HyperX is a division of Kingston (highly known for their memory products) and develop RAM, SSDs, USB drives, headsets, and other peripherals. At CES 2017 HyperX has introduced a new headset that is described as their “most advanced gaming headset to date” in a press release: The HyperX Cloud Revolver S.

This is done by combining Dolby’s headset technology into the new HyperX Cloud Revolver S headset’s USB dongle that will bring out the high quality sound with a simple push of a button.
