Mic for gaming

[Im_Ben]

I'm planning to buy a mic, with a stand for it. I will only do gaming, not record music or anything, however, I do not want it to pick up every little click and clack from my keyboard and mouse. I don't want it to be too expensive. What should I get?

I've heard a lot of people complain that the yeti mics pick up everything though.

does it need to be a standing mic? as if you are not streaming, or music making than i wouldn't go that route as they can be expensive where i'm from

I would prefer if it was a standing mic, I currently plan to use headphones + mic. But I'm open for suggestions.

I use a snowball. i also have a mechanical keyboard with mx blues. for discord so my friends dont complain about noise I turned down the input sensitivity through discord and put my mic up to the side of my face facing away from the keyboard and while they may hear the keyboard sometimes no one complains and they used to complain a lot.

The snowball is a good mic, that’s the route I went with the shp9500 headphones
