised
I like it
How good is Arctis 7 microphone?
My arctis 1 is great as well
I'm ready to throw in the towel with SS. I've had a ticket in since 11/3 because I don't even use Sonar but it keeps installing itself as my default audio playback and recording device.
Has anyone used Cortex/iCue recently? Are they better? Do they have as much bloatware?
I just want to use my RGB and set up macros. I don't need SS trashing my system settings every time I fire it up 🙃
Anyone able to help me out with an issue I've got?
if you have pre-2021 hardware you can just go back to an older version of Engine and you won't need to upgrade unless you get new hardware
hi
I'm waiting to get new stuff until they fix GG, and if that doesn't happen I'll probably switch to MSI's OEM stuff or maybe go the Corsair route as well. or mix and match off of aliexpress cuz my wallet already has anorexia and doesn't need to get any thinner 🙃 .
hello
@stray axle I think iCUE is bloated, it's like 800 MB, I didn't like it that much the few days I had my Corsair headset.
I'm on the verge of buying an Arctis 7, but it's about $100 more than I've ever spent on a headset.
I'd say research TF out of it. With headphones unless it's audiophile quality you are just sort of paying for the brand
honestly I think the main draw of the Arctis line is the comfortable design and the mic, the rest of it you can pretty much find equivalents for elsewhere. They're also easy to use and (mostly) work like they're supposed to
I use the budget version of the Razer headsets and they work like a champ with all my hi fi sound programs(i edit film and do animation/sound design).
I would have kept the Corsair Void Elite if I hadn't been forced to use EqualizerAPO just so people could hear me in Discord.
I rode my Void Pro 2's into the ground. I loved that they actually sold replacement parts and that it was easy to work on.
Only swapped to SS/Razer after the software went to crap
The Arctis 7 wil be the 4th wireless headset I've tried in the past 30 or so days. 1st one was great but with bad mic, 2nd had a good mic, but the ear cups were so small it hurt to wear the headset, 3rd was the Corsair Void.
I liked it, my only problem was it was HEAVY
But it also didn’t break and I dropped it a ton
I have a friend with razer kraken. Dont buy. Horrible.
If you don't like the Arctis 7 I would recommend giving the Creative SXFI Air Gamer a go, I've got the normal ones and they're really good for the price. can't say if the mic on the gamer version is any good but Creative Labs have been in the sound business for a long time and they know what they're up to.
once you set up the software once you never need to open it again
The arctis headphones are really comfy
that's probably the main selling point, yep
Try them at best buy before u buy
in Europe sometimes Saturn or MediaMarkt will have them to test as well, but only rarely.
I wish they made the arctis 7 with new drivers
Most of the SS gear is kinda due for a refresh tbh
Apex Pro been out how many years without a revision now?
most keebs would be discontinued by now, or significantly upgraded
Gas in LA hit 5 bucks a gallon
ouch
I remember a time not too long ago where 2.50 a gallon was considered expensive
I have done a lot of research, but I can only go through so many videos, reviews, & forum posts. I can always return it, I'll probably buy it in a few days.
Hello guys
new to the steelseries but am not liking how it automatically has discord functions
i dont want the thumb buttons to move me up and down in discord. As a matter of fact I dont want them to do anything but funtion as a mouse button
what am i doing wrong
Seems like Mouse 3 goes up and Mouse 4 goes down a channel. I hate that as I have never had that on a mouse before
I use Mouse4 to transmit
@lunar knoll discord has defaulted the thumb buttons as back and forward just like your browser. When you click away from a DM to go to a discord server, clicking the back thumb button will bring you back to that DM. Do you use mouse4 for push to talk?
yes sir, but no mouse I ever had did that beforee
usually use logitech and they always work as forward and back as mouse 3 and 4 so this is new to me
Buttons are almost in the same position as my logitech g502 hero but function totally different in regards to discord
Yeah when i used mouse4 as push to talk even with my razer basilisk v2 it wanted to bring me back in another channel when I tried to talk or even while using my browser. It should work like that on all mice i don't really know why it is like that on your specific mouse
What mouse do you have
rival5
also im noticing even after binding B9 to mouse 4 it still doesnt detect in discord (sounds similar to how you had it)
So you have set the back thumb button as push to talk right?,
trying to yes
Well what if you try setting the metallic thumb button as push to talk
What i did to fix the issue though is to set the push to talk on the front thumb button. So that way it doesn't bring me back to other text channels or webpages
ya, thats seems to be the only way to work it
i cant even set Button 8 (the thumb button in the center) to be detecteed
I think that's defaulted to dpi shifting
So when you press that, it shifts your dpi to a lower level for sniping and when you take your thumb off the button it switches to the default dpi you have set
quick question, do I need to have an account to make and store macros on the sensi 310 mouse onboard memory?
