Yeah had that both on and off. I guess it would be quite different as there'd have to be inbuilt drivers etc for playing the sound instead of just straight in via cable. Ah well, it's back in the returns box now!

5 is USB so they should have the same sound, just wired not wireless.
Shame you didn't get on with them though!
I've had mine a couple of months and find they are as good as my old stereo headphones, just wireless
I know I was quite gutted as they are very nice and comfy to wear. I just couldn't play pubg though, in duos I kept having to get my mate to tell me what direction the shots I'd just heard were coming from so I knew where to look5 is USB so they should have the same sound, just wired not wireless.

. Popped old wired headset in and all was well again.

For my sound I needed to use windows drivers after fully uninstalling the official drivers. Then I have to use a sound booster to get past the EU law maximum sound loudness.
Also, I can't remember what I did and I'm not at home right the now so can't check but I used to have some annoying dips in frame rates but solved them by following a guide on what to update and what to delete from my system... If you search Google you might find some stuff about it.
That sorted things out for me very much so about 6 months ago and not looked back.
It sounds odd to say because it seems obvious to me but... You just have to sit down and take the time to try everything you can find to help set your game and sound up.
I'm only on a 2500k with an R290 but the game runs great for me, 80 to 120 fps pretty solid.

What are your graphical settings in game? I'm running a 980 on a x34 and considering getting another GPU to get better FPS.

Well 3 games night e had a cheater in everyone, havent seen a blatant one for ages but saw a guy running round so fast like the flash, then a I got headshot by a guy about 2 miles away and he didnt have a scope and the last one seemed to have ping / lag thing going on as everytime we shot at him he did a mini teleport almost like he was lagging.
Seems the anti cheat needs an update.
Seems the anti cheat needs an update.
cpu and clock is very important in pubg.so make sure before you change that card you have a fast intel cpu.the game prefers intel cpu high clock and a nvidia gpu who work with bluehole.
Played afew hours today thought the game had got a little better until someone shot me that wasn't there on my screen, on his it clearly shows me stood there and him just blasting me away, I'm going to try scum tonight see what that's like.

Tried the game after a 2 month break and it’s still absolutely terrible 
Desync issues make hotdrops such a lottery. Skill isn’t even a factor when desync is as bad as it is.

- If there are less than 5 players in the matchmaking queue, matchmaking will continue for 5 minutes
- If there are still less than 5 players after 5 minutes, the session will start with the original number of players present and other players cannot join the session.

Views: 190,006
A new 7.62mm Assault Rifle, the Mutant may be just what you've been looking for in a dependable mid-range weapon. Try out the new Mk47 Mutant, available on Test Servers with PC Patch #21.
New Sanhok Exclusive Vehicle: Tukshai
- Added a new AR weapon: the MK47 Mutant
- MK47 Mutant can be acquired on all maps (Erangel, Miramar, Sanhok) through world spawn
- MK47 Mutant is an AR weapon using 7.62mm bullets and has a 20 round capacity, which can be upgraded to 30 rounds with an extended magazine.
- The Mutant has 2 firing modes: single shot and 2-round burst
- Almost all types of attachments can be used with the MK47, but it has no stock slot
Supply System
- Added a new vehicle that will be exclusive to the Sanhok map
- The Tukshai is a 3 person vehicle that substitutes the UAZ, Dacia and Minibus

- You can level up and get rewards when you fill the Survival gauge with survival XP
- Missions will be refreshed daily and weekly.
- You earn a reward every time you gain a survival level
Known Issue
- Previously, we offered BP rewards based only on your ranking. Now, we’ve restructured the system to take into account both play time and ranking.
- Rewards have been restructured to equalize the differences in BP efficiency based on playing time for each Map and Mode.
- We’ve changed team rewards to be shared
- You will no longer receive 4 times the BP because you were playing alone in a squad game
Gameplay
- When the language is set to Thai or Arabic, occasional frame drops can occur in certain situations. Our engineers are working to resolve this as soon as possible.

- Added a new attachment: the Laser Sight
- Bullet spread is reduced when hip firing and soft-aiming
- The Laser Sight fits on weapons with a lower rail slot available, taking up the grip slot.
- Currently, there is a known issue that the laser effect is not displayed in the death cam or replay. This issue will be resolved soon.
- Added the improved Marker/Ping System first introduced for testing on the 8/1 test server update
- Using ALT + Mouse wheel click, you can create a marker where you are aiming on the compass at the top of the screen (not visible in the world)
- You may change the key bindings freely in options
- All team members can see this marker on the compass
- After setting the marker, there is a 2 second cooldown before you can mark again
- The marker on the compass will automatically disappear after 5 seconds
- When the ping markers overlap, the closest located marker will be shown on top.
- Improved the visuals for blue zone effects
- Bluezone effects are now shown more clearly.
While the Bluezone is closing in, it will be easier to see from a longer distance than before

It's not that awful for me, but I never go to the hottest areas, usually one 1-2 squads around.Tried the game after a 2 month break and it’s still absolutely terrible

No worries
