Headphone help!

[capta1n_beans]

Hey guys i really need help with waht headphones I should buy for myself.I am looking for a gaming headset that can be used for something else, kinda like no compromises and not like the ones with crappy mids and WAY too much base, and also a good mic. I really know nothing about it and want to hear waht other people think!

 

My budget is at 250 ish max.

I dont think i need a sound card because my onboard is the SupremeFX from ASUS. (forgive me if im wrong)

 

I have been looking around and found the Audio Technica ATH-AG1 but I dont know if I should get it

 

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                       Thanks -Beans

Or spend more on the headphones and get a Modmic for ~$40. It is not in the way as much

Well for your mic options.
If all you are doing is VOIP, please don't look at anything past the Snowflake. 
If you are inclined to spend more the ATR2500 is an option, but the Snowflake is a better value.

The Snowball iCE is $40...

[zxcvbnmmssdh]

The Snowball iCE is $40...

Yes, but the Mod Mic is less in the way. Unless you are recording and need very good audio. Just get the ModMic

[cjeffcoatjr]

The point of microphones is to sound good...

[capta1n_beans]

should I keep my onboard though?

[EmoRarity]

should I keep my onboard though?

Yeah. 

[capta1n_beans]

Yeah. 

thanks

Sometimes, it needs to be reasonably. If you are just talking to friends, if they can understand you without trouble they will be fine. Unless making videos or streaming or something else that needs a VERY good mic, then get the snowball, if not get the ModMic. It too has very good sound quality

The thing is the size of a bouncy ball, and sounds WAYYYYY better than the ModMic. I think he would like better sound quality, and he said that he was fine with a desktop mic.

Ah, ya that would be better. It also keeps your face uncovered it you want to add a camera
