Patriot Peripherals: A Suite of High-Performance Gaming Gear

As I walked through the aisles of CES 2017, I had the opportunity to check out some of the latest and greatest gaming peripherals from Patriot, a company that's been making waves in the industry with their high-performance gear. In this article, we'll take a closer look at some of the key products from their suite, including the V5 70 Gaming Headset, the v5 30 Gaming Mouse, and more.

First up is the V5 70 Gaming Headset. This headset is a beast, with aggressive design and features that are sure to appeal to gamers looking for an immersive experience. The ear cups feature braided stitching, which gives them a nice, textured look. I was also impressed by the quality of the metal band that holds everything together - it's clear that Patriot put a lot of thought into the build quality of this headset. One of the standout features is the ability to activate a drumming mode through a volume wheel on the side of the ear cup. This feature creates a vibration effect through sub-sub drivers, adding an extra layer of immersion to games.

Another notable feature of the V5 70 Gaming Headset is its microphone. I was blown away by its quality - it's clear and crisp, with no noticeable distortion or background noise. The headset also comes equipped with a braided cable, which is designed to reduce wear and tear on the cable. Overall, this headset looks like a solid choice for gamers looking for high-quality audio and comfort.

Next up is the v5 30 Gaming Mouse. This mouse has a unique, aggressive design that's sure to appeal to fans of high-performance gaming gear. The mouse features 13 programmable buttons, with a laser sensor on the bottom that provides accurate tracking. I was also impressed by the built-in weight system - Patriot includes four different weights, which can be easily swapped out using a magnetic panel. This feature allows gamers to customize their experience and fine-tune their performance.

One of the standout features of the v5 30 Gaming Mouse is its RGB lighting. The mouse has a range of customizable colors that can be adjusted through software, and the effects are impressive - I was able to create some truly stunning light shows using this mouse. The mouse also features a sniper button, which is perfect for first-person shooter fans.

In addition to the v5 30 Gaming Mouse, Patriot also offers a range of other products in their suite, including a keyboard called the V3 and a headset called the b3 61. The V3 keyboard is designed with a more subdued aesthetic, but still features the same high-quality build quality as some of the other products from Patriot. It's worth noting that this keyboard does not have RGB lighting, although it does come equipped with customizable keys.

Finally, there's the V5 330 headset, which is similar to the V5 70 but without the extra features like drumming mode and sub-sub drivers. This headset still offers high-quality audio and a comfortable fit, making it a solid choice for gamers on a budget.

Overall, Patriot's suite of gaming peripherals looks like an impressive collection of high-performance gear that's sure to appeal to fans of competitive gaming. Whether you're looking for a top-of-the-line headset or a high-quality mouse, there's something in this suite that's bound to meet your needs.

The v5 30 Gaming Mouse features 12,000 dpi and Kill Brown switches under the keys which is really cool. I can actually see why they would choose to do it like this. It's not always about getting the highest amount of information but sometimes it's better to have a little bit of tactile feedback to help with accuracy.

The V3 keyboard features Kill Red switches, which are designed for speed and precision. The switches themselves are built in such a way that they can be adjusted using software, allowing gamers to customize their experience and fine-tune their performance. This level of customization is impressive, and it's clear that Patriot put a lot of thought into the design of this keyboard.

I was also impressed by the build quality of the V3 keyboard, which features a solid construction that should withstand even the most intense gaming sessions. The keys are spaced nicely apart, making it easy to type out commands quickly and accurately. Overall, this keyboard looks like a solid choice for gamers looking for a high-quality, customizable experience.

Overall, Patriot's suite of gaming peripherals is an impressive collection of high-performance gear that's sure to appeal to fans of competitive gaming. Whether you're looking for a top-of-the-line headset or a high-quality mouse, there's something in this suite that's bound to meet your needs. With their focus on build quality and customization options, it's clear that Patriot is committed to creating products that will help gamers perform at their best.

