ASUS ROG Pelta Core - the wired USB-C version of the ROG Pelta: 50mm ROG titanium-plated diaphragm drivers, a 10mm super-wideband detachable boom microphone and a 300-gram frame.
The ROG Pelta Core is the headset ASUS built for players who would rather stay wired. A single USB-C connection carries audio from a PC, a Mac, a PlayStation 4 or 5, a Nintendo Switch or a mobile device, so there is no battery to charge and no dongle to lose. The 50mm titanium-plated diaphragm drivers cover a 20Hz - 20KHz response, oval earcups with breathable mesh cushions help keep the weight at 300 grams, and the three-level elastic headband spreads pressure across the head instead of clamping it. The boom microphone detaches for solo sessions, and ASUS scores it at MOS-LQO 4.59 against the 3.9 average Teams result.
