Kingston HyperX Cloud Gaming Headset Review – A Ray of Sunshine

PC hardware vendors are constantly expanding into markets they traditionally have never had a presence in. Kingston, known for its memory and storage solutions, is the latest one; its HyperX Cloud gaming headset is its first venture into the world of gaming audio.
