WD_BLACK SN850 1TB NVMe SSD
More storage space is never a bad thing, especially as the size of games continues to grow. Although standard hard drives offer more storage for a lower price, the best SSDs, such as the WD_BLACK SN850, are much faster. That means two things: Faster install times and faster loading times.
We highly recommend asking before picking up this hard drive, though. You’ll want to make sure that your PC gamer can install it in their PC and that they have a space to slot it in. This drive uses the PCIe 4.0 connection standard, too, which is much faster than the previous version. That said, some PCs don’t support the standard, so it’s best to double check.
Steelseries Arctis Pro headset
We crowned the Steelseries Arctis Pro as the best gaming headset on the market three years ago, and that hasn’t changed. It comes in wired and wireless versions, both of which support a higher range of frequencies than what you’d normally find on a gaming headset. That allows players to pick up on the smallest details, which can make all of the difference in a heated firefight.
If it’s in your price range, we’d recommend picking up the wireless version. It comes with two batteries to keep the headset constantly topped off, and it includes a receiver with a suite of sound-tweaking controls. Most importantly, the wireless Steelseries Arctis Pro supports Bluetooth, allowing players to use the headset while gaming or listening to music on the bus.
