Hello people, I have been recently interested in gaming hardware so I am really new. I have narrowed down my choices to these two gaming headsets:

  1. CM storm 400 Ceres. Pro: it's cheaper, like $40, con: not super mega astonishing design, but still looks really cool.
  2. Razer Electra. Pro: looks really cool COn: $100

What is your experience with gaiming headsets?

It's better to buy your own headphones and a separate mic.
If clip-on mics aren't your things you can buy a ModMic

Unless you want to overpay, or buy because of the looks, it's always much better to buy very good headphones and a cheap mic.

I've got a corsair 1500, and it's ok, but hate the issue that it has static noise ... so don't get those xD

I've had the misfortune to try many over the years at lans and conventions. The ones I've got on with best and still have years later are my Saitek GH20. They are at the budget end of the market but I've found them to be the most comfortable and clear in and out. No jokes about their special feature thank you :P

I got my wife a Razer Carcharias for her birthday a couple months ago and she loves it. (She picked it out, not me. My intent is to get a Chimaera 5.1 for me)

Thanks for the heads up on the Antlion Modmic. I've been looking for a good mic to attach to my Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro and this seems to fit the bill. Now I just need to find a European reseller.

Get this all is good but i don't like the cheap plastic feel, cups are really comfortable but easily gets dirty, poor design with the hinge supports... it may break off.

Just my 2c worth ... The Logitech G930 Wireless Gaming Headset is amazing! I have one, bought it over a year ago and haven't regretted it once!

I use that one too. Only drawback: i use my computer more than 16 hours a day, and it got only 10-12h of battery life...

As for general speaking about Logitech: most of their stuff is reallu sturdy, i still use the same old mouse & keybord, bought them 4-6 years ago....

Logitech are amazing. My keyboard, mouse, headset and speakers have all been Logitech (various models) for quite some time, and I don't see that changing. They have great quality and perfect customer service with regards to warranties etc.

As for the battery life, the G930 comes with a convenient USB charge cable, that has a socket in it for the wireless receiver (so it doesn't take an extra USB on the PC).

Logitech G930. I love the fact that the reception range is quite big, it's wireless, it has 3 buttons and a volume scroll wheel.

Sennheiser or Audio Technica. Some of them are cheap, below $100; but if you want to use gaming headset, buy SteelSeries, they last longer than Razer.

I use a creative Fatal1ty headset. Its cheap and good.
Cons: USB only(If that matters to you), It might be tight around the ears(if you have a big head)
