Used on a CLX Gaming PC
Ever since I got my hands on a RTX 4090, I’ve been searching optimal peripherals to match the beast. Turtle Beach had just launched their latest Vulcan and Burst MnK and I had the pleasure of testing these out. Vulcan II TKL Pro and Burst II Air are key benefactors to high performance while maintaining real estate on your desk. Let’s dive into what makes these must haves for pro gamers.
Vulcan II TKL Pro
First impressions count, and the Vulcan II TKL Pro doesn’t disappoint in the looks department. Sporting a sleek and minimalist TKL form factor, this keyboard cuts down on unnecessary bulk without sacrificing functionality. The brushed aluminum top plate exudes a premium feel and ensures durability, while the detachable left-mounted USB-C cable adds convenience and tidiness to your setup. Underneath lies Hall-Effect Magnetic Switches and a 32-bit ARM Cortex M3 processor. These switches deliver lightning-fast response times and a lifespan of up to 150 million keystrokes, ensuring reliability and consistency. But what truly sets the Vulcan II TKL Pro apart is its customizable actuation points, allowing you to fine-tune key sensitivity from 0.1mm to 4mm to suit your playstyle. Turtle Beach’s AIMO™ Intelligent Lighting technology offers the usual RGB lighting set-up to your desire – with 5 onboard profiles and 8MB of on-board memory, your custom lighting setups and key mappings are always at your fingertips, even when you’re on the go.
Every millisecond counts, and the Vulcan II TKL Pro delivers with a 1000 Hz polling rate for minimal input lag and ultra-fast responsiveness. Combined with full key anti-ghosting and advanced customization options through the SWARM II software, you’ll have the edge over your opponents in every match; you can count on a stable and reliable connection, wherever you are.
Turtle Beach Vulcan II TKL Pro is a gaming keyboard that ticks all the right boxes. From its sleek and durable design to its lightning-fast performance and customizable features, it’s a must-have addition to any gamer’s arsenal. Whether you’re a competitive esports pro or a casual gamer looking to elevate your gaming experience, the Vulcan II TKL Pro has got you covered.
Burst II Air
Burst II Air sports an ultra-lightweight and ergonomic build, weighing just 47g, this mouse feels like an extension of your hand. For a while now, hand fatigue has been a thing of the past and it stays true during those marathon gaming sessions – the Burst II Air’s sleek and aerodynamic design ensures maximum comfort without sacrificing style. Precision and responsiveness are key, and with a mind-blowing 26k DPI/650 IPS optical sensor, the Burst II Air delivers unparalleled accuracy, ensuring every flick and swipe is registered with pinpoint precision. Whether you’re engaging in high-speed FPS battles or executing precise maneuvers in strategy games, this mouse has got your back. Plus, with NVIDIA Reflex compatibility, you can kiss input lag goodbye and gain that crucial competitive edge.
The Burst II Air isn’t just about tracking accuracy – it’s also about click performance. Featuring pre-tensioned buttons and TITAN Switch Optical technology, this mouse delivers a satisfying click experience that’s both tactile and lightning-fast. Every click feels crisp and responsive, thanks to the perfect balance between tactile feedback and optical speed. Plus, with a whopping 100M click lifecycle, durability is the name of the game. Burst II Air’s 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth® dual connectivity options are available. Whether you prefer the freedom of wireless or the stability of wired connections, this mouse has you covered. And with up to 120 hours of battery life on a single charge, you can game to your heart’s content without worrying about running out of juice.
Thanks to its hybrid skate design, this mouse glides effortlessly across any surface, giving you the edge you need to outmaneuver your opponents.