Hey @sinful sail Im going to try to jump in BF2042 and Vanguard and see if it affects my gameplay. I dont mind messing with the discord PTT but this i gotta know
lol
thank you so much
No prob bro
Lemme resend my question since it got burried lol
I have been thinking of purchasing the arctis 5 2019 edition. I'm replacing my nari ultimates since i don't really use the haptic feedback thingy, the wireless style just isn't really worth it anymore since charging is a hassle. Any thoughts on the arctis 5 2019s?
they're good, they work and have a solid build, and RGB if you're into it. If you're looking for the next level tho I'd go for the wired Pros + GameDAC, the quality is pretty epic (and they're on sale right now).
You can also get just the Pros on their own, which have the same ChatMix dial as the 5 but you get the nicer features of the actual Pro headset, ie the metal band, interchangeable sideplates, and High-Res drivers
So basically just the pros are the same as the 5 but with 40.000 Hz
and sideplates and metal headband
I mean i don't really care about the side plates they are on my head anyways so i don't really see them except from when I'm not wearing them
and for some reason the default airweave cusions on the Pros are different from the ones that come on the 5s and the 3s, dunno if this is because I bought them at seperate times, but the ones for the Pros are nicer
I use 3rd party Velour anyway, and leather before that, so if you change your cushions it won't matter
I find the headband on the Pros is nicer than the way they have it on the 5s also
I mean, in Greece where i live the arctis 5 are 100 euros and the pros without the DAC are 170
But i can order them from the official steelseries website for 133
that would be the recommended place to buy them because of the sale right now
honestly the differences are mostly pretty minor, if you're not an audiophile the 5s are probably close enough to the Pros that you wouldn't notice a ton of difference.
I just recommend the pros if you're looking for that next level of sound
esp. w/the DAC
I have the nari utlimates so basically wireless audio kinda sucks anyways but I'm used to it lol
then no matter what you choose it's gonna be better
Yeah lol
But you know what I am concerned about?
Aren't the 5s i think like 20.000hz?
My nari ultimates are 20 to 20 too so basically wired so either way it's gonna be better audio
In windows it says 48k Hz though
Oh wait
well the range is the theoretical max and min of the drivers, you don't necessarily get that full range with everything
I'm dumb lol
So @sinful sail just wanted to update you. Apparently Mouse3 is still working as my zoom, but also is my PTT key in discord so it does seem to work but not quiet as intended
that's sample rate not sound frequency
Yeah i just realized that lol
I mean just don't use push to talk lol😂 I find it kinda annoying sometimes anyways
It's 4:56 am btw xd
no worries
im run a gaming community and we have folks on discord doing BF, CoD:MW, Cold War, vanguard, hell still ghost recon so I kinda need it
im sorta the founder lol
Supposedly the back/forward stuff in discord was fixed in a patch, but obviously not. Only work around is binding those keys to a Keystroke, then setting that in game
that seems to work but I use almost all 101 keys
human hearing is 20 to 20k (in theory goes from 12 to 28k in perfect conditions) so really the added range in the Pros is unnecessary, but will add some realism to the sound, ie explosions and clanging about are a bit more crisp in the highs and the bass seems deeper and fuller because you're getting into infrasound territory. With music it's far more notable than in gaming, but if your motherboard doesn't have good sound drivers you'll need the DAC for the full experience (TBH motherboard sound has become very good in recent years so if your PC is newer or has a sound card it won't matter as much).
I have a gigabyte ga-ax370m-ds3h so I'm good but the cable from the headset,goes in the game-chat dial, and then that connects to the pc through usb right?
