NZXT, a leading designer of computer hardware, software, and services for the PC gaming community, announces the NZXT Capsule, a high-quality USB Microphone designed for streamers and gamers to sound their best with ease.

The NZXT Capsule is a cardioid microphone that focuses on giving you high-quality audio while minimizing background noise. Cleanly designed to sit on your desk with one polar pattern to give you the best sound right out of the box and with no software needed. Allowing you to clearly communicate with your friends during intense gaming sessions or while you stream to your adoring fans all while sounding your best.



"We really wanted to focus on giving gamers and streamers what they truly need," says Johnny Hou, NZXT's founder and CEO. "That is why with NZXT Capsule there are no unnecessary polar patterns or software requirements for using. It is just an elegant microphone that simply plugs in and works."

Sold separately is a boom arm that has been specifically designed with the NZXT capsule in mind. Just simply detach the microphone from the USB stand and attach it to the boom arm.

NZXT Capsule Features
  • Designed for Gamers: A unidirectional cardioid polar pattern ensures you'll have minimal background noise. The internal capsule is tuned for speech in a gaming environment and optimizing vocal clarity while you're in the game.
  • High-quality Audio: Incredible analog-to-digital conversion technology ensures your voice will be the best in the lobby.
  • Simple and Rugged: No screws, washers, or fumbling to place the NZXT Capsule on a boom arm. Internal shock mounting relieves any worry of your mic bumping into your desk mid-game.
MSRP Pricing
  • NZXT Capsule: $129.99 USD
  • Boom Arm: $99.99 USD
Colors
  • Black & White
Availability

Looks suspiciously like the Razer Seiren X. I wonder if it's a collab like they do with AsRock for their motherboards.

I guess the Mic is a rebranded Razer and the Mic arm is a rebranded Blue Compass arm?

Now you get to install malware that collects your data and hogs system resources for your mic. Never again NZXT, never.

Agree, I have a NZXT H500i case (wanted Fractal Design but was not in stock at the time). The case itself is very good but the fan and LED controller software is horrible.
