The new lineup will be featured at PAX Aus 2022 from Friday October 7 to Sunday October 9, where attendees can try and buy the products at the HyperX booth.

HyperX Armada 25 and HyperX Armada 27 Gaming Monitors

The new HyperX Armada gaming monitors offer higher resolution for more immersive gaming and are compatible with NVIDIA® G-SYNC.® The monitors provide an all-in-one package that includes the HyperX Armada Single Gaming Mount with an ergonomic Armada arm that is compatible with all HyperX monitors and most displays with VESA 75mm and 100mm patterns along with an Armada desk mount. The Armada Single Gaming Mount is built to last with durable metal and supports monitors up to 32 inches in size and 20 pounds (approx. 9kgs) in weight.

The HyperX Armada 25 Gaming Monitor offers a 240Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time for smoother and faster competitive gameplay. The Armada 25 provides Full HD resolution for impressive visuals with vibrant colors and impressive detail with its 24.5-inch FHD (1920×1080) IPS panels built to deliver a competitive edge.

The HyperX Armada 27 Gaming Monitor offers an even sharper image and higher resolution with its 27-inch QHD (2560×1440) IPS widescreen and VESA Display HDRTM 400, delivering clear detail in various lighting environments and a more immersive gaming experience. The Armada 27 also offers a 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time for crisp and smooth visuals.

“This is an exciting time for HyperX as we enter the gaming monitor market with the new HyperX Armada gaming monitor line,” said HyperX. “Offering high refresh rates and low response times for enhanced gaming experiences along with an ergonomic arm and desk mount for long hours of comfort, the Armada gaming monitor family provides convenience and functional design in all-in-one packages.”

HyperX ProCast Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The HyperX ProCast is a professional-grade condenser microphone featuring an XLR connection, a cardioid polar pattern input and a gold-sputtered large diaphragm condenser capsule, delivering high-quality audio performance. Designed for streamers, influencers and content creators looking for professional quality in a microphone with XLR connectivity, the HyperX ProCast offers high-quality audio recordings with vibrant sound.

The ProCast microphone captures detailed recordings with the gold-sputtered large diaphragm condenser capsule and utilises the popular cardioid polar pattern to focus on the sound source. A switchable -10dB PAD allows the microphone to handle loud audio sources and a 80Hz high-pass filter switch helps to reduce unwanted low-end frequencies.

“HyperX continues to elevate its range of high-quality and high-performing peripherals to meet the needs of today’s gamers, influencers, content creators, and more,” said Ana Hidalgo, streaming business manager, HyperX. “As our first XLR microphone, the HyperX ProCast microphone is perfect for recording professionals, content creators and streamers. With an XLR connection and a high quality gold-sputtered large condenser, HyperX engineers focused on delivering excellent audio performance and versatility for use in home or professional studios.”

HyperX Cloud StingerTM 2 Gaming Headset

Offering signature HyperX comfort and durability with soft memory foam and premium leatherette, the new Cloud Stinger 2 includes DTS® Headphone:X® Spatial Audio for improved 3D audio spatialisation and localisation accuracy. Minimising weight without compromising overall performance, the Cloud Stinger 2 offers lightweight comfort with impressive audio, ideal for long gaming sessions and chatting with friends.

“Bringing a new and improved addition to our popular selection of Stinger headsets, we are excited to expand the lineup with the Cloud Stinger 2,” said HyperX. “Offering another top-quality headset option packed with impressive features for both function and comfort, Cloud Stinger 2 stays true to its lightweight predecessors’ quality and comfort at a low price point – now with DTS Headphone:X audio for more enhanced in-game immersion.”

Cloud Stinger 2 maintains the fundamentals of the original HyperX Cloud Stinger, while refining them to meet an even wider range of gamers needs. Weighing in at under 300g, the headset is designed for a quality user experience with great sound and lightweight comfort. Cloud Stinger 2 utilises large 50mm drivers to provide clearer audio, with earcups that rotate 90 degrees for adaptive fit and comfort around the neck during breaks. The headset also features easy-access audio controls on the earcup and a swivel-to-mute, noise-canceling flexible microphone for added convenience, reduced background noise and clear voice quality.
