Creative has released the Sound Blaster GS3, a compact soundbar designed for desktop gaming setups, available for AU$63. The soundbar measures 41cm in length, allowing it to fit comfortably beneath most gaming monitors.
Designed with gamers in mind, the GS3 features an RGB strip along its base. Connectivity options include USB-C and Bluetooth, alongside a standard 3.5mm aux input. While not intended for audiophiles, the soundbar is described as a significant improvement over typical monitor speakers for its price point. A review noted that for a low-cost speaker, the GS3 delivers surprisingly good sound.
For those considering alternatives, the Creative Pebble Pro speakers, previously highlighted as a top budget choice, are currently on sale for AU$72.95, down from AU$99.95. However, these speakers are noted for their limited bass performance.
This release comes amidst ongoing sales events, with further deals on PC gaming hardware being tracked.
