NIC or Cables?

[Jakubg]

Can you guys help me decide on a headphone solution for my setup?

I already have Sennheiser PXC 550's which I love to use. I can connect them to my PC with a AUX cable but it will only work for stereo output, not microphone input.

I want the microphone input for voice chat in games and it works well with the bluetooth on my phone (thru discord) and my laptop (albeit within very short range on my laptop).

I dont really want wired headphones now that the conveniance of wireless has consumed me.

Obviously I want to spend as little money as possible.

 

My options are;

a) Buy a wireless usb gaming headset (fairly expensive)

b) Buy a NIC with bluetooth and use my PXC 550's (probably a bit cheaper but I'll have to deal with Windows' bullsh*t method of handling bluetooth)

c) Buy a mic/stereo splitter (cheapest but have to deal with cables)

 

Which would you guys do if it were you?

If you think of another idea pls share

Or just buy a cheap Bluetooth USB dongle. They are like 9-15 bucks.