your face alright guys we're kicking it here now at the patriot booth taking a look at a brand new keyboard from these guys this is the V 770 it's brand spankin new and it is of course as you can see RGB illuminated with perky illumination so you can actually go into the software and customize it just however you want it to each individual key is programmable you can actually see over here we've got some macro buttons it's not too many I'm glad that there's only a single row instead of 2 or 3 it kind of just keeps it a little bit slimmer plus a little bit more narrow on the desk over here we have a very nice wrist rest that's actually also RGB illuminated and unfortunately you can't configure that or change that it is gonna be stuck to this color cycling mode however some really cool feature here is that you can just remove it with a magnet and there's a little gold-plated connector right there to activate the LEDs over here moving on we've got a couple actual hardware buttons or keys I should say for your lighting effects so there's a number of lighting effects that if you didn't want to go into the software you just want to do something really quick on the fly if you tap any of those and switch it up to your liking we've also got some multimedia keys over here and it's actually kind of a nice little control solution that they have here feels really good very tactile volume we all got to love that USB braided cable very nice kind of a red and black design there there's also USB pass-through 2.0 of course and an audio jack as well right over here on the right side go ahead and focus that for you yeah yeah you don't see too many audio pastors on keyboards we've been cool to see a microphone too but maybe in a future revision let's go ahead and move over to the headset this is actually a pretty sweet looking headset they aren't Connor percent sure on the MSRP yet but it's looking pretty good so far this is the man the names are so confusing it's the V 370 yes that is correct the V 3 V 370 it actually has a really nice matte finish it almost looks like that kind of rubbery texture design which is really soft and smooth to the touch it's also extremely light and very comfortable I put it on it's got faux follow-up leather ear cups also comes with these replaceable fabric ones that you can swap out I I personally like the pleather they feel pretty good you've also got RGB lighting of course on the side there where you can see the little accent going around the Viper branding these are I believe semi-open I'm just from testing him out I'm additionally you've got a microphone this is a headset afterall it just swings down like that oops sorry for the focus it doesn't that flex really but I'm sure it'll pick up just fine it folds back up and that'll obviously mute it when you're not using it as a headset you should want to use as headphones non-detachable braided cable again it kind of matches with the the the keyboard with the red and black stitching it is braided looks very nice if you look over here I've actually got some more action on the ear cup itself volume wheel whoa let me go ahead and focus yeah well email wheel right here in this little thing will activate a drumming drumming marching band that's that's that's what this which does know it activates some sub sub drivers that are thirty millimeters that actually kind of creates a vibration effect when you're in games gives a bit more immersion to the experience of course you can always disable that if it's not your thing I think of it kind of like as a rumble effect like that a lot of a gaming controllers have but seems pretty cool and you've also got a really nice construction here metal look at that a metal band a metal band usually this is one of the biggest points of failure for a headset so I'm really glad that they've included some metal right there with of course number so you know that it's even on both sides and some padding on the headband as well that is faux leather I believe overall very nice little package here from Patriot alright so here we have the last piece of the puzzle in this peripheral game here in the seventy line this is the v5 70 Gaming Mouse you can see it's got the very aggressive design thank you very much Paul for hand modeling for us that's got some rubber grips on the side it's got 13 programmable buttons 12,000 dpi but like the rough even said who even needs that who knows it's also got a laser sensor on the bottom there with some interesting-looking feet it's definitely got a unique unique aesthetic let me know in the comments what you think of it that's also it also has a built in weight system which I think it's pretty cool if you want to pop off that panel it is magnetic so really easy to access swap out let's see two four six up to six different weights I forget how heavy they are but I'm sure you guys will be covered Arlis of what your preference is definitely a nice design if you look at the scroll wheel it has a bit of a rubber rubber texture on it too for a better grip it also has a really nice braided cable again going with the the red and black theme on the stitching and whatnot overall very nice Mouse here from from from good old Patriot did I mention there's RGB lighting on this Mouse I'm sure you couldn't tell and also a sniper button for all of you first person shooter gamers out there pretty sexy so if you guys are looking for something a little bit more economical I mean you don't want to go quite on the 70 series line they also have their 30 series in the Viper lineup so here we have the V 330 over headset and the b3 61 and basically you just get a little bit a few fewer features maybe terms of like the RGB functionality this is I think just a static red things like that but still same build quality still same awesome microphone and an braided cable and things like that here's the V 730 keyboard it does not have RGB functionality but it does have quite a few cool led effects of course you don't get an RGB whatchamacallit wrist rest either but some people actually prefer the more subdued aesthetic I actually personally like it a lot oh wait I totally forgot to check what switch this is oh these are these are kill Browns wait what's but the other keyboard hold on if you think Paul father was Oh drops these are kill Red's got it I can live in peace I will what what the hell are you doing nerd and finally we've got the v 3 the V 5 30 I should say it actually has a totally different look than the 570 I might actually like this a little bit better in terms of cosmetics I'm look at this though it's got a it's got a switch to just turn off all the LEDs on the mouse if you're just like screw lights I just want a simple mouse and I want it to be discreet actually you still get RGB functionality here just straight built into the hardware I thought this was dpi at first but it actually just changes the colors which is really cool on
