this video is brought to you by our trusted graphics partner Nvidia this is gonna be a bit of a batch unboxing so we're gonna go as quickly as we can here we've got the Marauder keyboard the Banshee headset as well as the spectre mouse from Razer however these are the new part of the swarm Edition peripheral so let's start with the Marauder which has according to Razer elevated keys with optimized travel distance okay so this is they're going for RTS optimization here it also has on-the-fly macro recording which I personally think is great not having to open up the utility in order to set up any macros that I want to use as well as last but not least there a PM lighting system all three of these peripherals have the APM lighting system which changes the changes the lighting scheme depending on what kind of actions per minute you're actually putting through it now the only things razors really change with these peripherals is the box art so you can see the box art is purple but our keyboard actually shipped by default with a blue color scheme just like the original wings of Liberty Marauders so not much has changed there the good news Starcraft players is that you can change the color scheme to whatever you want without any difficulty so let's move on to the Spector Mouse I'm just gonna prop this up on the keyboard here so my so my close-up camera can check it out if they want so the Spector Mouse has broad buttons it's pretty much impossible to miss them it's got the same APM optimized lighting scheme that can change things around depending on your actions per minute which i think is cool lighting is down the side of the mouse as well as the starcraft2 logo on the top the scroll wheel has 24 individual clicks which is something razors started calling out on their mice recently apparently more clicks is is a good thing although I can think I mean if you bound it to something you wanted to execute actions quickly that would be a good thing to use it for and you've got your left and your left buttons that are your back and forward it's an ambidextrous design but there are only buttons on the one side so as a lefty you're not going to be able to bind back and forward to your thumb you'd have to try to use the buttons with your pinky which is not really that optimal so it's ambidextrous shape with more of a right-handed design now the bottom of the mouse is where you find one of the coolest things so this thousand Hertz ultra pulling Mouse 5600 DPI sensor etc etc but check this out you can actually adjust the click force required for the top two buttons here the left and the right click so there's three settings low medium and high and I think all three of us in the room found the high setting to be a little bit on the high side but oh okay slick is saying no he did not so it was just me and diesel who found the high setting a little bit high but this goes to show you how it might be useful to be able to adjust how much force is required for your clicks cuz I found mice that I like except that I'm like oh this one's basically got a hair trigger on it and I am NOT able to use it versus ones that I'm like oh this is like way too heavy and I can't really use it so there you have it moving on to the Banshee headset this is a USB headset so it does not have an analogue option part of the reason for that is because it has the lighting scheme built on to it it needs to be powered in order to function correctly so there we go I'm gonna go ahead and plug this in and hope that it's gone and lit it so ah yes there we go that looks nice Starcraft 2 logos on both sides as well as lighting on the bottom of the unit and on the sides and so front and back bottom and sides looks very good it's a circumaural fairly open design so I can hear quite clearly even once I have them on and it sits over top of my ear so I'm gonna try and give our close-up camera a good look at how large those pads are fairly soft fairly plush but they do rebound quite quickly so I'd expect them to need a bit of a break-in period before they start to get really comfortable however this is good news for comfort the headband is extremely wide so I'll pull out my trademark iPhone comparison it's almost the width of an iPhone and sits on your head with that entire surface down there with a nice plush pad on it so that's gonna make this very comfortable the weight I'd say is sort of average it's not super lightweight but the fact that it's really well supported like that means it shouldn't fatigue you too much over time the buttons available on the back are for your microphone which is detachable by the way yeah there you go you can take the microphone off put it back on if you want especially if you're not looking at it this will be okay you know what it's off for now okay so you can adjust the volume and mute on your microphone as well as the volume and mute on the headset itself which is just kind of nice to have back there and you can easily touch them and feel what you're trying to do so thank you for checking out there's mass unboxing here I'll just put this down next to the other one so you can get a nice little shot of what they all look like in the dark remember guys you can change the color scheme to whatever you want and I'm just gonna cut across that camera so hopefully whoever's editing this it's gonna see that there we go so that is what they look like all together and you can make them all the same color within Razer synapse 2.0 which is their software that allows you to set up profiles for your devices and then as long as you log into synapse 2.0 it can take all your profiles with you wherever you happen to be thank you for checking out this unboxing and first look don't forget to