It's weird how they got that set up lol
Yeah it isn't fixed for me either lol
yeh, you can use the dial with USB (has a mini DAC in it I think) or you can go straight to 3.5mm with the adapter if you want the analog straight out of your PC
A
Yeah I'm gonna use the dial since I count on that feature lol
So yeah i think i am going to get the 5s
Thank you for your help dude you are the best!
sure thing
No
Also, drivers are different on the pros
ok
how do I use steelseries sonar
you turn it on
SteelSeries customer support for me in a nutshell
me: i need a new headset
SteelSeries: ight sayless
3 days later: your order has been shipped
probably why i continue to use their products. in my country if i bought something and it doesn't work i get told that its my fault and im stuck with a broken product. no replacement nothing
How long does it take to ship my items from warehouse i ordered kn weekend and still proccesing
And i picked express shipping
mine usually ships in about 3 days or less tho i noticed they took a little longer to ship my reciever
transmitter*
steelseries does not operate on weekends
Hopefully they send jt today
wednesday for the latest
Yeah

Thx
yw bro
HI any way i can get suuport on a product by talking to a member of the team?
Do you not have faith in us? we might be able to help as well
Oh sorry I wasn’t sure how it worked in here!
hey @agile dirge im gonna actually get the wired pros with the dac. my best friend agreed to lend me some money for it!
I am from greece, in the EU they ship from a warehouse in denmark so i am not going to pay for any customs right?
yo can someone who knows alot about pcs dm me?
If it is being shipped from EU, then probably not
And i think you only pay customs if SS wont ship it and you have to import it
Maybe someone knows this - I've searched up and down - There are a lot of great deals on the Steelseries shop and some labeled as great Christmas presents, but is there prolonged return policy on these items? All I can find is the 30 day normal return policy, but that is not really feasible for Christmas presents.
did someone order from the EU? did they have to pay customs or such?
i mean i dont want to pay for customs out of the blue😆
Awesome bro! If it's shipping from Denmark there's no customs. I ordered an Apex Pro while I was living in Germany and didn't run into any issues so you shouldn't either.
Im pretty sure there are no customs if u buy from Steelseries website in your localization
Nice! I'm going to order then tomorrow and i am so excited!
For example: if i buy something, i dont pay customs, but i live in the US, if i bought something in france, i also wouldnt pay customs
Yeah the VAT should already be included
But, if i bought something in france, using the US website, i would have to pay to import it and vice versa
so basically, where i live i think the vat is 24% so thats already included in thefinal price?
Well in the US we can order from anywhere and as long as it's less than $2500 or for personal use we never pay customs because we don't have VAT here.
Yep, should be
nice how long did it take to get to you when you lived in germany>
I've lived in Spain, Germany, and the US so I've run into the shipping and customs issues fairly frequently, but as Flare says, if you order off one of the European SteelSeries locales, ie you see a price in EUR, you won't have any problems. I ordered off the German and Spanish locales and never had an issue
Bout a week if I remember correctly, but that was way before COVID
SteelSeries doesn't fill orders over the weekend usually unless they're just really backed up so you'll likely get a confirmation today or tomorrow
Thank you 🙂
Sometimes the confirmation doesn't work btw, I've received things before I ever got a tracking link. Dunno if they fixed that yet
That was back when they were having a ton of problems with the warehouse computer system. I think that's all been fixed now
good to hear
I got confirmations for all the stuff I ordered back in April
cant wait to try my new keyboard apex pro 😮
Does anybody here use a Razer or Elgato webcam?
I'm specifically looking at the Facecam and Kiyo Pro as I'm looking to step up to 1080p 60 FPS.
Just trying to see if anybody likes them or if there are better 1080p 60fps options.
I have the Facecam and I 100% think it's worth it for the price
@agile dirge thank you so much bro you helped me so much!🙏🙏🙏
Quality is also better than the Razer
Sure thing 👍
Someone from here have apex pro keyboard?
Maybe, #archive-user-support
Is aerox larger than rival 3 or smaller
I’m leaning toward Facecam.
Heads up for peeps though. Kiyo Pro is on sale on Amazon atm.
