“I’m excited to extend Team Liquid’s long standing partnership with HyperX. Their commitment to high-performance products, design, customization and comfort is why TL prefers HyperX headsets,” said Steve Arhancet, co-owner, Team Liquid. “Through HyperX’s support over the years, we have achieved great things together and they continue to support the long-term vision of our organization.”
“We've worked with HyperX since early 2007 as we've known their products are all extremely fast. When the hardware you use absolutely, positively has to be better than the competition, it's HyperX," said Alexander Muller, managing director, SK Gaming. “What started with super-fast and reliable memory for our PCs and notebooks has now shifted to headsets. We are eager to use them in our tournaments and can't wait to see what HyperX has next.”
