If you want a good general setup, get proper headphones, such as Sennheiser HD558s, and either a ModMic or desktop mic, such as Blue Yeti Pro.
Looking for new gaming headset. Suggestions?

If you're looking for a amazing gaming headphone, I got a AKG Q701's in black for sell. PM me if you are interested.
Thanks!

Careful with the microphone on those though - me and some friends had ours and tended to take them around packing them and taking where ever we were going. After awhile 3/4 either broke completely or just cut in and out with a ton of distortion. I don't know if it's a loose connection from taking the microphone in and out but on my warantee set I left the microphone out almost all of the time as I didn't really take them anywhere and they lasted a year, until the left ear cup went on them. They're really comfortable though too after the earpads get some wear into them.Originally Posted by hawkeye071292
Update: I actually picked up a pair of Siberia headphones. Best buy price matched amazon/newegg so I got them for like $109.

I am really liking these headphones, especially with the roll in mic. Since I dont use a mic very often anymore, it is really nice to be able to get it completely out of my peripheral vision when gaming.
Seems like Op's was more interested on gimmicky headsets

Plus I got the 2 year warranty with Best Buy. So if they break and they don't have more I get a chance at picking up a better one.

Thanks for the heads up! I was getting the feeling that that would be the weak part of them. Since I rarely use my mic, its going to be in most of the time anyway.Originally Posted by Nagello

They were a decent price, and honestly the bass is really good in them. Much better sound quality than my Logitech G930s were. Plus, they had me sold when I stuck my finger through the box and touched the ear cuff. They feel incredible, super light, and dont move or slip off.Originally Posted by musicPC
