Due to the prevailing opinion that so-called gaming headsets overpriced cheap stuff are that can not nearly compete with the above-mentioned components I decided to replace me against a G35 gaming headset to my Creative Fatal1ty Gamer Headset.
What can I say. The absolute madness. A difference to my Creative Fatal1ty like night and day. The sound hit me almost from the socks. The only downside is that a few more settings to be made at the beginning. The software of the sound card (also surround) must be adapted. As well as the sensitivity of the microphone.
If this is set to the satisfaction adapted to the games / movies / music enjoyment is no more obstacles.
The installation of the sound card is easy. Plug housing, sound card in the PCIe slot plugging, housing, headset and Micro and ready.
In the software you should download the latest version of the sound card on the manufacturing side. This installs quickly and it can be made the settings.
Software: Many options, are needed, in my opinion, only the surround settings for games and movies.
I could not get up and running the microphone. A brief search on the Internet revealed that the activation setting of the microphone is very hidden.
Xonor Software - Mixer - in the window on the red "Record" in addition to "Playback", then in addition to "Mic" is a wrench, turn da da click through on it.
The sound and the bass is absolutely clear. Since I have not heard nothing like it, I would recommend this option for 28 euros for the time being cost each Headphones of +/- 200 euros, prefer.
Processing and optics for my purpose also absolutely sufficient and very well mM.
Prices of the combination:
- Superlux HD681 - 28 Euro - Amazon
- Zalman ZM-MIC 1 to 6.76 euros - Amazon
- Asus Xonar DGX - 33.49 euros - Amazon
Thus, you get a headset that every purebred "Gaming Headset" may (also the G35 for more than 100 euros) cut out for just under 70 euros.
As it stands at a G35, which is operated with a sound card, I can not say. The Preview of the G35, which I was compared with the sound of the above combined with onboard sound!
This I encourage every buyer and the Superlux HD681. Only through the headphones you get no comparable sound. The sound card is an absolute must!
