    Hello ROG users,

    I just found this upcoming 5.1 headset for gaming and it's so cool and looks so good too.
    I am wondering if we can use this headset for our G73 because we don't have enough room for other jacks.
    The SRP is $130.00 it has a TRUE 5.1 surround sound.


    Here are the links and also reviews of CM Sirus 5.1 headset:

    Edit:
    There is an external sound card included in the mixer.
    Any comments or suggestion on this product?

    Thank you,

    Yupi

    Above we get a better look at the USB connector and the four 1/8" jacks so that if you choose to attach the headset to your existing sound card, you can. But why you would want to is beyond me as I found the sound card built into the mixing unit to sound just as good as or better than the onboard sound I usually use.

    reading that it looks like you can use the usb or the jacks, on g73 just use the usb connector :)

    Oh there's an on-board sound card from that mixer. Cool so to clear up things we can use this for our G73.
    I want to be sure on this product before getting hyped :D

    Thank you!
