So there is a smaller sale on these 2 in Sweden right now (About 60 usd for Arctis 3 and 80 for 5).

 

 

Ive been trying to google the differences, but I cant really f ind anything? It seems that the 5 has RBG and USB connector, and thats it?

 

 

Is the USB connector worth paying an extra 20 USD for?

 

 

Anyone that has any decent info?

It's marketing for the 5's they have RGB so all the more power but I would go for the 3's just because of the marketing or which one would look decent with your setup?

Not at all. Just get the arctis 3. You can also use the surround sound software with the ss engine if you fancy that kind of stuff.