$149.99
That’s what got me comparing webcams
hey every one
hey
im looking for this but its out of stock over months, how can i get them i don t want a new mouse mine are going off :/
Wait for them to be in stock
Chances are if they're out of stock on the website they'll also be out of stock at places like Amazon but it wouldn't hurt to check just in case
my artics 5 mic isnt working help
im looking for months from time to time nothing in stock guess i have to buy a new mouse, that would be a waste. amazon is also not listing that item :/
If your pads aren’t warped you can use some 3M spray adhesive to reattach them. Haven’t done it in a SS mouse but I’ve done it in the past for mice w/o replacements to order.
Just spray the pad, not the mouse 🧠
i will give a try that may work hopefully
Just noticed the rival 500 seems to have been pulled? Was looking to get another due to liking my current one but no dice. Is it gone for good, and seemingly without replacement?
Anyone have arctis 7 wireless headset? Is it just more or cam you not set windows to 7.1 so that games give DTS more audio channels to work with?
Still on the store in the US so maybe just out of stock where you are? It's a new release as of this year, I'd expect it to stay for several years based on its predecessors
Is there a similar product? Got so used to button placement.
the rival 5 is the replacement version
but the design is much different
Dang, missing the good buttons sadly.
it is not the replacement, its just the mouse we have with the most buttons atm
Ahhh.
the 500 was a straightforward MMO mouse, the 5 is kind of a jack of all trades
here comes alan with his demands again
I really need to make sure to buy multiple of a good mouse... This keeps happening. :<
ahahah not those unfortunately

it definitely doesnt have the same button placements, but i know a lot of people are fans of the corsair mmo mouse
Why must my dreams be CRUSHED!?!
just be more realistic jeez
yo its ben
yo it is
OwO
havent seen him in a while
Bruh who is this Ben guy? Kinda sussy ngl

ive got a new pc coming soon B)
Ben you should stop being such a sussy baka
yoo i just got my new pc in ben we'll be twinsies
#twinning
whats it got inside it
too niche, we need an MMO/MOBA that needs a special mouse to take off like Fortnite did and stay popular before we'll see another, that's my bet.
Imagine not doing photoshoots with your PC
i do the newborn photoshoots with mine
Good
noice
rival 3, apex 3, arctis 3 to go with?
ahaha no the only thing with a 3 in my set up is the aerox 3 wireless ghost
Engine 3?
f3 numpad 3 and 3?
:]
m3?
3% keeb?
lolol
E could be a 3
Oops only 3s
ive got a c on it which is the third letter in the alphabet
flip keycap upside down
noice
& my mobo is the x570 pro which x is the third letter from the end of the alphabet
so
another 3
: - )
and all together will probably cost just a bit more than $333
USB 3.3 Gen 3
noice
had to get ddr4 didnt you 🙄
i know i know i messed it up with wanting more speed
coulda just downloaded more ram instead
unbelievable
not just him, a wireless mmo mouse with the same texture as the Prime wireless would be juicy, the grip tapes are a pain to deal with
mine doesnt have a common number D:
a wireless mmo mouse would be nice
could literally make the prime wireless one by just putting it a swappable side plate like razer's new naga
ooh i do like the swappable side plates that razer is doing
they probably have a patent on it but its neat
i like that corsairs has the moveable side panel as well
Congrats! 
i did use it for a short time, but the software threw me off again
and i gotta tell u
depending on the class i was playing
it was amazing to swap my plate
modularity, who doesn't love it?
barely any peripheral companies actually have good software
im just a fan of when companies put a spin on a common product
Engine used to be good :/
yep :/
well i swapped all of stuff to steelseries back in 2019, been a razer/logitech user until then
and so far even with GG i dont have issues
i only ever used corsair pre steelseries
icue was ehhhh mostly fine
im not picky though
SS was my first and only :]
but then again, i might not have issues because im the type of person who doesnt tinker too much with settings all the time
usually spending 1-2 days to get it all sorted out and never touching it
well until I decided on a keychron for travel but that doesn't count
the only thing i have not swapped yet is my casual outdoor headphones
maybe in the future SS comes out with lifestyle bluetooth headphones like razer did with opus
i just got the pixel buds with my phone so thats my new out & about earbuds i guess lol
are they decent?
