So.. I need some opinions on what headset to get, before anybody says "Go headphones and a mic". I dont have room. I have used the zalman mic and dont like it. The separate cable on a modmic would annoy me and i would have to sleeve it, so I would prefer to not go that route.

 

That out of the way, I need some recommendations, I'm thinking Sennheiser PC350 SE, my walls are semi-thin and I dont want to annoy people with music or games, so I was thinking closed instead of open, otherwise I would go PC360. The thing I am not sure about is the fact that they are 150 ohms, not sure if my onboard audio (P8Z77-V LK) can handle that.

 

Just wondering, how much more audible is PC360 than something closed, like logitech g930s?

Unless you're driving the headset at deafening levels (really) the PC360's shouldn't be annoying people in different rooms. Also, a Blue Snowflake can be mounted on your monitor, so it doesn't take up desk space.

I considered it but due to how my monitor stand is and how far away my monitor is from me, that isnt really an option, sadly :\

The PC360 isnt as bad as you would think. Yea, other people may hear it, but not as loud as you might imagine.

Yeah I'm not really sure since my only experience with it was a grand total of 2 minutes, I just dont want people outside my room to have to hear stuff, like explosions, music, screaming friends on teamspeak, etc. Not really sure how loud it is.

You'll be fine. It's not going to wake your house up, maybe something like when you have earbuds too loud and some sound leaks out. That's about it.
