Needed a decent headset that was kind of cheap , getting tired of my siberia v3's cutting my ears now.

 

Was thinking about Logitech G430 for like 39.99\

or maybe  Corsair - VOID SE Wireless Gaming Headset - Yellowjacket

for like 79.99

Majority of the time its not actually amazon selling you the item. Which means amazon is the middle man and there is normally some sort of warranty if said item doesn't work. 

 

I recently bought Plantronics Gamecons 788's off amazon "used" / Refurbished whatever u want to call it. I never have any problems with anything used I buy off amazon.

Friend has a pair of G430's. not bad but the mic is awful. They're comfortable but the sound quality is definitely what you pay for.

 

I've owned two pairs. The first one lasted me like 2 years (which is pretty good) but the mic was SHIT. The sound is meh. Its a nice thing to have if you travel because of its earphones swivel. I would go for something better like a Hyper x2. You will get more for your monies worth.

I personally avoid gaming headsets. Opted for a pair of studio headphones and a mod-mic! It pays off to do research instead of just opting for a "gaming" headset because it has the word "gaming" in it.

I'd highly recommend reading this: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/4nabvv/gaming_audio_and_you_why_995_of_gaming_headsets/

Go w/Audio Technica or Sennheiser IMO.

Get a used pair of ATH M50x's if possible and then an AntLion modmic (cheaper versions available w/out all the bells) to go with it.

OR

If you really want a headset w/mic, get a Sennheiser of some sort, their products are sturdy/top notch.  I've had the 350D before (unnecessary to get any soundcard) and it worked quite well/stood up to abuse.  But if you buy another gaming headset it will probably be as shit as you expect.  Hyper X headsets are basically trash but I'm not a fan of the closed style.
