Introduction:
The world of gaming has shown exponential growth in recent years, and for many gamers, having an adequate setup is essential to enjoy an immersive and exciting experience. Although many focus on the choice of graphics card and processor, some overlook a key element: AUDIO. In this note, we will explore how to put together a gamer setup and why audio is essential to take the experience to the next level.
Consulting specialists, they tell us:
How do you plan the assembly of your set up?
To put together a good set up, I rely on audio, I consume a lot of music while talking to people or even to compete in Free Fire. I need to have very good sound quality while I play, that is very detailed since that gives me advantages to know where the opponent attacks. Many might not stop at that detail but I really consider it FUNDAMENTAL since it is a great advantage when competing.
Then clearly having a comfortable space with natural light in the stream, with good audio return from the participants.
Could you detail it in parts so that new gamers have a guide?
Sure, let's divide it by elements:
Headphones or headphones are the first element to take into account to improve the gamer's listening experience. It is important to look for models that offer high sound quality, especially in the low and high frequency ranges. Headphones with surround sound technology (such as 7.1) can provide a competitive advantage, allowing you to accurately identify the direction of sounds in games and fully immerse you in the virtual environment. I use the VX730 for the definition of the sound and the comfort of their pads. Besides the mic... but I'll tell you that later...
If you are one of those who prefer to enjoy the game without headphones or share the experience with friends, it is essential to choose good speakers or a quality soundbar. Having good bass response and clear sound from your speakers can enhance in-game special effects, music and voices, providing a more immersive and exciting experience. In this case I chose to add some KURBIS to my set up because in addition to being beautiful they sound amazing! They do make a difference!
In some cases, the sound card built into the motherboard may not be enough to provide the best audio quality. Consider investing in a high-quality external sound card for superior performance and to reduce electrical interference that can affect audio. Some games offer specific audio software that allows you to adjust the sound according to your preferences. Take advantage of these tools to adapt the audio to your needs and improve the gaming experience.
I advise you to talk to your trusted engineer before making changes to your equipment.
If you are a gamer and you also like streaming or participate in voice chats with friends, a good microphone is very important. Look for models that allow you to isolate the noise around you and good recording quality for clear communication without interference. Before I was talking about my VX730, they have 7.1 technology that creates a surround effect and its microphone, in addition to being flexible and removable, is CARDIOID, meaning it doesn't let any surrounding sound sneak in... I mean... it's TOP.
Ambient noise can ruin immersion in the game or your stream. Consider using insulating materials to reduce outside noise while ensuring you are in as quiet an environment as possible.
In conclusion, everyone agrees that if you are about to build your gamer setup, it is not only about graphical power, but also about an unmatched listening experience. The right headphones, speakers, sound cards, and microphones can completely transform the way you experience gaming. Do not underestimate the importance of audio in your gamer setup, as it is key to immersing yourself in virtual worlds and taking your gaming experience to the next level.