theyre pretty comfortable, & i normally do not like earbuds at all which is nice, quality seems fine, good enough lol im not super picky when it comes to stuff along as it works
Need a new pair, was looking at them
i havent had any issues with it that at all
ive also only had them for about a week, so its possible itll change but theyve been decent so far
i guess this version is worse than the old gen pixel buds but i got them because i preordered my pixel 6, so i was just kinda excited to get "free" pair of true wireless earbuds
these are my first true wireless & i was nervous at first but im enjoying it
i feel that, i was nervous when i bought my first wireless headset as well
also send my regards to the person in the office that came up with the new dota 2 mousepad at TI 10 
Plz
does PrismSync support apex 3 tkl keyboards? im wondering bc it looks really cool
ik no one asked but i got it from tryit
Hmm, still can't seem to turn off the back / forward function for discord on my steelseries rival 500. So annoyed
Theoretically yes, it just won't look very good because of the zoned RGB on the Apex 3 instead of per key lighting on the other boards
just got my apex pro does anybody know how do I settup???
download the software for it
well then how do i download the software for prismsync?
the link also applies for your keyboard
I did it and still nothing
Oh my bad I'm dumb I thought you were asking about ImageSync. Prism sync just allows multiple SteelSeries devices to share the same RGB pattern. Inside GG go to Engine, then click on Apps then find PrismSync and choose a pattern
also i just wanted to know how to sync my music
Unless you have a SteelSeries mouse or an Arctis 5/Pro then there's no reason to use it vs just setting a pattern through the regular engine settings
i have a bunch of music downloaded and ready
For that you would use the Audio Visualizer app but like ImageSync it likely won't look the best because the Apex 3 doesn't have per key illumination. The RGB effects are dividing into 3 zones across the keyboard
@keen pine do you know how to settup apex pro?
I used it before, it looks decent on the apex 3 but not exactly great
the audio thing
Plug it in, download SteelSeries GG to change RGB and actuation settings if you have the Omnipoint switches and add gifs and other stuff to your OLED screen
got it, thanks
not just that but it fits the album cover of the album im listening to
grey and red
stuff like rgb can be handled in prismsync, actuation for switchs and other settings are in the actual keyboard settings
I kinda wanna get the Apex 5
is it loud tho?
Yeah
how do i make gifs appear on my "apex 3 tkl" keyboard? i have the app to do it but all my keyboard does is flash for a quick second
ok
3 is good if you like membranes
okay thx
went into a game today, someone said my mic sounds like its from a dollar tree headset is the clearcast mic that bad?
on my apex 3 on F10 there is a M under it. anyone know what it means?
could be any number of things, bad connection, laggy server, the guy mighta been trollin you, who knows. The mics are generally good, you can test yours with a voice record app or something to see if maybe you have an issue on your particular one. compared to a streaming mic obviously there's no contest, but I've heard dollar store mics and honestly it's amazing they do anything, so a comparison to that might be an exaggeration.
it's for the macros
M = Macro
ok
Also some games just have really low quality voice chat in general so no matter what mic you have it wouldn't sound the best
true that
I use the Arctis 5 mic with my laptop when I'm playing games with friends while visiting my parents for a weekend or whatever and the general consensus is that it sounds fine for a headset mic
I use my Arctis Pros for all my online classes and work conferences, and so far nobody has had issue with it.
Same but for the Arctis 9 for me when I'm at my apartment and don't want to get out the thicc boy Blue Yeti I just use the headset mic haha
honestly I don't have any other mic than the built-in ones, been wanting a nicer one but just don't have a good reason to get one as of yet. maybe if I start streaming, but I need a better setup and faster internet before I can do that. So for now the one on my Pros is the nicest I have
I mean Koob uses the Pro Wireless mic on stream and it's decent enough for that and the regular Pro mic should be better since it's using a wire so in all honesty it's a decent quality mic compared to the other's in the Arctis line
probably true, yeah. my piddly 14Mb/s internet won't handle streaming tho so I couldn't try if I wanted to
Oh Dear™️
My upload speed recently got a bump from 6mbps to 12 so I've definitely been enjoying that. The difference between a 720p stream at 5500kbps vs 1080p at 9000kbps is night and day
lol. took me literally 3 hours to download the last update for the MCC on Steam, and that was only I think 1GB. Joys of living in the middle of nowhere with satellite internet®
F
ping is usually hovering around 1000, so no online multiplayer for me
oh and did you know satellite internet has data limits™️?
anyhoo, looking forward to my move back to Europe in January
I don’t miss using a metered connection.
