You would be forgiven for not having heard of ThunderX3 – they are a subsidiary of case manufacturer Aerocool, with a distinct focus on the peripheral market. Today we are looking at the TH40 headset, notably equipped with LED earcups. Priced at just under the £50 mark, this headset faces stiff competition from the recently launched HyperX Cloud Stinger.

The LED earcups are certainly eye-catching, but ThunderX3 will hope the build quality and audio performance of the TH40 also lives up to its billing. In this review we go over everything you need to know about the TH40 before giving our final verdict.
