With Black Friday and Cyber Monday behind us like a fond childhood memory, you're probably thinking that the best gaming deals are done for the year, or that you're better off waiting until the Christmas and winter sales kick off.

Well, if you're in the market for a new headset, you're in luck, as Corsair's HS70 Pro wireless gaming headset is on sale over at Amazon for a new low price of just £74.99 - a saving of £25. And if you're in the US, you don't miss out on this deal either as Amazon US have it down to just $79.99 - saving you $20.

Its 7.1 surround sound is capable of delivering fantastic range and depth, while 50mm drivers power the headphones. The mic is detachable and unidirectional, meaning the noise-cancelling is exceptional and don't have to worry too much about background noise bleeding into your gaming party. And it's functional too, with volume controls on-ear, including the ability to mute audio entirely.
