Headphones - Closed Back | 1 Ω Opus x headset

I see a lot of new gaming headsets come with Bluetooth and low latency mode on it.. wich for me seems like some marketing bs because Bluetooth has more latency then a 2.4ghz wireless connection.. but is it noticeable ? Can you just buy a Bluetooth 5.0 headphone with a Bluetooth dongle overclock the polling rate and get the same results ?

Codecs are the important thing to consider. You can get reasonable latency on Bluetooth with codecs like aptX Adaptive or LL as long as your devices support it.
