It's also a handy alternative if you're not rocking an Nvidia RTX graphics or don't fancy loading your PC up with any extra software. What this diminutive dongle delivers over the competition is portability and flexibility across devices, operating systems, and hardware. Hopefully not often, which should leave your audio relatively unimpeded by AI clean-up. Even the smartest AI appears to struggle to discern you from the whirring of a dusty motor, but, then again, how often do you find yourself gaming for an extended period of time next to an operational vacuum cleaner. So is the ASUS AI dongle your best bet for clean audio output? Well, that all depends on where you plan on using it. The Asus AI Noise-Cancelling Mic Adapter will set you back £40 here in the UK, and I'm still tracking down availability and pricing in the US.Īt least Asus also offers its AI sound-busting tech within two headsets: the ROG Strix Go 2.4 and ROG Strix Go-and I'm sure we'll see it burst onto the gaming scene from there. Krisp is free for two hours per week, while RTX Voice is ostensibly a free download so long as you already have the hardware to run it. The only major downside to the Asus dongle is you need to actually buy the thing. This is how you enable RTX Voice on any Nvidia graphics card, and why you should. But once again this relies on your own device to run, as opposed to dedicated hardware. It's worth noting that Krisp, a software based AI noise-cancelling app, the same one integrated into Discord, is available across device, so can offer an alternative if you're not fussed on hardware. It even doubles up as a USB Type-C to 3.5mm jack adapter for those of us using a mobile phone sans headphone port. RTX Voice is significantly limited in function by its prerequisite (and unnecessary), GPU support, whereas the Asus dongle is multi-device-especially once you factor in the included USB Type-C to USB Type-A adapter. There's also the added benefit of multi-device use. The green team's app will see increased load on your PC, and while minimal, I still prefer none at all. That's unlike RTX Voice, the AI noise-cancelling software now bundled with RTX GPUs (and others with a handy workaround). As entirely standalone kit, you won't see CPU or GPU utilisation due to its running. For most low-decibel background noise, the AI dongle works exceptionally well with minimal voice clarity loss.Īnd that's pretty great considering the AI dongle doesn't require any of your PC's valuable resources in order to operate. That's not a real-life situation I can honestly say I end up in a lot, especially not one when I'm worried about whether my friends can hear me over Discord. That is to say, when I'm holding a hoover up to my face for as long as I can stand the stink. neat so hop on there if you're looking for folks to chat and play games with.While Asus' dongle may fall behind RTX Voice at times, that's usually only under extreme duress. Oh, and speaking of Discord: the RPS community Discord is p. I had a go and was told it made my voice unusually echoing (as opposed to usually echoing) but I've seen plenty of folks saying it's great for them, so hey! If you want to give it a go, look for the option in the Voice & Video section of Discord's settings. Krisp.ai is available as separate software to help all voice chat, but Discord rolling it in means you can easily enable it with the click of a checkbox. This month Discord added support for Krisp.ai's noise suppression tech, which similarly uses computers to try to reduce the amount of background noise you send out. Something that doesn't require a specific graphics card but does require specific chat software is the new noise-reduction tech in Discord. Fingers crossed? Shame it does nothing for AMD owners, though. While it's meant to only work with Nvidia's RTX graphics cards, canny tweakster David Lake has found that fiddling with some files can make RTX Voice work with a fair few older Nvidia cards too. Launched last week, Nvidia RTX Voice runs in such a way that it should work in loads of different voicecomm software. Nvidia say it even works on incoming audio, so your chatmates' noise should also sound reduced for you. Yeah it's a big mangled but mate there's a chuffing leaf blower right there - it's a technomiracle. The best Windows alternative is NVIDIA Broadcast, which is free. It processes all that noise and manages to filter out (almost) everything but the voice.
