oh my God look it's so hot hey hey honey well at least this thing is silent get out introducing the node 202 from fractal design it's cool compact and quiet check the description below for more details woods of gas so if you recall nearly two months ago when I wall-mounted my console over killer I briefly mentioned that such an odd location for a PC could stand to benefit from some wireless peripherals so today I'll be taking a quick look at the g930 wireless headset from the folks over at Logitech now while this pair of cans has been on the market for quite some time now this is my first opportunity to really test them out so let's see if this wireless headset is the right candidate for reducing the console over killers' cable clutter dilemma for starters the g930 connects to your PC via a USB adapter over a 2.4 gigahertz wireless signal while the adapter can be plugged into your computer directly you also have the option of plugging it into the included charging dock for optimal placement on your desk for example the dock plugs into your computer with a 4-foot retractable USB cord and sports a slightly longer microUSB cable for charging the headset which can be done while the device is in use unfortunately you have to unwind and rewind the charging cable like a spool of yarn and I would have liked to see a retractable spring reel for easier accessibility each charge gets you about 10 hours of playtime so expect to juice up every other day unless you're some kind of filthy casual a combination of matte and glossy plastic construction make for an aesthetically pleasing headset for heads of all shapes and sizes thanks to the adjustable metallic headband spine and swiveling ear cups oddly enough this is also the feature I dislike the most about this headset as the ear cups swivel is the loosest I've seen making them swing around frantically like Gumby at a rock show or me in every video this not only makes the headset feel downright cheap but raises concern about its ability to endure such frequent jostling over time luckily for the g930 the foam padding in faux leather stitching on the headband and ear cups makes them comfortable enough to wear for long gaming sessions on the left ear cup you get a bendy noise cancelling boom mic that stays muted in the upright position and can be folded down when you're ready to have a social life again by the way in case you're wondering here's how it sounds this is an audio test using the built-in microphone on the logitech g930 gaming wireless headset how's it sound how do I sound do I sound sexy you yeah yeah I know I do hold on let me type something really quick get the keyboard out hello my name is Kyle and I feel really stupid right now because I'm talking on the sale it's definitely not the most crispy of headset mics and you can clearly hear the clicks and clacks of the Cherry MX brown switches on my mechanical keyboard so plan on adjusting the sensitivity settings in your voice chat application before use also on the left ear cup is your micro USB charging port volume mute button and scroll wheel and three programmable macro buttons that can be configured in the Logitech Gaming software the buttons are well spaced out for my taste and large enough to be easily located without accidentally hitting the wrong one but that's not all for the left ear cup as you also get a power switch with a wireless LED indicator and two switch for Dolby 7.1 virtual surround sound for more immersive gaming and movie watching finally moving on to the right ear cup you'll find nothing way to steal the show left ear cup the right of your cup works just as hard as you do switching gears from the hardware one of the biggest considerations of this headset is its Wireless miss what it's a word look it up well I'm happy to report that the device works without a hitch up to 40 feet away from its adapter even mucking about in the adjacent room with the door closed seem to be a walk in the park for our little headset demonstrating its uncompromised signal and range evety not a word sadly the 40 millimeter drivers on this puppy take a backseat when it comes to sound quality music sounds flat and uninspired and low-end bass is severely lacking unless you turn up the Dolby surround sound to 11 and while the stylish design and things like macro buttons make this headset appear like a premium gaining product strip away those somewhat gimicky features and you're left with an average headset pumping out the same crappy gaming audio that perpetuates the adverse stereotype it's for this reason and several others I mentioned that I personally can't give the g930 my full recommendation the gaming peripheral market is already saturated with enough flashy headsets that sound like hot garbage and with the huge leaps forward that PC gamers have been seeing in the visuals department lately there's still a significant dearth of headset options that bring home the sound experience to match fortunately I'll be taking a look at one such worthy headset in my upcoming wireless gaming peripherals roundup so be sure to stay tuned for that but let me know what you guys think of this headset in the comments below and don't forget to toss me a like on this video if you in enjoyed it before you go check the description where you can find shirts and also a
