That's a great solution

That is a very old and outdated headset. It's good, but old. If you want audiophile grade performance and an attached mic. the ATH - G1 from Audio Technica is a solid option. The MMX300 from Beyerdynamic is also a good option, alonside the PC37X. The best would be to get something like the Fidelio X2HR or the DT770 and an external mic like the ModMic or the VModa BoomPro

Amen to that.

Believe what you want to man, but I have owned computers before this, and in my experience, it doesn’t get worse than this. I’m not saying that that the product is bad, I’m just saying that the company should have a better contingency for such a situation.

Dude, first of all, a $1000 Laptop shouldn’t give a problem within the first year of purchase. Secondly, if my previous device, which I used for 4 years, never gave me such bullshit, why the heck do you think I would be willing to go through the trouble of filing a complaint, and all such stuff? Lastly, even if my device was an unlucky unit from the batch, at least I should have a good response from the company. They don’t even have parts here in India, and let me tell you, India is a huge market for ASUS products. Companies like Dell never gave me such issues bro.

1) Check if you accidentally pressed the mic mute button. 2) You might have to go to your Computer’s audio settings and enable your HS50’s (if they aren’t enabled)

I NEVER experienced such issues when I used a Dell Inspiron 15. I see no reason why I should be concerned with stuff such as “RMA”

Their fancy ROG name is attracting people to buy stuff that doesn’t even work properly, for a giant price tag.

The initial problems were insignificant, and were solved by a simple antivirus scan, and a disk cleanup. The motherboard issue was what confirmed my decision.

Hi, I recently had a very bad experience, which justifies the title of this topic. I bought an ASUS ROG GL503GS Gaming laptop, about a year ago. In that time period, I did experience quite a few shortcomings of the device. The fans would automatically ramp up their RPM, when it wasn’t even needed. I did initially put them on the overboost mode, but the fan themselves stay quiet during overboost, when the system isn’t being exerted. I later found out this was a bug in the system, but my machine had a full fledged, activated Anti-Virus system. It still surprises me how this issue could’ve happened while the activated NPAV was protecting the machine. I have used NPAV on all my previous machines, and no such thing has ever happened to those laptops. My GL503 also costed $1000 for a basic i5-8300H and a measly GTX 1050 4GB. Adding to that, it is virtually impossible to get access to the internals of the machine. I decided, one day, to clean the fan and heat sinks and give it a proper dusting, but I spent about 45 minutes trying to get to the motherboard on the damn machine. At the end of those 45 minutes, I still couldn’t get access. The keyboard, too, began malfunctioning after short time of the purchase. The Aura Core RGB software controlling my keyboard’s RGB became unresponsive, and later crashed. I am now restricted to only the Rainbow effect, which is fine, but I would’ve liked some customisation. The biggest problem, though happened around 3 weeks back. I sat down for a quick CS:GO session, and suddenly, my laptop shut itself down automatically. This happened a couple of times. I then called the retailer from whom I had purchased the laptop. He asked me to take it to a service center. So I did that. The next day, I get a call saying that the motherboard and the fan motor on my laptop experienced a shot-circuit, causing the capacitors and motherboard to fail. Luckily, my warranty was yet to expire, so I quickly asked the center to order new parts for the machine. 12 days later, I called the center again for a status update. They said that due to heavy rains ( I live in India, and it’s raining heavily here), the parts have been delayed. When I asked where were they coming from, I was told they were coming from Taiwan! It is disappointing to see a brand like ASUS, have such flaws in their working, and their products. Throughout this experience, I have been enraged and disturbed. A $1000 machine shouldn’t experience such an issue so early. I am most certain that I will not purchase another ASUS product henceforth. I owned an HP and a Dell prior to making this purchase, and never have I experienced such a flaw. Please feel free to share your thoughts.

Ok, thanks for your reply ??

The KZ ZSN’s are shit expensive here in India, around $100 My current decision is still a bit ambiguous tho. - Should I buy the 1MORE Single Drivers for $20, or save up a little and buy the 1MORE Dual Drivers( with Hi-Res Audio certification) for $50?(Indian Prices)

1) HD569 from Sennheiser 2) Cloud II from HyperX 3) Arctis 5 from SteelSeries 4) MH752 from Cooler Master 5) DT770 from Beyerdynamic
