Both earcups or only one?

Have you tried a different aux cable / different device's aux port?

It could be an issue with the USB or with the wires connecting the headset to the PC. I have the Hyperx Cloud II and am currently having a similar problem with popping noises and random microphone cut-outs. I think it's just getting old and the wires have been in a tangled mess for too long. I'll probably have to end up getting a new one at this point.

Don't use the usb cable. use the 3.5mm one. The usb have a crappy built in soundcard which is shit.
