![]() ![]() Offered in both white and carbon, the Void RGB Elite Wireless is fairly well constructed, and the aluminium yokes are a particular highlight. Put some walls between you and the dongle and the signal will degrade or cut off, but that’s nothing new and fully expected. In my testing, the headset has no obvious range issues if you’re in the same room. Similarly, the wireless range is a claimed 40 feet (around 12 metres), which will cover any realistic usage. This wireless headset has a claimed battery life of up to 16 hours, but that figure will come from optimal test settings, and if you leave the LEDs on, especially at full brightness, the battery depletes much faster. The setup is as simple as plugging in the dongle, waiting for the driver to quickly install, and switching on the headset – the two will then pair immediately, and I never perceived any latency. ![]() The headset is supplied with a 1.5m rubber charging cable (micro-USB to normal USB Type-A), the USB dongle that enables 2.4GHz wireless connectivity, and a basic pop filter for the non-detachable microphone. ![]() With wireless connectivity, virtual surround sound, and RGB lighting, the headset has many feature boxes ticked from the get-go, so hopefully it also holds up to a closer inspection. The Void RGB Elite Wireless remains an important part of Corsair’s headset offerings. VAT (on sale for £69.99 at the time of writing) That's why i got these issues and you are getting them right now.UK price: £99.99 inc. My best guess is that the latest versions of iCUE have compatibility issues of the obsolete W7 OS. She hasn't reported any issues with her headset. Oh, my missus has the same headset as you do (Void RGB Elite USB), connected to ST100, and i have W10 on her PC as well. Somehow W10 is able to recover from the hanging of built-in audio drivers and restart it when iCUE throws it's tantrum. It was less frequent but still, not fixed completely.Īfter i upgraded my OS to W10, the issue went away. Sadly, some days later, the issue re-appeared and plugging headset directly to the PC only lessened the times when iCUE hanged and froze W7 built-in audio drivers as well. Since i had my headset connected to Corsair ST100 and when i connected my headset directly to my PC, the interval of these issues plummeted. For what i gathered, at some random point, iCUE hangs and it also hangs the W7 built-in audio drivers, where only fix is PC reboot.Ĭontacted Corsair support as well. For the love of me, i couldn't figure out why iCUE is messing up mu usage of my headset. When i was using W7, out of the blue, the exact same issue started to happen with my Corsair Void Pro RGB USB headset as well (predecessor of Void RGB Elite USB). Again these problems happen everyday, sometimes more than once. I just don't understand why iCUE seems to mess with my system in such a drastic way. Without iCUE the headset works flawlessly, but I don't have access to the virtual surround sound, EQ presets, and RGB lighting. I've done multiple clean installs of iCUE and the headset drivers themselves. I've tried the headset on my brothers PC (which has a different mobo, gpu, and RAM) and he has the exact same issues. It is only when the USB headset is plugged in do these problems arise. I thought the problem was just iCUE, but when I'm only using my K55 corsair keyboard with iCUE I have zero issues. My PC refuses to go to sleep when the headset is plugged in, and through a 'powercfg requests' command I found out the headset was keeping it from sleeping (and audio stream is in use). Windows Audio Service will also sometimes stop responding. The only way to fix it is to restart my PC. I'm not sure what triggers it, but every day something happens where YouTube videos (and all other forms of video media) will not play, and games will hang on launch. I have a Corsair Void RGB Elite USB gaming headset and I'm having nothing but problems with it. ![]()
