Roccat gaming unboxing and first impressions with pros and cons

i don't hear anything you say i can't hear you right now there is one there's one there we go there's one wasn't the best shooting ever [Music] that's two [Music] through the wall okay you



 got me [Music] so it's all about gaming right now this holiday season man my goodness all the gaming products they're selling out people are excited people are looking to upgrade some of the stuff that they're using for their



 gaming including their peripherals not just the graphics cards today we have a series of upgrades in all those various gaming departments they say that these switches last for a hundred million clicks vulcan pro titan switch optical linear best speed and durability as we said but just a little quick one on optical versus mechanical yes there's still


 mechanical components in an optical key switch the difference is the last end of it that's the part where you would normally have some sort of contact being made a mechanical contact in the switch which could wear down over time or lead to corrosion this on the other hand uses optical technology at that point and that's how they 

can make these extended durability claims reinforced aluminum top plate for added durability onboard macro of course advanced anti-ghosting and fingertip shaped keycaps oh yeah and don't forget we got the mr savage endorsement as well now i have been playing a little bit on some gaming laptops and i have to say the one drawback for 

me is the keyboard there's something so satisfying about a real key switch a real uh travel when you hit the key and me you know i need all the help i can get like i said i dip into the gaming here and there and i need to i need any advantage i can get oh this is like i like this you see the glossy clear plastic it's very it's like a piece of candy in fact you can see you have these fairly robust little legs on there with rubber so that it sits in place actually big rubber pads on both the front and back this is a really interesting design the switch at least a large portion of it 

 is extending above the keyboard itself instead of dipping into it so it kind of lets you appreciate the key switches as you play it's a little bit of this seeing the inside aesthetic this kind of the mechanical the inner working type of thing for a gadget head that's kind of a nice little touch you see there's no substitute for the key travel and very different type of design here you see the spacing of the keys and the curvature where your finger fits in some extra stuff


 we should notice at this point up here the media controls a nice tactile knob for controlling your volume just your multimedia keys up along top those are going to be useful otherwise i kind of like the minimal nature of it just this aluminum top deck and your keys staring back at you now you also have this piece which apparently connects magnetically and this is your wrist rest and it does connect magnetic let's look at the mouse this is the burst pro once again tighten switch optical with the most flexible cable in the world's first heat

-treated ptfe mouse feet pre-trained for instantly smooth gameplay interest pre-trained wow it's like you don't have to work it in like it's going to be slippery out the gate optical speed the only switch that combines the speed of light optical response with a snappy controlled mechanical click feeling lightweight as well yes 68 grams and 100 million click as mentioned previously 100 million 


 clicks [Music] oh my god that is crazy lightweight holy moly that's probably the lightest mouse i've ever held of course is the benefit there is speed but also a lack of fatigue you're just moving around less weight and for an extended session that can i can make a difference those pads do feel slick we have this very flexible cable with some cable management built in there of course we have back forward over here dpi settings up top and the scroll wheel over there as

 well and of course it's got the rgb built in and you're gonna have those switches in there also look i'm wearing down the hundred million you don't have any left man the elo 7.1 air air implying it's a wireless surround sound headset 2.4 gigahertz receiver apparently these have 24 hours worth of battery for the average gamer that's about a week's worth of gaming although i know i mean i've met people they can run that out in a couple of days it just depends how serious you are but still 24 


hours of battery life is significant big ear cup big sound memory foam on the ear cups self adjusting metal headband i like this no clickety clack no wondering if you have the balance correct on each ear cup it's just you drop it on and it auto adjusts a detachable mic which is also a bonus when you want to use them just as regular headphones and then you slap the mic on for your


 gaming sessions pro specs glasses friendly ear cushions i don't have my glasses with me but it's cool that they're paying attention to that because sometimes it's tough to find headphones that fit well when you have that glass piece you know the arm heading this way so there is your tiny little receiver and it has what looks like an led light on the top there is the headset the cups rotate very smoothly here is a look at that spring loaded headband which auto adjusts and then we've got a tremendous number of controls on the side here of course volume microphone with its own separate volume wheel a 

large mute switch a power button and then of course type c for charging which is a must so here is that microphone that i mentioned as well as a fairly long usb type c cable so you could use them while charging i suppose if uh if you wanted to now the nice thing about having a removable microphone is that when you're using them as a regular set of headphones or even if you want to go about the house listening to something from your computer then you're not going to have to have this thing attached that's kind of nice when you do go to attach it there's only one way that it goes in 

 it clicks and then it's bendable as well so you can set up the best mic placement i mean look at the scale of this thing 900 by 400 by 3.5 millimeters it has the illumination around the outside this whole amo setup make sure that all of your peripherals are in sync with your illumination and your rgb this is likely the most elaborate mouse pad i've ever featured on the channel i don't think there's i don't think there's a close second this one is rgb and enormous a braided usb cable to plug it in what a beast check that out now i also noticed there's a button for brightness control so

 if you don't want to use the software you want to reach up quickly and adjust it looks like you can click just right there boom that gets placed right there and your mouse and this is kind of this is really cool actually everything is synced up currently including the mat check this out so you can see the gradient moves across all the various devices and you have a dedicated switch over here which controls the brightness on all of them so as i move down here you'll see it getting more and more dim and then all the way to off if you want it off and then hit the button again and you're back on as you can see in the app here we have all our various devices here's the pad so you don't have to have them synced if for example you wanted the mouse pad to be one color keyboard to be something else so you can see along top on the app here we have the sense

 amo wide the vulcan pro keyboard and it's not just lighting that's controlled in the app it's also various characteristics of the operation including repeat delay repeat rate cursor blink rate typing sound click sounds i mean lots of stuff to choose from various profiles that you can switch between of course pointer speed and dpi settings for the mouse which is so stupid lightweight 

it's unreal and same goes for the headset as far as this lighting on the outside so the whole thing works together as you can see there you get a sense for that auto adjusting headband you see how it's kind of like spring loaded

 so you never need to configure the correct size you just pop it on and that's that these are super isolated by the way unless

 you're whispering these are super isolated [Music] so ah too aggressive relax oh my god a turret stop it turret first of all like i don't normally just get into it with the headset and everything there's so many people at

 my house i'm talking to and people you know but i throw that on i mean i feel like the headset is the biggest i mean the keyboard

 is very nice as well but heads i'm engaged sheesh the gunfire that was a fun experience i'll tell you what you you'll see the clip there was like a triple i got a triple kill at one point which was pretty nice i enjoyed that moment especially i'm telling you man a little bit a little bit more time i'm saying it's only a matter of time a little bit more times a matter of time i want you to follow along 

here on the channel progression and the peripherals yeah i mean the keyboard super comfy place to be even for somebody like me who dabbles i immediately sense a difference uh when once i've got a keyboard like this with the key travel mostly like to just and the mouse is stupid smooth and lightweight so everything is nice maybe 

uh yeah maybe i'll just jump in for one more real [Music] quick
