That which we call, Jonathan "Fatal1ty" Wendell. Probably the best known name in the computer world, the gamer that gave his trademarked name to an entire series of motherboards is back with a new
collaboration, this time it isn't Abit, it's Creative.

He is the most famous gamer in the world, having won 12 World Championships in five different games, and with a career resume that spans for many pages. During this time, he was seen as an icon for gamers around the world, someone to look up to, and his fame followed him and soon, Abit came with an indecent proposal, the use of his trademarked name on a new series of motherboards which represented the top products from their manufacturing line.

And he didn't just give his name out for somebody to use, he also advised to what modifications he would like to see on a top-of-the-line motherboard, and, guess what, his ideas were put into practice, many of the features he suggested being implemented into the motherboards. It took some time before his name appeared anywhere else other than game competitions, but now he has licensing deals with Auravision, XFX, Zalman and Creative. For the last ones, he has created a mouse and keyboard combo, and other products include a Zalman Fatal1ty cooler and a XFX 7600GT Fatal1ty video card. Also, in collaboration with Creative Jonathan Wendell, he has created the Fatal1ty Gaming Headset.

The headset has built-in 40mm Neodymium magnets, a frequency response from 20Hz to 20KHz, a 32 Ohms impedance with a highly sensitive noise-canceling microphone, high-purity Oxygen-Free Copper wires with gold-plated plugs, basically, it's all you need for a quality sound during gaming. The retail price for this model is of $79.
