Razer Kraken Kitty - popping and crashing games | Razer Insider
Skip to main content

Hiya, any advice would be great!


I got the headset around 3 years ago, and have been having the popping issue from day 1. Looked on the forums and saw its normal so didnt look to return as its the dream headset I always wanted.

It pops, then crashes some games such as Smite and Dead by Daylight, and my only fix is to change the port the headset is in. Then, itll just pop again a few days later.

Sometimes I've even had it where it pops back to back for a solid few minutes before I unplug it and change ports.

I don't want to change headsets as it's the only headset I could see myself using, but the popping is becoming unbearable to the point where im avoiding playing certain games.

I also dont have the RGB lights set or changed any settings as I believed that was the reason for the popping but apparently not.

Please help 😥

I had this issue with EVERY kraken headset , V1 7.1 V2 7.1 and the V3 hypersense….the only way I found to fix the V1 and V2 was as you said , unplugging and replugging it in. This never fixed the V3.

 

However there was a firmware update on the website which solved the issue , check to see if theres a firmware update for yours
