I recently sold my Xbox and am getting back into PC gaming, and it has come to my attention that I don't have a headset..
I've been looking around on walmart and amazon and there's a million options to pick from.
My birthday is coming up soon and I'd like to get a headset, I'm just looking for something decent with a build in mic, probably $60 or under, it won't be for anything serious, just so people around me don't have to hear my noise lol.
With the xbox I had a set of Turtle Beach Xo Four's and they were just fine.
Thank you guys in advance!

Cloud Hyperx 2 or whatever it is if you're set on a headset

Drop the idea of a headset
Get some nice open back phones (for breathability and comfort) like the AKG 701/702/K7XX or Audio Technica AD-700x or similar
Then add a desktop or clip on mic
I have the AD700's and K7xx's and my brother has a few different headsets and he was amazed the difference in comfort in what I have vs what he has

Superlux HD681 with ModMic for that budget. How ever you would be a lot better with headphones like Sennheiser HD558/598.

Desktop mics are really unnecessary imo

Headset mics are very unnecessary
What do you have when your headset Mic breaks?
Headsets are for 12yr olds

you didnt answer the question nice dodge
using virgins doesnt insinuate a lack of knowledge on a product vs a 12yr old would for their lack of experience/age/etc

I use a regular headset with mic, too lazy to do separate mic. If I want good sound just run it through my audio system.
