Casual and core gamers alike can agree that great sound is key to a truly immersive gaming experience. If you want better in-game audio without the bulk of traditional headband-style headsets, gaming earbuds can be less cumbersome.

Oftentimes, less costly too.

For example, Amazon is selling Asus ROG Cetra Gaming Earbuds for just $79 ($20 off).

This is the lowest price I've seen for these gaming-specific wireless earbuds in a while and one of the best gaming deals of the season.
