HyperX Cloud III
Score: 80/100Rankings

The HyperX Cloud III is a wired over-ear headset featuring angled 53 mm drivers, DTS spatial audio support and a sturdy metal frame. Its drawbacks include short cable lengths and the absence of wireless or active ANC. Best for gamers who want premium build quality and versatile wired connections without paying for wireless features.

The Logitech G432 gaming headset offers 50 mm drivers with DTS Headphone:X 2.0 virtual 7.1 surround and a flip-to-mute boom mic. Its relatively heavy build and Windows-only software limit portability and feature access. Targeted at gamers looking for immersive surround sound on a budget.