My area is half rural farm land half super low income housing so we barely got fiber this last year
who would? I get 40 gigs a month and thats for me and the 4 other people sharing my wifi
and we still pay like $90 for it
I dread having to ever move. I'm getting like 500mbps recently and it's heavenly
I wish my city would hurry up and get Google Fiber. I've been getting emails from them for 2 years now just teasing me about it
Hello
How do I donate to steelseries? Like give them money without getting anything in return?
I'm pretty sure they don't accept donations except when they're running a special event for a charity
Hello how do u charge an artics 7 i plug in all usb that in came with and turned it on
My city was in line for Google fiber but ATT sued to block them. Wouldn’t let them use existing lines so they moved on 😭
Bruh
headset audio completely stopped working out of the blue, i plugged the headset onto different devices and there is still no audio. has anyone had this problem?
honestly AT&T is going the way of the dumpster fire... if your phone isn't on their whitelist it's just constant issues, I got a new phone from a niche brand this spring and over the summer they basically put in a new system (the "3G sunset" bull) and told me I couldn't use it anymore, even though it's got literally all the newest stuff a phone could possibly have in it.

it's bluetooth, yes
does it sound good?
yep
my old mic broke so I said screw it I'ma get a nice one
got a pair for my bro and he loves them
yeh
could u call me rq with them so I can see how good they sound?
Anyone know when the arctis 7x will restock?
My bro is using them atm, so unfortunately no
nope, nobody knows unfortunately.
sure thing
any specific channels where people post custom eq's with gamedac?
#gaming-world maybe, idk. don't really get many people doing that round here
...or you could recycle or sell on ebay for cash for more upgrades
its 600 dollars
the g pro is just as same as the starlight
but the starlight has lower weight 47 grams and has a good looking
and the g pro cant change because my g hub is glitch
in what currency, USD?
@agile dirge yes
i live in japan lol
there is amazon in japan
and im half american
i might go back to seattle
I used to live in Seattle actually
nice place
now where are u
very green
Currently, Albuquerque, New Mexico
I'm moving to Munich in January
nice
Military family?
no
my dad is a coke
he a dealear and manager for coke
most of our rides are free
but my country is philipines and us
ah, righto. my family is military so I move a lot too
my brother is in the navy
I have issues with my mic not picking up my voice, where would i find help diagnosing that?
Thanks
the issue what i hate so much with the headset of artics is the lack of battery
the g pro wireless has 3 days and its only 150 dollars
and the artic 7 is 200 dollas
yeh, SS is expensive
i have a question is the artics 7 a big difference from the artics pro wireless
The G Pro comes up as $150 ish for me, you can sell them used on eBay for around $40 ish depending on the quality
yes and no. A lot of the features are quite different
well I'd recommend trying to sell it instead of throwing it away
lol
i used to get 90 ping on philipines back then on fornite
and 20 50 with exitlag but does nto feel 20
in japan i get 0 25 ping
well mine is about 1000 (yes a thousand) rip
lol
how many mbps
i get around 400 500 but sometimes 600
in data i get 100 mbpsslol
40 max, but usually around 14. upload is 0.85
japan has fast internet
yeah, most cities do
lol when i was in the philipines i was gettign 200 300
u need to pay alot for faster internetand people say lag
lag bro just get an ethernet cable
ez
I had gigabit both ways while I was in Spain, could download 20GB in 5 minutes
the aveerage mbps in philipines is like 80 or 90 smh
but u can get 200 depending on the plan
now I have satellite so very slow
seems about right
japan has 91 mbps aberage but its fast
and u can get 1gmbps
singapore the fastest im sure
depends, it's always a mix
people with fiber always faster but some will still have DSL etc
'its japan
asia server are in japan always
soemtime singapore
u dont need fast wifi
wifi onlyg matters when downlaoding and
streaming
but it wont affect ur pign if u have like 20
WiFi is just the wireless coming out of your router. what matters is the speed of the internet that your router gets when you connect to the server
i used to get 0 to 20 ping in seattle
@agile dirge yes
if u have ethernet and u have 25 mbps and ur right next to the server
u shoudld get around 0 40 ping
even if u have like 25 mbps but the server is close to u u cna get 0 ping
the problem is tho ur download speed and u cant stream in ultra hd
pretty much all routers sold today support at least 300Mbps over WiFi, you get up to a gigabit over LAN with an ethernet cable tho.
