A year later you've come in clutch, just got this headset for 50% off paid only $80 bucks and I thought it was broke or something because my other headset doesnt require software to connect. Thanks!👍
Thank you very much. I'm not a massive sound freak, but I love quality. The headset is immense on every level, I feel like Performance will do such a great Job for any purpose of media. Great video and the custom cups look 😍
YOOO you came in clutch! My headset un paired because I moved too far away from the dongle while it was on and was unable to get it to connect again. Thanks to your re-pairing method, Im back up and running! Thank you so much!
how do you manage to show the headset on the GG app? because i have the same problem but i try with everything and i dont see the headset show up on the app so i can reboot the wireless dongle :(
Thank you so much for this VERY helpful video. just bought them and i had no idea how to connect to my PC. (I bought them mainly for my PS5) have a good day.
I could not understand why the steelseries engine wouldn't find my headset when plugged in. Then I realized I had to switch the dongal to PC from xbox. You should of mentioned that but I figured it out. Great video 👍
That is what I’m searching for. The mic picks up everything. On the pc there’s a bunch of settings for the mic but I can’t find how to save it to my headset. The settings are on a different screen than the one he showed. I’ll probably put a microphone cover on it to muffle some of the background noise until I find how to adjust the settings permanently.
This video is a bit old, and a lot has changed since then. You might find some helpful tips in the comments from others who’ve figured it out-take a look and see if you can find anything useful.
Why aren't these headphones loud at all? I play bf2042 on ps5 and the volume is better on my cheaper JBL gaming headset. There isn't a way besides the one you showed us to turn the volume up?
Hi there! Jus got the arctic 7ps but am i supposed to leave the dongle on the ps5 cause i mainly use the usb c for charging my controller but the dongle is in the way so i constantly have to keep plugging it out anyway to fix that?

Thats arctis, they never been a loud headset, more of an overall balanced sound
I have the same issue. They are fine for youtube video but they are too low while playing games or watching a streaming service.
Great video I just got mine today.

Do you have to use the cable that it comes with cuz I lost mine
To update yes, but wirelessly you can play without the cable. And you don't have to update in order to play
Amazing! Thank you :D
Glad you like it!
Does this work on remote play?
not sure
is it normal for them to be not charged brand new? like i’m charging mine right now because it wouldn’t turn on until i plugged it into the charger
Yea, they could be on the shelf for who knows how long, batteries drain by themselves when not in use
Hi there! Jus got the arctic 7ps but am i supposed to leave the dongle on the ps5 cause i mainly use the usb c for charging my controller but the dongle is in the way so i constantly have to keep plugging it out anyway to fix that?
It is suppose to come with an adapter for usb c to regular usb, which then will let you use the dongle in the back of the ps5
Once you download the app you need to create an account to set up the headset?
Its now steelseries gg, you might, I do not recall needing an account but things have changed since
Will the steel series gamedac work on ps5 with this headset? And if it does, do you think its worth it?
I have not tried
I just ordered this model, but I noticed that the dongle blocks the usb port of the ps5, isn’t it?
You just plug it in the back, they give a USB to USB C adapter with it