ping is just how fast the server responds, doesn't have as much to do with bandwidth or download speed
with the server closer the signal doesn't have to go as far so a slower speed doesn't matter
speed realy dont matter if ur gaming its the location
us servers aree mostly located in the sides of united states
like claifornia oregon new york florida
bostom
@agile dirge people that get high ping is when they live in the middle of us
like new mexico colorado kansas
or that have slow internet
they get high ping
but in us internet should not be a problem they have fast wifi
why is ss so expensive
satellite will ping to central US server and then to wherever else. also each program/game will have servers in different places, sometimes it's in Europe so unless you live there no matter what your ping will be high
higher quality, lower volume of production, more features
ok
what do u think earn more logitech or ss
ss good keybaord headset
logitech more on mouse
logitech, they sell more products to a much wider audience
Personally I don't like logitech mice
their keebs are ok for work and stuff but not gaming
if you like ultralights
my all time favorite mouse is actually the Elecom Deft Pro Trackball, love the ergonomics, but not so good for gaming
For gaming I haven't found a favorite yet
1 question
lets day u have a popular clan like faze
and logitech razer finalmouse steelseries wanna sponsor u
what brand are u gonna pick
for me il pick steelseries
SteelSeries, they have the best quality over their entire product range
other brands are hit or miss on some products
its just its expensive for people
some are really good but others complete flops
SS seems more consistently good
you pay for the name and the quality
ok

Does anyone know of a good site to get custom sized mouse pads?
Heyyy Hello guys.. I bought Steel Series Arctis 1 4 days ago and my microphone is not working anymore does anyone know the solution or what I suppose to do?
Hi I bought arctis 7x just now.. can anyone pls help with the best EQ setting for xbox? Thx in adv
Have you tried the basilisk v3?
Heyyy Hello guys.. I bought Steel Series Arctis 1 1 days ago and my microphone is not working anymore does anyone know the solution or what I suppose to do? @stark rampart
Don't ping mods... It's in the rules
guys'
help me pls
when i click the clip buttom
i hear the sounds
but it doesnt clip
DUDE you sent the same message to 5 different channels
yeah
because i need help
LIKE
im spamming my clip button
and it does literally nothnig
nothing it doesnt save the clip it does nothing
I had non working LED's on my keyboard and my headphones arrived cracked and I have sent messages about that only in the right channel which is #archive-user-support
moments is like so dumb
do you spam it like you spam messages? bcs you might have broken it😐
I wonder
You know the arctis headphone plates right? I wonder how they would look like etched
Lazer etched?
If u have arctis pros, then u can do that urself if u know someone with a lazer engraver
It does seem like a cool thing to do tho
Is it just me or does the 3.5 mm headphone jack cable that came with the arctis 1 seem really low quality and it's hard to even put in
I don't feel like pushing it in all the way to see if it snaps and perfectly mainly because it just doesn't feel natural
It seemed fine to me
Interesting
I have the wireless version tho
give away? at this moment I am rather more interested in finding a way to get my new Arctis 7 headset working properly. Mic refuses to work and the app doesn't function properly either. Keeps telling me to reconnect the darned thing even if I did so several times over. Birthday messed up by a new headset that doesn't work! Not happy!
Do you have warranty?
steelseries better than razer 100%
most likely, I ordered it yesterday and received it only a hour or 2 ago
Can you buy the Neo noir mouse pad or nah?
Create a ticket for technical support. Then if it still doesn't work you can get a refund or replacement.
from etsy lmaoo
Everything other than mice yes.
nah razer keyboards are better
Yeah probably a good idea. I really am not into taking hours to get things working. Should be easy, not this difficult and still not working.

but razer headsets are shiz
Razer keyboards are trash
I agree.
nah huntsman mini is so good
Shits loud af
The feel of the switch is terrible
apex pro tkl seems really good tho
Omni point switches are the best switches I've used so far
Surprisingly smooth for being stock in a prebuilt
Arctis prime
The Arctis pro is the most expensive and had the most desirable features
Best in terms of value is debatable
I pre ordered myself a wooting 60HE
nice
That shit is way better than the apex pro
